    I found it fascinating beyond just the geopolitics of video cards (although the existence of that right there is wild).

    It’s a really neat look inside China with “real people” (not trade shows, uptight salesmen, or politicians). I don’t speak Chinese but it also seemed like Steve Burke had spent a lot of effort learning. He seems very talented and smart while staying humble. That’s rare.

    Despite it being a 3 hour video about smuggling, the most discomforting thing for me was the left-handed driving in HK and I find that hilarious.

      That’s just his schtick. Dude and his team make other journalists look like dog shit! I dropped some money on them a year ago for merch. The brass Moscow Mule cups made fantastic drinks for my wife and me and the coasters made for really good workplace Christmas gifts for nerdy coworkers! If you’re looking for some holiday gifts coming up, I recommend them. The quality is superb!
