CAPTION: 1955.CONTENTS THE JOHN BATCHELOR SHOW, 9-2-2026Saudi Arabia Seeks Nuclear EnrichmentAndrea Stricker discusses the Trump administration's submission of a Section 123 nuclear cooperation agreement with Saudi Arabia to Congress. This agreement could grant Saudi Arabia dual-use uranium enrichment and plutonium reprocessing capabilities, potentially enabling nuclear weapon development. A major concern is Saudi Arabia's refusal to sign the IAEA's Additional Protocol, which permits inspections of undeclared nuclear sites. Although Congress has 90 days to review and potentially block the accord, overcoming a presidential veto would require an unlikely two-thirds majority. Stricker notes the administration's claims about Chinese and Russian competition lack evidence. (1)China Rejects Global Trade ConsensusKamran Bokhari and Gordon Chang discuss China's refusal to sign a G20 finance ministers' consensus document, objecting to language targeting non-market policies that cause trade imbalances. Chang attributes this defiance to Xi Jinping's arrogance and belief in US decline. Bokhari explains that China is posturing ahead of a summit with Trump, utilizing command capitalism to flood global markets. Bokhari highlights a shifting security architecture in Asia, including Tokyo deploying fighter jets to India and Jakarta arming itself, driven by expectations of US retrenchment. Additionally, Xi Jinping maintains absolute control domestically through extensive military purges while building ties with Egypt. (2)Steve Yates Warns Of ConflictSteve Yates and Gordon Chang address China's refusal to sign the G20 finance ministers' statement, which criticized "non-market" policies. Yates views this as an honest admission that Beijing has no intention of conforming to international trade standards. He praises Treasury Secretary Bessent for maintaining a firm stance alongside allies. Anticipating the September 24th summit between Trump and Xi Jinping, Yates notes that Washington has delayed a $14 billion arms sale to Taiwan to preserve positive "mood music." Finally, Yates warns of the "CRINK" axis—comprising China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea—collaborating on military supply chains and conflicts. (3)Global Energy And Food CrisisMichael Bernstam outlines a compounding global energy and food crisis. Tensions between the US and Iran have halted critical oil shipments through the Strait of Hormuz, driving Brent crude prices up. Meanwhile, European winter natural gas prices have tripled due to storages being filled only to 62%. High gas prices also restrict fertilizer production, which, coupled with Black Sea port bombings by Russia and Ukraine, has caused a spike in global grain prices. Finally, despite US interest in Venezuelan heavy crude to produce diesel, decades of local mismanagement limit production. (4)Young Conservatives Embrace Nixon MaxingRyan Bangert explores the Gen Z trend of "Nixon maxing," where young conservatives view Richard Nixon as a heroic avatar resisting 1970s extremism. Bangert argues this aesthetic misinterprets Nixon as a revolutionary. In reality, Nixon was a counterrevolutionary who sought to preserve and revitalize established institutions based on the values of the American founding. Contrastingly, Bangert highlights the philosophical division between the destructive, post-Christian French Revolution and the enduring American Revolution. Ultimately, he urges young conservatives to appreciate Nixon's true legacy: conserving institutional checks and balances to temper flawed human nature. (5)Treasury Targets Iranian Sanctions EvasionMax Maizlish explains how the Treasury Department's FinCEN is penalizing five branches of an Egyptian bank in Dubai to curb illicit financial flows. FinCEN identified $1.8 billion in suspicious transactions linked to the Iranianregime. To effectively dismantle Iran's financial network, Maizlish argues the US must target Chinese institutions, as China purchases over 90% of Iran's crude oil. Specifically, he advocates for blacklisting the Bank of Kunlun—a state-owned Chinese entity heavily involved in Iranian sanctions evasion. Maizlish asserts that CNPC officials are fully aware of these illicit transactions, making decisive sanctions necessary. (6)El Niño Defies Weather ForecastsJeremy Zakis reports on the unpredictable impacts of the current super El Niño on Australian weather. Contrary to long-term dry forecasts, Sydney is experiencing unseasonable, rolling rain showers, while Western Australia faces extreme heat exceeding 100°F. Zakis warns that if droughts strike in late September rather than mid-October, Australia faces a catastrophic, extended bushfire season fueled by rapid undergrowth. Beyond Australia, extreme weather anomalies like French tornadoes and Southern California hurricane warnings are linked to historically high Pacific sea temperatures. Additionally, warm temperatures have caused dangerous eastern brown snakes to begin moving early. (7)brown snakes to begin moving early. (7)Axis Cooperates On Advanced WeaponryBradley Bowman and Mark Montgomery, authors of Axis of Aggressors, analyze the rising military coordination detailed in their book. They reveal a secret Russian program helping Iran build supersonic cruise missiles using ramjet engines, which pose a severe threat to US and merchant vessels in the Gulf. Furthermore, China assists Iran with chemical precursors and satellite targeting data. Beyond the Middle East, Russia engages in hybrid warfare in Europe, including attempted drone attacks in Germany. In response, Germany is significantly increasing defense spending and deploying a combat brigade to Lithuania to bolster deterrence. (8)Commodity Prices Spike Amid UnrestSimon Constable discusses recent extreme weather, including an unprecedented tornado in the south of France that damaged 300 homes. This disruption mirrors severe instability in the commodity markets, where Brent crude has surged to $94 a barrel, European gas has jumped 26%, and Black Sea grain prices have spiked up to 16%. Constable also critiques the new UK Prime Minister Andy Burnham for focusing on minor local issues rather than global crises. Finally, he reviews public backlash against data centers, which consume substantial water and over 4% of total US electricity. (9)SpaceX Builds Massive Private SpaceportBob Zimmerman highlights SpaceX's purchase of a massive plot in Louisiana to establish a private spaceport capable of hosting dozens of Starship flights daily. Zimmerman argues that SpaceX's market-driven approach ensures success, whereas state-sponsored space programs in the UK and Canada often flounder due to bureaucracy. He outlines SpaceX's progress, including recovering the prototype 13 Starship and preparing for flight 14. Finally, Zimmerman notes the successful, on-budget launch of the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope, upgrades to NASA's Deep Space Network, and the upcoming nuclear-powered Skyfall mission to Mars.

