The West’s relationship with China is complicated, consequential and impossible to ignore. In this episode of R2BW, we unpack how Western economies became so deeply intertwined with a strategic rival, and what that dependence really means for sovereignty, security, and long-term prosperity. From trade, technology, and education to diplomacy, defence, and values, we ask the uncomfortable questions: has economic pragmatism blunted political resolve?

Can the West realistically decouple or diversify away from China, or are we already too deep in bed with the dragon? A frank, accessible conversation about power, risk, and the choices now facing liberal democracies.

Birth rates are falling around the world — but why? And what does it really take to create a future where people want (and can afford) to have children? In this punchy and provocative episode of R2BW, we pull apart the economic, social, cultural and personal forces shaping the great baby drought.

From housing costs to career pressure, shifting values to government incentives, we explore why making babies has become so complicated — and what societies get wrong when trying to “fix” it. With humour, straight talk and a few surprising insights, this episode looks beyond the panic headlines to ask the real question: what would a world that supports families actually look like?

How much is too much? In this episode of R2BW, we dive into one of the most polarising economic questions of our time — should there be a ceiling on personal wealth and income? From billionaires and bonus culture to the moral limits of capitalism, we examine what happens when reward turns into excess.

Is capping earnings a blow to ambition or a step toward fairness? Join us as we unpack the ethics, economics, and political tensions behind the idea that maybe, just maybe, there is such a thing as enough.
