On this episode of That’s What I’m Saying!, Shaun and Shatara dive into a powerful breakdown of why gas prices are rising — and why it’s not as random as it seems. From global conflicts to shifting energy control, the conversation explores how wars in Ukraine, Israel, and tensions in the Middle East are impacting oil supply and driving up costs at the pump.The hosts unpack what they call a global energy reset, explaining how countries competing for oil, supply rerouting, and control over refineries are creating a bidding war that ultimately affects everyday consumers. They also discuss how defense spending, geopolitical strategy, and infrastructure ownership are quietly shaping the future of global power — and why following the money tells the real story.This episode connects the dots between world events and daily life, showing how rising gas prices are tied to larger economic shifts, market opportunities, and long-term energy control. It’s a thought-provoking conversation that blends current events, economic insight, and real talk from a sometimes ratchet, but mostly woke perspective.👍🏽 Like, Comment, Share, and Subscribe—it helps the show grow and keeps this community strong.Watch on our NEW YouTube channel @therealtwispodInstagram: @twispodFacebook: @thatswhatimsayingGot a question for the Weekend D* Report?Want to Leave a Voicemail Message?Looking for Merch and Everything TWISPOD?GO TO OUR LINK: linktr.ee/twispodFor Shatara’s upcoming comedy shows, podcast appearances, and TV events, visit www.shataracurry.com
