Financial Crash Expert Steve Keen: He Predicted the 2008 Crash, Now He Says Capitalism Failed - It’s Too Late! (Video)

In this 20 August 2026 published video, host Steven Bartlett talks with political commentator Konstantin Kisin and rebel economist Steve Keen who go head-to-head on the biggest questions facing the West: immigration, the debt crisis, climate change, Trump, China and the future of AI.
Kisin is a satirist, social commentator and author, best known as the co-host of the Triggernometry podcast and the author of ‘An Immigrant’s Love Letter to the West’. Born in the Soviet Union and now based in Britain, he has become one of the most prominent voices on free speech, culture and the rise of populism.
Keen is an economist, author and one of the most vocal critics of mainstream economic thinking. A former Professor of Economics, he is the author of several books including ‘Debunking Economics’ and ‘The New Economics: A Manifesto’, and is currently writing his upcoming book ‘How Economists Will Destroy Capitalism’. He is known for his work on private debt, financial crises and the failures of conventional economic models, and for correctly warning of the 2008 financial crash.
They debate:
- Why almost everything governments tell you about debt and borrowing could be wrong
- Whether a socialist government could actually be good for the economy
- Why AI could quietly strip away human free will
- Why Konstantin believes mass immigration is pushing the West toward civil unrest
- Why Steve thinks climate change, not politics, is the real threat that dwarfs everything else
