I love the interactions and knowledge Chad Scott and Mr. Global bring to the table. Nat Towsen seems to get out over his skis quite a bit, particularly when it comes to Israel and what I can only describe as veiled antisemitism, but his wit adds to all other topics. Overall I enjoy listening.
At first, I really liked this podcast but the more I listen to it the more irritating the comedian/host becomes. He constantly interrupts the other two experts with his banter, which he thinks is funny, but it just gets in the way of what really needs to be said. Fake quiet him down the podcast would be great.
Such a great podcast but we need more episodes a week and Nat need to stop interrupting and going on and on. He is a good host otherwise.
This podcast has some severe potential. Unfortunately, the third member of the podcast the “every man” who asks the questions of the experts is problematic. He drips his personal agenda, so heavily as to detract from the discussion. Super bummed as I follow Mr. Global on Facebook and I would like this podcast to work out. Perhaps I’ll come back to it when they get a new third number.
Great job challenging Adam Smith ! Amazing how 350 K from AIPAC turned into a victim

A geopolitical briefing that blends energy markets, military strategy, and policy analysis with a sharp, accessible panel format. Episodes typically unpack how oil dynamics, sanctions, and alliance politics influence real-world decision-making, using historical context and real-time events to explain risk, incentives, and potential endgames. The show stands out for its three-host panel—an energy expert, a military policy specialist, and a writer/comedian—that keeps complex topics approachable while maintaining blunt, data-driven takes on current tensions and their economic fallout. Listeners can expect rigorous analysis balanced with humor and a willingness to challenge conventional narratives.
Noteworthy is the willingness to explore cont... more
