    At its height, Ming China was one of the most powerful states on Earth. Its cities bustled with merchants and scholars, its goods travelled across continents, and its treasure fleets sailed as far as East Africa and the Arabian Peninsula. At the heart of this vast empire stood the Forbidden City- a spectacular symbol of imperial authority.But prosperity bred corruption, power created enemies, and rebellion threatened the dynasty from within. In this episode, Dan heads to Beijing to explore how an impoverished peasant founded a dynasty that ruled China for nearly three centuries and how war, political crisis, rebellion and environmental catastrophe ultimately brought it down.

    1920 bedouinsSaudi Kingdom Fragility And Houthi Rise Discussed In Autumn LondiniumGaius and Germanicus: Continuing their dialogue at the Londinium wine bar, the hosts evaluate the impending collapse of Saudi Arabian legitimacy. Germanicus emphasizes that the House of Saud's authority remains inherently fragile, historically dependent on buying tribal loyalty and maintaining guardianship over Mecca and Medina. Citing the fourteenth-century historian Ibn Khaldun, Germanicus observes that urban luxury and extravagant wealth have rendered Saudi leadership soft and decadent, contrasting them sharply with the formidable North Yemeni Houthi insurgents. Described as authentic ghazi holy warriors, thirty-five million Houthis pose an existential threat to seventeen million native Saudis, whose society relies heavily on millions of disenfranchised immigrant laborers. Meanwhile, American imperial leadership displays a profound ignorance of foreign cultural realities and historical precedents, ignoring Egypt's disastrous 1962 military campaign in North Yemen. Attempts by Riyadh to form defense pacts with Pakistan and Turkey are deemed ineffective, as neither nation possesses the logistical capacity or willingness to deploy troops into Yemen. With American military assets retreating across the Persian Gulf and Washington granting strategic advantages to China, the Saudi regime faces imminent destabilization without external salvation. Consequently, sacred cities like Mecca and Medina face severe vulnerability as Saudi rulers fail to secure reliable military protection. (2)

    1955In The Londinium Chronicles, Gaius (John Batchelor) and Germanicus (Michael Vlahos) explore the intersections of Roman history and modern geopolitics.Germanicus and Gaius Debate American Strategy In Rainy Autumn LondiniumGaius and Germanicus: Gathered at their expanded Londinium wine bar on a rainy autumn evening in 92 AD, the hosts reflect on municipal regulations, building codes, and upcoming gladiator games before analyzing modern geopolitical parallels. The discussion focuses on American imperial strategy, drawing comparisons between potential U.S. diplomacy toward Russia and Richard Nixon's historic opening to China during the Vietnam War. Germanicus explains that the U.S. has exhausted its initial policy options regarding the Ukrainian conflict, leaving Washington inclined to offer Russia economic incentives and territorial concessions to secure a peacetime transition. Such an agreement could facilitate a 40 percent drawdown of American troops in Europe, shift strategic burdens onto a stagnant European Union, and enlist Moscow as a mediating influence regarding Iran. In exchange, Vladimir Putin seeks a neutral, military-free Ukrainian buffer state to guarantee Russian security against European aggression. Reflecting on historical precedent, Gaius cites Queen Boudicca's catastrophic accommodation with Rome, warning that financial and development deals with an empire inevitably erode national sovereignty. However, Germanicus notes that unlike ancient Rome or modern peer competitors, contemporary America lacks the military doctrine, industrial capacity, and political fortitude required to prevail in prolonged peer conflicts. Consequently, Germany and Japan remain national security satellites following decades of post-war subjugation. (1)

    1900 PEKING POSTCARDChinese Strategy And Global Energy Crises Examined In Autumn LondiniumGaius and Germanicus: In the final segment from their Londinium sanctuary, the hosts discuss managing formidable adversaries through accommodation rather than direct confrontation. Drawing an analogy to Godzilla, Germanicus argues that intractable opponents like Russia or the Houthis are best neutralized by turning them into non-hostile allies. The hosts then analyze Beijing's foreign policy terminology, specifically the phrase "constructive strategic stability" crafted by China's Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Germanicus highlights that while this diplomatic rhetoric appears non-threatening, it represents a calculated strategy to restrain American aggression while securing vital economic interests. Specifically, China requires four million barrels of oil daily and demands an end to trade disruptions surrounding Iranian petroleum. Meanwhile, Ukraine faces financial collapse, requiring twenty-five billion dollars immediately to survive daily war expenditures of two hundred million dollars. Germanicus asserts that Washington will ultimately grant Russia its strategic demands, enabling joint economic exploitation of Ukrainian energy reserves and restoring Russian gas supplies to an energy-deprived Europe. As Germany reopens coal plants amidst skyrocketing domestic fuel prices, President Xi Jinping holds unprecedented leverage over the American emperor. The episode concludes with gladiators arriving in Londinium with exotic beasts as the Roman orchestra plays for the Friends of History Debating Society. (3)

