Podcast 114 – Ying Ma

Ying Ma joins Bob Davis to talk about China’s strengths and weaknesses in relation to the United States and the rest of the world. Will China’s rise mean America’s fall? US First Lady Michelle Obama’s China trip is generating controversy, but there isn’t much substantive conversation about what China’s rise means, what the economic slowdown in China may mean for the world and its political system, and America’s position in all of this. Learn the reality about China, with one of the world’s foremost experts on the subject. Ying Ma writes about China, International Affairs, the free market and conservatism. Much of her writing chronicles the crossroads of political and economic freedom and China’s rising influence on world affairs. Ying Ma is the author of Chinese Girl in The Ghetto. Learn more about Ma at yingma.org. Sponsored by Baklund R&D.

Podcast 110

What stories are catching my attention this week? How do the ‘dots’ connect? What to look for, and I round up the top stories midweek. The conspiracy theorists are already filling the factual holes on the mysterious disappearance of Flight 370. Are you getting the right information to make informed decisions about what the US Foreign Policy should be with Russia and the Ukraine, or are you letting cable television ‘entertainment news’ shows do your thinking for you? What can today’s long term unemployed learn from 16 year old coders who are already making money? Are the Koch brothers really the biggest political contributors? (Not by a long shot). And one really angry story about a cat “with a history of violence”. Sponsored by Ryan Plumbing and Heating of Saint Paul.
