About this episode

Our data journalists trawled through the vast email archive of Jeffrey Epstein, a dead sex offender. It is a revealing look at how and with whom he communicated. As interest grows in banning young people’s use of social media, we argue there are better ways to mitigate harms. And a blindfolded introduction to “ blouge ”, a new, more climate-resilient wine variety. Guests and host: Rosie Blau, host of “The Intelligence” Dan Rosenheck, data editor Tom Wainwright, media editor Tom Standage, deputy editor of The Economist Topics covered: The Epstein files Social-media bans “Blouge” wine Get a world of insights by subscribing to Economist Podcasts+ .
