Joshua & Jason discuss the fact that India dropped its tariffs on Scotch whisky from 150% to 75% with the aim to drop them down to 40% over the next 10 years. This is a boon to the Scotch whisky industry especially during these slower times. Also, what's the best age to bottle Scotch whisky at? The boys pontificate this somewhat ridiculous, highly subjective, question. ...as usual, have a seat, have a pour, and listen in. Unless you're driving. If you're driving, be smart and stay sober but be sure to listen into the conversation!

Welcome to Top of the Morning by Mint.. I'm Nelson John and here are today's top stories. Operation Sindoor: Modi's No-Holds-Barred Warning to Pakistan In a fiery 97-minute address in Parliament, PM Narendra Modi revealed India's retaliatory strikes after the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack that killed 26 civilians. “In 22 minutes, we responded to April 22,” he said, confirming that India bombed nine terror camps in PoK and Pakistan, followed by air raids on 13 military bases. Modi claimed Pakistan's nuclear threats were ignored and over 1,000 missiles and drones fired on May 9 were neutralized by Indian air defence. “No one in the world asked us to stop,” he stressed, countering opposition allegations of U.S. pressure. “Operation Sindoor is still on,” he warned, promising continued force against terrorism and accusing the Congress of echoing Pakistan's narrative. Trump's Trade Threat: 25% Tariffs on India? President Trump has warned that India could face tariffs up to 25% on its exports to the U.S. “India's been a good friend, but they charge more tariffs than almost any other country,” he said aboard Air Force One. The threat comes as a temporary tariff truce is set to expire on August 1, with no deal yet in place between the two nations. While countries like the UK, EU, and Japan have sealed trade pacts with the U.S., India has held back on fresh concessions. Instead, it will resume comprehensive trade talks mid-August. U.S. officials say India must open its markets further or risk losing access. Mayday at 5,000 Feet: United Airlines 787 Scare On July 25, United Airlines flight UA108 to Munich suffered a left engine failure shortly after take-off from Washington Dulles Airport. The Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner issued a Mayday alert at 5,000 feet and circled for 2 hours and 38 minutes to safely dump fuel before returning to Dulles. All passengers were safe. The incident came just a month after the Air India Dreamliner crash in Ahmedabad that killed 260 people. Days earlier, an American Airlines 737 MAX 8 also faced an emergency in Denver due to cabin smoke and a tyre-related landing gear issue. Multiple incidents now put Boeing's aircraft safety back in the spotlight. Air India Audit Uncovers 100 Safety Violations Just weeks after the fatal Flight 171 crash, the DGCA flagged 100 safety-related lapses at Air India following a detailed July audit. Among them: pilot fatigue breaches, simulator shortcomings, and inadequate route checks for high-risk airports. One major violation involved a Milan–Delhi 787 flight exceeding duty hours by over 2 hours. Auditors also found flights operating with insufficient crew and no chief pilots for the A320 and A350 fleets—signaling poor oversight. Air India has until July 30 to explain its corrective actions. With multiple show-cause notices issued, the airline's post-Tata revival now faces a credibility test amid mounting passenger concerns. Rupee Nears 87 as Dollar Demand, Trade Uncertainty Weigh The Indian rupee slid to 86.9150 per dollar, its lowest since March, before closing at 86.8150. It's now one of Asia's worst-performing currencies this year—down over 1%, alongside the Indonesian rupiah. Traders blame rising dollar demand from importers, weak foreign portfolio flows, and uncertainty around U.S.-India trade talks. Exporters who stepped in at 86.50 may only return near 87.10 levels. RBI is expected to hold rates steady at its upcoming policy meet, monitoring transmission of past measures. Globally, the dollar index neared 99 after a pro-U.S. EU trade deal. Investors now await the Fed's decision and Powell's tone for rate-cut cues. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Formed in 2007, the quartet—comprising Gurdip Singh Narang (bass), Aaron Pinto (drums), Kaushal LS (vocals), and Prateek Rajagopal (guitar)—is celebrated for their relentless intensity, precise musicianship, and savage songwriting. Their music blends grinding riffs, pummelling blast beats, vicious bass grooves, and chilling guttural vocals, establishing them as a critically acclaimed act in the global extreme metal scene. With a career spanning 18 years, Gutslit has toured extensively, performing in 25 countries, a record for Indian metal bands, including regular European festival runs and a recent Japan tour supporting Nile in October 2024.Now, it's Australia's turn. Gutslit are set to embark on their first-ever Australian tour - titled the Party Down Under '25 tour - this August, marking a significant milestone as they bring their explosive live performances to six cities. Organized by Grindhead Productions, the tour kicks off on August 22, 2025, at The Back Room in Brisbane, featuring support from Australian brutal death metal band Gosika (Wollongong, NSW) and, for the Brisbane show, additional acts Snake Mountain and Nembutolik.HEAVY caught up with Narang and Pinto to find out what we can expect."I formed the band 18 years ago," Narang began, giving us some incite into Gutslit, "with the whole idea of just playing music that we love the most. Back then we started off with brutal death metal and grind, and now we are slowly progressing into thicker versions of death metal and brutal death metal coming together.""When Gutslit started, there was no band who was doing music like what we are doing." Pinto added. "So Gurdip and the previous iteration of Gutslit were the pioneers of brutal death metal and brutal death grind in India."We mention Gutslit's reputation for their intense live shows and ask what we can expect."You have to come down and just throw it out there," Narang replied. "It's all about enjoying the music; it's all about enjoying the multiples. If you're into death metal or brutal death grind or brutal death metal or slam, you're going to get it all."In the full interview, Gurdip and Aaron provided an overview of Gutslit's history, highlighting their influence in the brutal death metal scene in India since 2007 and their connection to Australia dating back to 2012. They detailed the tour's structure, which will feature a mix of songs from previous albums and potential covers, with an emphasis on creating an engaging atmosphere for fans.The band expressed excitement about the local support acts in Brisbane and other cities, and the inclusion of Gosika as the national support act. We talk about touring a country for the first time and how much homework they do before coming, their difficulties in gaining global traction coming from India, new material and more.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.

