Mikkel Thorup: Americas Rising & Plan-B Internationalization Amidst the Chaos

Mikkel Thorup: Americas Rising & Plan-B Internationalization Amidst the Chaos

Author: Geopolitics & Empire July 24, 2026 Duration: 55:42
Mikkel Thorup of Expat Money discusses the "sea change" in Latin America, where countries like Colombia and Paraguay are moving toward right-leaning pro-business policies and improved security to counter socialist failures. In contrast, the conversation expresses deep concern over the decline of and flight from Western nations like Canada and the EU, citing high taxes, government hostility, and looming military conscription as primary drivers for emigration. Thorup emphasizes the importance of a Plan B, advising individuals to secure offshore bank accounts, foreign residencies, and tangible assets to protect their freedom and wealth. Ultimately, the talk serves as a guide for navigating a world increasingly defined by technocratic surveillance and economic instability through strategic global relocation.

Tracing the lines on the map that connect past conflicts to present-day crises, Geopolitics & Empire offers a deep and often sobering analysis of how power is projected and contested across the globe. This isn't about surface-level headlines; instead, each episode digs into the historical roots of modern alliances, economic warfare, and the enduring strategies of empires, both old and new. You’ll hear discussions that connect pivotal moments in history to the diplomatic and military maneuvering we see today, providing context that is frequently missing from the daily news cycle. The conversations hosted here are built on the understanding that today’s border disputes, trade wars, and intelligence operations are chapters in a much longer story. By weaving together the categories of history, government, and current affairs, this podcast creates a comprehensive narrative. It’s for anyone who feels that the world’s flashpoints can’t be understood without examining the ambitions, rivalries, and foundational events that set the stage decades or even centuries ago. Tune in for a rigorous exploration of the forces that truly shape international relations, where every treaty, revolution, and strategic pivot is examined for its lasting consequences on the global order.
