Michelle Hussein 0:32
Hello, I'm Michelle Hussein, and for more than twenty years I was at the BBC presiding over political debates. Welcome to the BBC Prime Ministerial Debate. Covering international news. And reporting on some pretty famous people. Your Royal Highness Meghan Markle, congratulations to you both.

Why does Michelle Hussein say she wants to go beyond daily headlines?

Michelle Hussein 0:57
Thank you. Can we stop? It was thrilling to be in the front row, to watch history unfold, even if I did have to get up at three AM most mornings. But all the time I was delivering the headlines, I wanted to go further than the news of the day. I wanted to talk about the ideas behind it. To spend more time with the people shaping our world. And that's what I'm doing here on this podcast from Bloomberg Weekend. I speak with people like Elon Musk.
Ed Ludlow 1:30
In terms of political spending, um I'm gonna do a lot less in the future.
Michelle Hussein 1:34

I think I've done enough.
Michelle Hussein 1:37
Prime Minister Keir Starmer. Recognizing a Palestinian state was in your manifesto. Do you want to be the British Prime Minister who delivers that?

Cultural figures like succession creator Jesse Armstrong, you are writing about that world of the super rich again, and there's a
Ed Ludlow 1:57
Sorry. Well, I

wondered why.
Ed Ludlow 1:59
I believe I'm doing it because I'm interested in the power, not the money.
Michelle Hussein 2:02
And Shonda Rhimes. How did you feel about Bridgerton being described as woke?

What criticism does the show discuss about ‘Bridgerton’ being labeled as ‘woke’?

Michelle Hussein 2:07
I didn't know anybody described it as woke. The telegraph called it pandering to woke casting. Well that's so cute. This is going to be a place where every weekend you'll hear one essential conversation. But I hope that it's also going to be a place with head, heart and soul.
