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.
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
