WATCH: Inside the Musk/Trump psychodrama. The void of a Democratic leader. Are Americans docile?

My conversation with legendary editor and skewerer of everyone Tina Brown

We’ve spent this week talking a lot about Elon Musk’s ongoing coup — and, as more information emerges about his attempt to use his team of junior programmers to reshape America in the image of Grok AI — something we found even Grok AI doesn’t recommend, by the way — we’re going to keep delving into the details.

I covered all of that and more in a live conversation earlier today with Tina Brown, the editor who’s spent her career redefining magazine journalism, and who has an excellent newsletter on Substack called Fresh Hell. Drawing on her deep immersion in everything from the world of fashion to the conference rooms of Davos, we had a wide-ranging, challenging conversation that pushed back on a lot of priors.

As with the other conversations we’ve had in our ongoing series of Substack Lives, it is a discussion full of challenging analyses that might annoy you, might inspire you — and that we like to think you won’t find anywhere else. That’s the promise of this new form of media. We appreciate your support, and, if you haven’t already, we hope you’ll become a paying subscriber and watch today’s video, and join us next time we go Live.
