Rare earths, battery tech, and global supply chains sound intimidating, but Dr. Robert Miles somehow makes all of it feel like story time, with the occasional plot twist involving AI, robotics, and why China basically owns the rare earths game. We got into the headaches of lithium-ion batteries, the promise of modular recycling, and what the future of critical minerals really looks like, all while Jacob and Julie asked the wonderfully dumb questions the rest of us are too afraid to say out loud. It’s nerdy, funny, and surprisingly easy to follow, exactly the kind of energy talk that actually keeps you listening.
