Ian Bremmer

Global warming, more COVID, Putin’s endless escalation of war, growing inflation… The world’s on fire, literally, so how do we fight it? Ian Bremmer, the (ever-optimistic) political scientist and bestselling author shares with Kasich and Klepper why he believes the crisis in Ukraine is the beginning of a new Cold War with Russia, the urgency of Finland and Sweden to join NATO, and how Putin has dug himself a hole with no way out. They also discuss Bremmer’s “Top Risks” report for 2022, including the global economic impact from China’s shutdowns, and look forward towards “the most important midterm elections in US history.” Ian Bremmer’s new book, “The Power of Crisis: How Three Threats— and Our Response—Will Change the World” is available now wherever you get your books and go to GZEROMEDIA.com for global news and more.

Om Podcasten

They come from two different sides of the political spectrum: John Kasich, former Governor of Ohio and 2016 Republican presidential candidate; and Jordan Klepper, a liberal comedian best known for his viral videos interviewing MAGA supporters for The Daily Show with Trevor Noah. In this weekly talk show podcast, the pair will come together to scream their differing political opinions at each other for an hour… just kidding. Sure, there will be some political debate, but Kasich & Klepper’s discussions will more often explore the common ground of their shared interests. They’ll dive into conversations about parenting, leadership, pop culture, mental health, and more — all with a good sense of humor and a whole lot of jokes at each other’s expense. Along the way, Kasich & Klepper will be joined by high-profile guests from all walks of life — musicians, athletes, activists, politicians, and much more — each of whom will share their unique perspectives on modern life’s biggest questions. Together, Kasich & Klepper will have thoughtful, engaging, and downright hilarious conversations to demonstrate the power of mutual understanding in a polarized world.
