From Cafe and the Vox Media Podcast Network, welcome to Stay Tuned.

I'm Pete Barara.

The war in Ukraine changed geopolitics fundamentally.

The energy shock has accelerated the green's transition, but also made it much trickier and much more complicated.

That's Zannie Minton-Betos. She's the editor-in-chief of the Economist. The weekly international periodical founded in 1843.

Betos has been a journalist at the Economist since 1994, and in 2015 she became the first woman to lead the storied publication.

We last spoke on this podcast nearly three years ago during the early days of the pandemic, when the world was in a much different place than it is today.

Betos joins me to discuss the state of U.S.-China relations, whether AI technology should be regulated, and an unexpected silver lining of Russia's war in Ukraine.

That's coming up. Stay tuned.
