Happy New Year!!

And welcome to another episode of my Substack podcast, The Roundup, where you can listen to all my Substack content for the week in one place, read by yours truly.

This week, I’ll be reading the following pieces:

Trends to watch out for in 2026

The sharpening of old contradictions - and the strengthening of new reistance.

What I read this week

The cost of living crisis continues on both sides of the Atlantic.


Here are the pieces I referenced in the posts:

This Christmas, Don’t Talk about Politics
Powerlessness, Rage, and the Rise of the Far Right
The US economy is a house of cards


Thanks again for being a paid subscriber and listening to the podcast - I wouldn’t be able to do any of this without you!!

In solidarity,

Grace
