The Narrative Ep. 80: The Strait Truth

A rare solo outing. Burning Bright kicks off Episode 80 by taking full credit for its title, one of the cleverest plays on words you have probably heard in the last few minutes, if not your entire life. No guest was lost. He simply wanted to get the ideas out of his head before they pile up like bad cache in a CPU.

Only his second solo stream ever, this one doubles as practice and as a table setter. Starting into September he plans to alternate solo weeks with guest weeks, pending audience reaction.

The substance is a State of the War address. Expect a run through his eight pieces of the Iran War thesis, the Strait of Hormuz as "Schrodinger's Strait," global energy and the oil cartel angle, and how the same template maps onto the Taiwan situation so you can keep a level head when the narrative arrives.

Pure pattern recognition, delivered with his usual dry confidence.
