Descriptions:
We’re back with another episode of The Week, a new weekly show from Prof G Media, hosted by George Hahn.
Every Friday, we break down the biggest stories shaping business, technology, politics, and culture — and connect the dots across the conversations happening throughout the Prof G universe.
This week: SpaceX becomes the largest IPO in history and makes Elon Musk the world’s first trillionaire. Then, after 107 days of war, the U.S. and Iran announce a framework agreement that leaves the biggest questions unresolved. And finally, historian Heather Cox Richardson joins Scott to discuss expertise, institutions, and America’s future at 250.
