What if the real power on Earth no longer comes from the ground — but from thousands of satellites orbiting above us?

In this episode, we explore how private satellite constellations like Starlink are reshaping geopolitics, modern warfare, and national sovereignty. From keeping Ukraine connected during blackouts to connecting remote villages in Africa and the Pacific, these orbital networks are rewriting the rules of power in real time.

We look at the opportunities for small nations, the risks of “digital vassalage,” China’s and Europe’s race for independence, and the big questions about space law, privacy, and the future of borders.

A must-listen for anyone who wants to understand the hidden forces shaping our connected world.
