The Breaker podcast

Welcome to the Breaker podcast. We are Lachlan Cartwright and Ravi Somaiya. If this email has been forwarded to you can subscribe here and send your questions, tips, and complaints here. 

This week we come to you from Bar Mercer, in Soho, to talk about Performance Improvement Plans, culture clash at the Wall Street Journal, how Me Too men are coming back, the scandal PR machine's latest target, the philosophy of the Sun's Page 3 girls, the complexities of outdoor dining and why New York is like Moscow. It features Mark Halperin, Carlos Watson, Donald Trump, Emma Tucker, and (briefly) Napoleon. We also land on an eternal truth: the ultimate power lies in being able to choose the music. And in honor of that, we sing YMCA. (You can also listen on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and a bunch of others And if you have a bar, cafe or restaurant you’d like featured in the Breaker pod get in touch.)
