Simon Rabinovich, The Economist's U.S. economics editor, and Aaron Rowe, obituaries editor, dive into Nigel Farage's return to the political arena ahead of a major election. They discuss the potential impact of his candidacy on the Conservative Party and the reshaping of British politics. Switching gears, they critique the poor value for taxpayer-funded sports arenas while highlighting the need for smarter public investment. The conversation also pays tribute to William Anders and the significance of the iconic 'Earthrise' photograph that sparked environmental awareness.