    With Presidents Xi and Trump expected to meet in the United States this week, Will Bain looks back on the history of trade between the two great nations. It's always been fraught with controversy but there's also been a need or desire to get along. President Nixon was the first to visit China in 1972 and spoke with passion about the possibilities for the future between them. Trade then grew quickly but it became very one sided as China developed as an industrial nation. There have been several attempts to curb its dominance but cheaper production also meant cheaper goods for consumers. Chad Bown, senior fellow at the Peterson Institute joins Will to assess how they have attempted to strike the right balance.

    AI data centers are expanding across America, but who pays the bill? While Washington frames artificial intelligence as a critical race with China, Big Tech companies push for new AI regulations as local communities confront rising electricity demand, grid expansion, water use, and massive infrastructure costs. In this episode of The P.A.S. Report Podcast, Professor Nick Giordano pulls back the digital curtain on the physical AI boom. Beyond consumer tools like ChatGPT, artificial intelligence is reshaping military power, intelligence, medicine, cybersecurity, and global competition. But the AI race also raises serious questions about regulatory capture, government surveillance, Fourth Amendment protections, and whether taxpayers and ratepayers will subsidize the infrastructure required by trillion-dollar technology companies. Discover why China's Communist Party fears AI-driven "cognitive warfare," why major AI companies are calling for greater federal regulation, and what a free-market framework could look like if hyperscale data centers had to finance their own energy needs while protecting local ratepayers and communities. What You'll Learn in This Episode: The U.S.-China AI Race: Why artificial intelligence now shapes military, economic, technological, and geopolitical power. The AI Regulation Battle: How regulatory capture could protect established Big Tech companies while making it harder for startups to compete. Government Surveillance and AI: How machine-speed analysis could expand government profiling and raise serious Fourth Amendment and due-process questions. AI Data Centers and Electricity Costs: Why hyperscale data centers could consume a major share of U.S. electricity and place new demands on local grids. A Free-Market Data Center Framework: How dedicated energy generation, SMRs, natural gas, water transparency, ratepayer protections, and enforceable community benefits could change the economics of the AI boom.

    Today a look at equity market divergences in evidence on Friday as many stocks were lower, perhaps on the fresh rise in bond yields, while many large cap and momentum stocks did well on the day and are off to a strong start this week. Elsewhere, USDJPY is the critical focus in FX, there is plenty to discuss on the geopolitical front, both in terms of oil supply risks and the Trump-Xi summit set for Thursday and much more. Today's pod hosted by Saxo Global Head of Macro Strategy John J. Hardy. Links As we look at high petrol and record diesel prices in recent days, the WSJ covered the risk of a US refined product export embargo, how it would work and the potential price impacts. WSJ does a more than 30-minute deep dive on North Korea's secret US work force. Remarkable stuff. On the headlines trumpeting Saudi Arabia's quitting mBridge, China's cross-border currency platform, apparently there may far less of geopolitical import. Consider coverage on X from Endgame Macro and Luke Gromen as well as the most thorough take from Izabella Kaminska.  Read daily in-depth market updates from the Saxo Market Call and the Saxo Strategy Team here.

