  • Hello, Paul. You still up in Northern New England?

  • Indeed.

  • I would have said Western New England, but yeah, I'm actually on the deck of our house.

  • I've decided to go full-on summary here.

  • How are you?

  • I'm fine.

  • I'm about to write a column on how Trump is changing the world.

  • I will steal freely.

  • No, I will refer to your columns, among others.

  • Let's start, shall we?

  • This is the sixth and final episode in our series, The Wolf Krugman Exchange.

  • I'm Martin Wolf, Chief Economics Commentator at the Financial Times.

  • And I'm Paul Krugman, Professor at the City University of New York,

  • author of an independent Substack newsletter.

  • Today's episode is being recorded on Monday, July 7th at 9 in the morning in Massachusetts,

  • where I've taken advantage of a lovely morning to record out on the porch and 2 p.m. in London.

  • Sitting outside is an interesting choice and a bold one.

  • So today we're going to be answering some of the questions you've been kind enough to send us over the last six weeks.

  • We've had several dozen, so we can't get to them all.

  • But we'll try to address some of the themes which seem to crop up most in our inbox.
