The Revolution in Military Affairs: Artificial Intelligence || Peter Zeihan Aug 18, 2025

Show notes

AI is working its way into just about every aspect of modern life. I mean, who didn't fall for that video of the bunnies jumping on the trampoline. But artificial intelligence might not be the game-changer in warfare that you think it is...at least not in the short term.

The Revolution in Military Affairs: Recruitment || Peter Zeihan Aug 13, 2025

Show notes

Most of the conversations in this series will revolve around technology, but recruitment is a large component of keeping a military productive. We're not talking about the high school pull up competitions that the recruiters do, but more of the systemic ideology around recruitment itself.

Trump Trade Talks: Japan Gets a Deal || Peter Zeihan Aug 12, 2025

Japan is one of the few countries who has been willing to step into the batter's box and take whatever Trump throws at them. This time at the plate, they were tossed a 15% tariff on Japanese goods (with some big caveats).

Why Trump's Stance on Ukraine Has Changed - Part 1 || Peter Zeihan Aug 06, 2025

Show notes

It seems that the Trump administration might be listening to some classic rock lately, because his recent stance on Russia and Putin is awfully reminiscent of The Who's 1971 classic "Won't Get Fooled Again." Or maybe Melania just yelled at him.

Flooding has already claimed lives and destroyed infrastructure in Hebei, Beijing, and Tianjin. Over five feet has already fallen—more than an average year’s total rainfall and there is more on the way. There is more to this than just another bad weather forecast.
