The Airport Meltdown

Since the war in Iran began, President Trump has insisted that rising energy prices would be temporary. But strikes on natural gas facilities in the Persian Gulf last week have made the prospect of a quick recovery seem less and less likely.

Patricia Cohen, the global economics correspondent for The New York Times, explains why the impacts may be felt for years.

How China Made Itself Tariff-Proof

The war in Iran has created strong divisions among President Trump’s supporters. An anti-interventionist wing of the Republican coalition and some senior administration officials partial to Mr. Trump’s criticism of long overseas conflicts have quickly become uneasy about the war, which has shown no immediate signs of ending.

Robert Draper, a domestic politics journalist for The New York Times based in Washington, discusses Mr. Trump’s justification for the war and whether he is explicitly violating a pact he made with his base not to start another.

Guest: Robert Draper is a journalist based in Washington, D.C., who writes about domestic politics for The New York Times.

The Republican Identity Crisis Over the Iran War

If you’ve spent any time on social media recently, you’ve probably come across a video of a young, square-jawed influencer calling himself Clavicular. He has become the face of an internet subculture called looksmaxxing, in which men do almost anything — like taking steroids and hormones or bashing their jaws with a hammer — to try to become more handsome.

In this episode, Natalie Kitroeff talks with reporter Joseph Bernstein about the world of looksmaxxing and how what might seem like a fringe phenomenon is actually the culmination of a digital culture that rewards physical perfection with status and algorithmic power.

On Today’s Episode

Joseph Bernstein covers digital subcultures for the Styles desk at The New York Times.
