About this listen

Today’s episode comes straight from the eye of the storm — no deep dive into historical context like usual, because the world isn’t waiting for us to be ready. I meant to record a prepared class, but life (a sick dog + a thrown-out back) had other plans — and honestly, the news these days is the class.

We’re unpacking a world that feels completely untethered: from the latest in Minneapolis where Renee Good — a 37-year-old mother and poet — was shot and left unresponsive for minutes before medical help arrived, sparking protests and national controversy over federal enforcement tactics and use of force, particularly by ICE during a massive immigration operation.

We’ll talk about what it even means when a sovereign NATO ally feels threatened by the U.S., how international markets react to geopolitical brinkmanship, and the uncomfortable reality that the U.S. — long cast as “the good guy” — increasingly looks like something else on the world stage.

I look out at the United States and I don't recognize what I see.
