Good morning from Zurich.
You're listening to Monocle on Sunday with me, Tyler Brulee.
Coming up on today's program, today we've got Gabe Bullard.
He's made the journey, of course, from Basel.
Also Priska Amschutz.
Finally, she's back.
We're going to find out where she's been.
But Gab, maybe we'll start with you.
What's caught your eye this week?
Very sort of slow week, I would say, in politics.
Oh, you know, very calm.
We've got the extreme confidence from Republicans and a lot of indecision and hand wringing from Democrats in the U.S.
so there's a lot to unpack there and.
Maybe we'll talk a little bit about this sort of issue of Eurovision, where it's going to be.
It's certainly not going to be in Zurich, is it?
That is the big decision that has to be made now.
Okay, we'll talk about that.
We'll also get the latest updates from Bangkok.
This is James Chambers, Monocle's Asia editor.
And I'll be joining the show a little later on from Bangkok to talk about a less than golden reaction to Thailand's Olympic outfits and the rise and rise of a cute and cuddly cookie shop mascot.
