In this wide-ranging conversation, we discuss Mohammed bin Salman's Vision 2030, the drive toward normalisation with Israel, and the kingdom's tightening grip over religion and dissent.

AI ethics expert Mona Hamdy joins Stan Stalnaker for a beguiling look at the future of AI and how to get it right, at FII9 in Riyadh, Saudi's Arabia. Part 2 of a 5 part series.

Ahmed Joktan had memorized the Qur'an by heart. Yet through an extraordinary succession of dreams and divine appointments, he became a follower of Jesus. When he shared his faith with a fellow Saudi, the religious police burst in and immediately came and knocked thirteen teeth out of his mouth. Imprisonment, torture, attempts on his life, all meant he had to flee from the land of his birth. The story is simply wild, and his current reach into the Muslim world through social media channels is yielding extraordinary and beautiful results.

Today we were delighted to welcome Dr. Anas Alhajji, Managing Partner of Energy Outlook Advisors and Author of the Energy Outlook Advisors Substack (linked here). Dr. Alhajji is a leading expert on global energy markets. He advises governments, companies, financial institutions, and investors on oil and gas outlooks, energy geopolitics, energy security, and the impact of disruptive technologies on supply and demand. Anas previously served as Chief Economist at NGP Energy Capital Management and taught economics at the University of Oklahoma, the Colorado School of Mines, and Ohio Northern University. He holds an M.A. and Ph.D. in Economics, with a specialization in energy economics and policy. We were thrilled to hear his insights on the oil markets and beyond. In our conversation, Anas explains why mainstream oil-market commentary often falls short, how OPEC's role is to match supply and demand, and shares on-the-ground sentiment from ADIPEC including a focus on AI and “energy addition, not transition,” with OPEC's outlook seeing demand rising toward ~123 mmb/d. We discuss structural demand drivers including urbanization, immigration, rising incomes, and AI/data centers plus autonomous vehicles and the equity valuation puzzle amid inventories and spare capacity. Anas details the “oil on the water” debate including why recent headline numbers were overstated and how different factors from Iranian tankers suddenly broadcasting their transponders, Saudi barrels routed to Egypt but for Saudi-owned storage, Brazilian cargoes diverted to China, slower ship speeds, and others all swell oil-at-sea without adding supply. We explore how Aramco and ADNOC are evolving into global energy companies, why Saudi is leaning on renewables and nuclear to free oil for export, what to make of Saudi rigs and capacity, and why demand analysis should prioritize growth rates over absolute levels given definitional differences and the IEA's repeated upward revisions. Anas argues the IEA has persistently underestimated demand (including major multi-year revisions), contrasts IEA growth figures with stronger observed U.S. demand, and notes record U.S. crude without shale growth. We also touch on SPR strategy, why Anas believes the large 2022 release worked, his critique of “circular information” among agencies, banks, and media plus conformity shaping bearish narratives, the limited efficacy of current sanctions regimes, and much more. It was a wide-ranging discussion and we're grateful to Anas for sharing his expertise with us. To start the show, Mike Bradley noted that the U.S. Government shutdown has reached Day 35, tying the previous record set during President Trump's first term. In oil markets, WTI continues to hover around $60/bbl and is still being impacted by 2026 global oil supply concerns. OPEC+ agreed to raise December oil production by 137kbpd (consensus) but will pause oil production increments in January, February, and March. On the broader equity market front, the S&P 500 is down ~1% this week and looks to be losing some trading momentum after a huge recent run. Many of the Big6 AI/Tech stocks reported Q3 results last week, which were generally solid with AI capex spending budgets heading higher as expected. Over the last week or so, these same AI/Tech stocks were down 3-5% (on average) due to both growing valuation concerns and sustainability of this AI rally. These Big Tech stocks make up >35% of the S&P 500 market-cap, and if they sneeze, markets could catch a cold. Aramco reported quarterly results this week and struck a pretty constructive tone with one of its key highlights this quarter being an increase in their natural gas production capacity growth target (by 2030) to 80% up from 60%. On the E&P equity front, gassy E&Ps have been pretty constructive but aren't leaning into gas growth just yet, while oily E&Ps are taking a more cau

