Is America quietly winning the trade war with China… or are we walking straight into an economic trap we don't see coming? In this thought-provoking episode of The Brian Nichols Show, we dive into one of the most misunderstood and high-stakes geopolitical chess matches of our time: the U.S.–China trade relationship. Studio Sponsor: Cardio Miracle - "Unlock the secret to a healthier heart, increased energy levels, and transform your cardiovascular fitness like never before.": https://www.briannicholsshow.com/heart From broken promises in the Phase One trade deal to China's state-run economic machine, host Brian Nichols and guest Alex Rosado rip the cover off the polite headlines and deliver a clear-eyed breakdown of what's really going on—and why it matters to YOU. Forget the wonky jargon and globalist fluff—this is about national security, economic sovereignty, and whether America can still out-build, out-innovate, and outlast. You'll learn how China failed to deliver on key trade promises, why their economy might be more smoke than fire, and how the U.S. can play smart offense—not just defense. We talk about the rise of ghost cities, declining GDP, and China's population collapse. But it's not all doom and gloom—there's a clear playbook to secure America's future and Brian lays it out with the blunt, no-nonsense style you know and love. We also zoom out to explore how economic policy, like shipbuilding and reshoring manufacturing, ties directly into national defense. You'll find out why China is dominating the global shipbuilding game (hint: the Jones Act isn't helping) and what America must do to reassert industrial dominance. Spoiler alert: It starts by making it easier for you to build and innovate right here at home. And don't miss the final segment—Brian and Alex cut through the Hollywood-style “good guy vs. bad guy” thinking and explain what a real pro-America strategy looks like. This isn't about tariffs for show—it's about smart, principled tactics that help American workers, businesses, and families thrive without handing the keys to Beijing. This episode is a crash course in how economic freedom, strategic policy, and common sense can beat authoritarian bluster every time—if we get serious, now. ❤️ Order Cardio Miracle (https://www.briannicholsshow.com/heart) with code TBNS at checkout for 15% off and take a step towards better heart health and overall well-being!

Halen Mattison and Luke Neise are co-founders at General Galactic. General Galactic is a seed-stage e-fuels startup out of El Segundo in the Los Angeles area that converts captured CO₂ into synthetic fuels, starting with natural gas. They claim that their end product is a carbon-neutral drop-in replacement for natural gas that can run in all of today's vast gas infrastructure. In their view, any company or country can in theory become a gas producer. The two founders met at Stanford and went on to early careers in aerospace, Halen at SpaceX and Luke at Varda Space Industries. As they'll share, the vision for General Galactic was ultimately inspired by technologies that are used in space today, which they felt could help solve the energy transition here on Earth.In this episode, we cover: [1:43] The origin of the name General Galactic (GG)[3:07] Halen and Luke's backgrounds[7:00] An overview of GG[8:14] How GG's technology leverages existing infrastructure[14:15] GG and its connection to SAF[16:55] How GG chose to focus on natural gas[19:18] Differences between CNG and RNG[22:44] An overview of LNG[26:06] The Jones Act and its impact on fuel transportation[28:14] GG's drop-in replacement and its economic implications[31:02] The footprint of GG's “Genesis modules”[34:49] The importance of location for GG's hardware[38:05] Addressing methane emissions concerns[40:19] GG's technology readiness and commercialization pathways[42:11] GG's business model and go-to-market strategy[45:12] GG's financing to date[49:20] Who GG wants to connect withAdditional Resources:Our World in Data - Energy MixEstimates of Methane Emissions by Segment in the United States*The claims made in this episode are based on current research and theoretical models.

And more importantly, it'll give them the option to be able to re flag or re domesticate those vessels for use in, other markets where they're going to be needed, like the U. S., potentially, again, up to a point where we have Jones Act issues or markets like South Korea, Brazil Taiwan, etc. So, it's much needed. Joel Saxum: So, for those of you who don't know, or new to offshore wind, or haven't followed the program before, an SOV is basically a floating hotel for all the offshore wind workers. It has a lot of deck space, usually has a small crane, not a big work crane, but enough to move things around on deck, or, or transition some, some gear that's needed, some tools, or some equipment to the transition piece on an offshore ship. Wind turbine. So basically, these are the big vessels that kind of are resident out in a wind farm. They'll go out for a couple weeks at a time until they have to do crew changes. Sometimes even doing crew changes at sea where the vessel just stays out there and a little transfer boat comes and moves people around. But these are the big vessels. These SOVs are the things that make the wind farms tick offshore. Without them they're not going to stay up and running for very long. Allen Hall: The International Energy Agency reports that investment in clean energy technologies, including renewables, will be twice that of fossil fuels this year. Global spending on sectors such as wind, solar, grids, EV, nuclear, and energy storage is expected to reach about 2 trillion in 2024, while oil, gas, and coal receive dollars. However, the IEA warns a persistent low investment in clean energy in emerging and developing economies due to high costs of capital. And Phil, we've seen this play out in Asia at the moment and in Africa. Philip Totaro: Yes,

Don't miss our newsletter! Mike and Jake host Captain John Konrad to talk all things Merchant Marine. We talked about the Merchant Marine Academy, being a merchant mariner, and how they fit into national security. What is the Military Sealift Command thing, and why does it keep confusing the counting of Navy ships? What is the Jones Act, and why is it so political? The US has a ghost fleet of ships staged on both US coasts in case WWIII kicks off—but where are the people? Who were the most famous merchant mariners? What went wrong with the USS Bonhomme Richard fire response? Why is Baltimore's Francis Scott Key Bridge still not cleaned up? Which US military branch is the biggest merchant mariner customer? Hint….its NOT the Navy. Tune in for answers to all of the above—and more! John is the founder and CEO of gCaptain and author of Fire on The Horizon. He is licensed to captain the world's largest ships, has sailed from ports worldwide, and managed billion-dollar offshore construction projects in some of the world's harshest marine environments. This episode is PACKED with intel, but we still had some fun along the way. You should expect nothing less!

