Episode Synopsis

Palestinians in Gaza are beginning to starve as Israel continues to block humanitarian aid from coming in, with Israeli-U.S. aid efforts being overrun on the ground. Russia is preparing for a summer offensive in Ukraine while Zelensky shores up support from allies around the world and Trump even starts to get irritated with Putin. And the U.S. economy is taking one on the chin, with more tariff stuff from the White House and the “Big Beautiful Bill” passing in the House, despite business leaders and, well, everyone having something to dislike about it. Then, in Have You Heard Headlines, Erin & Jake break down the rest of the week’s headlines to keep you in the know about what is happening in the rest of the world. This podcast turns into an article summary at each week's episode over on Substack.
