In this episode, Charlie and Peter discuss the latest signals regarding a potential war with Iran, including the meeting between Trump and Netanyahu and the deployment of the USS George H.W. Bush. We then zoom out to analyze the behavior of the U.S. as a "flailing hegemon," drawing uncomfortable historical parallels to the appeasement of aggressive powers in the 1930s. Finally, we explore the concept of "spiritual sickness" within Western elites, the Epstein fallout, and what a future Multipolar World might look like under China's rising influence.
