Geopolitics & Empire

Long-form interviews with academics, authors, and experts who challenge mainstream narratives on global conflicts, economics, and power structures.

The brief

A deep-dive interview podcast that gives a platform to experts, academics, and analysts who are often critical of Western foreign policy, globalist institutions, and mainstream media narratives. Conversations focus on dissecting complex geopolitical conflicts (like Russia-Ukraine), the underlying economic and energy drivers of global events, and the perceived decline of US hegemony. The show consistently features perspectives that view current events as a struggle for dwindling resources and a shift toward a multipolar world order.

Unlike many geopolitical podcasts that feature journalists or establishment figures, Geopolitics & Empire deliberately seeks out credentialed experts with contrarian and often pessimistic viewpoints. The host acts more as a facilitator, allowing guests to deliver long, uninterrupted analyses from a perspective that is consistently critical of Western power structures.
