To lose a Classic in the stewards' room is tough. For it to have happened to Kieran Shoemark in Paris on Sunday felt impossibly cruel. The disqualification of Shes Perfect following the French 1,000 Guineas - which prompted cries of "cheat" and "disgrace" in the Longchamp paddock - and her jockey's demotion by the Gosdens is the first story up for discussion in this week's edition of The Front Page. Lee Mottershead, Chris Cook and Liam Headd reflect on Shoemark's miserable week in a programme that highlights the very different sort of week enjoyed by Aidan O'Brien and Hollie Doyle. In a show packed with subjects, the team also ask early questions about British racing's new £3.6 million marketing campaign, Ascot's decision to get rid of the ladies' team at the Shergar Cup and worrying news about declining foal crops in Britain and Ireland.

How can it be that in 2025 female jockeys still have to enter male changing rooms to properly do their job?  That is one of the big questions asked in this week's edition of The Front Page, which looks at some of the powerful revelations that emerged in the Racing Post's special report on the appalling standard of some British weighing rooms. Lee Mottershead, Chris Cook and Liam Headd ask why the majority of tracks have not moved faster to improve facilities for riders and why the BHA has seemingly regulated racecourses so meekly. The show kicks off by reflecting on a weekend of quality jumps action at Ayr, where Captain Cody's victory in the Scottish Grand National left Willie Mullins ever closer to denying Dan Skelton a first trainers' championship. We also look back on a day of spring trials at Newbury and ask if any future Classic winners were in action. The programme ends by looking at the 2024-25 Racing Post Jumps Horse of the Year poll. Lee, Chris and Liam reveal where their vote would go but this is a public vote and it's Racing Post readers who will have the final say. 

After more than a week of traumatising global markets with talk of implementing huge tariffs, Donald Trump did a volte face on Wednesday night pausing their implementation on all countries but one: China. It sparked a huge comeback rally in a battered Wall Street. But is this a sustainable turnaround or just a short-lived rebound? On The Morning Brief, ET’s Markets Editor Nishanth Vasudevan speaks to Sankaran Naren, CIO of ICICI Prudential Mutual Fund, to explore the broader impact of this policy u-turn, the escalating US-China trade tensions, and the implications for Indian markets. Drawing on over three decades of experience, Naren offers valuable perspectives on investment strategy, asset allocation, and whether India can outperform amid global volatility.You can follow our host Nishanth Vasudevan on his social media: Linkedin & Twitter Check out other interesting episodes from the host like: Corner Office Conversation with Maersk’s Keith Svendsen and Chris Cook, Tata, Airtel’s DTH merger: Will 2 Negatives make a Positive?, Tesla Tug-of-War: Maha, AP woo Elon Musk, and more!

Once seen as the promising power duo of India’s renewables and EV story, Gensol Engineering and BluSmart Mobility are now at the center of a high-stakes corporate unraveling. Gensol, a key lessor and vehicle supplier for BluSmart, is battling a severe liquidity crisis, with its stock crashing 65%, credit rating slashed to unprecedented lows, and allegations of financial mismanagement emerging. Now, in a desperate move, Gensol is trying to pare ties with BluSmart and sell 3,000 vehicles from its fleet. But this isn’t just about one company’s cash crunch. Host Anirban Chowdhury talks about a business model under stress, a web of related-party deals, and the larger implications for India’s EV ecosystem. Was BluSmart too dependent on Gensol to begin with? Did Gensol’s investors get the short end of the deal? And what does this turmoil mean for the future of EV ride-hailing and clean energy startups?Check out other interesting episodes from the host like: Corner Office Conversation with Maersk’s Keith Svendsen and Chris Cook, Tata, Airtel’s DTH merger: Will 2 Negatives make a Positive?, Tesla Tug-of-War: Maha, AP woo Elon Musk, and more!

In this episode of Discover Lafayette, we welcome Chris Cook, General Manager of KLFY-TV 10. With years of experience in the broadcasting industry both locally and nationally, Chris is at the forefront of delivering the news, weather, and community stories that matter most to Acadiana. Under his leadership, KLFY continues to evolve in the digital age while maintaining its deep roots in local journalism. The station signed on the air June 3, 1955 and has remained a CBS affiliate since day one. Chris shares his journey in television news, beginning right out of high school in his hometown of Alexandria, where he worked as a photographer. He later moved to Lafayette, a place that felt like a natural home due to family ties and frequent visits for Mardi Gras and Festival Acadiens. His early experiences exposed him to various aspects of the newsroom, from audio production to graphics, sales and marketing. Throughout our conversation, Chris provides insights into the evolving landscape of television news, the impact of local journalism on our community, and how KLFY stays connected with its audience in a fast-changing digital world.

