From there the show pivots to some genuinely juicy palace intrigue: why Netanyahu has spent two weeks trying to talk his way into a White House meeting, how Lindsey Graham's delayed funeral factors into it, and why Trump is reportedly not thrilled with him right now. Ghost also untangles Ukraine's latest prime minister shuffle, connecting the new appointee to Zelensky's inner circle, a hundred million dollar corruption scandal, and a name you will likely recognize if you have followed Kvartal 95. Expect plenty of tangents, some technical difficulties, and Ghost's signature skepticism throughout.","meta_description":"Ghost breaks out the maps for a deep dive on the revival of the long dormant Kirkuk to Banias oil pipeline running from Iraq to Syria, tracing its roots a…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":7671,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/badlands-media-6674661/episodes/geopolitics-with-ghost-iraq-syria-pipeline-netanyahu-snubbed-ukraine-s-pm-shuffle-7-17-26/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/badlands-media-6674661/geopolitics-with-ghost-iraq-syria-pipeline-netanyahu-snubbed-ukraine-s-pm-shuffle-7-17-26.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
