About The Episode
First up, President Trump's proposed “Board of Peace” has its first meeting today. We ask Abiodun Williams to explain the traditional structures of international diplomacy. Williams is a professor of the practice of international politics at Tufts.
And, with figure skating fans in awe of the quadruple jump, we ask what ARE the limits for figure skating? Anette “Peko” Hosoi and Jerry Lu from the MIT Sports Lab talk physics of spinning and jumping, and new technology to push skaters forward.
