In this episode, Alex takes a needed break from American politics and turns to talking about Spain and Greece. It is bad news in Greece, as the island of Santorini is in a state of emergency, after over 7,000 small earthquakes have hit the island within a week. Over 12,000 people have fled the island and locals fear what the future of tourism may look like. Talking about Spain, Alex thinks the Spanish government is doing things that the American government should emulate. The Spanish government is testing out a 37.5 hour work week that would apply to retail, agriculture, and hospitality workers. The government is also embracing tourism while looking to regulate short term rentals so that the local population can actually afford rent.