Send us Fan MailSerious Web3 capital does not chase the loudest narrative. It follows clear thinking, real adoption, and founders who can earn trust when the hype is gone.Joeri Billast sits down with Bashar Al Madhoun, CEO of Dubai's ALMAK Group, a royal-backed global holding and investment management group chaired by Sheikh Ali bin Rashed Al Maktoum, to explore where Web3 venture capital and institutional capital are actually moving in 2026.Fresh from conversations in Kuala Lumpur and across Southeast Asia, Bashar explains why some of the most compelling opportunities are moving beyond “crypto” as a category toward practical business problems involving digital identity, ownership, payments, data infrastructure, and new collaboration models.If you are building, marketing, investing in, or fundraising for a Web3 company, this conversation breaks down what investors listen for when deciding whether a project deserves a second meeting. Bashar shares the core signals: clarity around the problem, customer, solution and business model, evidence of real adoption, and a team and leader capable of executing.We also explore the red flags that can quickly undermine an otherwise promising project, from vanity growth metrics and weak governance to unclear legal structures, poor risk management and insufficient data protection. Bashar explains why compliance can become a competitive advantage rather than friction, and why leadership, consistency and transparency about uncertainty increasingly matter in building investor trust.Joeri and Bashar then compare Dubai and Southeast Asia as Web3 ecosystems and examine the growing convergence of AI and Web3. Where does that combination create real economic value, and when is it simply two powerful narratives packaged together? Bashar also explains why AI can support investment analysis but should never replace human judgment.For founders building for the next five years rather than the next hype cycle, the message is clear: solve a focused problem, prove that people need it, and protect governance, data, IP, security and reputation from the beginning.This episode was recorded through a Descript call on September 2, 2026.

