Dive into the world of groundbreaking journalism with our host as he interviews one of the best journalists in the world, Pepe Escobar. Renowned for his witty writing style and profound understanding of geopolitics, Pepe is a true roving nomad who goes beyond the confines of traditional foreign correspondents. Unlike those stationed in a single city, Pepe's global travels grant him unparalleled insights into the seismic geopolitical transformations of our time.

In this engaging interview, we explore Pepe's visionary perspectives, from predicting a multipolar world in 2008 to his early recognition of the Belt and Road Initiative's potential in 2013. With a career spanning continents—from Brazil to London, Los Angeles to Paris, and eventually to Asia—Pepe has been a prolific writer for Asia Times and other notable publications.

Join us as Pepe shares his piercing, bold, and critical analysis of global events, covering regions like Russia, Iran, China, Europe, and Latin America. We'll also delve into his views on current conflicts, including the Ukraine conflict and the war in Gaza, providing a comprehensive overview of the dangerous times we live in.
