Mentor Sessions Ep. 085: Dr. Peter McCullough explains Fauci's diary, COVID-19 lab origins, mRNA vaccine safety, spike protein persistence, and the biopharma complex.

600,000 Americans may have died from COVID vaccine complications — more than the virus itself, according to Dr. Peter McCullough — and Fauci just pleaded the Fifth on all of it. This conversation breaks down what the diary revealed, why the lab origin was buried, and where the mRNA platform goes next.

Dr. Peter A. McCullough joins BTC Sessions to walk through Fauci's Senate Testimony, 1,100-page diary, the public-vs-private mask and lockdown contradictions, and the nearly million-dollar cash prize Fauci's staff engineered for him. You'll learn why McCullough believes SARS-CoV-2 is an engineered bioweapon, how his foundation found full-length spike protein and mRNA circulating three and a half years after injection, and what that means for the surge in 'turbo cancer.' You'll see the money trail through the biopharmaceutical complex — Gates, BioNTech, CEPI, Event 201, and the captured medical journals that refused to retract the fraudulent 'natural origins' paper. He also lays out the parallel research and wellness system he's building outside captured academia.

Mentor Sessions Ep. 084: James Check and Joe Consorti analyze the Bitcoin market bottom, on-chain data, the AI bubble, and Strategy's sale in this 2026 macro breakdown.

The Bitcoin bottom isn't confirmed — but James Check and Joe Consorti lay out exactly why $45K would break every precedent in Bitcoin's history and why 90% of the time price only goes higher from here.

In this deep-dive conversation you'll learn why the market has entered what James calls the "time pain" chapter, how the AI bubble rotation could hand Bitcoin its bottom, and why Strategy's massive sale quietly killed one of Bitcoin's biggest pieces of FUD. You'll see the on-chain data behind long-term holders now sitting on 84% of supply, the 8-model study James ran to estimate when the bottom ends, and a concrete framework for DCA during downturns instead of chasing wicks. Joe breaks down the macro backdrop — oil, the 10-year Treasury at 4.7%, a hawkish Fed, and why the AI trade unwinding sets up a renewed risk-on environment.

Mentor Sessions Ep. 083: Bob Burnett explains the Bitcoin hash rate decline, BIP-110 chain split, nation state mining, and why banks will mine block space.

Bitcoin's hash rate has been declining for nearly a year for the first time in 16 years — and Bob Burnett of Barefoot Mining explains why it keeps falling straight through the next halving. This is the mining reset almost nobody is pricing in.

In this conversation you'll learn why the big publicly traded miners quietly shed Bitcoin and pivoted to AI and data centers, why Bob believes financial institutions and nation states (Iran included) are the real next entrants — not energy companies — and why they'll mine for block space control rather than the coins themselves. You'll see how the BIP-110 (RDTS) activation at block 961632 in mid-August could trigger a chain split, exactly what miners and plebs should do before that block, and why the fight is really about Core's process and the SegWit discount, not just spam. Bob also breaks down the miner's trilemma, virgin Bitcoin premiums, and why the depths of despair is historically the best time to enter mining.

Mentor Sessions Ep. 082: Matt Odell and Matt Hill discuss AI model security risks, self-hosting infrastructure, open source vs frontier models, and Bitcoin's role in digital sovereignty in 2026.

AI's most powerful models are being quietly locked away by governments — and the cheap API access you're building your business on is a subsidized trap with an expiration date. Matt Odell and Matt Hill join BTC Sessions to unpack what's really happening at the intersection of AI, open source sovereignty, and Bitcoin freedom tech in 2026.

You'll learn why the frontier model subsidy era is ending and who gets wrecked when prices normalize, how Start9 runs an entire company on a $200/month plan (and why that won't last), what Odell thinks about the deepfake phishing attack that nearly fooled Matt Hill live on a Zoom call, and why the open source AI arms race may be humanity's last real shot at digital independence. You'll also see how the Start9 router and self-hosted security camera are the trojan horses that bring sovereignty tech to people who've never heard of Bitcoin.

Mentor Sessions Ep. 081: Peter St. Onge and Larry Lepard discuss Fed rate cuts in 2026, AI industry bailout risk, Bitcoin price outlook,
US debt debasement, and gold targets.

The Fed's hawkish pivot is already unraveling — and Bitcoin, gold, and silver are the first to price it in. Peter St. Onge and Larry Lepard break down exactly why Kevin Warsh's tough talk is a script, not a policy, and what that means for sound money holders in 2026.

You'll learn why Lepard believes rate cuts are coming before the midterms, why the AI industry is quietly lobbying for a defense-contractor-style bailout, and why the monetary debasement trade is nowhere near dead — despite what the financial press is saying. You'll also get specific price targets for Bitcoin ($180K–$200K), gold ($7,000), and silver ($200), plus an honest breakdown of Strategy/MSTR and Michael Saylor's evolving playbook. If you're trying to understand where macro is heading and how to position in sound money, this is the conversation.
