The Year of the Cow - A Ryan Fair Podcast

Today: a live front-row seat to one of the most volatile flashpoints on earth — Israel vs. Iran — and nope, it’s not a rerun. If you thought global tension couldn’t hit a higher pitch… buckle up.

Hey, it’s Ryan Fair with Year of the Cow — and todaywe’re taking a break from the circus of domestic politics to look dead in the eyes of a foreign policy disaster in the making.

So buckle in, MAGA hats and moderate skeptics alike —because if we’re not careful, we’re about to watch America’s last chance atstrategic dominance get traded in for another forever war... in sandals.

This episode’s called: "Skull Drag Diplomacy andthe Bunker Buster Delusion."

Alright, folks—grab a seat, crack a canof Liquid Death or whatever caffeine-laced anxiety fuel you’re drinking today—
Because things just went from “tense” to “Star Trek battle stationmode” in the Middle East.

This week, President Donald J. Trumpstepped up to the podium—red tie straight, jaw locked—and dropped what can onlybe described as a “political powerbomb.”

Good evening, listeners!

In today’s episode: Israel’s bombing, Iran’s missiles, andDonald Trump’s Twitter diplomacy—aka: ‘I’m not in the war… unless it’s

trending.’ Think of it like a geopolitical reality show, hosted by a guy who once offered Putin a gig as mediator—because nothing says peace like asking a questionable ally to referee the fight.

Good evening! If you’ve ever wanted to see how fast a bromance turns into a full-on brawl, welcome to Israel vs. Iran: The Edition You Didn’t Ask For. Where preemptive strikes, vetoed assassination plots, and missile barrages are the new flirtation—right up there with awkward brunches. Buckle up—but don’t worry, we won’t all die in 10 minutes. Probably.

So apparently we’ve just decided as a species that ‘ColdWar: Desert Edition’ is the vibe now. Because here we are—2025—and Israeland Iran are still in a diplomatic version of Fight Club, except nobodytalks about it, but everyone keeps bleeding.

In the grand chess game of life and markets, everything canbe broken down into three lenses: the short-term, the middle-term, and thelong-term. Each one carries its own weight, its own rhythm, and its ownconsequences. And if there’s one thing I’ve learned—from battlefields toboardrooms—it’s that perspective is everything.
