Welcome to Trade Splaining, the podcast that makes sense of international trade, business, and expat life without putting you to sleep! In our first episode of 2025, Rob and Ardi dive into a new year of trade predictions, global trends, and some surprising insights about life, business, and...sausages?

In This Episode:

  • 2025 Trade Predictions: What’s in store for global trade and why tariffs, insurance, and inflation will dominate discussions.
  • China’s Record Trade Surplus: How near $1 trillion exports reveal vulnerabilities in domestic demand and fuel trade tensions.
  • The Role of Insurance in Climate Economics: With the world heating up, we explore the escalating costs and the ripple effects of uninsurability.
  • Labor vs. Capital: As 2025 unfolds, who has the upper hand, and what does it mean for workers?
  • New Apps, Old Vibes: Michelle talks about the shifting digital landscape and why the U.S. government’s TikTok actions may have unintended consequences for cultural learning.

Other Highlights:

  • A look back at tantalum, the rare metal behind cutting-edge watches and electronics.
  • Sausage bars in Geneva? Yes, it’s a thing now!
  • Why Eurovision in Switzerland might just be worth your time (or not).

Fun Fact: This is episode 73, the atomic number of tantalum, tying it all back to international trade and rare resources!
