  • Experience Economy Episode SKIP

    I typically love this podcast. But the Experience Economy episode was unlistenable. They kept talking over each other. A lot of side or inside jokes about each other. I just couldn’t listen anymore. I come to this podcast for news and facts. If I want the View, I’ll watch it on TV.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

If Hungary Can Do It
Q: You've been reporting on Orbán's Hungary for years. What did you mean by calling his election loss a turning point?
Applebaum explains that the defeat signals a potential reassertion of reality in a system that had relied on manufactured threats and propaganda, showing that a democratic populace can push back against illiberal governance when real problems are addressed and people stay engaged.
Trump Is Wishcasting Victory in Iran
Q: Did you think he was going to go through with the threats?
The consensus was that it wasn't impossible, but would have likely triggered a constitutional crisis and involved military actions that the armed forces might resist, suggesting the threats were not credible as a practical plan.
Is the U.S. Running Venezuela or Not?
Q: What is the plan for the day after Maduro?
Vivian indicates there are mentioned options without a clear plan on how to proceed, particularly regarding military loyalty and political transitions.
Is the U.S. Running Venezuela or Not?
Q: What should we be keeping our eye on to see how this unfolds?
Vivian suggests watching how Delcy Rodriguez responds and how the White House reacts to her statements, particularly in the context of US military actions.
Is the U.S. Running Venezuela or Not?
Q: How did Trump sound and what did he tell you?