(DJOW) Follow us on Instagram @pebcakpodcast   Please share this podcast with someone you know!  It helps us grow the podcast and we really appreciate it!   Simple 6 signup link https://simple6.co/r/CFUR98   Zero Data Retention is a contract term, not a law of physics - and the first CISO who finds that out the hard way is going to get fired for it. https://openai.com/index/navier-stokes-solution/ https://www.axios.com/2026/09/08/openai-math-solution-navier-stokes-credit https://www.rubrik.com/company/newsroom/press-releases/26/rubrik-unveils-code-guardian https://www.tenable.com/blog/microsofts-september-2026-patch-tuesday-addresses-964-cves-cve-2026-81963-cve-2026-85880 Chamath predicted on All In that some poor CISO or CIO gets fired in the next few months for trusting a frontier lab's ZDR agreement, and Chris thinks that prediction ages well. ZDR promises no storage, no logging, no training - but it's best effort, enforced by contract language instead of a technical security boundary, and OpenAI just admitted that while unlikely, it cannot rule out that de-identified data from product usage helped improve the models behind its Navier-Stokes result. Worse, the legal bar is lower than email: a warrant gets your inbox, a subpoena gets your prompts, and you may never know. Ben's CISO take: the real problem isn't the frontier model you let in the front door - it's the vetted software that quietly became AI-enhanced after you accepted the risk. Excel with Copilot bolted on is Clippy on steroids. Can you disable it, can you cancel, can you get a refund, and what's your recourse when the vendor can't tell you where your data went? The flip side is real upside: Rubrik's new Code Guardian points a Claude Mythos 5 harness at an air-gapped copy of your repo and chains small, unremarkable findings into validated attack paths - three CVSS 3.0s become a 9.8. That same AI-assisted discovery is why Microsoft shipped 974 CVEs in a single September Patch Tuesday, and why "patch for patch's sake" is officially dead. Is the cure worse than the disease when the fix breaks your ERP?   An Anthropic researcher quit after six weeks at Anthropic and three years in pretraining, said AI could kill us all by 2030, and Chris is here to say the emperor has no evidence. https://www.cnbc.com/2026/09/09/anthropic-researcher-quits-ai-safety.html https://www.forbes.com/sites/siladityaray/2026/09/09/anthropic-alignment-lead-warns-ai-could-kill-all-humans-as-researcher-quits/ Jacob Coxon's resignation thread hit 70 million views, Anthropic's own Alignment Science Lead Evan Hubinger publicly agreed with the >10% extinction estimate, and Congress started drafting. Chris isn't buying it: a whistleblower produces evidence a company tried to bury, and Coxon produced conjecture. Every doomer prediction so far has missed - no mass AI job losses, no water crisis, no energy apocalypse - and the scariest thing frontier agents have actually done is break into another lab to cheat on a test, which is high school antics, not an extinction event. Ben wants the smoking gun: what spooked you, what's the roadmap from lost agent control to dead planet? Both hosts land on human-in-the-loop as the real backstop: Robinhood makes Chris confirm an agentic trade three times, and poisoning a water plant still runs into a dozen downstream checks and someone eventually testing the water. Meanwhile the robots at the Chinese Robot Olympics can't stop running or climb stairs. The more likely motive is regulatory capture - write the RFP, win the deal, then pull the ladder up on open-weight competitors while China ignores the pause entirely, exactly like it ignored Paris while firing up a coal plant a week. Same playbook as Uber lobbying for a human in every driver's seat. AI is a nail gun, not an emerging god.   Dad Joke of the Week (DJOW)   Find the hosts on LinkedIn: Chris - https://www.linkedin.com/in/chlouie/ Ben - https://www.linkedin.com/in/benjamincorll/

    Xi Jinping is known to be a ruthless leader. In the last five years alone, China's richest man, Jack Ma, China's defence minister and the country's foreign minister have all abruptly disappeared - some never to be seen in public again. Millions of Communist officials have been purged since Xi came to power. But one man was thought to be untouchable: the head of China's military forces, Zhang Youxia. A childhood friend of Xi's, Zhang was allowed to stay in his post, even as other military officials were disappearing. That is, until he, too, was suddenly gone. Celia Hatton investigates why Zhang was purged and looks inside and outside China for answers. She discovers there's a kind of pattern that dictators and autocratic rulers use to hold on to power. And this, she argues, can be a useful tool in predicting global military aggression.

The meeting comes at a time when tech leaders are raising alarms over rapid artificial intelligence development, and lawmakers are debating how to manage catastrophic risks without falling behind geopolitical rivals like China. Michael Allen, Managing Director at Beacon Global Strategies, joins the Rundown to discuss what to expect from the Trump-Xi summit, the AI debate, critical minerals, and how military intelligence sharing factors into the relationship. Later, Congressman Jay Obernolte (R-CA), Chair of the bipartisan House Task Force on AI, joins to unpack whether Congress can realistically regulate artificial intelligence and why he remains an "AI optimist."

This move follows explosive investigative reports covering hidden casualties in the war in Iran, AI-generated intelligence blunders that nearly triggered a broader conflict, and military tech leaks to China.

