Books

anybody have book recs/other media sources for understanding geopolitics and/or macroeconomics 

i want to be able to better understand and participate in conversations about what’s going on in the world

podcasts:
the red line
history 102
live players 
school of war
warcast
decoding geopolitics (becoming one of my favs)  https://youtube.com/@decodinggeopoliticspodcast?si=fFLRPdwNxyBUahQt

imo “the red line” is maybe the best place to start. it’s the least wonky, and covers wide variety of locales from geopolitical perspective that you won’t see covered elsewhere

also i meant econ 102 — not history 102 even though history 102 is def one of my favorites its not rly about geopolitics

also if too long didn’t listen, to summarize: geopolitics mostly means guns