The Brussels Diamond League final is coming up, World Ultimate Championships in Budapest is in nine days, and the season is headed toward its conclusion. Preet went from Zurich to Bellinzona for the last qualifying weekend, interviewed Coach Laurent Mewly (Femke Broeders-Bol's coach), and is heading to Brussels tomorrow.Discussed in this episode:– Nadia Battocletti runs 3:57 at Bellinzona — Italian 1500m national record. Her range of personal bests across the 1500m, 5K, and 10K is comparable to Hellen Obiri.– Gracie Morris — moves from Puma to Mike Smith's Swoosh TC group: Preet spoke to her in Bellinzona. She explained that the Puma group has become increasingly marathon-oriented (with Dorcas Ewoi as the one 1500m athlete staying). Morris didn't want to wait for that transition, so she moved to Mike Smith and started doing double threshold.– Sabastian Sawe withdraws from the Berlin Marathon due to a stress fracture in his right tibia: This eliminates any remaining fall marathon options. Valencia, where Yomif Kejelcha will attempt to go sub-2 again, is off the table. This is Sawe's second injury in 2026 (he was dealing with something coming into London but recovered in time).– Sydney Marathon results — second year as an Abbott World Major: Adisu Gobena wins the men's race in 2:04:42, breaking the course record. He's 21 years old, debuted at 19 in Dubai, and previously beat Conner Mantz at the Houston Half. Peres Jepchirchir wins the women's race in 2:18:31 by nearly four minutes.– Athlos NYC — canceled: Statement from Alexis Ohanian cited athlete feedback. Laurent Meuwly posted a pointed response on Twitter: athletes who prioritized their welfare by declining lost the chance to compete at the London date too (because participation was tied to both), and that the realization came very late.+ Brussels Diamond League Final preview.____________SUPPORT OUR SPONSORSOLIPOP: OLIPOP's Citrus Rush packs apple, lemon, lime, and orange juices with 60mg of green tea caffeine for a bold, refreshing blast of flavor ready to fuel your next adventure.

No “Estadão Analisa” desta quarta-feira, 02, Carlos Andreazza fala das novas revelações sobre o caso Master. A troca de mensagens entre Alexandre de Moraes, do Supremo Tribunal Federal (STF), e o dono do Banco Master, Daniel Vorcaro, indica que o ministro discutia com o banqueiro a possibilidade de a Polícia Federal deflagrar a primeira fase da Operação Compliance Zero e a estratégia que o dono do Master deveria adotar para frustrar o cumprimento da ordem de prisão preventiva contra ele expedida pela 10.ª Vara Federal do Distrito Federal. O compartilhamento de informações sigilosas entre Moraes e Vorcaro sobre os primeiros passos da investigação começou em 4 de novembro de 2025 e se intensificou à medida que se aproximava a prisão do banqueiro. Segundo investigadores, o conteúdo da conversa permite inferir que Moraes repassava a Daniel Vorcaro detalhes sensíveis sobre o andamento inicial da Operação Compliance Zero, incluindo datas e horários de diligências planejadas pela Polícia Federal. Em 15 de novembro de 2025, um sábado, Vorcaro consultou Moraes. “Acha que segunda já tenho que estar fora?”, sobre sair do País para escapar da prisão. Quarenta e oito horas depois, na noite de 17 de novembro, segunda-feira, o banqueiro foi preso pela PF quando tentava embarcar em um jato particular com destino a Malta e, depois, para Dubai, nos Emirados Árabes Unidos, onde buscava concretizar a venda do Banco Master. Para investigadores, pretendia fugir do País. O ministro André Mendonça, relator do processo do caso Master no Supremo Tribunal Federal (STF), não deverá fazer pedido formal de investigação contra o ministro Alexandre de Moraes sem antes alinhar o passo com o presidente da Corte, Edson Fachin. A postura reflete uma praxe adotada por Mendonça, que tem mantido diálogos frequentes com Fachin e priorizado a consulta prévia sempre que se depara com episódios de alta tensão institucional.

