Damian Buckley Talks Weather, Housing Control, and Global Trade Shifts
The two compare hot temperatures in the Northern Plains to frosty mornings in New Zealand, then dig into how urban growth and AI data centers are squeezing cattle ranchers and farmland in Hawaii, Florida, and beyond. From there, the talk turns serious as Trent and Damian question housing policies, property taxes on baby boomers, and warn about growing government control over property ownership. They bring up the World Economic Forum's "own nothing and be happy" idea, 15-minute cities, and even virtual reality tied to basic needs. The episode wraps up with a look at New Zealand's new trade deal with India, immigration trends filling gaps left by aging populations, and how it echoes China's global strategy. It's a can't-miss episode packed with big ideas.
