I'm someone who watches Gary all the time. I have been on Steve's Podcast (twice) talking about energy and modelling. I have repeatedly asked Steve to find a way to have Gary on.

@Leah-ju8ht Well there goes how little you know. Gary is NOT a socialist. You might call him a socially aware capitalist, but he is NOT a socialist.

@BiggusDiggusable Don't know Steve's not doing podcasts at the moment which sort of sucks. He and the team need to find ways to keep the podcasts going.

HEY STEVE - When are you doing podcasts again. I have new information on ENERGY to discuss. 1) Australia's cost of living crisis like many others is being driven by energy prices either in part or as at least a major driver. My simple explanation is like one of Gary Stevenson's "look at the cash flow" explanations. - If households are paying more for energy then they have less money to spend on goods & services or to put into savings or investments. - That is also happening when all those goods and services are becoming more expensive because all the companies supplying those goods and services are also paying more for energy and those costs get passed onto consumers. - So if energy prices go up households get hit from both sides. They pay more for energy and have less money to buy things as those things become more expensive. I call this the double energy choke because its like 2 nooses around you neck pulling in different directions. - This means ordinary people have less potential to save or invest and grow wealth which is one of Gary's main points. 2) Australia's renewable system like many others is being mismanaged by the energy regulator who is a gaggle of economists. There are no engineers in the system at all. The whole show is driven by economists. I also heard that Britain has the same sorts of issues. There's a YT channel Economics Help and he did a video titled "The Uncomfortable Truth Why UK Energy Prices are so High" and he's mostly right but not 100%. He's definitely RIGHT on the management and contracts side because he might as well be describing Australia. 3) You NOT buddy Bjorn Lomborg did a video for the Alliance for Responsible Citizens (yeah that's BS) and blamed the energy crisis on green energy policies. Its here on YouTube.

@alldeeplearning949 First of he doesn't claim to know things nobody else knows. Steve claims that MAIN STREAM don't know and don't understand a number of fundamentals about how economies actually work BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT TAUGHT THEM. I'm an engineer and I can tell you that MAIN STREAM economists know nothing about engineering and especially the major supply systems of energy and water as well as infrastructure. Yet they are constantly trying to manage these things with market solutions WHICH DO NOT WORK. If you ever want your power bills to come down then start listening.
