About this episode

Zoomer Schopenhauer discusses global politics, the economy, and the implications of the situation in Iran.

(CONTENT NOTE: I Do not endorse everything my guests do or say online or offline, I am a humble interviewer/content aficionado trying to find different and interesting points of view). On this episode of Content Minded, Zoomer Schopenhauer returns for a prescient interview on energy, economy, news and global affairs. In the first half we discuss the situation in Iran, what a prolonged closure of the Strait of Hormuz means for the global economy and the future of global politics, the importance of oil as the lifeblood of modernity, how the war in Iran could go, and a unique view into the mindset of Xi Jinping. In the full 3 hour podcast available on Patreon and Substack, we get into a bit about current British politics, what a society that no longer relies on infinite growth would look like, the discourse around the war in Iran online, and his research into the Libya uprising as a case study of “cowboy capitalism”.
