What Is the Anti-Trumponomics Agenda?
It’s been a little more than seven months since US President Donald Trump returned to the White House, and much has been made of his administration’s unprecedented actions when it comes to trade, geopolitics and domestic matters. There are plenty of detractors pointing to the downsides of the Republican’s moves, but we hear less about what the US should be doing instead. It raises the interesting question: what would the Democratic alternative be? Host Stephanie Flanders and Noah Smith, a former columnist for Bloomberg Opinion and now a prominent Substack writer, ask whether—if the opposition party returns to power—should it return to the neoliberal policies of the Obama administration, or find its own populist message to match that of Trump? Or perhaps something in between?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Is Economic Self-Sufficiency a Myth?
Host Stephanie Flanders speaks with journalist and author Ben Chu to unpack his latest book, Exile Economics: What Happens if Globalisation Fails. As President Donald Trump calls for the US to break its dependence on foreign imports and bring all production “back home,” Chu pulls back the curtain on what abandoning globalization would actually look like—not in theory, but in the messy, interconnected reality of the 21st century.
