Elon Musk, who's taking his chainsaw to the federal government, is not merely a chaos agent, as he is sometimes described. Jill Lepore, the best-selling author of “These Truths” and other books, says that Musk is animated by obsessions and a sense of mission he acquired through reading, and misreading, science fiction. “When he keeps saying, you know, ‘We're at a fork in the road. The future of human civilization depends on this election,' he means SpaceX,” she tells David Remnick. “He means . . . ‘I need to take these rockets to colonize Mars and that's only going to happen through Trump.' ” The massive-scale reduction in social services he is enacting through DOGE, Lepore thinks, is tied to this objective. “Although there may be billions of [people] suffering here on planet Earth today, those are miniscule compared to the calculation of the needs of the billions of humans that will one day ever live if we can gain escape velocity from planet Earth. . . . That is, in fact, the math that lies behind DOGE.”  Lepore's BBC radio series on the SpaceX C.E.O. is called “X-Man: The Elon Musk Origin Story.” Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices

This week I wanted to give you two conversations recorded some time ago, which are part of our recurring series on intellectual humility and historical thinking. The first guest is Alex Mikaberidze, a native of Georgia, the other one, not the one with peaches. He's Professor of History and Ruth Herring Noel Endowed Chair at Louisiana State University in Shreveport. Dr. Mika Reja specializes in 18th and 19th century Europe, particularly [00:04:00] the Napoleonic Wars. He has written or edited some two dozen titles, including the critically acclaimed The Napoleonic Wars: A Global History and most recently the critically acclaimed Kutuzov: A Life in War and Peace, both of which we discussed on this podcast (in Episode 14 and again in Episode 155, and in Episode 284). He also talked about the skills of historical research in Episode 241, which means that as this is fifth appearance on the podcast,  I owe him a coffee mug.  My second guest is Scott Eric Nelson, Georgia Athletic Association Professor at the University of Georgia. Scott writes about the 19th century history, including the history of slavery, international finance, the history of science, and of global commodities. His first book was Steel Drivin' Man: The Untold Story of an American Legend, about the black folklore legend John Henry, and it won four national awards. More recently, he authored Oceans of Grain: How American Wheat Remade the World, about the competition between the United States and the Russian Empire to Feed Europe between 1789 and 1918. It was featured on the BBC, CBS, NPR, and most importantly on Historically Thinking.

Emma Jane Kirby has worked as a Foreign Correspondent for the BBC, written documentaries, audio drama, a novel, and so much more. The main reason for their interview is the recent audio series A Most Audacious Heist, that looks in to real life theft of the Sisi Star, which looks into the lives of Empress Sisi herself, and the likable rogue Daniel Blanchard, who sole the star in a way that gives Ethan Hunt from the Mission Impossible films a run for their money. Or did he? The conversation looks at how EJ's history as a foreign correspondent for the BBC has inspired her writing these great stories based on true stories. They also discuss the audio series The Butterfly King, which is about a former European king, who died after meeting Adolf Hitler, and after denying Hitler's request to hand over Jews that were being protected in their country. They also discuss EJ's novel, The Optician of Lampedusa, based on the true story of an optician who whilst vacationing on the Meditteranean Sea, saved a few hundred people trying to escape oppression in their own country, who were floating after their boat sank. Also mentioned during the show is the superb work that production company Blanchard House, under the creative directorship of previous show guest Rosie Pye. We also discuss EJ's history as a former writer for the iconic British radio drama The Archers, which up to now has been around for 74 years, and is still going strong. https://www.blanchard-house.com/ https://linktr.ee/podslikeus/

Romola Garai won her first professional acting roles as a teenager, and since then, her career has taken her in a wide range of dramatic directions. Most recently, she won a 2025 Olivier Award for her role in The Years, a sometimes shocking play based on a novel by Nobel Prize winner Annie Ernaux – and she was competing against herself, with a nomination in the same category for her part in Giant, a play about Roald Dahl.Her previous stage work includes playing Cordelia opposite Ian McKellen's King Lear, and her extensive screen credits include the title role in a BBC adaptation of Jane Austen's Emma. She also won acclaim for The Hour, a drama set behind the scenes of a TV current affairs programme in the 1950s. In 2020, she went behind the camera to write and direct a horror film called Amulet.

