This week on the show, Fareed speaks with Catherine Rampell, opinion columnist for The Washington Post, about the US government's narrowly averted shutdown and the consequences of America's addiction to government spending. Then, an all-star foreign policy panel with The Economist's Zanny Minton Beddoes and Richard Haass of the Council on Foreign Relations. They speak about the West's waning support for the war in Ukraine, America's gerontocracy, and what the fighting in Nagorno-Karabakh says about Russia's geopolitical influence. Plus, Fareed talks to Fatih Birol, the Executive Director of the International Energy Agency, about whether it's the beginning of the end for fossil fuels.
