A Very Tin Special: From the Cold War to Supply Shortages

Today we air a long-form episode dedicated to tin, a metal with a long geopolitical history leading to today's supply shortage amongst heavy demand. This story took me further back into history than I was expecting, but the revelation of where the metal was and where it is now completely makes sense to the listener. I want to thank Mark Thompson and Emil Bagge for taking some time to join me and sharing their research and thesis behind the metal. Their insights are extraordinary.
