摘要
Friday Focus provides listeners with a focused, half-hour masterclass on the big issues, events and trends driving the news and current events. The show features Janice Gross Stein, the founding director of the Munk School of Global Affairs and bestselling author, in conversation with Rudyard Griffiths, Chair and moderator of the Munk Debates.
The following is a sample of the Munk Debates’ weekly current affairs podcast, Friday Focus.
On this week’s edition of the Friday Focus podcast, Janice and Rudyard start the show with a discussion of the confluence of factors bearing down on Canada this autumn, from labour unrest to overflowing emergency rooms to persistent inflation. What force is driving up Canadians’ collective misery index? Janice and Rudyard share their thoughts and come to a surprising conclusion.
The donors only second half of the program explores what is happening in North Korea and the reason for the latest round of missile launches threatening regional security. Is Kim Jong-un a rational actor? And what, if anything, can be done to reign in his belligerent behaviour?
This podcast is a project of the Munk Debates, a Canadian charitable organization dedicated to fostering civil and substantive public dialogue.
