John PerkinsEvery podcast appearance, updated as new ones drop

Today on Two Mikes we hosted Mr. John Perkins, the author of the famous book called the Confessions of an Economic Hit Man, joined us for a discussion of the of that book which is a study of how to use the U.S. and other governments use propaganda and international lending organizations – like the World Bank and its sister organizations -- to create new international organizations that are backed by – at least -- the U.S. military and U.S. government and so are, in essence, the creatures of the United States and its economic goals. Mr. Perkins notes that all of this activity can be done with the legal framework and corruption laws which are in force at the time of the activity, and that it is meant to make large American companies richer and more powerful and also to create international companies that will grow rich and become an extension of America’s worldwide economic and political power. Mr. Perkins book Economic Hit Man was an extraordinary international best seller, going through multiple reprints and editions and remaining on many best-seller lists around the world for 70 weeks. In a short time – on 8 September 2026 -- Mr. Perkins will be publishing a new book, which will be called The Art of the Steal: Trump and the Economic Hitman Presidency. It will be published by Penguin Random House. Mr. Perkins now works as the Chief Economist at a major international company. That being so, he has been well positioned to follow U.S. national and international economic activities as they unfold in Trump’s second term. He has found that the way things work remains much the same as they were when his first book was published, but with the exception that much more money is being made and much more economic power accumulated. And that matches the goals of the program that Trump now stands in control of internationally; namely, to help the rich – which includes his family and friends -- and powerful to become more wealthy and more powerful. All told, Mr. Perkins gave the Two Mikes a riveting presentation. We we have asked him back for another program once his new book is published.

John Perkins' book, although being essentially ignored by the mainstream media, was recognized on 20 bestseller lists, including the New York Times . This is an extended broadcast of 48 minutes, but so important to understand what is happening now, around the world. In the book, John recounts his true-life story as he worked for one of the world's leading development companies, MAIN, Inc. During the 1980s, MAIN led the way in providing analysis and strategies for massive development projects throughout the world. Allied with the World Bank and the NSA (National Security Agency) the development projects were massive, and tied to U.S. giants like Haliburton and Bechtel. What makes these seemingly reasonable efforts to uplift the developing world the basis of a "confessional" is that they were designed to ensnare the nations into overwhelming debts, thereby forcing them to accommodate special resource development "deals" that benefited the "partners," leading to historic devastation of peoples, cultures and environments around the world. We hear about these effects each day in the news. In this interview, we focus on the overall impacts of development, and on a vision for a better world, to which John Perkins has dedicated himself at every level. I recommend that everyone read his book, so that we can know the roots of so many of the environmental catastrophes we witness endlessly and realize that these can be turned around, with knowledge, dedication, and a will to truly help humankind. From the Preface: John Perkins writes. . . "Economic hit men (EHMs) are highly paid professionals who cheat countries around the globe out of trillions of dollars. They funnel money from the World Bank, the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), and other foreign "aid" organizations into the coffers of huge corporations and the pockets o fa few wealthy families who control the planet's natural resources. Their tools include fraudulent financial reports, rigged elections, payoffs, extortion, sex, and murder. They play a game as old as empire, but one that has taken on new and terrifying dimensions during this time of globalization. I should know; I was an EHM.

Rundown In this episode, Mexie talks with John Perkins, former Chief Economist for MAIN, about his time as an economic hitman, furthering U.S. empire through economic imperialism. We talk about the links between the World Bank, IMF, private firms like Haliburton and Bechtel, and intelligence agencies like the CIA and NSA. John also discusses some insights from his new book about the shift in consciousness required to revolutionize our economy.

John Perkins is on a crusade to Transform Fear into Action to change your life and the World. John’s experience as an “economic hit man”, convinced developing countries to build huge infrastructure projects that put them in debt to the World Bank and other US-controlled institutions. Although he had been taught this was the best model for economic development, John came to see that this was simply a new form of colonialism. He now an ambassador to transform our failing Death Economy into a Life Economy. John’s latest book, Touching the Jaguar: Transforming Fear into Action to Change Your Life and the World, tells the dramatic story of how, when he was a Peace Corps volunteer, his life was saved by an Amazonian shaman who taught him to “touch the jaguar,” to change his reality by embracing perceptions that transformed fears into positive actions. This is a quote from the book, “‘Touching the jaguar’ means that you can identify your fears and barriers, confront them, alter your perceptions about them, accept their energy, and take actions to change yourself and the world.” John Perkins was chief economist at a major consulting firm. John has advised the World Bank, United Nations, Fortune 500 corporations, US and other governments and is the author of 10 books including, New York Times bestseller Confessions of an Economic Hit Man. The book has sold over 2 million copies and has been published in 35 languages.

' THE DEATH ECONOMY 'The big corporations were sucking resources from countries around the planet at an unsustainable rate. The driving goal of the corporations was to maximize short-term profits. CEOs were intent on increasing short-term stock prices, market share, or both without regard for the future. It was a system that was bound to fail, to kill itself—what economists would later define as a Death Economy.'