Cristiano Ronaldo BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Cristiano Ronaldo's life off and on the pitch has generated more headlines than most superstars manage in a career, and the past days have been no exception. Fresh off a candid sit-down with Piers Morgan for an interview set to air in early November, the 40-year-old Al Nassr icon has opened up with remarkable transparency about retirement, legacy, and what comes next. According to the Times of India and Piers Morgan's own announcement on X, this latest interview promises to be the most revealing yet, with Ronaldo confirming he's preparing for the end of his legendary career—“Soon, I think I will be prepared,” he remarked, adding that while it will be tough and emotional, he's been bracing for this moment since his mid-20s. He even admitted, “Probably I will cry, yes,” but reassured fans he's eager for life after football, especially more time with his family, his children, and new pursuits like business, UFC, and padel—though he ruled out becoming a YouTuber, playfully teasing that he wants to try “funny things I've never done before.”On the World Cup, Ronaldo's tone has notably shifted. After Portugal's heartbreaking exit in Qatar, he called lifting the trophy his “most ambitious dream,” but in this new interview, reported by Hindustan Times and GhanaWeb, he now downplays its significance, arguing it's unfair to judge a player's greatness by just one tournament. This reversal has drawn both criticism and sympathy on social media, with some fans seeing it as acceptance—or even frustration—after seeing his longtime rival Lionel Messi finally claim the prize.Meanwhile, Ronaldo's business empire continues to hum. He's now officially a billionaire, a milestone he confirmed to Piers Morgan, though he insists money is no longer the driving force. He's extended his Al Nassr contract through 2027, per Sportskeeda, and remains the face of Saudi football, even as he jokes about Riyadh's “terrible” traffic and his preference for a chauffeur over sitting behind the wheel—a rare, relatable quip unearthed by Sport Bible.Family remains central: his son, Cristiano Ronaldo Jr., has debuted for Portugal's U16s, a proud moment Ronaldo likely attended in person, given reports he's prioritizing family time. On the pitch, his next significant match is against FC Goa in Riyadh, according to OB News, keeping him in the spotlight for Indian fans.On social media, Ronaldo teased the Morgan interview with a cryptic photo captioned with just two eyes, sparking speculation and excitement among his 600 million-plus followers. As for Manchester United, he still follows their results wistfully, telling Morgan he's “sad” to see the club's decline but hopeful for a turnaround.In all, these days have shown a Ronaldo in transition—an icon aware his playing days are numbered, candid about his emotions, and already scripting the next act.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

In Geopolitics with Ghost Ep. 54, Ghost unpacks the tangled web of war drums, deep-state deception, and global power plays. The episode opens with Maria Corina Machado,fresh off her Nobel Peace Prize, calling for U.S. military strikes against Venezuela, a move Ghost exposes as a textbook regime-change psyop orchestrated by Western intelligence and global finance. From leaked Pentagon timelines predicting attacks during the “Beaver Moon” to revelations about Wall Street hedge funds salivating over Venezuela's oil, Ghost draws the throughline between economic conquest and spiritual corruption. Dick Cheney's death becomes a symbolic pivot point for dissecting neocon legacies, CIA operations in Mexico, and the U.S. military buildup in the Caribbean. He then expands the scope, connecting cartel wars, Middle Eastern oil manipulation, and the Sovereign Alliance's resistance to globalism. Rounding out the show with Saudi diversification, Microsoft's AI ambitions in the UAE, and Trump's stance on Nigeria's Christian genocide, Ghost ties the week's chaos into one grand geopolitical thriller where energy, ideology, and empire collide.

