Remember the inquiry into grooming gangs that didn't support the right wing's racist assertions on who was responsible? Well the government is having a do over until they get the result they want. We also read an article about Britain's Bestest Prime Minister ever.

The strategic defence review got published and was over 100 pages long so obviously Rob read it to discover wonderful new frontiers in boondoggling. Also, Alasdair takes us on a brief visit to the worst country in the world (america) before swinging back to the other worst country in the world (britain) for David to hold a big magnifying glass over Labour like it's a big ant hill.

The remote islands of Scotland are known to be home to folk with the second sight. Alasdair tells James the story of three gifted seers, each of whom came to a sticky end. (In one case, literally. Barrel of tar, innit?) This is a bumper episode for new ways to exploit the Loremen brand. We're talking a new TV show, a dark reboot of the name Kenneth, and a brand new music genre combining Drum & Bass with the Irish playwright George Bernard-Shaw.

Vittorio and Alasdair get together for a transfer market special. We take a position-by-position deep dive into who Lazio should sell and buy to give Maurizio Sarri a stronger squad for next season.

Germany's 2025 federal election saw the far-right Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) double its support to 20.8%, becoming the second largest party, while the Green Party fell from 14.8% to 11.6%. The AfD denies climate science and opposes environmental policies on economic grounds. This week, Alasdair interviews academic Felix Schulz, whose recent research has examined public attitudes toward climate policy across six countries - three in the global north and three in the global south.  The research found that core values – particularly those derived from neoliberalism and free-market ideology – are more effective than socioeconomic factors in indicating how people will respond to climate policies.  Felix and Alasdair discuss how neoliberal thinking has shaped public opinion, why climate policy must integrate social and economic considerations, and how job security concerns in industrial roles affect political support for climate action. Felix Schulz is a postdoctoral research fellow at Lund University researching public opinion and climate policy.  Further reading:  Why focusing on “climate change denial” is counterproductive, 2023,  Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences People with neoliberal views are less likely to support climate-friendly policies, 2025, The Conversation Public support for climate policies and its ideological predictors across countries of the Global North and Global South, 2025, Ecological Economics Navigating sustainable futures: The role of terminal and instrumental values, 2024, Ecological Economics German elections: why most political parties aren't talking about the climate crisis, 2025,   The Conversation Click here for our website to read all our most recent Land and Climate Review features and pieces.

A walk in the park turns out to be no walk in the park. Alasdair introduces James to Lullingstone Castle, home to both an aristocratic orchid hunter and the spectre of Colonel Meates - surely one of the meatiest ghosts in Kent. Straying from the path, we encounter Percy Pilcher (the unfortunate aeronaut), Thomas Becket (the spiteful saint), and a Roman beefcake by the name of Titus Manlius.

Lazio left it too late against 10-man Juventus as they rescued a late draw. Vittorio and Alasdair review the game and ask if the fourth-place hopes are over after failing to win. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

A UK government agency recently announced it would spend £57 million on a controversial project to develop geoengineering technologies.   The Exploring Climate Cooling Programme will fund 21 international research teams to conduct small-scale, controlled outdoor experiments to thicken Arctic sea ice and brighten clouds, to prevent global warming from increasing past irreversible tipping points. Geoengineering has long been a point of contention amongst scientists, environmental academics and conspiracy theorists - each firm in their beliefs about whether such interventions are necessary, effective, or risk irreversibly damaging the planet. Alasdair speaks with two academics studying geoengineering - Albert Van Wijngaarden and Adrian Hindes - who call for nuanced understanding and more productive conversation between the advocates and opposers of such radical interventions. They discuss the history of polar and solar geoengineering, the risks involved, and the lack of global governance. If you enjoyed this episode, stay tuned - we plan to explore geoengineering in more detail in the future. Further reading:  Plans to cool the Earth by blocking sunlight are gaining momentum but critical voices risk being excluded, October 2024, Albert Van Wijngaarden and Adrian Hindes Do-or-Die: Should we be talking about geoengineering?, December 2022, Land and Climate Review Soviet and Russian perspectives on geoengineering and climate management - Oldfield, J.

