    Ep 24 - Is U.S. Heading For Its Longest Government Shutdown?

    Producer: Liu Chang Hosts: Wang Zongnan & Aiwei The U.S. government shutdown is stretching dangerously close to a new record. In this episode, we’ll unpack what’s going on and what makes this crisis different from before. Highlights: The current shutdown has lasted 34 days—just one day short of breaking the record by the time this episode is released. We’ll see if it does. The impact is spreading: federal workers snapping under stress, endless lines for free meals, airport security grinding, and public spaces closing down. And we’ll ask a bigger question: why does this one feel so directionless? In past shutdowns, someone was at least trying to end it—but not this time.
