**We will be taking a short mid-series hiatus to record a new batch of episodes and will return in a few weeks' time!**

In Everything is News: Vanguard, Julia and Tom will bring you a series of special interviews with some of the world's leading figures – and unlike the interview strands of other popular political podcasts, these won't just be a way for the hosts to show off using a list of questions prepared in advance by their hard-working staffers. In this episode, Julia and Tom meet Helga Elfström-Bratt, former Prime Minister of Sweden, to discuss her career, her new report into the biggest threats to global prosperity, and her long-running email correspondence with Tom.
