The Spanish are asking Porque no hay luces? as they scramble to find their lighters. The Hoothis got a suprise from above, while the Navy sent more than just bombs to the bottom of the Red Sea. India is looking to break Ghandi's heart over Pakistan, while Iran had a suprise boom, maybe it's incompetence or maybe its the guys who secretly plant bombs in pagers. Russia and Ukraine decide to take a break from killing each other, find out why its actually bad and hear famed F the EU Vicky Nuland's hot take. Jexico is pissed at Ecuador and a serial killer could be on the loose in New England. Anyone seen Cottongin lately?

- Woof does it again highlighting the Navy dropped more than ball. Their $70 million dollar mistake purchased a legendary work of art! Job well done!

John's Shownotes
Blackout
Energy is produced by synchronous generator-based systems and converter-based systems. Synchronous systems produce AC current; Converter-based systems produce DC that must be converted into AC. Synchronous systems feature inherent inertia which limits the probability of oscillations in current, voltage, and frequency. Converter-based systems rely on synthetic or virtual inertia. This is achieved through software and algorithms. On the other hand, inherent inertia is achieved by the physical, rotating mass of the machinery involved in synchronous power generation. Basically, “renewables” like solar, wind, batteries, fuel cells, and variable speed hydropower are associated with problematic oscillations.