Cristiano Ronaldo BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Cristiano Ronaldo once again grabbed headlines as he delivered a dramatic brace for Al-Nassr against Al Fayha in Riyadh on Saturday, helping his club retain the top spot in the Saudi Pro League table and maintain their unbeaten run in the 2025-26 season. The match seemed headed for disappointment after Al Fayha scored early, but Ronaldo clinically netted the equalizer in the 37th minute and sealed victory with a cool penalty deep into added time. The spectacle continued after the final whistle when the Portuguese legend treated fans to a joyful Ardah dance right on the pitch, a moment widely shared across social media platforms and featured by the official Saudi Pro League and sports sites globally.With these two goals, Ronaldo's professional tally soared to an astonishing 952, a number unmatched by any player in football history. Just last week, he had reached the unprecedented milestone of 950 goals – setting records not only as Al-Nassr's icon but also as the highest scorer in FIFA World Cup qualifiers. His next ambition, announced in multiple media interviews, is to crack the mythical 1,000-goal mark before ending his career.On the business front, Bloomberg and other financial outlets are reporting Ronaldo's net worth at a staggering 1.4 billion dollars, officially making him football's first billionaire according to the latest Bloomberg Billionaires Index. His Saudi contract now reportedly exceeds 400 million dollars a year, complemented by a portfolio of high-profile endorsements ranging from Nike's lifetime deal to multimillion-dollar partnerships with Armani, TAG Heuer, Binance, and Herbalife. Posts from his Instagram, which boasts over 600 million followers, are estimated to earn him 2 million dollars each, cementing his place as the highest-paid athlete online.The CR7 brand, visible across luxury clothing, fragrances, gyms, hotels, and various investment ventures, continues to expand. Digital sleuths have picked up rumors — still unconfirmed — of new CR7 fitness locations and possible additional Pestana CR7 hotels coming soon. Family life also remains a focus on social channels, with Georgina Rodriguez featured in joint lifestyle posts and international gossip columns crowning them a billion-dollar power couple, balancing football stardom and business savvy.Looking toward 2026, Ronaldo is set to captain Portugal in the FIFA World Cup's expanded edition across the U.S., Mexico, and Canada — arguably one last campaign to add another highlight to his storied career. On social media, fan accounts buzz daily with praise and speculation, from his goal chase and luxurious travels to his next entrepreneurial steps or possible involvement in football ownership and sports documentaries. For now, Ronaldo's continued ability to produce game-winning moments and remain culturally relevant only reinforces his legacy as a footballer and global icon.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

On this episode we speak to John Pagano, the CEO of Red Sea Global, the man leading one of the most ambitious tourism projects in the world and who has also recently granted Saudi citizenship. Saudi Arabia is positioning the Red Sea as a major part of its economic transformation, aiming to create a luxury destination powered by renewable energy and carefully designed to protect its fragile coral reefs and marine life. But can the Kingdom truly rival long-established destinations like the Maldives and Egypt? How will it maintain the balance between rapid growth and real sustainability? And what will it take to turn a national vision into a lasting international success story?

In this lively episode of *The Yard Sign*, hosts Jonny, Anibal, and Marcos Rivera dive into a mix of political showdowns, global deals, and cultural banter with their signature humor. The trio kicks off with lighthearted tangents about punctuality, wedding mishaps, and family antics, setting a casual tone before tackling the government shutdown stalemate. They dissect the Republicans' firm stance against Democrats' demands for $1.5 trillion in Obamacare subsidies, highlighting the hypocrisy and insurance company influence, with Jon Stewart and Bernie Sanders clips underscoring the Democrats' losing battle. Shifting to international news, they celebrate Trump's swift trade deal with China, strategically secured during his Asia tour, while touching on Canada's tariff threats. The conversation veers into Saudi Arabia's lavish spending, from celebrity comedy shows to a flag football tournament featuring Tom Brady, emphasizing the kingdom's push for global legitimacy. The episode wraps with hilarious detours into cologne obsessions, cricket's cultural dominance, AI voice assistants (with a flirty ChatGPT demo sparking chaos), and personal dating stories, blending sharp political takes with unfiltered laughs. **Topic Segments:** - 00:00:22 - 00:04:20: Intro, punctuality banter, wedding stories - 00:04:20 - 00:16:40: Government shutdown, Obamacare subsidies, Jon Stewart clip - 00:16:40 - 00:22:00: Marcos joins, cologne and rich friends talk - 00:22:00 - 00:31:00: Shutdown debate continues, polling and hypocrisy - 01:04:46 - 01:12:00: Saudi comedy, celebrities, flag football with Tom Brady - 01:12:00 - 01:25:58: Cricket, AI ChatGPT demo, dating stories, outro **YouTube Tags:** government shutdown, Trump China deal, Obamacare subsidies, Saudi Arabia celebrities, Tom Brady flag football, Jon Stewart Daily Show, political podcast, Florida politics, trade tariffs, AI ChatGPT, comedy in Saudi, cricket culture, dating stories, The Yard Sign podcast

