Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

S9 Ep10: How many people die when the US cuts foreign aid?
Q: What will other countries do to step up in light of the cuts?
While some countries like Nigeria are trying to fill the funding gaps, the timing is difficult as many major donors are also cutting foreign aid, making substantial replacements unlikely.
S9 Ep10: How many people die when the US cuts foreign aid?
Q: When the US cuts foreign aid, how many lives are lost?
Estimates suggest that USAID saves around 3 million lives a year, with potential cuts leading to the loss of up to 700,000 lives annually.
S9 Ep8: The economic consequences of living longer
Q: What can policy do about this?
Policies should promote health investment and address age discrimination to enable older individuals to work and participate meaningfully.
S9 Ep8: The economic consequences of living longer
Q: What does it mean for society if our thinking about aging hasn't evolved?
It suggests that resources will be spread more thinly and the potential contributions of older individuals may be undervalued.
S9 Ep4: Do stablecoins threaten financial stability?
Q: Do multi-issuer stablecoins create financial stability risks?
Yes, they can create financial stability risks due to insufficient reserves and regulatory loopholes, particularly in cross-border scenarios.