Oh hey ToastersWelcome to another episode of Amazon History Diving! This week we have huge news: Jamelia has bought a LOT of things on Amazon. Like, a LOT.295 orders in a single year, in fact. Spoiler alert there.Behind the stationery, fabric conditioner, photography equipment, rat poison, high-vis clothing and inexplicable metal detector, though, is the story of an extraordinary few years and an extraordinarily cool woman.This week, during a brilliantly candid rummage through another Amazon history, Jamelia (WHO IS A FAN OF THE SHOW) takes us from homeschooling and the terrifying intrusion of the tabloid press, through lockdown and an ever-changing collection of new hobbies, to the breakdown of her marriage while pregnant with her fourth daughter and the beginning of a completely new life in Dubai. Drama-rama, frankly.Along the way we discover why writing her own songs was one of the best decisions Jamelia ever made, why she once dressed like a construction worker simply because she had hired a skip, why her attempt to make all her baby's clothes resulted in precisely ZERO garments, and why one of her daughters has recently required a metal detector.It's funny, surprisingly moving and gloriously chaotic. Because of COURSE it is because it's My Mate Bought a Toaster!Welcome to the many, many, MANY Amazon eras of Jamelia.Don't forget to give us a big fat follow on all the socials please:

Riaan was broke, on drugs, and sleeping on people's couches in Cape Town. Soleen was stuck in an interior design career she hated in Dubai. They met through an Instagram story, talked for seven months without meeting, and told each other "I think I'm going to marry you" before they'd ever been in the same room. In this episode — the airport no-show, the 100-dirham wedding rings, the first year they almost got divorced, and how a couple workout video filmed during COVID turned two people with nothing into one of the most-watched couples in the Middle East.━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

In today's episode, I sit down with Brian Rose, an American-British podcaster, political candidate, former banker, and founder of London Real. Brian shares why he walked away from a lucrative banking career to build a media company before podcasting and personal brands became mainstream. We discuss overcoming the fear of other people's opinions, improving through consistent action, and creating lasting relationships through long-form conversations. Brian also explains why engaged communities matter more than impressive follower counts, how charging customers increases commitment, and why media becomes more valuable when connected to a meaningful product ecosystem. He also shares lessons from censorship, controversy, and building investment ventures in Dubai.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Aimen's prediction on 4 August came true, and in the intervening weeks the United States have ramped up the economic pressure on the Iranian regime. The question is: how with the IRGC react? The war re-escalated over the weekend, and as the Iranian people began to make their feelings felt, all indications are that peace is farther away than ever. Aimen and Thomas discuss: Operation Economic Outcast: US sanctions and regional trade restrictions tighten Iran's economic isolation. Strait of Hormuz: US demining, Gulf oil exports and Iran's new underwater drone threat reshape the naval war. Iran's economic crisis: collapsing rial, inflation, shortages and possible unrest increase pressure on the IRGC. UAE-Iran trade: Dubai's historic commercial role shrinks as Gulf states join Washington's economic campaign. US strategy in the Gulf: Trump administration cohesion, long-term military deployment and growing concern about China. Iran escalation risks: attacks on Gulf infrastructure, domestic repression and renewed US-Iran fighting. Tactical nuclear weapons: Aimen warns the conflict could cross the nuclear threshold if escalation continues.

