À propos du podcast
Welcome, listeners, to another exciting debate on today's news headlines. We have an array of diverse and challenging topics to delve into: from the implications of higher interest rates on households and financial institutions, to international politics and changing relations between Russia and Africa and the immense political stirrings in Israel around Prime Minister Netanyahu's judicial overhaul. We also throw some light today on the private life of a former first lady, a controversial court acquittal of a popular actor, and the questionable financial route of a debutant House Member. And as we continue in our journey around the globe, we tackle a contentious issue in higher education, an open admission of a pop star in Japan going against the social norms, a look into what lies in the future for Israel and lastly, the inflation woes that are making the jobs of big consumer companies and the Federal Reserve, a bit more complicated.To discuss all this, today we have two remarkable and passionate speakers with us. First, let us welcome Chris, an esteemed author and journalist hailing from Kansas City who has made deep strides in literature, politics, and cultural critique while being a proud atheist. On the other side of this intellectual table, presenting a faith-based perspective on these issues is Jacob, a learned Rabbi, who calls Los Angeles his home.
