In the Company of Mavericks - Europe's crisis of competence with Doomberg The Brawl Street Journal

In the Company of Mavericks - Europe's crisis of competence with Doomberg The Brawl Street Journal

24 October 2025

In this Episode, Progressive’s Jeremy McKeown is joined by two of his favourite Substackers, Doomberg and The Brawl Street Journal.

Both of whom have recently written about the future of Europe and its predicament in a rapidly changing world. And from their differing perspectives, they both agreed that it is not good.

So, earlier this week, Jeremy brought them together to share their views, one from the perspective of an experienced trade dispute lawyer and former policymaker in Berlin, the other a straight-talking energy analyst and green chicken from his coop in midwestern American flyover country.

They discussed the factors that have led Europe to its current position, its role in a multipolar world, and its struggles to adapt to these new, urgent realities.

In short, they agree that the consequences of current established European policies will likely lead to a collapse of the EU; a consequence of the delusion, incompetence and intransigence of its established political class.
