Episode description

The world is struggling with rising prices and slowing economies in the wake of the pandemic and the war in Ukraine. As the cost of food and energy spikes, inflation in the double digits is becoming a more common occurrence. At the end of this week, America's top economists will gather in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, and all eyes are on what the chair of the US Federal Reserve Jerome Powell will say. So what can we expect and how will it impact working families? Axios Chief Financial Correspondent Felix Salmon joins the show to discuss. 

Also on today's show: Karim Khan, the chief prosecutor for the International Criminal Court; Edward Buckles Jr., director of the new documentary on Hurricane Katrina, Katrina Babies.