TL;DRIn this episode of the Mama Earth Talk podcast, host Mariska Nell talks with Christy Wilhelmi, founder of Gardenerd and author of five books, who grows 50–70% of her family's produce in under 300 square feet using bio-intensive gardening. The big takeaway: healthy soil, not chemicals, gadgets, or acreage, is what makes growing your own food work.Have you ever wondered if you could actually grow your own food, even with a tiny backyard, a balcony, or barely any space at all? In this episode of the Mama Earth Talk podcast, host Mariska Nell talks with Christy Wilhelmi, founder of Gardenerd and author of five books, who grows 50-70% of her family's produce in under 300 square feet using bio-intensive gardening. The big takeaway: healthy soil - not chemicals, gadgets, or acreage - is what makes growing your own food work.IN THIS EPISODEMariska and Christy dig into how bio-intensive gardening grows serious amounts of food in tiny spaces, why you should lab-test your soil for heavy metals before planting in the ground, the truth about electric indoor "composters", and how community gardens build both food security and human connection. Christy also shares her journey from theatre graduate to top-ranked gardening podcaster, her Food Inc. 2 panel takeaways on fixing the food system, and her upcoming cozy mystery Bolting to Seed.KEY TAKEAWAYSBio-intensive gardening grows more food in less space with less water, land, and labour than conventional rows - it is how Christy grows 50-70% of her family's produce in under 300 square feet.- Before planting in the ground, get a lab soil test that includes heavy metals: beets, chard, and spinach can pull lead from contaminated soil into your food. A full test costs about $95 in the US, less near universities.- Electric indoor "composters" don't compost - they dehydrate scraps into "potpourri" with no microbial life, and rehydrating the output can attract pests.- Healthy, microbially rich soil prevents most pest and disease problems before they start - steward the soil and the garden largely takes care of itself.- The answer to "how do I kill this bug?" is an ecosystem: pollinator-friendly plants attract predator insects that control pests for you.- If you can't grow your own food, shopping at farmers markets and buying organic "puts your money where your mouth is" - demand shapes the food system.TIMESTAMPS[00:00] Could you grow your own food - even with barely any space?[02:45] Welcome, Christy Wilhelmi[03:01] Earth Day, 30+ years vegetarian, and how Christy's journey began[04:12] Building Gardenerd - and pitching a community-garden show to PBS SoCal[05:29] "One garden at a time": the antidote to climate hopelessness[07:15] Bio-intensive gardening: 50-70% of the family's produce in under 300 sq ft[09:15] Lead in the soil: why (and how) to test before you plant[11:21] "How do I kill this bug?" - building an ecosystem instead[13:30] Soil is your biggest investment[15:32] Food Inc. 2, the farm bill, and voting with your wallet[18:44] Can home gardens really move the needle?[20:06] 28 years in a community garden: what it teaches about people[21:37] The indoor composter myth ("it's potpourri, not compost")[25:02] Garden Variety and the new cozy mystery Bolting to Seed (out June 1)[29:42] The Final FiveABOUT CHRISTY WILHELMIChristy Wilhelmi is the founder of Gardenerd, the ultimate resource for garden nerds, and the author of five books including High-Yield Small-Space Organic Gardening and the novel Garden Variety.

According to Christy Wilhelmi on the Mama Earth Talk podcast, bio-intensive gardening - compact, efficient growing in raised beds - lets her grow 50-70% of her family's produce in under 300 square feet, using less water, land, and labour than conventional gardening.Should I test my soil before growing vegetables?If you're planting directly in the ground, yes. Lab soil tests reveal heavy metals like lead, which crops such as beets, chard, and spinach can draw into your food. A comprehensive test costs about $95 in the US. Raised beds with clean soil are the alternative.Do indoor electric composters actually work?No. They dehydrate food scraps rather than composting them - there is no microbial activity, and the dried output can attract ants and other pests when rehydrated. Real composting needs living microbes.What's the easiest way to start organic gardening?Focus on soil first. Healthy, nutrient-rich, microbially active soil prevents most pest and disease problems, reduces watering and feeding, and matters more than any product or gadget.QUOTE OF THE EPISODE"The one thing that's going extinct faster than anything else is our topsoil.

