Maritime History with Chris Sams (live and unplugged)

This week I speak briefly about the situaton in the Straits of Hormuz drawing out some dicey historical comparisons.

What has insurance got to do with it?
Why the hell had no one in the Pentagon thought of this?
and What is the solution?
Hopefully this will blow over quickly.
