It's the End of the World As We Know It (And We Feel Fine...More or Less...Well, Not As Bad As You'd Think)

In a moment that a global pandemic has you self-quarantined and social distancing and a global market collapse has you terrified about the future and bad leadership has you curled up on under your bed, there is only one perfect solution! Listening to a podcast. That's what's called finding the silver lining. Can we find them with the multiple calamities that have befallen us in the past few weeks (and years...well, since the dawn of time if you want to be accurate)? That's one of the things we discuss with Sharon Weinberger, DC bureau chief of Yahoo News, Ed Luce of the Financial Times, Kori Schake of the American Enterprise Institute and Rosa Brooks of Georgetown Law. Don't miss it (especially when the alternative is interacting with other people who are likely to be teeming with germs). This episode of Deep State Radio is brought to you by The New Yorker.
