Description

This week I welcome Henry Olsen back to the podcast. Henry is a senior fellow at the Ethics and Public Policy Center—and has the distinction of being our first repeat guest on the show. We start our conversation on the continent. How has populism, both left and right, fared in Europe in the 21st century? Will the AfD continue its rise in German politics? What about Marine Le Pen and French populism?

After a pitstop in Britain for a discussion of the latest challenges facing the Labour Party, we head stateside. Though he started with the wind at his back, is Trump going too far too fast? Are his unpopular actions going to break apart the populist energy in the United States? Who are the early frontrunners for the Democratic nomination in 2028? Join us for a great conversation on all things politics and populism.

A transcript of this podcast is available on the post page on our website.
