Ep. 35 - U.S. Healthcare System

The complex nature of the United States’ healthcare system may seem normal to American citizens, but to other countries, it is a mess entangled within itself. However, healthcare is an argument that both Republicans and Democrats agree on because the system needs to be changed. In this episode, YuYu and Spencer compare and contrast other healthcare systems and what makes the topic still relevant today.

33 | France's Presidential Election

In late April 2022, France held a presidential rematch between Emmanuel Macron and Marine Le Pen. The difference between the results of 2017 and 2022 was only seven percent, which indicates a potential rise of populism and nationalism in France. While the polarization in France is real, YuYu and Spencer work to answer an imperative question: Has polarization benefited Macron?
