Thanks for posting.
What a great history lesson! Thank you!
What do you think of Peter Zeihan’s claims that both Russia and China are on the endangered list and on their way out?
Super impressive! Great to be live.
Nice interview
Great show but sure miss that intro music.
Dr. Frankopan preaches some questionable economics. He claims famines are always the result of poor planning, yet rails against the west's food production buffers because they result in uneaten food. Of course we produce more than we eat; that's a good thing.
He wants us to make better consumption choices based on our intuition and value judgements about the details of global supply chains, as if each of us could be an expert on the millions of inputs that yielded Marshall's shirt. Of course we can't be. So we pretend. We crow about palm oil because we heard some Dickensian story on NPR about that one issue, and we must outcompete the next progressive flaunting her social conscience.
