The Prof G Podcast with Scott Galloway
As the war with Iran escalates, the United States is shifting military assets back to the Middle East — raising new questions about whether Washington can stay focused on the Indo-Pacific and China. Alice Han and James Kynge speak with Gulf Research Center chief economist Dr. John Sfakianakis about how the conflict could reshape global power dynamics and whether Beijing may gain strategic breathing room while U.S. attention is divided. Then, a new set of university rankings is fueling debate over the future of global research. Chinese universities are climbing rapidly, backed by massive state investment and a surge in scientific output. Finally, China’s electric vehicle giant BYD is reportedly exploring a dramatic new move to boost its global brand: entering Formula One. We look at what it would mean for the sport — and for China’s ambitions in the global auto industry.