What if bread itself isn't necessarily the problem—but the ways we grow grain, process flour, and make bread have fundamentally changed?In Episode 151 of The Dr. Haley Show, Dr. Michael Haley welcomes German baker, engineer, author, and nutrition adviser Dr. Sven Mostegl. Their wide-ranging conversation explores traditional breadmaking, modern flour, sourdough cultures, wheat berries, gluten, fiber, and long fermentation.Rather than declaring bread universally good or bad, Dr. Mostegl explains why the grain, milling process, ingredients, fermentation time, and craftsmanship can produce very different foods.You'll learn:• How traditional bread differs from much of today's packaged bread• What happens after a wheat berry is milled into flour• The advantages and limitations of grinding flour at home• Why professionally milled flour is not necessarily inferior• What long fermentation may change inside dough• Why fermentation involves more than simply waiting a certain number of hours• The difference between authentic sourdough and sourdough-flavored bread• Where the yeasts and bacteria in a sourdough starter come from• How commercial yeast changed bread production• Why whole-grain flour and proper preparation should be considered together• How wheat, spelt, einkorn, and rye differ in breadmaking• Why rye is Dr. Mostegl's favorite grain• How fiber, bread structure, and fermentation may influence blood sugar• Which questions to ask when buying bread from a bakery• What equipment a beginning home baker actually needs• Why learning to handle dough by hand can be valuable before using machinery• How consumer choices can influence what bakeries and manufacturers produceDr. Mostegl also discusses breadmaking as a tactile, meditative, and even spiritual practice. Working with dough teaches the baker to respond to temperature, humidity, hydration, flour, starter activity, and the changing condition of the dough—not merely follow a clock.IMPORTANT CELIAC DISEASE DISTINCTIONOrdinary wheat, rye, or barley sourdough should not be presumed safe for someone with celiac disease. Fermentation can modify components of the dough, but traditionally fermented bread may still contain clinically significant gluten.EPISODE RESOURCESRead the complete article, watch the interview, and access the full transcript: https://drhaley.com/bread-fermentation-sven-mostegl/Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/UmqcdtIaoNgLEARN MORE ABOUT DR.

Med den så kallade polarsidenvägen vill Kina stärka sin position inom världshandeln och säkra en strategisk rutt till Europa. Nu går trafiken tätare. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radios app. Ett varmare klimat öppnar upp för en ny kinesisk handelsrutt norr om Ryssland. För Kinas del handlar det om kortare transportsträckor till Europa och en pålitligare passage då världspolitisk oro gjort de konventionella sjöfartslederna osäkra. Nu startar ett kinesiskt rederi för första gången regelbunden containerfrakt från Kina via den nya passagen och fraktfartyget ”Dubai tower” väntas ankomma till Storbritannien i början på september. Även Göteborg är listat som tilltänkt framtida hamn för rederiet.Fördjupar Kinas armkrok med RysslandDen kommersiella potentialen är i dagsläget begränsad och den nya rutten kommer med en rad osäkerheter. Men den nya farvägen understryker Kinas närvaro i ett Arktis som alltfler stater pekat ut som strategiskt betydelsefullt. Och trafiken stärker bandet mellan Kina och Ryssland. Lyssna på Radiokorrespondenterna Kina om vad den nya handelsrutten innebär för maktbalansen i Arktis och vilka konsekvenser det kan få för världshandeln.Medverkande: Hanna Sahlberg, Kinareporter.

Sermon preached by Issam Saddy at the Evangelical Christian Church of Dubai on Genesis 24:1-67.

In this episode of the Smashi Business Show, we examine the UAE Central Bank's urgent investigation into Banque Misr branches following U.S. money laundering warnings. We then look at the Board of Peace's firm denial regarding the alleged misuse of Gaza reconstruction funds. Finally, we discuss Dubai Airports' operational recovery, zero-layoff policy, and updated passenger forecasts in the wake of regional conflicts.

Saudi Arabia appoints PIF veteran Sabah Barakat to lead New Murabba as the kingdom elevates Saudi executives across major institutions. Washington targets Banque Misr's UAE branches in the first measure since Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent declared an “economic D-Day” against Iran. And Mohamed Alabbar-led Americana Restaurants signs an exclusive agreement to bring Taco Bell back to the UAE after 14 years, starting in Dubai. Today's stories track changing leadership, financial pressure and consumer expansion across three of the region's biggest markets.

