The Unlimited Hangout Podcast Ep #02 - Stargate Argentina In the second episode of The Unlimited Hangout Podcast, Whitney Webb and Mark Goodwin discuss their latest investigation into OpenAI’s Stargate Argentina data center and the man behind it Emiliano Kargieman. They discuss how Kargieman is a part of a close-knit group of Argentines sponsored by the American group Endeavor that have blurred the lines between Argentina’s tech sector and Silicon Valley. In addition, they note that his company Satellogic is working closely with Palantir and SpaceX to create a global satellite surveillance network that aims to soon “predict the future.” The discussion also covers the proposal for Stargate Argentina and how Emiliano Kargieman has suggested that OpenAI may not end up being the ultimate user of the center once built, due to an AI debt bubble. He further seems to suggest that the Argentine State will likely use it as it "digitally transforms" under Javier Milei into an AI-powered surveillance state. 0:00 Introductions 2:50 Discussion Overview 10:31 What is Stargate Argentina? 19:28 Who is Emiliano Kargieman? 26:00 What is Satellogic?

In the pilot episode of The Unlimited Hangout Podcast, Whitney Webb and Mark Goodwin discuss their latest investigation into Polymarket and how the company was born out of a desire to resurrect the US military's controversial Policy Analysis Market, also known as the Terrorism Futures Market, from 2003. Also discussed is the largely unknown background of Polymarket founder Shayne Coplan, the role of oligarch Peter Thiel in privatizing failed DARPA programs like the Policy Analysis Market, and how Coinbase helped sunset Polymarket's unofficial predecessor Augur after Coinbase's earliest employees poured money into Polymarket shortly after its founding. 0:00 Intro, Why A New Video Show, and Latest Piece Reactions 7:29 Brief History of Prediction Markets 18:57 DARPA, PAM, and Robin Hanson 32:07 Privatizing the Information Awareness Office 39:30 The Napsterization Model and Sean Parker 48:56 Shayne Coplan Before Polymarket 56:17 Joey Krug, Augur, Thiel Fellow and Founders Fund 1:05:52 Augur = Napster, Polymarket = Spotify Read Part 1 of UH's Polymarket investigation here: https://unlimitedhangout.com/2026/06/investigative-series/the-secret-history-of-polymarket-part-1/ Become a member of Unlimited Hangout to get early access to all UH content (videos, podcasts and articles) and participate in live Q+As with Mark and Whitney: https://unlimitedhangout.com/join/ Subscribe here, on YouTube, or elsewhere to help us fight AI impersonation of Whitney and other UH writers and to stop the slop!

Iain Davis joins Whitney Webb to discuss his forthcoming book, The Technocratic Dark State, which explores how the so-called “counter-elites” and tech billionaires behind much of the second Trump administration’s policies envisage a world remarkably similar to, and perhaps even worse than, that of the globalist oligarchs long reviled by Trump’s electoral base.
