On today’s episode, hosts Cameron Abadi and Adam Tooze examine the economic policies of the Republican Party and what might happen should Trump win the upcoming U.S. presidential election.

In the second segment, the two look at the debt owed by Ukraine, who holds it, and how it puts yet another painful strain on the country that’s already been devastated by years of war with Russia.