The issue of colourism was highlighted in a recent BBC news report about a Nigerian woman who bleached the skin of her six young children leaving them with discoloured skin, burns and scars. It is a form of racism where light skin is more highly valued than dark skin amongst people of the same ethnic group.In our conversations, we hear from women who share experiences of colourism in India including Chandana who has faced colourism from an early age: “I was six or seven years old when I would first hear these conversations of my relatives saying that she's a dark-skinned girl and you will have to pay a lot more dowry to get married and it will be such a struggle to find a husband for her.”We also bring together two black women who work in the fashion and beauty industry, where appearance is everything. Beauty journalist, Ateh, shares her experiences of colourism with Nyakim, a Sudanese American model known as Queen of the Dark after her naturally dark skin tone.

Italy's Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni - the first woman to occupy that role - has faced one of her biggest international tests yet. She is the first European leader to go to Washington to meet President Trump since his recent announcement of new tariffs on the EU. So how did Meloni's meeting with Donald Trump go, and how is Giorgia Meloni being seen back home, particularly by Italian women?

#1 New York Times bestselling author, Susannah Cahalan, spoke to me about her writing process, witch candles, and stepping into the shoes of psychedelic pioneer Rosemary Woodruff Leary in her new biography THE ACID QUEEN. Susannah Cahalan is a #1 New York Times bestselling author, journalist, and public speaker. Her first book, Brain on Fire, has sold over a million copies and has been translated into more than twenty languages. Her second book, The Great Pretender, was shortlisted for the Royal Society's 2020 Science Book Prize. Her latest biography The Acid Queen: The Psychedelic Life and Counterculture Rebellion of Rosemary Woodruff Leary, “...chronicles the life of Rosemary Woodruff Leary (1935–2002), a prominent figure in the 1960s psychedelic movement and Timothy Leary's wife from 1967 through 1976.”  Kirkus gave THE ACID QUEEN a glowing review, calling it a “well-wrought narrative that brings deserved attention to a lost figure in the counterculture,” and Publishers Weekly called it a “... stranger than fiction story [that offers] a vivid portrait of how flower power cracked up in the '70s.” Susannah Cahalan has been profiled in the New York Times, featured as an answer on Jeopardy!: delivered a TEDx Talk, and appeared as a guest on The Today Show, PBS, BBC's Inside Science, and Fresh Air, among many others.

La primera parte del programa está dedicada a la discusión de la actualidad. El primer tema de discusión es la reciente entrevista concedida por el jefe de espionaje ruso, en la que lanzó amenazas hacia Polonia y los Estados Bálticos. Sus comentarios causaron preocupación de que la agresión de Rusia pudiera extenderse más allá de Ucrania a otros estados europeos. Luego, hablaremos sobre las crecientes tensiones entre EE. UU. y China por los aranceles. Pekín ha reiterado su determinación de resistir cualquier trato injusto percibido y se ha acercado a otros países invitándoles a combatir las tácticas de intimidación de Trump. Nuestra siguiente noticia trata sobre un estudio alemán que revela conceptos erróneos sobre la renta básica universal (RBU). Las discusiones sobre la adopción de la RBU se han mantenido durante algún tiempo. Pero ahora, tenemos resultados del estudio que avanzarán nuestra comprensión de los efectos de la RBU. Y la última noticia de la primera parte del programa de hoy será sobre la colocación de Antoni Gaudí en el camino hacia la santidad por parte del Papa Francisco. La sección de gramática del programa presentará un diálogo lleno de ejemplos de Los Usos del Imperfecto—Parte III. Nuestra sección de expresiones presentará otro proverbio español: El agua clara y el chocolate espeso.

We've got a blockbuster episode of Spotlight for you today.We kick things off with an important discussion around women's sport and transgender athlete policies, following a landmark ruling from the UK Supreme Court on the legal definition of “woman” in the Equality Act. We know this topic won't be for everyone, so if you'd prefer to skip ahead to the sports performance and race insights, you can jump straight to that action at about 1:07:12 in the podcast.For those looking for insight on this important topic, Gareth and I unpack the Supreme Court decision—a ruling with far-reaching implications. We're joined by Helen Joyce, a leading women's rights advocate who was in the courtroom for the verdict. She explains why the decision matters, what it means for sports governing bodies, and how it could reshape the future of competitive sport.Then we shift gears into performance talk: world records fell in the pool and in the discus, and we explore how weather and tech have combined to break new ground. Paris-Roubaix delivered two standout races. In the women's event, race savvy beat strong legs (for once) as Pauline Ferrand-Prévot stormed to a solo victory in the Roubaix Velodrome. In the men's race, we got another much-anticipated clash between Pogacar and van der Poel. We break down the physiology behind their efforts, the tactics—including van der Poel's composed response to Pogacar's crash—and how plain bad luck robbed the race of a deeper duel.Gareth also dives into the UK's gym boom. With more people training than ever, we ask: is it all good news? Or is there more to the story? And finally, we celebrate our Discoursers—listeners and athletes around the world who've been tearing it up in races.