The third and final livestream of the book tour celebrating the publication of Bordertown Clashes, Resource Wars, Contested Territories: The Four Corners in the Turbulent 1970s Hosted by Red Power Hour co-host Melanie Yazzie at the Inspired Moments Event Center Farmington, New Mexico. Watch the video edition on The Red Nation Podcast YouTube channel Press Release: "From the late summer of 1972 to the late summer of 1974, John Redhouse and many other Navajo and Indian rights activists threw all they had into mass movement organizing and direct action. And they were pretty good at it too in terms of effectiveness and impact. Written in the first-person and above all, with a collective spirit of generosity and witness, John Redhouse describes the hot temper of the times in the racist and exploitative border towns in the Four Corners area of the Southwest region. As John Redhouse says, “Without the People, you have nothing. But back then, we had a lot of people WITH us.” Yes, the Power of the People, the collective human spirit of the emerging local and regional Indian civil movement, thousands of us marching in the streets of Gallup and Farmington in northwestern New Mexico with our demands. A bold citizen's arrest at city hall, a downtown street riot, burning images of enemy leaders in effigy. And more marches, demonstrations, and direct actions. Above all, though, there was that Spirit—that unbroken, unconquerable spirit—that moved us, that drove us, that led us. And that was just in the border towns. In that turbulent decade, there was also the rapidly rising and spreading with-the-people, on-the-land resistance struggles in the coal, uranium, and oil and gas fields, and in disputed territories in the San Juan and Black Mesa basins that were targeted for ethnic cleansing and mineral extraction. Bordertown Clashes, Resource Wars, Contested Territories: The Four Corners in the Turbulent 1970s brings readers to the enduring issues of the day, traced over half a century ago, where John Redhouse and many more were in the middle of a revolution that unfolds to this day."

This episode of the Lloyd's List Podcast was brought to you by Veson. Visit veson.com for more information. MOST end-of-life ships usually meet their demise on the beaches of the Indian subcontinent or Aliaga in Türkiye, with the ship recycling industry not being known for a culture of safety or environmental consciousness. But the long-term efforts of NGOs, regulators, flag states, shipowners and the recycling industry have done much to improve things in recent years. This culminated in the landmark Hong Kong Convention for the safe and environmentally sound recycling of ships entering into force on June 26 this year. Lloyd's List markets editor Rob Willmington spoke to recycling industry stakeholders to find out why the Hong Kong Convention is so significant and what its implementation means for shipowners. At the same time, we asked following three years of negligible ship recycling because of strong shipping markets, when will the sale of old ships finally start to pick up again? Joining Rob on this week's episode are: Anil Sharma, chief executive, GMS Tone Knudsen Fiskeseth, principal consultant, Environment Advisory, DNV Nikos Mikelis, chairperson, Ship Recycling Alliance Hitesh Vyas, vice-president Middle East and green recycling coordinator, Wirana

