Turbine Politics – News Sources

Munk Members Podcast provides listeners with a focused, half-hour masterclass on the big issues, events and trends driving the news and current events. The show features Janice Gross Stein, the founding director of the Munk School of Global Affairs and bestselling author, in conversation with Rudyard Griffiths, Chair and moderator of the Munk Debates.

This week’s Munk Members-only podcast focuses on Europe’s looming energy crisis and how the debate over Canada’s return of a critical piece of machinery for Russia’s gas pipelines into Europe has exposed new and fast-evolving risks related to the Ukraine War. What should the West’s strategy be to counter the Kremlin’s increasing weaponization of energy resources? In the second half of the program, Janice and Rudyard discuss the news sources they are turning towards to try and understand current events. Both recommend their top picks for news sources outside the mainstream which can help broaden our perspectives and enrich our conversations about fast-changing international and domestic politics.

This podcast is a project of the Munk Debates, a Canadian charitable organization dedicated to fostering civil and substantive public dialogue.
