About The Catastrophe Hour "One of our most important essayists . . .

Written between 2017 and 2024, these essays are classic Meghan Daum, showcasing her wit, her intellect and her uncanny ability to throw new light on even the most ubiquitous of subjects.

In today's BizNews Briefing, with US tariffs looming, DA's Emma Powell warns SA faces a diplomatic crisis as Ramaphosa's envoy falters.

Investors flock to catastrophe bonds as climate risks rise, while Tesla enters India's car market and ASML rides the AI boom.
Strap in and turn up the volume for an unfiltered, no-holds-barred episode of The Clay Edwards Show, where we dive deep into the raw realities shaping our culture and the fight for America's soul. In this powerful discussion, we reflect on the one-year anniversary of the Trump assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania—exploring how a split-second turn of the head not only saved a leader's life but averted a national catastrophe that could have spiraled into chaos, revenge, and civil unrest. We unpack what America dodged: a potential bloodbath, mass upheaval, and the unraveling of our society, all viewed through the lens of hindsight and the ongoing battle against corruption at every level. Shifting gears, we call out the systemic rot in places like Jackson, Mississippi—issues no one else dares touch, from entrenched evil in power structures that don't care about everyday people to the sad truth that everyone knows it's broken but few fight back. We challenge the "positive solutions only" crowd who've been running things for years: What exactly are these solutions? We've seen too few results amid the decay, and it's time for real talk on reclaiming our communities and country. Plus, we bust the myth that Americans won't do the tough jobs like construction, farming, or manual labor—backing it up with hard stats showing native-born workers already dominate these fields. We expose how cheap immigrant labor suppresses wages, hurts vulnerable communities, and perpetuates a distorted economy, all while liberals like Gavin Newsom push outdated narratives that insult hardworking folks. We also hand out our FAFO (F'd Around and Found Out) championship to a North Mississippi fool who learned the hard way you can't bail out a buddy from jail with your own warrants active, and spotlight a Hattiesburg lawyer's downfall after pocketing a widow's wrongful death settlement—proving accountability catches up when you mess with the wrong people. This episode is a dose of reality radio: no sugarcoating, just bold takes on corruption, culture wars, and the urgent need to spotlight the issues tearing at America's fabric. If you're ready for honest conversation that challenges the status quo, hit play now and join the fight.
Esoteric elements are present in many religious traditions, where discourses of secrecy help reinforce identity and fulfill important social and cultural roles within religious communities. Our guest, Hartley Lachter, author of "Kabbalah and Catastrophe," explores how Jewish mystical thought developed in response to historical trauma and community crises. We discuss the broader social and cultural functions of secrecy in religious life, examining how discourses of revealed knowledge create power structures, strengthen community bonds, and inspire innovative responses to calamity.