Wie immer diskutieren wir im ersten Teil des heutigen Programms aktuelle Ereignisse der Woche. Unser erstes Thema ist das Interview des russischen Geheimdienstchefs, in dem er Polen und den baltischen Staaten gedroht hat. Seine Äußerungen geben Anlass zur Sorge, dass Russlands Aggression über die Ukraine hinaus auf andere europäische Staaten übergreifen könnte. Danach werden wir über die eskalierenden Spannungen zwischen den USA und China wegen der Strafzölle sprechen. China hat seine Entschlossenheit bekräftigt, sich gegen jede als ungerecht empfundene Behandlung zu wehren, und hat andere Länder dazu aufgerufen, sich nicht von Trump einschüchtern zu lassen. Unser nächstes Thema ist eine deutsche Studie, die Missverständnisse über das universelle Grundeinkommen aufdeckt. Diskussionen darüber werden schon seit einiger Zeit geführt, doch nun gibt es Studienergebnisse, die unser Verständnis von den Auswirkungen des Grundeinkommens verbessern werden. Und zum Abschluss des ersten Teils diskutieren wir über die Pläne von Papst Franziskus, Antoni Gaudí heiligzusprechen. Der Grammatikteil des Programms wird einen Dialog mit vielen Beispielen zum Thema Adjectives and their Prepositions (Part 2) enthalten. Und in unserem letzten Dialog werden wir den Gebrauch einer weiteren deutschen Redewendung veranschaulichen: Ein Buch mit sieben Siegeln.

Ultra-processed food is the new cigarette—and it's fueling a global health crisis hiding in plain sight. In today's episode, I'm joined by Dr. Chris van Tulleken—infectious disease physician, BBC broadcaster, and author of Ultra-Processed People—to expose the truth behind ultra-processed foods and the industries driving their consumption. To find out what this food is really doing to us, Dr. van Tulleken became the first subject in a groundbreaking clinical trial—eating 80% of his calories from ultra-processed food for a full month. We unpack what makes ultra-processed food fundamentally different from real food—even when the ingredients look similar, and why its impact on your brain, metabolism, and long-term health is far worse than anyone thought… You'll learn: How ultra-processed food hijacks your brain's reward system The science behind food addiction and satiety hormones Why food labels and front-of-package claims are designed to mislead you What the latest data says about UPFs and 32 chronic diseases The global policy movements and lawsuits now underway to fight back This episode is part science, part exposé, and a wake-up call for anyone who thinks food is just about calories and willpower.

Conflicted returns with another episode in our series on the Syrian Civil War, this time with a new contributor, who begins today a two episode arc where we'll be looking at the Siege of Southern Damascus… Thomas Small has invited on Matar Ismaeel, a documentary filmmaker and political activist from Masyaf, Syria. Now back in his homeland after years of exile, Matar speaks to us from Masyaf itself, relaying an extraordinary story of resilience and courage in the Syrian capital. Matar tells us about his family's political background, and his early involvement in documenting protests on his digital camera in 2011. He recounts the dangers he faced as a media activist, including arrests and torture in Syrian prisons.

The UK Supreme Court rules that the legal definition of a woman is based on biological sex. BBC correspondent Catriona Renton joins Nuala to discuss the ramifications of the ruling. Parents of disabled children are being forced to spend thousands of pounds of their own money to plug funding gaps in the health and social care system, according to new research by the disability charity Sense. Nearly half of mums polled have had to give up work as they don't get enough support to care for their child, and many families are turning to loans, credit cards and even crowdfunding to plug the gaps. Nuala is joined by Harriet Edwards, Head of Policy at Sense, and mum-of-three Kimberley Hind. The Irish writer Edna O'Brien died last year at the age of 93.
