Bro-litics; and other cool stuff like fighting.

In this episode we try to debunk some myths about the Chineses economy. Forward to 14min if the stuff before does not interest you. 

This week, we chat mostly about Zelensky in combat boots in the White House, how unpro both Trump and Zelensky handled the situation and what it means immediately for the shifting tides of global power dynamics. 

We chat without a plan about the German election. We will in coming episodes take aim at some of the many individual cock ups we mentioned here. 

As we tackle the other big Trump disappointments, we look a the big mess he made out Gaza - already one of the most horrendous places on earth - and the poorly handled USAID shutdown. 

We have been rather optimistic about Trump, thus far. But lately a few policies have been very disappointing. We make this a mini series of disappointments. 

note: we talk about fighting and gym first and tariffs later, skip ahead to minute 22 or so if our gym talk is not if interest ... 

Not the most coherent chat we've ever had, but we needed to digest the tech stock wipeout as Deepseek reveals some stunning operational details. 

We talk about Trump's inauguration, a bit, but more about the amazing authority that rests with POTUS. We also talk about the pharmaindustry and wonder how you can have capitalism and a funtioning pharma industry at the same time. Fred also predicts that the AfD will do very very well in the German elections. 

We digest Donald Trump's plans to take Greenland, invade Panama and annex Canada. We also take a look at Meta's discovery of free speech. 

Hope you enjoy 

We talk about the re-bound of the economy in Asia, the structural limits in Europe and the age of "FREE" electricity 

Hey there! As Jan has returned from Australia and Fred finished his surgery, we are back online and chat about Perth, Aus and Elon Musk. 

Cheers guys and thanks for following
