EP 52: Inside The White House - Interview with the President’s Climate Adviser Aug 15, 2023

Show notes

As we experience the hottest summer in recorded history, we have a conversation with White House National Climate Adviser, Ali Zaidi, about what the administration is doing to combat climate change. Despite all the recent negative headlines, Zaidi explains to Mosheh why he remains an optimist and the progress that has been made globally in recent years.

He also discusses the White House strategy regarding clean energy, why electric cars are cleaner than gas-powered vehicles, whether climate change has a “branding problem,” and the latest tax breaks and incentives for Americans adopting clean energy alternatives.

This conversation comes as the White House gets set to mark the one year anniversary of the Inflation Reduction Act, which includes billions of dollars in climate initiatives as the administration tries to hit ambitious CO2 reduction targets.

EP 50: Supreme Court Overturns Affirmative Action with Sharon McMahon Jun 29, 2023

Show notes

The Supreme Court on Thursday struck down affirmative action in college admissions, declaring race cannot be a factor after nearly 50 years. The decision forces colleges and universities to look for new ways to achieve diverse student bodies without considering race.

We break down the decision with Supreme Court watcher and Mo News Podcast friend Sharon McMahon of SharonSaysSo. We discuss the arguments by the various justices (including the very personal language in the opinions), the exceptions to the ruling and what it means for colleges, employers, the military and the nation. The conversation was part of a breaking news Instagram Live on @mosheh on Thursday afternoon following the decision.

We also discuss the upcoming major student loan case, and other Supreme Court headlines including calls for them to adopt a code of ethics.

EP 45: The Pulse of America: Can We Still Trust Polls? with Gallup’s Editor-in-Chief May 30, 2023

Show notes

One of the most popular questions we get at Mo News is about polling, how it works and why it can be trusted. In today’s edition we speak with the editor-in-chief of Gallup, one of the organizations that does it best. Gallup is nearly 90 years old and conducts polls in 140 countries—representing nearly all of humanity.

Editor-in-Chief, Mohamed Younis, joins Mosh to talk about how the organization polls everyone from women living in Taliban-controlled Afghanistan to dislocated Ukrainians to Americans who no longer pick up their phones. We discuss compelling trends when it comes to the economy, world happiness trends, how Gallup tweaks questions based on cultural norms and which US political polls you should no longer trust.

Show notes

Is Artificial Intelligence going to change the world for good or should we be freaking out?

Mosheh speaks to Joanna Stern, the senior personal technology columnist at the Wall Street Journal, about what is next for AI, as governments try to figure out how to regulate the fast-evolving technology. She has reported extensively on artificial intelligence, including recently seeing if an AI version of Joanna could fake out colleagues, sources and family members.

Stern is extremely well-sourced and has interviewed prominent CEOs from across Big Tech. We talk about the latest headlines across that world, including the likelihood of a TikTok ban as well as the latest from Meta, Google, Apple and Twitter.