By Artemis.bm's figures, annual catastrophe bond issuance across all the types of deals we track has now shattered the previous full-year record in just over six months in 2025. At over $17.8 billion, new issues of Rule 144A catastrophe bonds and private cat bonds have broken the record set in full-year 2024. The outstanding cat bond market has grown by roughly 15% since the end of last year and average cat bond deal sizes are up notably as well. Listen to this podcast episode for more insights into the record year of catastrophe bond issuance in 2025, according to Artemis.bm's data.
On Monday's Mark Levin Show, the catastrophic flash flooding along the Guadalupe River in Central Texas over the weekend claimed at least 91 lives, with around 20 people still missing. The disaster struck Kerr County, particularly devastating Camp Mystic, an all-girls Christian summer camp, where 27 campers and counselors, including young teens and the camp director, perished while trying to save others. It's disgusting that the media and Democrats immediately politicize the event, blaming climate change or budget cuts. Also, there's a fake MAGA faction within conservatism that harbors dangerous ideologies, including affinities for Hitler sympathizers and antisemitic rhetoric. Darryl Cooper promotes revisionist history, such as portraying Churchill as a villain and Hitler as misunderstood. Later, the big, beautiful bill is not perfect, but it's pretty good. Republicans didn't have enough votes to cut anymore. Democrats are trying to tell you there are Medicaid cuts. No, it's cutting off people who shouldn't be getting Medicaid. A Convention of States can fix systemic spending issues. Afterward, a district judge in Boston issued a temporary restraining order blocking the defunding of Planned Parenthood as part of the big, beautiful bill President Trump signed. This ruling, which contradicts a Supreme Court decision limiting nationwide injunctions by lower courts, violates constitutional separation of powers. Congress and the president, as elected branches, have the authority to defund organizations, not a district judge. Finally, FBI Director Kash Patel, Deputy Director Dan Bongino, and Attorney General Pam Bondi aren't covering up a Jeffrey Epstein "client list" after a DOJ-FBI memo denied its existence and reaffirmed Epstein's suicide. These three have integrity and lack a motive for a cover-up. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Artemis Live - Insurance-linked securities (ILS), catastrophe bonds (cat bonds), reinsurance
Listen to this podcast episode for a handy recap of our most read catastrophe bond, insurance-linked securities and alternative reinsurance capital news, from the week-ending July 6th 2025. Listen to a recap of our most read catastrophe bond and insurance-linked securities (ILS) news of the last week. As we continue to experiment with artificial intelligence tools, we hope this summary provides an easy way to listen to a recap of some of last week's top stories. This week we covered the fact the record set in the cat bond market for the first-half of the year, commentary on the reinsurance renewals and the fact capital outstripped demand, a number of people moves in the ILS fund sector, new initiatives and innovation, as well as news on the sidecar sector and other areas of insurance-linked securities.
Des dizaines de personnes sont toujours portées disparues au Texas. Les importantes inondations qui ont touché cet État du sud des États-Unis ont déjà fait au moins 82 morts, dont 28 enfants. Face à des pluies abondantes, le fleuve Guadalupe s'est transformé en torrent meurtrier en moins d'une heure. Une colonie de vacances a notamment été inondée. Dix jeunes filles et une monitrice figurent parmi les personnes encore recherchées. Le journal local Houston Chronicle publie d'ores et déjà les photos de personnes décédées et de celles recherchées. Notamment deux sœurs mortes agrippées l'une à l'autre. Face à la violence du drame, les médias se posent aussi des questions sur les responsables. Pourquoi n'y a-t-il pas eu d'évacuation alors que les autorités locales ont reçu des alertes 24 à 48h avant le drame ? CBS News Texas a notamment tenté de poser la question hier (6 juillet 2025) lors d'une conférence de presse locale de Kerr : « C'est une bonne question mais nous nous concentrons pour l'instant sur les recherches pour sauver 11 jeunes filles toujours disparues », répond le sheriff. Le journaliste de CBS News décrit une conférence de presse brusquement écourtée. C'est à cette question que le Houston Chronicle consacre son éditorial. « Il est bien sûr impossible de prévoir des inondations plusieurs jours en avance. Mais jeudi à une heure de l'après-midi, le service de météorologie nationale avait suffisamment d'informations pour lancer une veille sur les inondations. Ils ont finalement diffusé une alerte 12h plus tard à 1h du matin le vendredi. Des alertes au niveau local auraient dû être déclenchées automatiquement. Ces alertes n'ont été diffusées que 4h avant la catastrophe qui a surpris les habitants vers 7h du matin vendredi. « Les autorités du Texas ont-elles fait suffisamment pour éviter les dégâts causés par les inondations ? », questionne la Une du Dallas Morning News aujourd'hui. Plus précisément : les suppressions d'emplois fédéraux menées par l'administration Trump ont-ils entravé le service de météorologie publique. Les autorités locales et nationales ont pointé du doigt le manque d'alerte des météorologistes. Mais, ces derniers affirment que les autorités avaient reçu suffisamment d'alerte pour réagir et lancer une évacuation. Le journal ajoute que les équipes de météorologie nationale ont perdu 25% de son personnel. Ainsi l'agence locale de New Braunfels n'a plus de coordinateur météorologiste. C'est lui qui travaille normalement avec les agents locaux chargés des inondations et d'autres désastres. Face à l'ampleur de la catastrophe, la presse nationale s'interroge également La région du Texas Hill Country n'est pas étrangère à ce type d'inondations, rappelle le Washington Post. Pourquoi ont-ils été pris au dépourvu ? Alors que les météorologistes annonçaient de fortes pluies dès jeudi, certaines autorités locales ne se préparaient qu'aux célébrations de la fête nationale vendredi, raconte le journal. Au-delà de la place vacante du coordinateur de météorologie locale due à la réduction d'effectifs ordonnée par l'administration Trump, le journal soulève également le manque de système d'alerte efficient dans la zone. Les autorités locales avaient voulu en mettre un en place, mais il avait été jugé trop extravagant et trop coûteux. Il y a huit ans, les responsables du comté de Kerr avaient en effet demandé de faire davantage pour construire un système d'alerte autour des rives de la rivière Guadalupe, rappelle le New York Times. Mais comme aucune mesure n'a été prise, il n'y avait ni sirène ni dispositif de surveillance précoce, ces derniers jours. Les alertes par SMS sont arrivées tardivement dans une zone où la couverture téléphonique n'est pas stable. Une partie du Texas est toujours sous une pluie abondante. L'alerte aux inondations a été prolongée au moins jusqu'à ce soir (7 juillet 2025) 20h, heure locale. Haïti : « La mission de maintien de la paix doit avoir un mandat adapté » Une fois de plus, Human Rights Watch s'alarme de la situation en Haïti et interpelle la communauté internationale. Il faut plus de moyens pour la Mission multinationale qui ne parvient pas, pour l'instant, à lutter contre les gangs et à limiter leur emprise, plus de moyens aussi pour aider les déplacés qui sont aujourd'hui 1 300 000 dans le pays. Les équipes de Human Rights Watch se rendent régulièrement en Haïti. Cette fois, il était trop dangereux de se rendre à Port-au-Prince. C'est donc à Cap Haïtien, à 200 km au nord de la capitale que s'est déroulée la dernière mission. Nathalye Cotrino, chercheuse senior auprès de la division Amériques de Human Rights Watch et ses collègues ont mené toute une série d'entretiens avec des travailleurs humanitaires, des représentants de la société civile et des agences des Nations unies. Les gangs ont mis au point de nouvelles stratégies pour vider certains quartiers de Port-au-Prince de leurs habitants : messages sur les réseaux sociaux pour prévenir d'une attaque imminente ou incendies des habitations en bordure des zones visées. L'expansion territoriale des gangs affecte progressivement des couches plus aisées de la société. Cap Haïtien, lieu de refuge, n'a pas les moyens de faire face. Il n'y a pas de centres pour les accueillir. Chacun doit se débrouiller pour se loger chez un proche ou en louant une chambre. « La plupart d'entre eux dorment à 7, 10 ou même 15 personnes dans la même pièce », explique Nathalye Cotrino de HRW. Ils dorment à même le sol, sur un morceau de carton ou de plastique. Tous nous ont raconté qu'ils ne mangent pas tous les jours. Certains n'avaient rien avalé depuis 2 jours. Cap Haïtien est dans une situation économique difficile, notamment à cause de la violence à Port-au-Prince. Mais cette situation s'explique aussi par la concentration de l'aide humanitaire dans la capitale et dans le sud du pays. À Cap-Haïtien, il n'y a aucune aide humanitaire. Le gel des financements américains a considérablement réduit les capacités d'action des agences onusiennes. Elles ne peuvent tout simplement pas aider tout le monde. » Les déplacés interrogés par Human Rights Watch disent ne pas recevoir d'aide non plus de la part du gouvernement ou de la ville. Cap Haïtien n'a même pas de registre qui permettrait de savoir combien ils sont. Human Rights Watch demande à la communauté internationale d'agir de toute urgence. La Mission multinationale d'appui à la sécurité est sous-équipée. Elle n'est composée que de 991 hommes sur les 2.500 annoncés et n'a pu ouvrir que 3 des 12 bases promises. Elle n'a plus l'argent pour fonctionner jusqu'en septembre. Pour Human Rights Watch, il faut la transformer en mission des Nations unies, mais avec un mandat spécifique. « Nous avons affaire à du crime organisé avec des ramifications internationales, justifie Nathalye Cotrino. Ça ne peut donc pas être une mission de maintien de la paix classique. Il lui faut un mandat adapté, mais aussi des objectifs plus larges comme la stabilisation politique, la restauration du système judiciaire et de l'état de droit. Ça ne sert à rien de capturer les chefs des gangs si on n'a pas de programmes de réinsertion pour les jeunes car on sait que les effectifs des groupes criminels sont composés de 30 à 50% de mineurs. » Mais pour obtenir la création d'une mission des Nations unies, il faut qu'un pays se saisisse du dossier. Pour l'instant, personne ne semble prêt à assumer ce rôle. Haïti : « Les citoyens haïtiens n'ont presque plus aucun droit » Cette situation catastrophique a évidemment des conséquences très lourdes sur les droits des Haïtiens bafoués. Des milliers de familles n'ont pas de quoi répondre aux besoins de base à Port-au-Prince ou dans certaines zones du pays, dans un État en faillite dans l'impasse politique. Les citoyens haïtiens n'ont presque plus aucun droit selon l'Office de la protection du citoyen. Le protecteur du citoyen Wilner Morin appelle l'État à prendre ses responsabilités. Son interview réalisée par notre correspondant Peterson Luxama est à retrouver dans cette tranche. Tour de France : où sont les cyclistes péruviens ?

