This week, I appeared on interviews with Mario Nawfal and Coffee and a Mike. First, Mario and I discussed the escalating situation in the Middle East, including strikes on Iranian and Russian energy infrastructure, disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz, unusual oil market behavior and paper price manipulation, sulfur shortages and their industrial impacts, and the broader risks of economic shocks from these conflicts. Second, Dave Collum, Mike Farris, and I discussed the Tyler Robinson story as a major Rorschach test exposing inconsistencies and narrative control, widespread institutional distrust post-2020, vaccine skepticism, fifth-generation warfare dynamics, and the need for personal resilience amid geopolitical and economic uncertainty. Both interviews can be viewed below!
