There is confidence global economic resilience is growing in response to volatile oil prices and conflict in the Middle East. The US will soon block Iranian ports again, but Donald Trump's abandoned his plan for a 20% fee on cargo passing through the Strait of Hormuz. It comes as the US and Iran continue to trade strikes and oil prices climb to their highest point in a month. Boris Johnson's Former Chief Economic Advisor, Gerard Lyons told Mike Hosking it takes time for economies to adjust. He says in the Gulf, oil pipe facilities are being built to remove the dependency on the Strait. Lyons says earlier this year, people were fearing the worst-case scenario for the global economy, but there's a lot more resilience now, and so there's more confidence we can weather a setback in Iran.

Episode Summary: President Trump's defense spending boost presents major opportunities for the Air Force. However, many officials have spent their entire careers living through extended periods of austerity—with budget toplines driving decisions, not what they really need to meet requirements. Switching gears to grow the force involves a different mindset to address different challenges and maximize opportunities. That's what we discuss today: how do we grow the Air Force? We are joined by two legends of airpower for this conversation: Gen. Ron Fogleman, USAF (Ret.), the 15th Chief of Staff of the Air Force, and Gen. Mike Loh, USAF (Ret.), who served as the Vice Chief of Staff of the Air Force and later as the first commander of Air Combat Command. They both spent time in key plans and program assignments during the Reagan-era build up, the last time the Air Force saw a surge of investment.

What happens to the PM, the designer, and the engineer when a single person with a great idea can take it all the way to market on their own?In this episode of Supra Insider, Ben Erez sits down with Tomer Cohen, former Chief Product Officer at LinkedIn, where he spent 14 years and led the company's product transformation through the AI era. Tomer unpacks the full stack builder mindset - not as a job title, but as a fundamental rethinking of how product development works when the bloated, process-heavy model of the last two decades gets collapsed back down to its original building blocks: idea, build, ship.They explore how Tomer actually rolled this out at LinkedIn across thousands of people, including replacing the traditional APM program with one where candidates submit a working product instead of a resume, and where the final interview is building something end to end in real time. He breaks down the three archetypes he sees emerging - system builders, full stack builders, and specialists - and what he observed clearly separating top performers from the rest: not their tooling, but their judgment. The conversation closes with a Q&A covering how to navigate interpersonal friction as roles blur, when you actually need a specialist to step in, and what skills will remain stubbornly human no matter what.If you're a PM, designer, or engineer trying to understand where your role is actually heading and what to do about it right now, trying to think clearly about how to future-proof your career without falling for hype, or curious how a CPO at one of the biggest tech companies in the world actually tried to operationalize this shift - this episode is for you.All episodes of the podcast are also available on Spotify, Apple and YouTube.New to the pod?
