Mentor Sessions Ep. 050: Iyah May Risks It All With Karmageddon - Exposes Big Pharma, Fiat Inflation, Goes Independent, and Gets Live Orange-Pilled on Bitcoin

What if a trained doctor walked away from medicine, signed a major label deal—then blew it all up with one fearless song calling out Big Pharma profits, man-made viruses, corrupt institutions, geopolitical hypocrisy, and runaway fiat inflation? Australian artist Iyah May did exactly that with her viral hit Karmageddon, facing an ultimatum from her manager, parting ways with her label, losing friends and family support—yet gaining millions of awake fans desperate for an authentic voice refusing to stay silent.

In this raw Mentor Sessions interview on the BTC Sessions channel, Iyah opens up about choosing artistic integrity over security, her leap from med school to music in New York, the personal toll of truth-telling during Covid, and why cancel culture is finally crumbling as art reclaims the cultural battlefield. She unpacks Rockefeller's pharmaceutical takeover, why modern medicine treats symptoms for profit instead of root causes, the healing power of sunlight, real food, and decentralized health—and how fiat inflation fuels fear, short-term thinking, and cultural decay.

Fresh from rubbing shoulders with Bitcoiners in El Salvador, Iyah gets convincingly orange-pilled live on air, discovering Bitcoin as the ultimate tool for agency, sound money, and escaping centralized control. If you're stacking sats while questioning the system, this conversation bridges music, health freedom, and Bitcoin sovereignty in a powerful white pill for low-time-preference living. Check out her latest single Good Citizen and stay tuned for the upcoming album!

Mentor Sessions Ep. 049: Jeff Booth vs Simon Dixon: Bitcoin's Abundant Future or Total Dystopian Nightmare?

What if Bitcoin's promise of a deflationary free market utopia crushes the global surveillance state—or traps 95% in a multipolar prison of programmable money, elite control, and endless chaos? In this must-watch, visionary Jeff Booth clashes with geopolitical expert Simon Dixon on whether Bitcoin enforces abundance for all through unstoppable privacy tech like Fedi and Nostr, or merely offers an escape hatch for the few amid dollar demise, AI weaponization, and financial industrial complex capture. From Venezuela's turmoil and Iranian protests to UK thought police and precious metals surges, they expose how centralized custody in ETFs and treasury companies co-opts Bitcoin, risking chain forks and surveillance nightmares. Jeff's optimistic blueprint for agency-driven freedom battles Simon's stark warnings of hybrid systems where the masses "own nothing and be happy," tying into Bitcoin self-custody, decentralized mining, and circular economies as your shield against fiscal dominance and currency wars. If you're stacking sats in a Bitcoin-only world, this debate reveals why privacy isn't optional—it's your path to sovereignty or subjugation. Don't miss the white pill vs. black pill showdown that could redefine your Bitcoin strategy!
