    The concept of a ‘community’ on the left is used to grab power and commit fraud. Sirens should sound every time they mention the word. Think about it.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Iran oil shock: will it force the world to re-think the future of energy?
Q: What should countries do now to increase resilience against energy security shocks?
Three broad steps: produce more energy domestically where possible and electrify more of the economy; use less energy through efficiency; and build resilience via strategic reserves, diversification of suppliers, and hardened infrastructure to withstand cyber and physical threats, all while recognizing the higher security premium societies may be willing to pay.
The Iran oil shock: will it force the world to re-think the future of energy?
Q: Have you done any back-of-the-envelope calculations on whether this oil shock speeds up or slows down the energy transition, especially toward non-carbon energy sources?
The trajectory is uncertain and depends on how traumatic the shock proves to be, with emerging markets potentially accelerating electrification and investments in clean energy, while some regions may revert to shorter-term fixes; overall, the long-run pace of the transition will hinge on policy responses and the scale of disruption.
The Iran oil shock: will it force the world to re-think the future of energy?
Q: Imagine tomorrow that the Strait of Hormuz is opened and normal trading resumes; how quickly would you expect the markets to normalize, and what would that imply for longer-term energy security policy?
If the Strait reopens and confidence returns, price pressures could ease sharply within weeks, but the underlying lesson is that shocks have lasting potential to push diversification, stockpiling, and domestic production higher, shaping longer-term policy even after the immediate crisis fades.
The rise of industrial policy - why governments are back in the business of business
Q: What is industrial policy today, and how does it differ from the past?
Industrial policy today centers on targeted, long-term interventions that aim to transform the structure of the economy, rather than merely fixing short-term market failures. It has expanded to include considerations of national security, geopolitics, and strategic dependencies, with governments acting more as investors and coordinators in some cases.
Your 'first time' can shape democracy: the psychology of voting
Q: Why is the design of polling stations and ballots so important to how people vote?
He argues that small design choices can shape comfort, headspace, and social connectedness, which in turn influence voting behavior and attitudes toward democracy.