Treasury just launched "Operation Economic Outcast" and buried in the announcement is proof that supposed U.S. allies have been quietly propping up Iran's economy for years. Lance Wallnau breaks down the $21.3 billion trade cutoff, the countries caught funneling money to Tehran, and what it means heading into the midterms. Secretary of Treasury Scott Bessent unveiled a sweeping new sanctions campaign targeting Iran's financial lifelines, including digital assets, gold, aviation, and shipping, and the list of "allies" who've kept the regime afloat is more surprising than you'd expect. Lance walks through the UAE's own admission that it's suspending financial transactions with Iran after $14.8 billion in trade last year alone, the shell company networks in Hong Kong, Singapore, and Dubai moving oil revenue on Iran's behalf, and Glenn Beck's conversation with Patrick Bet-David calling this Iran's "economic D-Day." He also ties it back to Trump's education reform agenda and the bigger spiritual and cultural battle playing out before the midterms. In this episode: Why Lance believes right-wing podcast hosts like Theo Von, Joe Rogan, and Tim Dillon have gone quiet on Trump, and what he says caused the shift Trump's education agenda, including the $1,700 school choice tax credit, the $500 million charter school investment, and why Lance says the left is losing ground on this "cultural mountain" Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent's announcement of Operation Economic Outcast, and why one guest on Glenn Beck's show called it Iran's "economic D-Day" The UAE's secret $21.3 billion trade relationship with Iran, and why the country is now suspending financial transactions with the regime The shell company network in Hong Kong, Singapore, and Dubai that Lance says has been funneling oil revenue to keep Iran's economy afloat Lance's prayer for peace in the region and stability heading into a tense midterm season   Podcast Episode 2224: Why Some U.S. Allies Were Secretly Funding Iran All Along | don't miss this!

In this episode, we chat to Steele Hemmerich, President of MetPro (Metal Prospecting AS), a copper and zinc exploration company in Norway's Grong VMS District. He brings a rare blend of hands-on field experience and capital markets execution. He started his career in the oil and gas industry before moving into corporate finance, where he worked on transactions across the mining, oil and gas, and technology sectors. Based in Dubai, he's evaluated mining projects across Europe, Africa, South America and Southeast Asia, and calls MetPro one of the most exciting he's come across, thanks to its drill-defined resource, Tier-1 jurisdiction and established infrastructure. In this episode, Steele joins the show to talk about MetPro's copper-zinc project in Norway and what it takes to bring a brownfield VMS district back into production. KEY TAKEAWAYS MetPro is fast-tracking the drill-defined Skiftesmyr copper-zinc deposit in Central Norway's prolific Grong VMS district toward updated 43-101 compliance and pre-feasibility readiness. Built on decades of historical exploration and production data, the project benefits from tier-one infrastructure including direct access to highways, renewable hydropower, rail lines, and deepwater ports. The company's multi-phase exploration program aims to expand resources beyond 6 million tonnes by testing open depths, strike extensions, and unaccounted high-grade gold and silver mineralization. MetPro is strategically positioned to help close the EU's critical raw materials supply gap by leveraging predictable Scandinavian permitting standards and brownfield development speed. BEST MOMENTS "We have over 18,000 meters of modern diamond drilling completed, so this isn't a story about starting from a blank page; we're building on decades of historical development." "A great financial model built on shaky technical data is still a shaky project, no matter how clean the spreadsheet looks." "Domestic mining is only covering maybe a quarter of what Europe actually consumes... it's currently above the minimum 10% that the CRMA is targeting, but it's still a long way off of being self-sufficient." "Brownfield, previously drilled, tier-one jurisdiction with existing infrastructure—those can move from resource to production far faster than a greenfield discovery."

