Breaking History Ep 87: Geopolitical Update with Special Guest, Alex Krainer
Alex Krainer joins Gordon and I in this week's episode of Breaking History where we dive into the latest geopolitical shifts, analyzing Saudi Arabia’s growing role as a global power broker, the anomalous ceasefire talks between Ukraine and the USA which appear to be designed to fail, and what these moves mean for the future of the unipolar world order.
We also break down the real reasons behind MBS’s strategic alliances, the Western establishment’s desperate attempts to hold on to control, and why the multipolar system is no longer just an idea, it’s becoming reality.
Plus, an in-depth discussion on the battle over energy, nuclear power, cultural warfare, and the financial system that will shape the next era of human civilization. This one’s a deep dive into the forces shaping the world’s future.








Good discussion, and thank you for bringing on Alex Krainer!
Apropos looking for good movies, check out these 1970's Russian films. The first is a classic, the last two are comedies poking fun at aspects of the Soviet system. All evince deeper humanity and elements of the Russian Soul (which was not lost during the Soviet period!)
1. Moscow does not believe in tears https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NTWA_7-ld_U
2. The Irony of Fate https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ms5Ga6kNvHM (popular New Years Eve movie!)
3. Office Romance (Slushebni Roman) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mi4gQMDgB_g
Enjoy!
I watched this 3 times to process the in depth information. I have followed Alex on other platforms as well as his Substack. I live part time in Europe so have a vested interest in keeping up to date with all the mindless shenanigans. Both Matt and Gordon make me appreciate the fact that the world is still safe in the hands of the thinking young and informed.
These 3 big brained guys are awesome - as individuals and together. Breaking History is a must watch every week for me. I learn so much these days - something we did not have available to us years ago. Better late than never to come to the table. Great show today and every week. I hope to see Alex there again and more often.
