And you need to know this.

You need to know this if you're young, because... A world that's rife with apocalyptic fear-mongering is one that will demoralize you. You need to know this if you're going to have children because you have to understand what kind of world they could inhabit and what kind of world the doomsayers will doom them to if the narrative is wrong.

And I don't know anyone who knows more about this and who's a more thoughtful and informed speaker about such issues than Scott. And so do yourself a favor and pay attention to this podcast. So Scott, I thought I'd start this with a bit of a story from Spain. I received this today, found this today from the Telegraph, which I sometimes rate for.

As you know, most people watching perhaps know, or at least some do, the whole country faced a blackout and more than the country, right? Into Portugal and France as well. Just a few weeks ago, I think it was the biggest, well, it's described in the Telegraph as the worst electricity failure in any developed country in modern times. So another number one for Spain.

The stench of a cover-up hangs over Spain's giant blackout. Faith in the current investigation has reached rock bottom. The socialist government of Pedro Sanchez is trying to buy time with explanations that either make no technical sense or veer into absurdity.

The government seems to have pushed the pace recklessly before making the necessary investments in a sophisticated 21st century smart grid capable of handling it.