In this final episode from Saudi Arabia, I travel from the peaceful Red Sea town of Yanbu to vibrant Jeddah – and end the journey at the King Abdulaziz Camel Festival near Riyadh.  Along the way, I meet generous locals at a night market, stay with a kind CouchSurfing host, and visit the world's tallest unfinished skyscraper, the Jeddah Tower, now standing eerily still in the desert. The trip ends in true Saudi style – surrounded by majestic camels competing in a beauty contest with millions at stake. This country has surprised me in every way.

Three Point Stance: Celtics near-miss, Saudi stadium + Patriots-Falcons // If Ted didn't do radio, he'd love to be a football coach // ESPN's Adam Schefter joins with all the latest NFL trade deadline new - more trades to come //

The 2025 World Series has delivered so far, headlined by Monday's 18-inning Game 3 thriller.  Charles and Mike share how long they were able to stay up, as well as their overall thoughts on the Fall Classic from a media and business perspective.  Carlie Irsay-Gordon is revolutionizing NFL ownership, the jerseys stain a Sunday Night Football matchup between two iconic teams, and the Ravens' "honest mistake" regarding Lamar Jackson's practice status could be a costly one.  Plus, Brian Kelly becomes the latest high-profile College Football coach to be fired, Jason's Wormbyte on a sky-high Saudi soccer stadium, and is Mike betting on himself in the Dr. Mike Smith Sports Moment of the Week? 

In an annual post-marathon tradition, Ben and Ricky Dimon catch up on the world of men's tennis, both recent news and the overall stories of this 2025 season that is nearing its conclusion.  We start with the big news from the ATP, who have announced that a new, 10th Masters 1000 event will be added to the calendar win a few years. With complaints about the schedule rampant, what do we make of the addition of a big tournament that no one was really asking for? And what will the ripple effects on the rest of the calendar and the sport be? We also discuss the field of the WTA Finals, the new location of the Paris Indoors Masters, and hand out some of our own year-end awards: what ATP player had the Most Surprising 2025 (Good) and the Most Surprising 2025 (Bad)? Also, who and when will be the next non-Sinner-nor-Alcaraz Slam winner?

In this episode, my travel partner Cynthia and I explore Al Ula in northwestern Saudi Arabia – where ancient culture meets cutting-edge architecture. We stroll through Old Town's 1,300 mudbrick houses, chat with a modern young Saudi woman named Dalal, and marvel at Maraya, the world's largest mirrored building shimmering in the desert. We also test our luck (and our rental car) in the sand again – with a dramatic sunset rescue by friendly locals. As Saudi Arabia opens up to visitors, this mix of hospitality, history, and high-tech design feels like a glimpse into the country's future.

