Manage episode 396418631 series 2806960
This week, Alexandra Marshall joins us from France, to tell us about the dashing new prime minister who is 34 years old and why seemingly everyone in the country can’t stop talking about him—including the man who bullied him in high school. Then John Arlidge joins us from the U.K. with the shocking details about the worst miscarriage of justice in British history, when 700 people were convicted of a crime they didn’t commit. And speaking of the U.K., Ashley Baker has the scoop on the return of one of London’s most loved restaurants. And finally, Johanna Berkman reveals how the Ivy League has used its prominence to stand against various forms of racism in college sports, yet when it comes to speaking out about anti-Semitism against students who compete on behalf of Ivy League teams, the schools have been conspicuously silent.
