Money & Wealth With John Hope Bryant

Explaining Capitalism: What It Is & What It Isn't

John Hope Bryant sits down with DeKalb County CEO Lorraine Johnson — a groundbreaking leader overseeing a $4.8 billion government operation that shapes housing, business, infrastructure, and opportunity for nearly 800,000 people.

From her roots in rural Alabama to running one of the most economically important counties in America, CEO Johnson breaks down how counties really work, how money actually moves, and why most people misunderstand power, wealth, and access.

They unpack:

• Why government is the largest business in the world
• How ownership — not income — builds real wealth
• The hidden systems behind housing, credit, and opportunity
• Why financial literacy is a civil rights issue
• And how discipline, not luck, changes generations

This episode isn’t about politics.
It’s about how the system really works — and how to win inside it.

In one of the most powerful conversations ever recorded on Money and Wealth, John Hope Bryant sits down with His Excellency Omar Sultan Al Olama — the world’s first Minister of Artificial Intelligence — for a visionary dialogue on leadership, technology, and the future of humanity.

From growing up in a startup nation to helping shape global AI policy, Minister Al Olama shares how the UAE is planning not just for tomorrow — but for the next 100 years. Together, John and Omar unpack how artificial intelligence is already reshaping jobs, power, education, economies, and human identity itself.

They explore why AI is not just technology, but infrastructure… why intelligence plus everything is the next gold rush… and why the choices we make today will define generations yet unborn.

This is not a tech interview.
This is a blueprint for the future.