About The Catastrophe Hour "One of our most important essayists . . . The Catastrophe Hour is proof that writers and readers can choose to engage with their lives in a manner that is radically disengaged with the pointless noise of the day.” — Washington Examiner From the acclaimed author of The Unspeakable and The Problem with Everything comes a new collection of unputdownable essays. Written between 2017 and 2024, these essays are classic Meghan Daum, showcasing her wit, her intellect and her uncanny ability to throw new light on even the most ubiquitous of subjects. Arranged in the order that they were written, the essays touch on themes of aging, solitude, creative life, money, the changing media landscape, death, and the meaning of home. Daum's unflinching honesty and exacting observations secure her reputation as one of our most important and enduring essayists.
In 1897, Gustav Klimt led a group of radical artists to break free from the cultural establishment of Vienna and found a movement that became known as the Vienna Secession. In the vibrant atmosphere of coffee houses, Freudian psychoanalysis and the music of Wagner and Mahler, the Secession sought to bring together fine art and music with applied arts such as architecture and design. The movement was characterized by Klimt's stylised paintings, richly decorated with gold leaf, and the art nouveau buildings that began to appear in the city, most notably the Secession Building, which housed influential exhibitions of avant-garde art and was a prototype of the modern art gallery. The Secessionists themselves were pioneers in their philosophy and way of life, aiming to immerse audiences in unified artistic experiences that brought together visual arts, design, and architecture.

