President Trump just announced sweeping reciprocal tariffs on nearly all U.S. trading partners, sending markets tumbling and economists into a frenzy. Ravi breaks down what the news means for the economy, the political implications, and what to make of the eerie silence from former GOP free traders.
Then, Ravi is joined by Sam Ashworth to talk about his debut novel The Death and Life of August Sweeney, a gripping story that blends fame, fine dining, and forensics. They unpack the misunderstood world of autopsies, question the myths fed to us by pop culture, and examine the medical field’s quiet move away from the practice. Sam also shares stories from his time in Michelin-starred kitchens and how that intense world helped shape the novel.
