Secretary of State Marco Rubio has released the Trump administration's plans for reorganizing the State Department—a first step toward reducing what the White House calls a bloated and inefficient bureaucracy. The proposed reforms could reshape U.S. engagement with the world, ending America's human rights advocacy, shuttering key diplomatic offices, and threatening the very infrastructure that supports global U.S. leadership. With Congress holding the purse strings and foreign governments watching closely, how far will these reforms go—and at what cost to American influence and values abroad?In this episode, Jacob Heilbrunn speaks with Paul Saunders, the president of the Center for the National Interest. Saunders served in the George W. Bush Administration from 2003 to 2005 as Senior Advisor to the Under Secretary of State for Global Affairs.Music by Aleksey Chistilin from Pixabay

President Donald Trump's announcement of sweeping new global tariffs last week sent shockwaves through international markets, igniting fears of economic slowdown and triggering retaliatory measures from major trading partners like China. The consequences are already reverberating through the global energy system: oil and gas prices are sliding, producers are under pressure, and the clean energy transition faces fresh headwinds as tariffs hit solar panels, EVs, and battery components. With geopolitical tensions simmering and economic uncertainty rising, could Trump's tariff gamble reshape the global energy landscape for years to come? And how vulnerable is Russia's oil-dependent economy in this new low-price era? In this episode, Paul Saunders speaks with Tatiana Mitrova, a Research Fellow at Columbia University's Center on Global Energy Policy and Director of the New Energy Advancement Hub. Mitrova has twenty-five years of experience in dealing with global energy markets, including production, transportation, demand, energy policy, pricing, and market restructuring.Music by Aleksey Chistilin from Pixabay

Paul Saunders' first experience producing content was helping his good friend Graham Stark participate in a film festival. It was an animated video that took a lot of work to put together, but it was an experience both friends enjoyed. They agreed that consistency is vital to becoming good at something, so Paul had the idea of producing one video per week, with the sole difference of filming rather than using computer animation. And they did; they created and uploaded a new video every week for the next 15 years without missing one. That is how LoadingReadyRun was born. Paul Saunders is one of the Co-Founders of LoadingReadyRun, an independent original shorts and series on YouTube producer. They produce sitcoms like Friday Nights and commodoreHUSTLE, satirical news shows like CheckPoint, a comedy podcast called Qwperline, and a Magic podcast called TapTapConcede. They also create variety and gaming content on Twitch. Since 2007, LRR has helped raise money for Child's Play Party, raising over $7 million for children's hospitals by 2020. LRR content was featured at the Comic-Con International Film Festival in San Diego and won numerous awards at the Vancouver Island Short Film Festival.In this episode, Paul shares a bit of how he got into Magic, videogames, and content creation. We explore the content creation universe, its challenges and rewards, and its bitter and teaching moments. Paul shared his vision on where he thinks the future of gaming is heading and his opinion on VR as a gaming and entertaining device. We also discuss the evolution of the content creator profession and how it was for Paul to fully embrace it.
