Reads: They Knew the Strait Would Close. That Was the Point.

About this episode

In January 2026, US forces seized Nicolás Maduro and announced they'd run Venezuela through a transition. The stated prize was the oil. Nobody pretended otherwise. Zach reads his original piece pulling the thread from Nixon closing the gold window to the petrodollar handshake to Venezuela, Libya, Iran — and the uncomfortable possibility that the Strait of Hormuz closing was the planned outcome, not the disaster. Plus: what if the great power rivalry is, at the altitude where real money moves, less of a cage match and more of a script? And what you can actually do about it.

Documented facts first. Tinfoil hats firmly resting in cold hard truth.
