Tariffs, Tariffs, and more, no, wait a minute, less tariffs
In this episode Toby Miller and Dennis Broe discuss Trump's tariffs and their effect on the European and American audiovisual industry as well as the ways the American streamers continue to colonize European public television while seemingly, as Trump might say, "making nice," or appearing to cooperate.
