In this episode of The Shawn Ryan Show, Jeremy Ryan Slate—host of The Jeremy Ryan Slate Show and authority strategist—breaks down what he calls the “Roman pattern” and how empires collapse from within. Shawn and Jeremy examine the fall of Rome through the lens of monetary debasement, inflation, border failures, short-term political decision-making, and the erosion of trust in institutions. They explore the third-century crisis, black markets, gold hoarding, Diocletian’s price controls, Constantine’s currency reforms, and the shift toward a gold standard—drawing direct parallels to modern economic instability, executive power, and the warning signs of a declining superpower. This conversation dives deep into history, empire collapse, inflation, currency manipulation, and what it could mean for America’s future.
