Focus on Africa - Iran’s president begins Africa tour

Iran’s president Ebrahim Raisi has kicked off a three-country tour of Africa. His trip to Kenya, Uganda and Zimbabwe comes as the country is trying to create new economic relationships, in order to mitigate the impact of sanctions imposed on the country by the United States. Plus, we look ahead to the upcoming elections in Gabon. Victory for incumbent Ali Bongo and his family dynasty looks a virtual certainty, before the vote even takes place. And with Wimbledon underway, South African wheelchair tennis star Kgothatso Montjane tells us about making history at this year’s French Open.

Time To Say Goodbye - Fukushima’s toxic tail and Ramaswamy’s media blitz

Hello from Honolulu! 

It’s just us this week, trading places: Tammy is home in humid Brooklyn, and Jay is on the road, visiting family in Hawaii! (6:00) First, we discuss the planned release of 500 swimming pools’ worth of radioactive(?) wastewater from Fukushima, which has spurred lousy takes from Beltway types and a run on salt in South Korea. (19:10) Next, we look at Vivek Ramaswamy’s long-shot candidacy for President and try to discern what the entrepreneur brings to a flailing Republican Party. 

In this episode, we ask: 

Was “Mad Men” a good show? 

How does the Fukushima conversation serve as a barometer for China–Japan–South Korea relations? 

Is Trumpism analogous to Modi-ism? 

Are we doomed to have an amoral, debate-brained candidate in every Republican primary? 

For more, dig into: 

* Regional reactions to the wastewater plan at Fukushima 

* Images of Vermont’s floods and the proximate climate apocalypse 

* Sheelah Kolhatkar’s jealousy-inducing profile of Vivek Ramaswamy for The New Yorker

* DeSantis’s jump-the-shark hate ad

* Our May ep about the American Prospect’s Tucker Carlson piece (and its backlash): Karaoke soft power + left media cowardice

Big Technology Podcast - Is Threads The Next Twitter Or Clubhouse 2.0? — With Zach Coelius

Zach Coelius is the managing partner at Coelius Capital. He joins Big Technology Podcast for a conversation about Threads' real potential, asking whether it's a redux of Clubhouse — destined to fizzle — or a real threat to replace Twitter. In this conversation, we cover Threads' potential, Elon's effort at Twitter, and whether we can really make assessments from the outside. Stay tuned for the second half where we discuss the venture capital environment and how Coelius' investments are performing. We also look at the demise of MediaMath, a once-leading ad-tech company that just went bankrupt.

The Intelligence from The Economist - AI-pocalypse: predicting the threat from artificial intelligence

Wiping out a tenth of the world? Possible. Wiping out all of humanity? Less likely, but not entirely impossible. We examine how two groups of experts have arrived at these worrying predictions about AI. Education is giving hope to inmates in a maximum security prison in New York (11:17). And, on Britain’s working men’s clubs which have nurtured rock bands for decades (18:00).

Code Story: Insights from Startup Tech Leaders - S8 Bonus: Sharekh Shaikh, CleverX

Sharekh Shaikh has an interesting background, having grown up (almost) on a farm in India, within a small town. He spent most of his time with animals and pets, more than people, and followed his father around as he travelled for work. He is big into motorbikes and reading philosophy, specifically stoics, and tends to read the older books over newer podcast or material. He's also trying to learn piano, but admits he's struggling in that arena.

When Sharekh was working for Gartner, he faced a problem around fraud, using online services for research. When he thought more about this, he decided he wanted to build a platform fueling market research... built on transparency and trust.

This is the creation story of CleverX.
