This is a sample of the Munk Members-Only Podcast. The program provides listeners with a focused, half-hour masterclass on the big issues, events and trends driving the news and current events. The show features Janice Gross Stein, the founding director of the Munk School of Global Affairs and bestselling author, in conversation with Rudyard Griffiths, Chair and moderator of the Munk Debates.
This episode digs into three big stories in the news: COVID case numbers plunge globally; why is this happening and what does it mean for the future of the pandemic? — Facebook blocks news sharing on its Australian platform; is the latest overreach by Big Tech the beginning of a new regulatory push by governments? — Texas freezes in the dark; does the collapse of the Lone Star states energy grid a powerful case for renewable energy or proof positive that fossil fuels are here to stay?