President Nixon was the first to visit China in 1972 and spoke with passion about the possibilities for the future between them.Trade then grew quickly but it became very one sided as China developed as an industrial nation. There have been several attempts to curb its dominance but cheaper production also meant cheaper goods for consumers. Chad Bown, senior fellow at the Peterson Institute joins Will to assess how they have attempted to strike the right balanceThanks to the Presidential Libraries of President Nixon and President Reagan for archive material.(Photo: A staff member wearing a face mask walks past US and Chinese flags set up before a meeting between US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen and Chinese Vice Premier He Lifeng at the Diaoyutai State Guesthouse in Beijing, China, 08 July 2023.

In the last year, Filipinos have put up five times as many rooftop solar panels as the previous ten years combined. Installation companies are struggling to keep up with demand.In Pakistan, where the boom started earlier, solar power has reached every sector of the economy from the textile industry to farming. Solar has helped Pakistanis weather the current energy crisis and reduced the country's reliance on imported fossil fuels.The Climate Question Host Jordan Dunbar talks to Filipino climate journalist, Jhesset Enano, and Pakistani energy analyst, Zeeshan Ashfaq, from the Renewables First think tank in Islamabad.Producers: Jordan Dunbar and Melanie Stewart Smith Sound Mix: Tom Brignell and Dafydd Evans Editor: Simon Watts

    CAPTION 1900 BAKU.California Coastline Destruction And Economic ShiftsJeff Bliss highlights severe coastal erosion along Southern California beaches during El Niño storms, noting how homeowners unsuccessfully battle nature despite strict Coastal Commission permit restrictions. Fuel prices in California have reached record highs, with low-grade gasoline exceeding six dollars per gallon and diesel climbing over eight to ten dollars, forcing gas stations to update tote boards. Meanwhile, Mayor Karen Bass discussed jurisdiction confusion between state and city lands during the Pacific Palisades fire. In Las Vegas, the old Royal Resort was demolished to make way for a parking lot. Furthermore, major entertainment companies like Paramount and tech firms are exiting California for business-friendly states like Tennessee. (1)Navigating Canada Trade Relations With AmericaConrad Black examines Canada's evolving trade dynamics following the Prime Minister's address to the European Parliament advocating for broader international partnerships. While expanding trade with Europe is positive, Black emphasizes Canada's deep economic vulnerability, given that nearly half of its GDP is tied to trade with the United Statescompared to just three percent for America. President Trump's rhetoric suggests America could produce goods domestically, threatening Canadian market access. To maintain competitiveness, Black supports internal economic reforms, such as reducing federal civil service numbers, offering corporate tax cuts, and bolstering industries like filmmaking. Ultimately, Canada must expand global trade while maintaining strong American relations. (2)Congress Must Aid Fed Against InflationVeronique de Rugy argues that the Federal Reserve cannot defeat inflation solely by raising interest rates without fiscal assistance from Congress. Higher interest rates increase national debt service payments, which have surged from $250 billion to over one trillion dollars, fueling further inflation through government borrowing. Drawing historical parallels to Paul Volcker in the 1980s, she highlights how monetary tightening requires legislative spending cuts and structural tax or Social Security reforms. With the US debt-to-GDP ratio now exceeding 100% and the Social Security trust fund facing depletion by 2032, Congress must exercise fiscal responsibility rather than relying on endless borrowing. (3)Inflation Drives Divided Spending In PennsylvaniaJim McTague shares observations on inflation while traveling across Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, illustrating a bifurcated K-shaped economy. High gasoline prices, averaging over $4.20 to $4.39 per gallon, are heavily squeezing lower-income families and reducing convenience store spending. Conversely, wealthier residents and affluent tourists continue spending heavily at specialty venues, such as Groff's butcher shop in Elizabethtown and boutique stores in Lititz. While local meat suppliers and pretzel shops report booming demand, even prosperous shoppers are beginning to display subtle penny-pinching habits on expensive goods like artisanal chocolates, reflecting widespread pressure from sustained energy costs. (4)Borgotaro Celebrates Porcini Mushrooms And CultureLorenzo Fiori explores Borgotaro in the Italian province of Parma, calling it the capital of porcini mushrooms owing to its rich forests, varying altitudes, and unique microclimate. He describes local culinary highlights, recommending pairings of dark and light porcini varieties preserved in olive oil alongside authentic Parmigiano Reggiano cheese, Parma ham, and ciabatta bread. Fiori highlights government initiatives encouraging travelers to visit smaller historic towns to relieve over-tourism pressures in major cities like Rome and Florence. Despite recent hot weather across Europe, localized late-afternoon thunderstorms, high humidity, and a rising moon have produced optimal conditions for a plentiful mushroom harvest. (5)Sudan Conflict Faces Foreign Power InterferenceHussain Abdul-Hussain details the ongoing civil war in Sudan between General Burhan's Sudanese Armed Forces(SAF) and the Rapid Support Forces. Foreign powers are actively influencing the conflict; Turkey supports the SAF through Muslim Brotherhood ties and drone strikes launched from Egyptian airfields. At the UN Security Council, the United States, France, and Britain are advocating for an expanded, nationwide arms embargo. However, Russia and China oppose the measure, with Russia eyeing strategic Red Sea port access and gold exports. With neither side capable of controlling the vast territory, the war has reached a stalemate, resulting in a de facto partition. (6)Syria Resolves Nuclear Noncompliance Case InvestigationAndrea Stricker discusses the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) unanimously closing Syria's formal nuclear non-compliance finding from 2011 after Damascus permitted access to historical nuclear sites. Inspectors visited the destroyed Al-Kibar reactor at Deir ez-Zor and Site 99, where they uncovered 73 tons of undeclared natural uranium metal, fuel rods, and a graphite moderator. While placing these materials under safeguards represents positive progress, critical questions persist regarding North Korean assistance, potential plutonium reprocessing, and untracked equipment. Consequently, the United States emphasizes that the IAEA investigation remains incomplete and demands detailed further reporting from the Director General. (7)Ghosts Of Hiroshima Uncovers Atomic HistoryCharles Pellegrino, author of Ghosts of Hiroshima, traces the origin of nuclear weapons from theoretical physics concepts to the devastating bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. He compares the 27-kiloton Nagasaki bomb to Hiroshima's smaller device, explaining how intense heat, shockwaves, and toxic black rain caused long-term genetic damage and lingering fatalities. Pellegrino chronicles the lives of double-survivors (hibakusha) like Tsutomu Yamaguchiand Kenshi Hirata, who endured both blasts yet faced intense social ostracization in post-war Japan. The narrative also covers the forced internment and unjust deportation of Japanese-American families back to devastated Hiroshima ruins. (8)Saudi Nuclear Ambitions Spark Congressional OversightHenry Sokolski analyzes the controversial US-Saudi nuclear cooperation agreement, which permits Saudi Arabia to enrich uranium domestically. Congressional leaders from both parties are demanding transparency regarding classified documents stored in Capitol facilities that conceal vendor lists and fuel supply terms. (9)Commercial Space Operations Advance Rapidly WorldwideBob Zimmerman reviews commercial space developments, beginning with SpaceX's upcoming Starship 14 orbital test flight designed to deploy 26 Starlink version 3 satellites.

