Lauren Layfield introduces The World with Richard Engel and Yalda Hakim on the series recommendation show Your Next Podcast.

Since then, Richard's in-depth knowledge and expertise has continued to be in demand among influential figures across the globe – and it is precisely this insight we will be offering to the audience every week. In 2021, immediately prior to the fall of Kabul, Yalda received a call from the Taliban live on air. In a world exclusive, the spokesman assured Yalda that no one in the city would be harmed by their troops when they entered the city.  It was an episode that highlighted that Yalda is one of the best connected and well-respected journalists in the business – and the show will be drawing on her extensive contacts book to provide most knowledgeable and high-profile guests. Join Richard and Yalda for The World as they cross the globe from the mass migration routes of Mexico to the frontline battles of the Middle East as they report, probe and ask the questions to make sure you can really understand what is happening in the world today – and why it matters to you.

Lauren Layfield introduces Worse than Murder on the series recommendation show, Your Next Podcast. In the winter of 1969, Muriel McKay, the wife of Rupert Murdoch's deputy chairman at News Limited, was abducted from her home in Wimbledon, Southwest London. The kidnap was a shocking case of mistaken identity – the kidnappers claimed "We tried to get Rupert Murdoch's wife [Anna]. We couldn't get her, so we took [Muriel] instead". Sadly, Muriel was never seen again. ‘Intrigue: Worse Than Murder' is a new podcast from BBC Radio 4 which tells the story of what happened the night Muriel was taken, and in the days, months and years that followed. It was an unprecedented case that obsessed the nation, baffled a police force, and led to the biggest manhunt of its day as the Metropolitan police raced against the clock to find Muriel. But the kidnapping of Muriel McKay was something else too: a story that helped make the British tabloid press into the kind of beast we know today. Using intimate testimony from members of the McKay family and previously un-broadcast recordings of telephone conversations with the kidnappers, Worse Than Murder sensitively explores the impact the abduction has had on Muriel's family for 54 long years, and what it tells us about the tabloid press at a pivotal moment in its history.

Lauren Layfield introduces Boom! on the podcast recommendation podcast - Your Next Podcast. Why are two old, unpopular men the main candidates for the world's most demanding job? It's the question John Prideaux, The Economist's US editor, gets asked the most. And the answer lies in the peculiar politics of the baby boomers. Since 1992, every American president bar one has been a white man born in the 1940s. That run looks likely to span 36 years - not far off the age of the median American. This cohort was born with aces in their pockets. Their parents defeated Nazism and won the cold war. They hit the jobs market at an unmatched period of wealth creation. They have benefitted from giant leaps in technology, and in racial and gender equality. And yet, their last act in politics sees the two main parties accusing each other of wrecking American democracy. As the boomers near the end of their political journey, John Prideaux, The Economist's US editor, sets out to make sense of their inheritance and their legacy.  You can subscribe to Boom and listen to all of the episodes on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or The Economist app.
