The Power Hungry Podcast: Ideology, energy, and everything

When I said at the end of last year this one will see interviews added to this newsletter I certainly did not mean me getting interviewed. However, this appears to be what has happened this month, after the Power Hungry Podcast’s Robert Bryce, energy author and journalist, got in touch because of my brutal attack on ideological drivel.

The result of that interaction in is the link below. In the video, you will find out that:

• my accent is all over the place, my RP days long gone

• I’m much worse at speaking than I am at writing

• people from Eastern Europe, especially those over 40 and I don’t mean me, could be valuable as advisers on anything resembling a centrally planned economy, which is the way the EU is going

• the geopolitical Big Bad Wolf narrative is convenient but rarely true even if you truly, madly, deeply dislike that Big Bad Wolf for personal or historical reasons

• there is realistically only one way we can become less of a pain for the environment and it would be next to impossible to do it
