Hello and welcome to Brokonomics now in this episode I would like to tell you that I've secured an interview with

Vladimir Putin unfortunately I haven't but Tucker Carlson did and we've got the transcript of a two-hour interview from that and he made some

absolutely fascinating points about history and the dollar and the role of the

U.S. and the power centers in the U.S. now all of that is absolutely right up

my street the combination of the influence of the dollar

Global politics, geopolitics all that kind of stuff is exactly what we cover here on Broeconomics

So I felt that I had to respond to this and specifically really get into some of the comments that he made about

The what what happened to to Russia after 1991 and it wanted to try and join as Putin calls it the family of

civilised nations and how he was rebuffed from that, what he thinks is going on with effectively the CIA

when he's talking about the American decision makers and of course the role that the

dollar has and all of that.

There's also a lengthy bit of history in the front which I will cover fairly briefly

of course as you know Broken Comics is not a history channel.

My history is not great.

I think I'm pretty good post World War II,

particularly post- 1971.

YouTube for Apostolic Majesty he he did a fantastic deconstruction of the first sort of 30, 40 minutes

and the history elements that Putin was talked about.

I have watched that, I will touch upon it. In that

video Apostolic Majesty was making, was going into the nuance that Putin did not go into and criticizing Putin

when he felt that criticism was was was wanted and agreeing with him
