I joined Scott Horton’s YouTube channel to discuss my latest article.
The first 16 minutes of this interview are mostly chitchat, and I’m a bit nervous and stumbling with my words early on. I’m still getting my reps in with public speaking, so thanks for bearing with me. I did at least finally upgrade to a proper professional microphone instead of relying on broken AirPods, which is progress.
Around the 16-minute mark we move past the small talk and into the substance of the article. Once the discussion gets going, I hit my stride and we end up having a genuinely engaging conversation about Venezuela, empire, interventionism, and the political economy of sanctions and regime change.
If you’re inclined to watch, I’d recommend starting at 16:00.
