World News of the Week (WNW) with Maya and Dad

What was the cold war? Where is Russia today? Who is Vladimir Putin? Who is Yvgeny Prigozhin and why did his plane mysteriously explode? These are the questions we try to answer in this week's first truly international WNW. And, we even quote "The Wire"!

Welcome to Part B of this week's WNW! We discuss what a presidential debate is, who the participants were (and who they weren't!) and what they discussed, focusing on two highlights that seem to contradict each other!

In part 1 of a two part episode, we give background on the four -- yes four! -- cases in which Donald Trump is a defendant (aka, "Accused"). We also discuss a civil trial in which he was found liable for damages,. We felt like we had to give this context to make sense of our intended WNW,  the first Republican Presidential Debate.... which is our Part B. We promise to discuss international affairs next time!

With the women's world cup concluding soon, we thought it would be a good time to discuss the team's fight for equal pay.  We look back on how far we have come and on how these women have been leaders on and off the field. We also realized, we need an employment lawyer as a guest!

Today,  we discuss the Iowa State Fair, but more so, its importance in the Republican Presidential Calendar.  What is the Fair? Why do candidates go? Is the primary system fair? These are just some of the questions we ask. We also veer into other topics, like... Could former President Trump go to jail before the election? And, because we have no sponsors, we gave a shoutout to... coffee?
