The Geography of Energy
What do Roman oxen, Civil War currency, Iranian oil, Chinese refineries, and your latest trip to the gas pump have in common? More than you might think. This week on The Personal Wealth Coach, Jake McClure takes a globe-spanning look at the geography of energy and the surprisingly persistent role location plays in shaping economies, conflicts, and prices. From Rome’s dependence on Spanish livestock to the economic divisions of the American Civil War, Jake traces the recurring relationship between energy, technology, geography, and power. Then he brings the story into the present, examining the Strait of Hormuz, the Red Sea, Iran, Yemen and the Houthis, Russia’s damaged energy infrastructure, and China’s enormous appetite for imported oil. Along the way, he explains why shipping chokepoints thousands of miles away can matter to prices here at home. And if that weren’t enough geography for one podcast, Jake turns to inflation, the Federal Reserve, oil prices, and the technological changes that could ultimately reshape the world’s energy map. History has a habit of rhyming, and this episode makes the case that sometimes the best way to understand where the economy may be headed is to pull out a map and look at where it has already been.

The AI Ecosystem
What happens when America finally starts rebuilding its industrial muscle, and then argues about every factory, power line, and data center along the way? This week, Jake McClure dives into one of the most overlooked economic stories unfolding right now: a massive wave of investment in U.S. manufacturing, semiconductor plants, data centers, and electric grid expansion. From billion-dollar chip fabs and reshoring efforts to the surprising economics of solar power, Jake explores why the country is spending trillions on the infrastructure of the future while many communities push back against the very projects they say they want. Along the way, he connects today's debates to the industrial revolutions of the past, examines China's challenges with excess manufacturing capacity, discusses the changing nature of work in a technology-driven economy, and explains why major investments in infrastructure and education have historically fueled long-term prosperity. If you've ever wondered what America is actually building, who is paying for it, and why the headlines seem so conflicted about it, this episode offers a fascinating look behind the noise. The next economic transformation may already be underway, even if most of us are too busy complaining about it to notice. This episode was recorded on September 11, 2026.

America’s New Factories
This week, Jake McClure takes a closer look at one of the biggest economic stories hiding in plain sight: America's factory boom. While headlines focus on protests over data centers, power lines, and industrial projects, billions of dollars are quietly flowing into semiconductor fabs, grid expansion, energy infrastructure, and advanced manufacturing facilities across the country. The irony? Many of the same communities demanding more jobs, more electricity, and more domestic production are fiercely opposing the projects designed to deliver them. Along the way, Jake explores why societies often resist the very changes they claim to want, from steel mills and power lines in the early 1900s to chip factories and data centers today. He connects America's current manufacturing resurgence to global trade, China's industrial overcapacity, the future of energy production, and the surprising economics driving solar power, data centers, and grid investment. If you've ever wondered what's really being "manufactured" in a digital economy, why history keeps repeating itself, or what today's infrastructure boom could mean for the next decade of growth, this episode offers a fascinating perspective on the forces quietly reshaping the American economy.

Tariffs, Trade, and the Geography of Adaptation
What do beef prices, Vietnamese factories, cardboard boxes, toilet paper, and inflation have in common? According to Jake McClure, a lot more than you might think. In this episode of The Personal Wealth Coach, Jake explores the "geography of adaptation," the often-overlooked ways people, businesses, and entire economies adjust when the rules of the game change. From tariff battles and shifting global supply chains to the surprising rise of Vietnam as a trade powerhouse, he connects today's headlines to lessons from history, including the Smoot-Hawley tariffs and the Great Depression. Along the way, you'll discover why the internet may be partly responsible for changes in the Southern timber industry, how cardboard shortages led companies to rethink shipping, and why inflation continues to feel painful even as income growth, savings rates, and credit trends are telling a more encouraging story. This episode is part economics lesson, part detective story, and part reminder that adaptation is often the hidden force behind progress. If you've been wondering whether the economy is really as bad as it feels, or if there is good news hiding beneath the noise, this conversation is worth your time.