In this episode of All Things Policy, Yusuf Unjhawala is joined by Anupam Manur for a deep dive into the evolving and unpredictable landscape of U.S. trade policy under Donald Trump. They talk about the credibility of the threat of secondary tariffs on India for buying Russian oil, the impact on India if the said policy goes through, and the policy options available to the Indian administration. They also discuss the effect of these and other ad hoc tariffs on the ongoing trade negotiations between India and the US and how it can undermine confidence in the trade deals. Finally, they examine the trade deals that the US has signed with the UK, the Philippines, Vietnam and Japan to find patterns in the agreements. They use these insights to speculate on how India could navigate through the bumpy terrain of Trump's tariffs.All Things Policy is a daily podcast on public policy brought to you by the Takshashila Institution, Bengaluru.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Find out more on our research and other work here: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://takshashila.org.in/research-areas⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Check out our public policy courses here: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://school.takshashila.org.in⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

It’s our birthday week, month, YEAAAR. Maed in India turns 10 and we’re still feeling emo, nostalgic, and very, very proud. As we blow out the candles on a decade of discovering awesome Indian independent music, we’re throwing it back to one of our most jam-packed years yet: 2016. We dropped a wild 45 episodes that year - a fever dream of folk, punk, blues, alt-rock and more. While most bands are still kicking and many others have bloomed onto the scene, some vanished into the great indie abyss, and others live on only in our headphones and hearts. Tune into this Best Of special to hear everything from the then up-and-coming The F16s, "suburban" punk band Punk on Toast, Gowri Jayakumar in her many avatars, and much much more. We also feature the heart-on-his-sleeve Vernon Noronha, virtuoso guitarist Aditya Balani singing long songs, and a musical breakdown by guitar nerd Warren Mendonsa. This re-release is introduced by our Head of Video, Jishnu Guha, who once sang on our mic and now spends most of his time making sure our videos come to life. He’s here to remind you (and himself) why we’re still doing this 10 years later. So hit play and celebrate the year 2016 that was part music, part existential crisis. Song List: Gowri - WaterLilly (03:29 - 06:06) The F16s - Blackboard (07:13 - 10:33) The Tripp - Minor Blues (11:21 - 14:21) Vernon Noronha - Come Back Jack (15:09 - 20:34) Warren Mendonsa - Folkish Three (21:30 - 23:04) Punk On Toast - For Hire (23:44 - 26:33) Barefaced Liar - Chocolate (27:17 - 30:01) Aditya Balani - 1979 (30:41 - 34:03) Come be our friend: Instagram @maedinindia Twitter @maedinindia CREDITS: Host: Mae Instagram: @maemariyam Twitter: @maebemaebe Producer: Shaun Fanthome and Meghna Gulati Sound Edited & Mastered by: Kartik Kulkarni Artwork: Alika Gupta

Much of world history is Indian history. Home today to one in four people, the subcontinent has long been densely populated and deeply connected to Asia, Africa, Europe, and the Americas through migration and trade. In this magisterial history, Audrey Truschke tells the fascinating story of the region historically known as India--which includes today's India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, and parts of Afghanistan--and the people who have lived there. A sweeping account of five millennia, from the dawn of the Indus Valley Civilization to the twenty-first century, this engaging and richly textured narrative chronicles the most important political, social, religious, intellectual, and cultural events. And throughout, it describes how the region has been continuously reshaped by its astonishing diversity, religious and political innovations, and social stratification. Here, readers will learn about Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, Islam, and Sikhism; the Vedas and Mahabharata; Ashoka and the Mauryan Empire; the Silk Road; the Cholas; Indo-Persian rule; the Mughal Empire; European colonialism; national independence movements; the 1947 Partition of India; the recent rise of Hindu nationalism; the challenges of climate change; and much more. Emphasizing the diversity of human experiences on the subcontinent, the book presents a wide range of voices, including those of women, religious minorities, lower classes, and other marginalized groups. You cannot understand India today without appreciating its deeply contested history, which continues to drive current events and controversies. A comprehensive and innovative book, India is essential reading for anyone who is interested in the past, present, or future of the subcontinent. Audrey Truschke is professor of South Asian history at Rutgers University, Newark. She is the bestselling author of Aurangzeb: The Life and Legacy of India's Most Controversial King and other books.

