Here's my notes from the interview itself:
Russell Brands children are going to grow up without their father because a mentally ill woman claimed she was raped nearly 20 years ago, after having consensual sex and admittedly eating his ass.
She reported these supposed crimes to the media, NOT the police.
This should be a wake up call to men everywhere. Something has to change.

My key takeaway: In today's market, raising capital is not the achievement. Raising capital without materially damaging shareholder value is. #FCM for me has done just that.
Carry on reading (itโs a long one folks):
@FirstClassMetal - A Funding Masterclass in One of the Toughest Small-Cap Markets in Years
Whilst much of the market will focus on today's headline that First Class Metals PLC (#FCM) has secured a ยฃ1 million funding facility, I believe the real story is how they've done it.
We are operating in arguably one of the most challenging financing environments for UK small caps since the COVID-era market dislocation.
Risk capital remains constrained, retail participation is subdued, liquidity across LSE, AIM and Aquis continues to be thin, and many junior resource companies have found themselves trapped in the familiar cycle of:
- Deeply discounted placings
- Broker-driven dilution
- Endless warrant overhangs
- Increasingly punitive funding structures
- Value destruction for existing shareholders
Against that backdrop, today's announcement stands out. Rather than going back to the market for another heavily discounted equity raise, First Class Metals PLC has secured up to ยฃ1 million through an unsecured facility designed to bridge the period until expected receipts from its #nGRND Inc. Kerrs Gold transaction.
Bravo I say ๐๐ผ
The board has also stated its intention to repay the facility in cash from anticipated nGRND payments rather than through further equity issuance.
That distinction matters.
Many small-cap management teams currently have little choice but to issue significant quantities of stock at depressed valuations simply to keep projects moving forward. Existing shareholders are diluted, warrant overhangs increase, and companies often find themselves caught in a repeating cycle of funding rounds that create little long-term value.
FCM's approach appears materially different.
Only months ago the company successfully raised capital at 3p to advance its growth strategy.
Now it has secured a further ยฃ1 million facility whilst maintaining momentum at Sunbeam and awaiting the next stage of value crystallisation from the nGRND agreement.
That demonstrates something increasingly rare in today's market:
Access to capital without relying solely on dilutive equity issuance.
The wider reality is that UK small-cap sentiment remains fragile. Numerous LSE, AIM and Aquis companies are trading near multi-year lows despite commodity prices, technology adoption, and sector fundamentals often improving. Investors have become far more selective and funding providers far more cautious.
In that environment, capital itself becomes a competitive advantage.
What impresses me most is that today's funding is not being used simply to survive.
It is being used to continue exploration momentum at the Sunbeam project following what the company describes as exceptional recent results, ensuring programmes continue without interruption while expected nGRND proceeds are finalised.
For me and investors, that's an important distinction.
There's a world of difference between raising money because you have to and raising money because you want to accelerate.
Whether you're bullish on the resource sector or not, securing ยฃ1 million of non-traditional funding in today's market, while sitting on anticipated future receipts from a previously announced transaction, is no small achievement.
In a market where many juniors are fighting simply to remain funded, First Class Metals PLC has demonstrated financial creativity, strategic discipline, and an ability to keep advancing its growth agenda.
The market may take time to recognise it. But in the current UK small-cap environment, this looks like a cracking piece of corporate finance.

๐๏ธ @nGRND_io token launch announced for 17th November at 13:00 UTC.
Under its published protocol, #nGRND aims to acquire at least 1oz of preserved in-ground gold for every 35,000 #NGRND tokens.
@FirstClassMetal has an agreement with @nGRND_io covering up to approximately 77,000oz of gold at its Kerrs Gold Project, with a contract value of a minimum US$10.64m.
โก๏ธ Under the agreement, #nGRND is required to pay 60% of the contract value by 30 June 2027.
๐ฅ Todays news around securing funding to support Sunbeam exploration is fantastic.
.
The recent exploration results give #FCM compelling reasons to continue advancing the property, with the new visible gold occurrence northeast of the historic Roy shafts and progress at Pettigrew providing clear priorities for follow-up work.
๐ก Giving #FCM the funding flexibility to advance Sunbeam while bridging the timing of those expected receipts.
