This episode discusses a big-picture idea with practical relevance: history doesn’t just move forward — it moves in cycles.

Civilisations rise, stabilise, fragment, and regenerate. The same rhythm shows up in markets, technologies, institutions, and yes, even careers.

If you’ve felt like the ground is shifting — in your industry, society, or personal path — this episode will help you make better sense of it, and show you where to look for the next wave.

In about 10 minutes, this episode explores how oil operates as a system of influence across geopolitics, macroeconomics, business risk, and environmental tipping points.
