Alright there everyone. I've got a wonderful treat for all of you today. A lot of you asked me where I get my news from, or what are some of my favorite channels on YouTube.

1:00.0

Well, I decided I'm not going to tell you who's my favorite channel out there. I'm going to bring them to you.

1:07.0

Alexander Christophero and Alexander McCurries of the Duran. I know many of you guys know them. You write in about them all the time.

1:15.0

When we have our insiders club, you talk about, well on the Duran they were saying such and such, and I have nothing to add generally speaking.

1:21.0

I love their work. I love Alexander's dog in particular. He's the most famous dog I think around the around the world.

1:29.0

2:40.0

So if you look at Cyprus and Alex will talk about this more, I mean, you know, it's a battle. It's been a battleground for centuries.

2:46.0

And of course, a 40% of the island is occupied by another country by Turkey. So that already makes you geopolitically minded.

2:56.0

Now, I myself, I should say we're both Greek. In Greek, Greece politics tends to be or has historically been very dynastic.