You may agree that the so-called hard problem of consciousness exposes the deep inadequacies of a materialist worldview. But the alternatives - various forms of panpsychism, panentheism and idealism - raise rich and fascinating questions, too. In this episode of The Sheldrake-Vernon Dialogues, Rupert Sheldrake and Mark Vernon explore the leading edge of consciousness research, with Rupert just back from The Science of Consciousness Conference 2025 in Barcelona. They discuss the impact of Indian researchers of consciousness and the proposals of microchip inventor, Federico Faggin. They consider trainings in extra-ocular vision and questions thrown up by the hit podcast series, The Telepathy Tapes. One thing is clear: when the materialist paradigm passes, the science of consciousness will have only just begun.For more on Rupert's work see - https://www.sheldrake.org/For more on Mark's work see - https://www.markvernon.com/

What does it mean to inherit a sacred tradition? Alam Khan was born into one of the most revered lineages in Indian classical music - his father, Ali Akbar Khan, was hailed as one of the greatest musicians of the 20th Century and brought the spiritually rich sarod and rāga music to the West. But Alam's journey has not been one of simple inheritance. Presenter Rajeev Gupta follows Alam across California, from his father's grave to the family music school and into the quiet spaces where Alam seeks refuge. For Alam, it is a deeply personal wrestle: growing up American, immersed in rock and hip-hop, Alam resisted the weight of legacy. But after his father's death, something changed. Going through his father's recordings, he felt a cosmic calling - one that was more spiritual than familial. This episode of The Documentary, comes to you from Heart and Soul, exploring personal approaches to spirituality from around the world.

Non-duality is the profound view that only one Reality exists and that you are essentially That! This unitive vision of one-ness, this harmony of all things resonates so deeply in the human psyche, perhaps because we all of us sense the underlying unity beneath and beyond all seeming diversity! But as you know, there are many different kinds of Non-Dual traditions all around the world, each articulating this revelation of one-ness in different ways owing to the unique experiences of the sages to whom such revelations occurred. And because we are all different and because we all respond to different things at different times of our spiritual journey, its nice to compare some of the different non-dual traditions that have emerged in the Indian subcontinent so see what they each have to offer. We have something to learn from every tradition, after all! In this talk, after comparing a few different schools of Advaita, I make a case for Somānanda's vision: an Advaita of radical agency, a kind of theistic monism that seeks to be as inclusive as possible of everything without reducing anything to void or illusion! This kind of Tāntrik non-duality, which we will unpack together over the course of the next few lectures, uniquely offers a world-affirming, life-affirming, action-oriented one-ness! This talk is part of a series on Somānanda and includes talks like Somānanda's Radical Non-Dual RevelationRace, Gender, Environment & Ethics in Non-Duality | Vijñāna-Bhairava Tantra, Verse 105 Is My Coffee Mug Conscious? | Paramārthasāra, Verse 37 andPanpsychism in Tantra | Vijñāna-Bhairava Tantra, Verse 105Support the showLectures happen live every Monday at 7pm PST and Friday 10am PST and again Friday at 6pm PST.Use this link and I will see you there:https://www.zoom.us/j/7028380815For more videos, guided meditations and instruction and for access to our lecture library, visit me at:https://www.patreon.com/yogawithnishTo get in on the discussion and access various spiritual materials, join our Discord here: https://discord.gg/U8zKP8yMrM

