I just finished The Prince podcast. Pretty good. I learned quite a bit. The later episodes cover how the CCP deals with criticism. The Prince: Searching for Xi Jinping "Xi Jinping is the most powerful person in the world. At China’s 20th Communist Party congress in October he secured a third term as party chief, and may rule China for the rest of his life. But the real story of China’s leader remains a mystery. The Economist’s Sue-Lin Wong finds out how he rose to the top in our eight-part podcast series. The Prince is the epic story of Mr Xi’s turbulent past, how he has changed China and how he is trying to change the world." https://www.economist.com/theprincepod https://www.economist.com/theprincepod -- This podcast is worthy enough to overcome my distain for The Economist. (I canceled my subscription over their endorsement for the Iraq War.) It's not quite as over produced as the Radiolab genre. The signal is discernible from the noise without excess effort. I'm liking the followup Drum Tower podcast so far. But it's too soon to cast judgement.
