Brazen Weekender

Hello and welcome to the latest edition of Brazen Weekender! I'm Charlie, a producer at Project Brazen, and this is the newsletter where I share what the team has been watching, reading and listening to this week. This week I've got a bumper edition of long reads and fascinating insights into global politics, as well as an eerie new podcast and a vertigo-inducing love story. To kick us off, we're celebrating the liberation of Evan Gershkovich and other undemocratically detained political prisoners from Russia. Let's get into it!

This is a post for subscribers to Whale Hunting, where every single week you get multiple insights into the hidden worlds of money and power.
