Is the U.S. facing a Brexit-like polarization from the rest of the world? Zachary and Emma speak with Gillian Tett, journalist, author, Chair of the Financial Times’ Editorial Board, and Provost of Kings College, Cambridge. They discuss the intentions and longevity of Trump’s tariffs, the positives and negatives of AI on education, and how echo chambers have impacted world politics. Gillian also talks about Europe’s response to US-China trade tensions and the global rise of customized consumer culture.

What Could Go Right? is produced by The Progress Network and The Podglomerate.
