Summary

The Economist's Sue-Lin Wong, host of the new podcast The Prince, discusses the most powerful person in the world, Xi Jinping. As China's 20th Communist Party Congress convenes, Xi has positioned himself to rule China for another five years, and maybe the rest of his life. But so little is known about him … until now. Plus, witness the drones filling the skies of Ukraine—Ghost Phoenixes, Switchblades, and these so-called "Kamikaze" models. And it's an Antwentig, in which Angela Landsbury's cinematic son is clarified and "Just Asking Questions" is endorsed. The Gist is produced by Joel Patterson and Corey Wara Email us at thegist@mikepesca.com To advertise on the show, visit: https://advertisecast.com/TheGist Hey, we have a new podcast called Not Even Mad launching Wednesday, October 26th.

0:09.2	It is called Not Even Mad.
0:11.5	Not even Mad is a weekly discussion among three people who get along, but also like to
0:16.9	argue it's me, Jamie Kirchick and Virginia Heffernin, three people from broadly speaking, different
0:22.4	ideological perspectives, but certainly not doctrine.
0:25.7	But the idea is we will discuss current events and we will discuss politics and what's
0:29.6	in the news and we'll hash it out.

0:55.0	There is a link to Not Even Mad which will have its official debut on October 26th and
