Summary

Loren, Radha, and Erin invite Camille Stewart, non-resident fellow at Harvard's Belfer Center, to discuss all the cyber threats and how individual behavior uniquely connects with our ability to mitigate or respond to them. In keeping up foreign relations, we provide short updates on Alexei Navalny, Belarus, and Brexit alongside a brief farewell to Japanese prime minister Shinzo Abe. We'd like to remind you all that Syria, Afghanistan, and Iraq are still a thing, and after all the takes have been shared on Trump's views on service members, we talk about the role of the press in this story.

0:24.7

And that means there's like just a lot, right?

0:57.8

But like on the way back from pizza, I told my husband just pick up like the cheapest, nastiest

1:01.8

rosé you can from the corner store.

1:04.1

So it is what it is.

1:06.3

Here we are.

1:07.4

That's really living up to the spirit of a 96.

1:29.9

that I went in and just there have this rack that's like, Reg, we recommend under $20.

1:35.5

And I just pick the closest ones to me in a box and left. So I'm drinking one of those.

1:40.5

You know, our standards from the first, you know, a couple months of bombs show and we were like making our own French 75s in the office have really adjusted.
