Hey, welcome to Omnibus. We are in the middle, or the beginning, actually, of our spring

0:12.8

fund, friend, and hellraiser period. We're not going to bore you with a lot of the details today

0:17.6

because you already know the drill, but it's happening. It runs for,

0:21.7

we'll call it a month. We've had some debate over the days because I can't math very well.

0:27.5

And I made a mistake in the email. So we're just going to say that it's running for a month.

0:31.5

And there you have it. Everybody's coming through and doing what on fuckers do to support us.

0:37.4

You know the drill.

0:38.5

We don't gate any of our content, not on the podcast, not on YouTube, not with our free

0:44.5

weekly newsletter, not on the website.

0:47.4

We try to do as much as we possibly can because that's the whole point of doing this thing

information. But the good news is we're going to go through a pretty easy path for the next

1:13.3

over who actually said what and if anybody actually agreed to it and it looks like Israel did not

1:18.7

agree to it. But that's okay because they're only bombing Lebanon, but they might also be

1:24.5

bombing Iran and they've opened up the strait of Hormuz except that

1:27.8

they closed the strait of Hormuz after about, I think it was two or three hours. So that's closed again,

1:33.9

but I'm sure it'll open back up. There's no damage to any of the oil infrastructure except for

1:39.1

most of the Gulf region. So that's pretty good news as well. And everything should revert back to

1:43.9

the norm and back to the mean, which means we're in pretty good shape, not just as as Americans,

1:49.5

which is obviously the most important thing, but the global economy is going to repair itself.
