Join Greg Karlstrom, the Middle East correspondent for The Economist, and Max Rodenbeck, the South Asia bureau chief, as they dive into pressing global issues. They discuss the fragile ceasefire in Yemen, painting a picture of a complex political landscape fraught with skepticism and humanitarian concerns. The conversation shifts to 'The Kashmir Files,' exploring its controversial portrayal of history and its political ramifications. Plus, hear about the surprising rise of cricket in Brazil, especially among women, showcasing the sport's evolving landscape.
