Child Labor
Max (I believe is the one that was speaking about this topic recently) had his very passionate cover about child labor. To an extent, I agreed with a lot of what he said. Sure, 14/15 may be a little early to being working. But a few times he brought up 16 and 17 year olds? Maybe I missed a piece but is it absurd to let 16 and 17 year olds work, within reason, part time to earn some extra cash? Gas money? Maybe saving for college? Maybe construction in the sense of helping carrying materials, or working on a farm.. where does the line get drawn and why? I’m curious of Krystal and Saagar’s take on this.
Krystal's background as CPA
Hey guys...love the show. Krystal has mentioned working in accounting as a CPA, but is reluctant to talk about it on air. How has that experience shaped your worldview and helped your journalism career? Are there any skills you learned from getting a CPA you still use today?
Might you interview Pepe Escobar?
Have you guys thought about interviewing Pepe Escobar? He done a lot of interesting reporting including this interview in The Cradle of Russia's top macroeconomics strategist on Russia/China possibly challenging the hegemony of the petrodollar. https://thecradle.co/article-view/22457/interviews
South America Communism/Socialism
Would love to hear your thoughts on the China takeover of South America. Argentina recently sold out to the socialists, now Brazil elected a president who is very cozy with Far Left governments around the world, especially in their region (Venezuela, Cuba, etc.). Would be even more dope if you guys can get Glenn Greenwald on to talk about this topic specifically. Aside, BP is incredible! I'm a big fan of the whole lineup. Congrats on everything so far, looking forward to the future expansion.
Future of CNN
What if CNN spent some time and money boosting their "local" coverage? Would be cool to see the revival of local journalism. National news is great and all, but local news have become extremely shallow. Seems like an opportunity for CNN to get closer to their audience, and find the new identity they are looking for.
