Cheryl should do an interview with Cara Swisher. She has to have a tough interview, she can't be on soft interviews. Do you think Cheryl's going to be splashy like the gates or quiet like Lauren Poggs jobs and Mackenzie Scott? I don't know. And technically it was two separate $1 million donations at different times. But when I look at someone like Mackenzie Scott, I'm like, that's the way you go with the big numbers.
Nouriel Roubini, a.ka. "Dr. Doom," became famous for predicting the 2008 global financial crisis. Now, he is back with another grim forecast, in his new book, "MegaThreats: Ten Dangerous Trends That Imperil Our Future, And How to Survive Them." He and Kara discuss the book, his prediction that we’re headed towards a stagflationary debt crisis, and US-China relations. Dr. Roubini also explains why cryptocurrency is fundamentally flawed (in fact, he thinks it’s less sophisticated than what the Flinstone’s had).
Before the interview, Kara and Nayeema discuss Sheryl Sandberg’s new report, “Women in the Workplace,” a joint venture by her organization, Lean In, and McKinsey & Company. And they talk about China’s president Xi Jinping — who is leaning into a third term as General Secretary of the Chinese Communist Party.
