The hosts conclude the episode with a prediction that the 2016 election winner will be a one-term president due to an impending economic collapse similar to 1857. They suggest that a "great" president, possibly Trump, will emerge in the 2020 cycle, following historical 40-year patterns. The show signs off with a montage of "bomb them" clips and a final reminder to support the show via Dvorak.org/NA.

The current economic state is characterized as a depression, noting that even professionals like lawyers are renting out their homes via Airbnb to make ends meet. The upcoming leadership change at the Federal Reserve is discussed, with Larry Summers and Janet Yellen mentioned as potential successors to Ben Bernanke. The ongoing "quantitative easing" is compared to the gold discovery of 1849 in terms of its impact on the economic cycle.

- **Published:** 2013-03-14

- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/495-big-mac-cheese/chapter/jean-claude-juncker-1913-war-comparison.md

Jean-Claude Juncker, Prime Minister of Luxembourg, reportedly warned that 2013 could mirror 1913—the year before World War I—where a period of perceived peace preceded a global conflict. The hosts link this to their "cycle theory" of recurring historical warfare and note that the statement was largely ignored by the American press.

### European Revolutions of 1848 and 40-Year Cycles

- **Episode:** [344: Cyber Master](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/344-cyber-master.md)
- **Published:** 2011-10-02
- **Time:** 17:43–21:33
- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/344-cyber-master/chapter/european-revolutions-of-1848-and-40-year-cycles.md

John C. Dvorak applies his 40-year cycle theory to the current global unrest, comparing it to the European Revolutions of 1848, also known as the "Spring of Nations." He traces a pattern of revolutionary fervor and market crashes through 1888, 1928, 1968, and 2008. The hosts suggest the "Arab Spring" terminology is a scripted fractal of these historical events.