Plus: A listener asks the editors to steel man the case for the Jones Act, an antiquated law that regulates maritime commerce in U.S. waters.

A little-known U.S. law called the Jones Act shapes climate tech in weird ways — like hindering offshore wind deployment and pushing up energy prices. The law, part of the Merchant Marine Act of 1920, requires all cargo shipped between U.S. ports to be carried by ships that meet strict standards. Those ships must be built in American shipyards, owned by an American company, registered in the U.S., and crewed by a majority American crew. As a result, building cargo ships in the U.S., and operating them between U.S. ports, is way more expensive than building and operating ships in other countries — and relatively few U.S. ships get built. So what are the impacts on climate tech? In this episode, Shayle talks to Colin Grabow, research fellow at the Cato Institute's Herbert A. Stiefel Center for Trade Policy Studies. They cover topics like: How the Jones Act increases the money and time required to deploy offshore wind turbines Why it costs less to ship U.S. oil and gas abroad than to domestic markets How it pushes domestic shipping to rely on trucks and trains instead of ships The history of the act and potential ways it could change Recommended Resources: WIRED: The US Has Big Plans for Wind Energy—but an Obscure 1920s Law Is Getting in the Way Cato Institute: Jones Act Leaves New England Vulnerable to Wintertime Calamity Cato Institute: Environmental Costs of the Jones Act Are growing concerns over AI's power demand justified?

Up along the East coast, there has been four developers submitting bids for a total of a little over six gigawatts of offshore wind. Along the sort of Connecticut, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, offshore area. The bidders were Avangrid Ørsted, South Coast Wind Energy, and Vineyard Offshore. Back in late last year Connecticut, Rhode Island, and Massachusetts had signed a MOU to collaborate together on offshore wind procurement, because they were all doing it separately and competing against one another, and they all had slightly different wording and contracts, and it made all the bidders confused and upset about it. So they decided to combine them. Finally, the Massachusetts is looking for about 3. 6 gigawatts, Rhode Island about 1. 2, and Connecticut is headed for about 2 gigawatts. So Massachusetts received bids from Avangrid, South Coast Wind Energy, and Vineyard Offshore. And the final decisions on project will be decided in August, which seems like an eternity, everybody. Rhode Island will evaluate proposals from all four bidders with a decision expected in about three months. Makes a little more sense.

On this week's episode Ron and Ed welcome Colin Grabow of the CATO Institute's Herbert A. Stiefel Center for Trade Policy Studies to talk about the Jones Act (aka Merchant Marine Act of 1920) which regulates maritime commerce in U.S. waters and between U.S. ports, oh, and, makes stuff more expensive for all of us while benefitting a select few. You will learn the main reason why food and other sundry items are more expensive in Hawaii and Puerto Rice; why the Northeast US imports natural gas from Russia instead of getting it from the US; and many more insanities.

The Jones Act is always in the top ten for worst US economic policies.  Passed in 1920, it basically restricts all goods and services transported between US sports to be on US built, owned and crewed vessels.  While that sounds great it skyrockets costs on US citizens particularly those in Puerto Rico, Alaska and Hawaii.  Why does this matter to us energy geeks?  Because the US doesn't have a Jones Act compliant ship that can transport LNG, Massachusetts imports LNG from primarily Trinidad but occasionally from Russia.  WTF?!?   Colin is an expert on the Jones Act and breaks it all down for us. 

It's no secret that one of the fun things about Odd Lots is that it covers a lot of different topics, from the plumbing of the financial system to crimes in commodities to the ongoing impact of 100-year-old laws like the Jones Act.

Maritime shipping is a bit of a paradoxical climate issue. On the one hand, it accounts for 3% of global greenhouse gas emissions, burns extremely dirty bunker fuel, and has a number of inefficiencies leading to outsized pollution. On the other hand, it is also by far the most sustainable mode of transporting goods, as compared to planes, trains, and trucks — making it a sort of climate solution. Unfortunately, in the United States, that solution is being blocked by a regulation called the Jones Act, which requires any ships traveling from one U.S. port to another to be built, flagged, and crewed in the U.S. Meant to protect national security and support American shipbuilders, the regulation has substantially driven up the cost of American goods particularly in Alaska, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico, wrecked entire industries (including offshore wind), and led only 2% of U.S. freight to be carried by ships — leaving 98% to be carried by more expensive and more polluting alternatives. Today, we explore why maritime shipping isn't living up to its full potential as a sustainable transportation mechanism, how the Jones Act has impacted it, and what steps we could take to rectify the situation moving forward.