//The Wire//2300Z August 25, 2026// //ROUTINE// //BLUF: CIA DIRECTOR CONDUCTS MYSTERIOUS VISIT TO MOSCOW. AMERICAN TRADE DISPUTE WITH CANADA DETERIORATES AS BOTH SIDES DIG IN AND ANNOUNCE MUTUAL TARIFFS. IRAN STRIKES ANOTHER TANKER IN HORMUZ.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE-----  -International Events-Middle East: Last night Iran struck another tanker vessel in the Strait of Hormuz, which resulted in the vessel being disabled just off the coast of Oman. The vessel has not been identified as of this report, however this is the first tanker vessel struck by Iran in about a week.Russia: This morning unique aviation traffic was observed, centered around a US Air Force C-17 which took off from Riga, Latvia bound for Moscow. The transport aircraft (Callsign REACH4555) took off from Riga, landing in Moscow a few hours later, with both the United States and Russia not acknowledging the movement. Russians in Moscow also reported seeing American vehicles with diplomatic license plates being escorted by Russian police in the vicinity of the Kremlin.Analyst Comment: So far, neither side has confirmed who this aircraft movement was related to, however this appears to be a visit by CIA Director John Ratcliffe, who arrived for confidential talks with President Putin. This visit (particularly conducted in this manner) is highly unusual, and since all sides are ignoring questions about what was discussed, it will be quite interesting to find out what this visit was really about in a few days. The route taken by Ratcliffe's plane into Russia from Latvia was probably a hint regarding what the very short meeting was related to, but this can be interpreted in many different ways which are all speculative. Landing in Riga was not really necessary; the C-17 could have landed directly in Moscow without diverting to Latvia. Russia has been eyeing the targeting of NATO members for supplying Ukraine with munitions for a few months now, and though we have only complete speculation to rely on, it's possible that the visit was related to that. It could also be related to the rapidly escalating strikes on energy infrastructure throughout Russia and Ukraine. Both parties are slugging it out by destroying major petroleum infrastructure which is being made worse by the war in the Middle East, and the CIA Director would be the level of station that would be put on a plane to broker a miniature truce on that front. Whatever it was, it was certainly not without major importance. The last time the chief spy visited the Kremlin was five years ago, when Director Burns visited Russia to warn against invading Ukraine. That visit was largely kept a secret and only disclosed after the fact, whereas this morning's visit was telegraphed to the world to see very visibly.Canada: The trade dispute with the United States continues to deteriorate as both sides intensify hostile rhetoric on the economic front. So far, talks have stalled and both sides appear to be heading toward a return to mutual retaliatory tariffs. Over the past few days President Trump has threatened to impose a 50% tax on all automotive and auto parts imports from Canada, and this morning Canada announced a similar threats of tariffs on American imports.-HomeFront-Nevada: The Hawk Fire continues to demonstrate active fire behavior as weather conditions have allowed the fire's spread over the past 24 hours. As of this morning, almost 90,000 people are either in mandatory evacuation zones, or are in the "get ready" zones, preparing to evacuate. Good progress was made overnight by crews digging handlines, which have prioritized defending residences in Dog Valley. The weather forecast indicates an increase in conditions favorable for fire behavior over the next 24 hours, with the National Interagency Fire Center predicting the potential for the fire to make major runs to the Northeast and Northwest over the next few days.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: Within the Middle East, another threat vector bears consideration as the United States and Iran engage in their economic-warfare phase of the conflict. Yesterday, the United States announced the start of this economic campaign, which began with no real solid and tangible tactics being disclosed. More generally, this plan is an economic version of "if you're not with us, you're against us", and is intended to force other nations that have been sitting on the fence, to choose to support the United States (or at least, not support Iran). The issue with this plan, is that Iran has publicly stated many times that they will not be engaging in tit-for-tat economic policies...they will be meeting economic targeting, with kinetic targeting.How serious they are about this, is anyone's guess; they may just be content to let the Americans continue the economic warfare, on the bet that it won't really affect them since they've been sanctioned for half a century already. However, if Iran does decide to use missiles and drones to respond to American economic targeting, this could get ugly.For instance, if the United States somehow seriously hurts their ability to work with Pakistan to export oil through their pipeline, the Iranians might strike a Chevron facility in Iraq. And they probably won't be hitting the storage tanks, but the office trailer where they know Americans are working. They could also hit the American-linked banking headquarters facilities with precision strikes in Dubai, as a message to both parties.
