Manage episode 508264427 series 3427094
Matt Ehret and Ghost take listeners on a global tour of intrigue, from the fallout of Charlie Kirk’s assassination to the shifting alliances shaping the Middle East and Eurasia. They break down Trump’s fiery UN speech, the odd “malfunctions” that marred it, and his high-stakes meetings with Arab leaders and Erdogan. The discussion moves into Israel’s maneuvers in Syria, the looming specter of a land war with Iran, and the deeper game being played with NATO and Turkey. From Kazakhstan’s record-breaking $4 billion rail deal with the U.S. to China and Russia’s nuclear and infrastructure partnerships, the hosts trace how railroads, energy, and geopolitics are fusing into a new map of power. Along the way, they expose the dangers of transhumanist ideology, AI “saints,” and psychological operations designed to warp faith and culture. This episode ties together history, current events, and the battle for the future in the style only Breaking History delivers.