Orphaned by twelve, the only surviving sibling, and later a mother navigating divorce and the unraveling of her family, Casey opens up about the grief that shaped her life—and the unimaginable loss of her firstborn son, Eric, at age twenty. With raw honesty and powerful spiritual reflection, Casey shares how she's found meaning through the pain, and how love, resilience, and hope carried her through her family's darkest moments. This conversation is a testament to surviving the unimaginable—and learning how to live again.

In this episode of That Tech Pod, Kevin and Laura dig into the Gemini Credit Card, a flashy, crypto-backed rewards card created by the Winklevoss twins and issued by WebBank and Mastercard. Is it a smart move for crypto enthusiasts or just another fintech gimmick?We break down the card's history, perks, and pitfalls: you'll earn up to 4% back in crypto on everyday purchases, choose from 60+ cryptocurrencies, and enjoy no annual fees. But while the concept is solid, users report some real concerns including slow customer service, transaction issues, and tricky tax implications. We compare Gemini to the Chase Sapphire Reserve and debate whether instant crypto rewards outweigh the lack of travel perks and occasional service headaches. We read actual user reviews, share personal experiences, and reflect on the broader trend of crypto creeping into everyday finance.Is the Gemini card a useful tool for passive crypto investing or a volatile ride best avoided? Tune in for the full breakdown. Plus and hear about that time Laura got unlimited coffee and went to a Ja Rule party thanks to another infamous credit card, Magnesis.

