A New Series of Expert Discussions

We have been working diligently behind the scenes, scheduling discussions with a multitude of experts on a variety of topics. On January 2nd, we will release an episode with an AI expert, launching a series of interviews dedicated to the field of artificial intelligence. This series promises to unveil the complexities and future possibilities of AI, a field that's reshaping our world.

Regular Commentary and Updates

In addition to these expert talks, our colleague Mike Mihajlovic will join Lena in bi-weekly segments to provide commentary on current events. These regular updates aim to keep you informed and engaged with the unfolding global scenarios. As for myself, I will continue to contribute through audiopodcasts in our "Black Mountain Talks" series, sharing my perspectives as time allows.

Rumble

As suggested by you, we have created a Rumble channel. The final URL will follow, but you can already subscribe to the channel here. We will upload the videos a bit later. We plan to release all videos simultaneously. Visit our Rumble Channel

The Completion of Economics and Empires 6

A significant milestone for me this year was the completion of "Economics and Empires 6". This latest installment in our series will be published within the next few hours, if not by tomorrow. I eagerly await your engagement with this piece, which promises to deepen our understanding of global economics and geopolitics.

New Year Wishes

To all our readers, we extend our warmest wishes for a Happy New Year. May 2023 bring you health, happiness, success, love, and joy. To our Orthodox readers, we extend these wishes for when your celebrations begin.

A Prayer for Global Peace

Finally, we aspire for peace for all people across the globe and naturally, we pray for it. May the new year be a harbinger of greater understanding, collaboration, and harmony among nations and communities.

With all our love,

Aleks and the BMA Team
