Episode Details

The U.S.-Israeli strikes on Iran put a new spotlight on Saudi Arabia, where Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman is rapidly shifting his country both domestically and on the world stage. On this episode of All Things, journalist Karen Elliott House--drawing on her new book, "The Man Who Would Be King"--explains the crown prince's work to rein in clerics, to reduce restrictions on women, music and "fun," and to transform Saudi Arabia's economy by courting new industries and foreign investment. She also breaks down Saudi Arabia's bid to become a new regional and global player, how the kingdom is a "silent winner” in the wake of the Iranian conflict, and the challenges to an ongoing U.S.-Saudi relationship.