Behind the Scenes at KLFY: Chris discusses how news assignments are made, the collaborative effort required to produce a broadcast, and how breaking news can change the course of a reporter's day at a moment's notice. Journalism as a Craft: Whether through formal education or hands-on experience, Chris believes that journalism is a skill honed through practice, curiosity, and a commitment to storytelling with integrity. Navigating the Age of Misinformation: With more people consuming news from social media, Chris advises viewers to critically evaluate their news sources, asking who posted the content and why. First of all, this job is fun. We're working in television. So if you're not having fun, you're doing it wrong. And, there are few things in this world that are more collaborative than a newscast on a broadcast television station. There's so many different hands, so many different eyes, so many different brains that have to come together in order to put that newscast together. The journalists, the producer, the meteorologist, sportscaster, graphic artists, director, cameramen, and sales force."

The Grand National has changed enormously in recent years. Does it now need to change again? That is the big question asked in this week's edition of The Front Page, in which Chris Cook and Jonathan Harding join Lee Mottershead to discuss complaints from a number of British trainers that the sport's most famous race has lost its essence. Should there be a cap on the number of runners a single trainer can have? Would the Grand National be better with win-and-you're-in races? And do people really care who trains the runners or in what country they are trained? After looking forward to Aintree, the team looks back at the Cheltenham Festival, this focusing on last week's announcement that some ticket prices are to be cut, alongside a rebranding of the meeting's second day. To wrap up the programme, we reflect on the Racing Post's Racing and the Economy series, debate the mini revolt that occurred when some of Britain's trainers met in London and, after all that, we even tell you who the panel fancies for next Saturday's Grand National.

A parliamentary committee report highlights a severe staff shortage at AIIMS, with over 2,500 vacancies across faculty and medical staff, severely impacting patient care.

Elon Musk’s SpaceX has partnered with Bharti Airtel and Reliance Jio to bring Starlink’s satellite communication services to India. This landmark collaboration between a global space-tech pioneer and India’s telecom giants could redefine connectivity, bridging gaps in areas with limited land-based infrastructure and bringing mobile connectivity to the 400 million people who are unconnected or under connected. But what led to this partnership between companies that were bickering over spectrum allocation weeks back? What makes this low-earth orbit satellite technology so revolutionary, and how might it transform India’s telecom sector? And will this tie up, which clearly has larger geopolitical implications, hasten regulatory nods for satcom in India? Host Anirban Chowdhury along with ET’s telecom expert Kalyan Parbat decodes it all. Tune in.

In our first half hour, we are talking to two allies and friends, Chris Cook, the host of “Gorilla-Radio” and Phil Taylor, host of The Taylor Report on the different issues we are all covering that confront people in the peace movement in 2025. In our second half hour, we speak about the importance of keeping our fora on campus-community radio stations alive and well when all the state and corporate media have developed into George Orwell's Ministry of Truth. As well, I invite Jazmin Alfaro, a former radio host of CKUW, onto the show to talk about the merits of doing this kind of journalism for herself and for her listeners. This was a LIVE episode of the Global Research News Hour. It was part of our annual fund-raiser for the station.

The Front Page this week tackles some of the most fundamental issues facing the sport - including one that has impacted the man at the head of British racing's governing body. BHA chair Joe Saumarez Smith spoke to the Racing Post about his personal experience of being caught up in betting checks and account restrictions, issues that bedevil so many other punters. Lee Mottershead, Chris Cook and Scott Burton reflect on Saumarez Smith's comments and his hope that they might make the government and Gambling Commission think hard about their actions and policies. Another big issue facing British racing is Ireland's jumps domination. That was evident once again in the first set of entries for the Cheltenham Festival and, in particular, the presence of only five British-trained horses in the Gold Cup. The panel discusses that and then looks at the positives and negatives coming out of the Racing Post's five-part Project Spotlight series that set out to discover what a range of people think about the sport.

In this powerful episode of the Brave Co. Podcast, I sit down with Chris Cook, pastor, coach, and author of Healing What You Can't Erase.

Chris shares his deeply personal story of overcoming profound loss, trauma, and the mental toll of carrying a broken spirit for years.We unpack why transformation outperforms willpower and explore the critical role of community and surrender in true healing. This episode is for any man ready to confront hidden shame, embrace vulnerability, and step into the freedom that comes from a renewed spirit. If you've ever felt stuck in cycles of pain or burdened by unspoken struggles, this conversation offers hope, practical steps, and a reminder that healing is possible.Stay tuned for practical tools, thought-provoking insights, and encouragement to walk the path of transformation.

This week's edition of The Front Page asks if the raceday experience needs to be improved - and also looks ahead to some of the year's very best racedays. Lee Mottershead, Chris Cook and Maddy Playle discuss David Jennings' latest Racing Post column, which argued a day at the races is nowhere near as interesting as it should be. The panel debates what racecourses can do to keep customers entertained. There will be no shortage of thrilling racing entertainment over Christmas, when the sport's fans could be treated to a thrilling Kempton showdown between Constitution Hill and Lossiemouth. We look forward to that clash, the King George and all the top-notch fare set to be served up in Britain and Ireland. The programme also examines the speech made at last week's Gimcrack Dinner by Racecourse Media Group chair Conor Grant, who pulled no punches in his assessment of British racing's current state.