« Drame au lycée Boganda à Bangui : 29 morts : Touadéra décrète trois jours de deuil », titre Afrik.com qui parle d'un « drame d'une ampleur inédite », « une violente bousculade, survenue en pleine session du baccalauréat ». « A l'origine du chaos », explique Afrik.com, « l'explosion d'un transformateur électrique de la société nationale ENERCA, qui a semé la panique, parmi les candidats et le personnel éducatif (…) les élèves ont cru à une attaque ou à un danger imminent. Pris de panique, ils se sont précipités dans les couloirs, ce qui a déclenché une bousculade incontrôlable ». Corbeau News Centrafrique ne cache pas sa colère, à l'égard de la Société nationale d'Électricité, à laquelle il s'adresse en ces termes : « combien de temps faudra-t-il pour que vous cessiez de tuer les Centrafricains ? » Corbeau News Centrafrique accuse : « ce drame survenu en plein cœur de la capitale n'est, pas une exception. Il s'inscrit dans une longue série de négligences criminelles de la part d'Enerca, une entreprise censée fournir de l'électricité, mais qui sème la mort à chaque coin de rue ». Le journal en veut pour preuve cet accident survenu le 23 mai dernier, « lorsqu'un jeune vendeur d'œufs a été électrocuté en plein centre-ville de Bangui, foudroyé par une fuite de courant dans une flaque d'eau. » Catastrophe prévisible Corbeau News Centrafrique s'en prend aussi au ministre de l'Éducation nationale, qui a publié « un communiqué qui tente de calmer les esprits, mais ne fait qu'attiser la colère », estime le journal, « car le communiqué du ministère parle de « quelques cas de pertes en vies humaines ». « Comme s'il s'agissait, estime le journal, d'une statistique banale… C'est une insulte aux familles endeuillées ». « Des élèves ont perdu la vie, piétinés, électrocutés, dans la panique causée par l'explosion d'un transformateur, installé depuis des années sans maintenant adéquate, une bombe à retardement qu'ENERCA a laissé en place, en toute connaissance de cause », accuse encore Corbeau News Centrafrique. Intégrité territoriale À lire également dans la presse africaine, les commentaires sur l'accord de paix qui doit être signé ce vendredi à Washington, entre la RDC et le Rwanda. « RDC – Rwanda : un accord de paix pour conserver l'intégrité territoriale congolaise », titre l'Agence Congolaise de Presse, qui cite Osée Yandi, présenté comme un « analyste des questions politiques extérieures », selon lequel, « cet accord doit également permettre à la RDC, de se reconstituer en tant que force pour pouvoir dissuader tout ennemi qui adviendrait sur son terrain ». Jeune Afrique de son côté, se demande : « Quel est l'intérêt des Américains ? » alors que « la nouvelle administration américaine se montre plutôt indifférente, voire hostile à l'égard du continent africain. ». Ce qui semble le plus évident, aux yeux de Jeune Afrique, c'est que « l'activité minière » intéresse au plus haut point l'administration américaine. « En sécurisant leur approvisionnement en minerais critiques, poursuit Jeune Afrique, les États-Unis concurrenceraient leur rival chinois, déjà bien implanté en RDC. » De manière plus anecdotique, il faut noter aussi que « Donald Trump est en quête d'une victoire diplomatique » qui, nous dit le site panafricain, « consacrerait son statut de faiseur de paix ». Prix Nobel Un statut que Félix Tshisekedi serait prêt à lui accorder ! Dans une interview exclusive à la journaliste américaine Hariana Veras Victoria, le président congolais, se déclare ainsi « prêt à voter pour Donald Trump au prix Nobel de la Paix, si ce dernier parvient à en finir avec la guerre injustement imposée à son pays par le Rwanda ». C'est ce que rapportent Objectif-Info.cd et le Journal de Kinshasa, selon lequel Tshisekedi ne « cache pas son admiration pour le président américain ».

