The World’s Most Expensive Divorce: U.S. vs. China Edition

The U.S. and China are locked in the world’s most awkward staring contest, flexing their military muscles, slapping on tariffs, and pretending this isn’t just a power struggle over who gets to be the global landlord. Max Bennett and Lisa Vega rip through the propaganda to expose what’s really happening behind the diplomatic back-pats and economic knife fights.Is this just another round of superpower dick-measuring, or are we actually stumbling into World War III in slow motion? Spoiler: It’s not about freedom, democracy, or "values"—it’s about who gets to call the shots in the 21st century. Follow the money, ignore the PR spin, and buckle up—this ride is getting bumpy.Note: This project explores the new creative potential unlocked by generative AI, showcasing how a single person, in just two hours, can curate (not create, but curate) a polished podcast series.