Catherine, David and Matt round up the latest tour results before Charlie Eccleshare of The Athletic joins to discuss the news that Saudi Arabia will be hosting an ATP Masters 1000 tournament from 2028. Part one - Results. We cover lots of Jannik Sinner talking points, including his victory over Alexander Zverev in an excellent Vienna final, his repeated cramping issues, and his decision not to play the Davis Cup Finals. There's also chat about Joao Fonseca's win in Basel, the ongoing heartbreak for Alejandro Davidovich Fokina as he tries to win his first title, Belinda Bencic's victory in Tokyo and her remarkable season coming back from giving birth, and Elena Rybakina booking her place at the WTA Finals. Part two - Charlie Eccleshare reports on the ATP's announcement that a 10th Masters 1000 event will be added to the schedule in 2028 and that it will be held in Saudi Arabia (41:50). We don't yet know all the details, but Charlie explains how this might affect the rest of the tennis calendar, the growing power that Saudi Arabia will hold in the sport, and why we mustn't ignore the human rights abuses. Part three - News and a look ahead (1:08:50). We pay tribute to John Beddington and chat about the Paris Masters. We'll be back on Friday with a full preview of the WTA Finals.

The week we are joined by Jordan from GOAL LINE and The Chick Foley Show! Join us as we ask between WWE and AEW what wrestler is the most long overdue of a world title reign; is it more beneficial or a detriment to storytelling when a wrestler holds multiple titles at the same time in a promotion; and Is a one year non-compete after a firing too far, or if the contract is signed its fair game? It's going to be a fun week here at The Tavern, so to make sure you do not miss anything, go to patreon.com/theturnbuckletavern for all your Tavern needs!

Kevin Nash and Sean Oliver stare straight at the end of the world this week. From doomsday conspiracies and nuclear torpedoes to fake Twitter wrestlers and open carry in Florida, the guys explore what it means to live in an era where every day feels like the last. Nash talks about a 6'10” model, a second moon, his social media firestorms, and what he'd do if given absolute power. Then it's back to sports and spectacle: Monday Night Football vs. Monday Night RAW, Dak Prescott's ceiling, the Lions' redemption, and WWE's billion-dollar balancing act in Saudi Arabia. Kevin opens up about marriage, mistakes, and the hard-earned wisdom that comes after a lifetime of highs, losses, and locker room lessons. It's dark, funny, honest, and more than a little fatalistic. The world might be ending—but Nash and Oliver will still have a mic in front of them.

Today I talk with Professor Nisrin Elamin about the situation in Sudan, where we find both a war between rival factions and these same factions continuing counter-revolutionary campaign against pro-democracy forces. We discuss how regional actors such as the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia have contributed to the repression of democracy, and not only the ineffectiveness of NGOs and the United Nations in quelling the violence, but their roles in exacerbating it.  In the midst of forced famine and war, we find the remarkable and heroic efforts of mutual aid groups and resistance organizations in civil society that have made life possible. Elamin explains how this ethos of obligation reaches far back in Sudanese history and culture. We end by talking about the Sudanese Solidarity Collective, a group that Nisrin helped found, which provides a vital conduit of aid to Sudan from its diasporic communities and others.Nisrin Elamin is an Assistant Professor of Anthropology and African Studies at the University of Toronto. She is currently writing a book tentatively titled: Stratified Enclosures: Land, Capital and Empire-making in Central Sudan which focuses on Saudi and Emirati investments in land and community resistance to land dispossession in the agricultural Gezira region. In addition to scholarly articles, Nisrin has published and co-written several op-eds for Al Jazeera, The Washington Post, Okay Africa, Hammer and Hope and The Egypt Independent. Before pursuing her Ph.D., Nisrin spent over a decade working as an educator, organizer and researcher in the US and Tanzania. She is also a co-founding member of the Sudan Solidarity Collective which formed in the aftermath of the current war to support local emergency response rooms (ERRs) and other mutual aid networks and unions leading relief efforts in the face of a largely absent international aid community and civilian state.

Roger and Grant are back with a bumper Goal/Own Goal packed full of sharp takes, laughs, and the occasional existential sigh. From fiery Scottish football chaos to Fulham's admirable fight against Arsenal, the lads cover it all — with detours into baseball brilliance, darts drama, and a cheeky OnlyFans scandal that has Roger lost for words.

Thoughtful, hilarious, and utterly unfiltered — it's GOG at its best: sport, business, absurdity, and humanity, all colliding beautifully.
