Globalization, as we once knew it, is dead ... well, that's according to the UK's new Chancellor of the Exchequer, Rachel Reeves.
Chancellor Reeves has run the UK Treasury since July 2024. She's facing an economic backdrop familiar to many countries: hollowed-out industrial towns; climate change; global wars and conflicts.
Today on the show: Our conversation with Chancellor Reeves on her visit this week to the US. What she thinks went wrong with globalization, and the new economic map she's coursing.

Everything Everywhere Daily - The GOATs
In any sport, there is always one debate that comes up. It comes up year after year, and it has been around for as long as sport has existed.
The debate is about who is the greatest of all time, or in common parlance, who is the GOAT?
Every sport has its own contenders for the GOAT. In some sports, the GOAT is pretty easy to identify. In others, it isn’t quite so clear.

NPR's Book of the Day - Juli Min’s novel ‘Shanghailanders’ unfolds in reverse
At the start of Juli Min's debut novel, it's 2040 in Shanghai, and a wealthy real estate developer is parting ways with his wife and adult daughters at the airport. But as the story progresses, Shanghailanders moves back in time, slowly unraveling the dreams, decisions and mistakes of the members of this family all the way back to 2014. In today's episode, Min speaks with NPR's Ailsa Chang about why she decided to write the events of the book in this order, and how the city of Shanghai is a character all on its own.

The Indicator from Planet Money - The debate at the heart of new electricity transmission
The U.S. wants to become a net-zero emissions economy by 2050. That will mean a lot of new generation from renewable energy. It also means more transmission networks are needed to bring it onto the grid.
But there's a debate over how that new transmission should be built — between a competitive or monopoly approach. Today, we look at why competition is so divisive and why each side thinks they should build the next generation of transmission infrastructure.

Everything Everywhere Daily - The Manhattan Project
During the Second World War, the United States embarked on one of the greatest science and engineering projects the world had ever seen.
Over 100,000 people took part in the program, the vast majority of which had no clue what it was for, and the total cost of the program was in the billions of dollars, at a time when a billion dollars was a lot of money.
The end result was the most devastating weapon ever created, and it fundamentally changed the world.
Learn more about the Manhattan Project and how the atomic bomb was created on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