In this deeply personal and powerful conversation, Bart Berkey sits down with global speaker, activist, and content creator Spencer West — known for climbing Mount Kilimanjaro on his hands and redefining what's possible. He is more than a gentleman without legs; he is a human being with heart. Together, they explore what it means to be kind to yourself, how to ask for help, and why we must create space for others while owning our story. From his viral TikToks to his upcoming book Breaking Free, Spencer shares lessons on resilience, identity, burnout, leadership, and the power of showing up authentically. Major Takeaways / LearningsStart With You: Kindness Begins Internally Leaders and changemakers often overlook self-kindness. Spencer reminds us: You can't pour from an empty cup. Start by being gentle with yourself, especially in moments of stress or uncertainty.Asking for Help Is a Strength, Not a WeaknessSpencer shares moving stories—from climbing Indian temples to emotional breakdowns—that prove the most powerful leaders are the ones willing to be vulnerable and ask for help.Your Platform Is a Privilege—Use It to UpliftAs a queer, disabled individual, Spencer chooses to speak out—not for attention, but to educate, advocate, and help others feel seen. “I could stay silent. But I won't.”Redefine Possible (Literally)Climbing Mount Kilimanjaro on his hands wasn't just symbolic—it raised over half a million dollars to provide clean water for 12,500 people for LIFE. Purpose turns pain into impact.Burnout Is Real—Even When You Love the MissionWhile working for a nonprofit, Spencer traveled over 100 days a year and realized hustle culture had taken over. The pandemic forced a reset, teaching him to prioritize therapy, rest, and joy.Offer Help—But Always Listen FirstHelp should be consensual. A well-meaning stranger once lifted Spencer's wheelchair into a car without asking—violating trust and autonomy. Spencer's advice: Offer. Pause. Respect the answer.Leadership During Difficult Times Requires HonestyIn hard times, don't rush to solutions. Acknowledge what's difficult. Sit in discomfort. Then gather your people and move forward together.Representation Matters—and So Does BalanceSpencer balances speaking, social media, and activism with family, fun, and fulfillment. He urges others to explore what they want and need—then pursue it unapologetically.Most People Don't… Stop to Ask What They Truly Want or NeedSpencer's answer to Bart's signature question hits home: “Most people don't take the time to figure out what they want and need.” The first step toward fulfillment is pausing long enough to reflect.Memorable Quotes“Just hang on until the scenery changes. Because it always does.”“I want to use whatever platform I have to raise awareness—and infuse it with heart, humor, and honesty.”“Helping without listening first can do more harm than good.”“Being kind to yourself is learning to ask for help.”“Leadership isn't having all the answers. It's creating space for the truth.”Why It Matters / How to Use It:This episode is a guide for anyone navigating leadership, identity, burnout, or uncertainty. Spencer teaches us that real strength lies in vulnerability, listening, and authenticity. Whether you're managing a team, raising a family, or simply trying to make it through the day—Spencer's story will move you to pause, reflect, and lead with heart.Instagram - @spencer2thewestTikTok - @spencer2thewestFacebook - Spencer West (page) Linktree - “spencer2thewest”Website - Spencer2thewest.comBart Berkey: MostPeopleDont.com | LinkedIn

The UK has finally signed a free-trade deal with India after three-and-a-half years of negotiation. The agreement will open up trade for cars, whisky, clothing and food products, with ministers claiming it will boost the British economy by £4.8 billion. For Keir Starmer, it offers much-needed economic and political good news. For Indian prime minister Narendra Modi, it shows that the £3 trillion Indian economy is willing to shake off its protectionist tradition and open up to international investors.Lucy Dunn discusses with James Heale and Michael Simmons.

In the latest episode of LIT NYC, host Katie Honan talks with author Radha Vatsal, a speechwriter at city hall by day, to discuss her new novel about old New York, No. 10 Doyers Street, and “a past that was not as black and white as we make it out to be today.” Vatsal, an immigrant herself, explains how she came to tell a story of Chinatown in the early 1900s as seen through the eyes of Archana "Archie" Morley, the only woman at her newspaper and one of just a handful of Indian immigrants in New York City at the time. While her editor and husband try to steer her away from covering notorious gangster Sai Wing Duck, AKA Mock Duck, Archie chases down the story of his adopted daughter being taken away from him by the city as it also plans to raze Chinatown.

Depending on who you ask, some would call the ultrarich “shameless”; others might say “aspirational.” For example: Mukesh Ambani, the Indian centibillionaire, has a room of snow in the Indian tropics—to say nothing of his skyscraper home, 168-car garage, and 600-person-staff. And celebrations for his kids' weddings featured Rihanna and Beyoncé. This is nothing new. Aristotle Onassis had whales' teeth carved into pornographic scenes from The Odyssey, and stools upholstered in whale foreskins which he kept aboard his yacht—because where else would you keep that? And one hedge-fund billionaire—whose name you won't even know—bought a 14-foot shark preserved in formaldehyde. Why? Why not? These opulent displays of wealth just scratch the surface. There are blood boys, Basquiats, and bunkers, many of them in New Zealand for the end of the world. From the Kochs to the Kardashians—most of us cannot look away. But one question remains: Do Americans loathe or love the ultrarich? That's one of the questions raised by Evan Osnos's new book, The Haves and the Have-Yachts. Evan is a staff writer at The New Yorker and an author—several times over. In his newest book, he investigates how this class of people—the “Have-Yachts”—got their money, how they spend it, and how they fight to keep it. It all paints a fascinating picture not just about America and capitalism, but about human nature and the status games we play. The book feels eerily relevant in this moment of social and political breakdown, fueled—perhaps above all—by rage at the economic picture and economic inequality. As Zohran Mamdani—the self-proclaimed socialist and likely future mayor of New York City—says, “Billionaires should not exist.” And anti-elite sentiment grows on the right, too—through voices like Tucker Carlson and Marjorie Taylor Greene. Today on Honestly, Bari asks Evan Osnos what this level of income inequality means for America, if a revolt or a revolution is in our future, and how AI is going to supercharge an already precarious status quo.