    The biggest story in tech right now is the spiraling debate about AI safety and regulation. The CEOs of all these companies have issued various calls to slow down development and develop regulation, including asking for antitrust exemptions so they can all coordinate on safety issues. So to make sense of it all, I called Jonathan Kanter, the former antitrust chief for the U.S. Department of Justice in the Biden Administration. There's a lot going on, and we really got into the weeds of how all this regulation might work, and how it might interact with antitrust law, competition policy, and our relationship with China.

    Most Turks believe being Turkish and being Muslim are inseparably intertwined. Pastor Ramazan Arkan was an adult before he ever met a Turkish Christian. Then he became friends with a coworker who had left Islam to follow Jesus. That friendship started Ramazan on a journey that eventually led to the cross of Christ.  Pastor Ramazan is now leading the Association of Protestant Churches in Turkey, and he is the pastor of Antalya Evangelical Churches in Antalya, Türkiye. Listen as he shares how he came to Christ, first asking questions about Islam and the Quran and then irresistibly drawn by the loving relationships he saw when he was invited to a local church. "The most effective way to share the gospel message is through relationship," Pastor Ramazan says. You'll hear how his name, Ramazan (Ramadan, the Muslim month of fasting) is both a blessing and a curse. He'll also describe the Christian persecution when he left Islam for Christianity, and more about what our persecuted brothers and sisters in Türkiye face for their faith in Jesus. Pastor Ramazan will tell the story of the night he became a Christian and felt God's presence and Word come alive to him. He'll also explain why it's important to reveal the cost of following Christ to new Muslim background believers early on, why his church doesn't baptize new believers immediately, and the sad story of one new Christian who went back to Islam after seeing the high cost of following Christ.
