There's a lot going on in the world (recap of international news over the last week)
Description
It can be really overwhelming to try to understand everything that's going on in the world when you have no idea where to start. However, there's a lot going on in the world right now politically, and if you travel the world, I truly believe that you are obligated to keep up with international politics. So this episode, I am using my background/education to help break down 3 (kind of 4) of the most relevant and pressing political issues of the past week. Again, I do have a degree in international relations that helps shape my perspective while I travel the world, so I hope my analysis helps you better understand these complicated issues. Starting with the recent horrifying developments on the genocide in Gaza, then the misinformation surrounding the fraudulent elections in Venezuela, then the student riots that ousted the Prime Minister in Bangladesh, and finishing with some brief thoughts about the new official democratic ticket for the upcoming terrifying US elections.