Alasdair is back to join Vittorio to review the match, discuss where Marco Baroni is getting things wrong and consider the Champions League race Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

It was crushing defeat in the Coppa Italia this week for Internazionale, and to next-door neighbors A.C. Milan no less. With that semifinal exit, the treble that Inter were loudly pursuing this season has evaporated. Now there are merely two competitions they're in a good position to win: the Champions League — if they can get past Barcelona in the semifinal — and Serie A.The latter is where they'll meet Roma this weekend for another highly difficult encounter, even at the San Siro. The visitors have not lost a league match since December, an incredible turnaround from a frankly disastrous opening period of the season, and they've zipped up the table to compete for a Champions League place. At the heart of it all is Claudio Ranieri, the 73-year-old Roman who came out of retirement to manage his hometown club for one final chapter (maybe) of a lifelong football romance.Here to get into all that ahead of kickoff is Alasdair Mackenzie, Rome-based writer for TNT Sports, Destination Calcio, Total Italian Football and more.If you're enjoying the show, please leave us a rating and review! It will help spread the good word.And as always, for kickoff times and storylines on all the other matches worth your time this weekend, check TheFootballWeekend.com. Hosted on Acast.

Okay, hear me out. First off, this was re-recorded a couple weeks ago because i'm extremely good at backing up audio files from 2 years ago entirely in line with the professionalism this podcast is known for. Secondly, there's some audio issues in this that I can't get rid of, no matter how much I try (remember when I said this was recorded 2 weeks ago?), sorry about that. Point III: This isn't this weeks normal episode, that's still to come, and the rest of these will be additional free episodes just like originally promised. Fourthly, we used my near 2 year old notes for this and if i'm being entirely honest I reckon it shows, but for the next one (yes, we're actually doing all of these and finishing it) I've got a revamped set of notes ready so it should be a bit slicker. Anyway, enjoy the much awaited sequel to the running joke that you lot have been haunting me with for far too long.

Lazio were held to a 1-1 draw by Udinese on Sunday and Vittorio and Alasdair are on hand to review the game. We discuss the striker crisis, Dia's dip in form, and debate whether the Europa League or Serie A is more important this season ahead of a huge month of games.

What a game! Lazio earned ANOTHER last-second 2-1 win away from home, beating Viktoria Plzen with nine men thanks to a Gustav Isaksen screamer in the final minute. Alasdair and Vittorio review the game and look ahead to a difficult challenge against Udinese.

Now this is a story all about how Donald Omand's life got flipped turned upside down when he encountered a Chinese idol possessed by a murderous spirit. Alasdair introduces James to the so-called ‘Circus Priest', a Scottish exorcist who fought the forces of evil everywhere from the Bermuda Triangle to a hotel room in Edinburgh. That is, if Dr Omand's own account of the events is to be believed...  If anything, we could say that this guy was rare.

This is not a drill - Lazio won away in Milan! Vittorio and Alasdair celebrate a victory that the club has only achieved three times in more than 30 years after a crazy game at San Siro. We also look ahead to Thursday's big Europa League clash with Viktoria Plzen.

Lazio were held to a disappointing 0-0 draw by Venezia on Saturday. Alasdair and Vittorio consider what went wrong and what Marco Baroni could have done differently, before looking ahead to games against Inter and Milan this week.

Alasdair Macleod of Macleod Finance gives us a U.K. / European perspective on tariffs, gold movements, and why we need to keep our gold out of the system. Also, Fort Knox gold or I.O.U.s?

Vittorio and Alasdair react to a thrilling but unsatisfying 2-2 draw with Napoli, where Gustav Isaksen finally stole the show. We review the performance, discuss the top four race after Juventus nudged Lazio out, and consider the criticism of Ivan Provedel.

On our second installment of Carbon Frontiers 2025, we welcome Alasdair Were, Head of Environmental Markets at Abaxx Exchange, back into the SmarterMarkets™ studio. David Greely sits down with Alasdair to discuss how recent dramatic policy changes and hard economic realities are influencing both corporate and government approaches to the energy transition, what it means for the carbon and environmental markets, and some of the potential paths forward.

Alasdair introduces James to the inverted ghost of Lady Elizabeth Hoby. Prepare your ears for the tragic tale of Lady Hoby's (imaginary) son William. Are the legends true? Was the mistress of Bisham Abbey cursed by a Benedictine monk? Was Lady Hoby... a murderer? As usual, the answer is "probably not". But that won't stop the Loreboys. And if anyone invites you to Bisham Abbey, take care that you don't fall foul of the curse of the black monk! Thunderclap!
