In case you missed it ... highlights from recent episodes, including a media rabble-rouser on Disney's summer from hell; The Economist on China's slowdown; interviews from my book, Hotel Scarface; and a candid self-appraisal of where we want to take this show as it approaches 10 years on the air.

Veteran media executive and producer. Professor. Consultant. Evan Shapiro, a self-described "media-universe cartographer," dishes uncomfortable analysis on the disruption of Hollywood. That turmoil just reached a tipping point with cable-co Charter's feud with Disney, parent of ESPN.

China's economy is grappling with all sorts of challenges, from a property / banking bust to high youth unemployment and and aging population. Can Beijing plan its way out of this slide? What are the implications for emerging markets, which haven't excited investors in more than a decade? Guests: The Economist's Alice Fulwood and William Blair's Vivian Lin Thurston.

Nine years after Full Disclosure's debut, a creative self-audit -- featuring co-producers Claire Morgan and Case Graham ... and, back by popular demand, my little brother Ronnie Farzad.