The Nakba, the “Catastrophe”. It wasn't just a moment in 1948 — it is a reality that has lived on for 77 years. It's in the bulldozed homes of Gaza. It's the children laying underneath the rubble. It's in the olive trees ripped from the West Bank. It's in the silence of classrooms where students are told not to speak the word “Nakba” out loud. It's in every grave of a journalist, every mother's scream, every child who's asking– where is the world? Today, we're joined by none other than Leanne Mohammad, British Palestinian activist who ran as an independent candidate for Ilford North in the British general elections, came just 500 votes within toppling the current Health Secretary of Kier Starmer's cabinet. Tipped by some to be the next Prime Minister. We will be talking about the Nakbah of yesterday, and how the legacy of the Nakbah inspires us today.You can find Leanne Mohamad here:X: https://x.com/LeanneMohamadIG: https://www.instagram.com/leannemohamad/?hl=enFind the host here:X: https://x.com/ArhaamMukatiIG: https://www.instagram.com/momukati17Become a member here:https://www.thinkingmuslim.com/membershipOr give your one-off donation: https://www.thinkingmuslim.com/donateYou can also support The Thinking Muslim through a one-time donation: https://www.thinkingmuslim.com/DonateListen to the audio version of the podcast:Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7vXiAjVFnhNI3T9Gkw636aApple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-thinking-muslim/id1471798762Purchase our Thinking Muslim mug: https://www.thinkingmuslim.com/merchFind us on:X: https://x.com/thinking_muslimLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/the-thinking-muslim/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/The-Thinking-Muslim-Podcast-105790781361490Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thinkingmuslimpodcast/Telegram: https://t.me/thinkingmuslimBlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/thinkingmuslim.bsky.socialThreads: https://www.threads.com/@thinkingmuslimpodcastFind Muhammad Jalal here:X: https://twitter.com/jalalaynInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/jalalayns/Sign up to Muhammad Jalal's newsletter: https://jalalayn.substack.comWebsite Archive: https://www.thinkingmuslim.comDisclaimer:The views expressed in this video are those of the individual speaker(s) and do not represent the views of the host, producers, platform, or any affiliated organisation.

From climate panic to political cover-ups, this two-part exposé pulls back the curtain on today's manufactured narratives and devastating truths. First, Tara critiques the media's relentless heatwave hysteria, contrasting it with ignored record-setting cold snaps and polar ice gains. She challenges the climate change agenda's selective reporting and explains how solar cycles, not CO₂, drive weather extremes. Then, in a heartbreaking deep dive, Tara exposes the Biden administration's mishandling of over 300,000 missing migrant children—many of whom were trafficked into slavery and abuse. With revelations from whistleblowers, RFK Jr., and DHS, she lays bare a system that abandoned identification safeguards and enabled mass exploitation. Combined with escalating tensions in Iran and global instability, the message is clear: we are living through a crisis of truth, morality, and leadership.
Rosemary Kelanic, Director of the Middle East Program at Defense Priorities, discusses the Israel-Iran war, U.S. involvement, whether regime change is the objective, and the risks of escalation.

SpaceTime with Stuart Gary | Astronomy, Space & Science News
In this episode of SpaceTime, we explore some of the most recent and intriguing developments in space exploration and cosmic phenomena.Starship's Latest Test Flight Ends in ExplosionSpaceX faces another setback as its 10th Starship test flight ended in a massive explosion at the Massey test stand in Boca Chica, Texas. The incident occurred just minutes before a planned static fire test of the upper stage. We discuss the details of the explosion, including early indications of a cryogenic methane leak and the implications for SpaceX's ambitious goals of interplanetary transport.A Cosmic Anomaly and Its Frightening Implications for EarthA newly discovered cosmic anomaly challenges our understanding of galaxy evolution. A distant spiral galaxy, housing a supermassive black hole billions of times the mass of the Sun, is emitting colossal radio jets stretching over 6 million light years. This finding raises alarming questions about the potential future of our own Milky Way and the dangers posed by similar jets originating from Sagittarius A, our galaxy's supermassive black hole. We delve into the study's findings and their implications for life on Earth.New Insights into Neutron StarsA groundbreaking study has provided new insights into the birth masses of neutron stars, revealing that they typically form with a mass around 1.3 times that of our Sun. Using advanced modeling techniques, researchers analyzed a sample of neutron stars in binary systems to understand their formation history better. This research opens up new avenues for interpreting gravitational wave detections and understanding the lifecycle of massive stars.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Societyhttps://academic.oup.com/mnrasNature Astronomyhttps://www.nature.com/natureastronomy/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-space-astronomy--2458531/support.00:00 This is Space Time Series 28, Episode 75 for broadcast on 23 June 202501:00 Starship's latest test flight ends in explosion12:15 A cosmic anomaly and its frightening implications for Earth22:30 New insights into neutron stars30:00 Science report: Cannabis use linked to increased cardiovascular disease risk
