What’s up, guys? Today I’m bringing you one of the most timely and thought-provoking episodes we’ve ever done. There’s no guest joining me in the traditional sense, but we are diving deep, breaking down the wild week on the global stage: the end of the 12-day war between Israel and Iran, Trump shaking up world politics and being nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize, all the way to the rise of socialism in New York, the Supreme Court rewriting deportation rules, and the explosion of AI tech that can literally create memories with your loved ones.
You’re going to hear my real-time analysis and deep dive into realpolitik – what actually drives world order, how power really plays out behind the headlines, and why ideology is rarely the main force moving the pieces. Producer Drew is right here with me, challenging the takes, asking the questions you’re already thinking, and making sure we don’t shy away from the tough conversations.
