About this episode

The US-Canada trade row is back on. After Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney suspended trade talks, Donald Trump's government has been scrambling to keep markets calm and convince the public that his tariff strategy is working.

On this episode, Mark Stone and James Matthews unpack the latest chapter in the neighbourhood dispute.

Meanwhile, his treasury secretary Scott Bessent has launched ‘operation economic outcast’ on Iran. But the details are… sparse.

Plus, James tracks down a severely under pressure Fifa boss Gianni Infantino but he doesn’t seem to want to answer any questions about the his future in the beautiful game.
