Foreign Policy economics columnist Adam Tooze, a history professor and a popular author, is encyclopedic about basically everything: from the COVID shutdown, to climate change, to pasta sauce. On our new podcast, Tooze and FP deputy editor Cameron Abadi will look at two data points each week that explain the world: one drawn from the week’s headlines and the other from just about anywhere else Tooze takes us. Check out Adam Tooze’s column at https://foreignpolicy.com/author/adam-tooze/.

The Future of Republican Economics
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. They also discuss how issues such as a stricter immigration policy and higher tariffs could have an adverse impact on inflation and how much weight should be given to campaign messaging versus the realities of enacting law.
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.

Getting to Know Kamala Harris
On today’s episode, hosts Cameron Abadi and Adam Tooze discuss electoral politics in the United States and Britain. In the first segment, the two look at the career of U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris. Harris is being talked about as a potential replacement candidate for Joe Biden should he decide to no longer pursue a second term. The second segment analyzes the economic ramifications of the recent U.K. elections, where the Labour Party won in a landslide, ushering in new Prime Minister Keir Starmer.

Lessons from the Weimar Republic
As the U.S. presidential election draws closer, hosts Cameron Abadi and Adam Tooze look at how the current climate of elevated inflation and economic discontent translates into political instability. They focus their attention by comparing these times to Weimar Germany, an era that lasted between World War I and the rise of the Nazi dictatorship. That brief democratic period also famously had high inflation and eventually collapsed into outright dictatorship. In this episode, the two dig into the economics of Weimar Germany and consider where exactly the analogy with the United States lines up and where it doesn’t.
Special thanks to listener Nick Page for the idea for this episode.

Customer Reviews
In an age of self promoting charlatans
And fake experts, Adam Tooze stands out as one of increasingly rare real experts. One of the best free programs you could listen to.
Exhilarating
The Kant episode was a tour de force of compression & celerity, yet unfailing clarity as well. Thank you for rousing this slumbering dog, gentlemen.
Adam is a smart cookie
Probably my favorite liberal econ or politics pod. Adam is brilliant and eloquent on a huge variety of topics, and intellectual renaissance man. Credit to FP for sponsoring such a proudly Keynesian project, though I do find the Amazon Ring ads problematic (that is a malevolent product).
