The arrest of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor on Epstein-related allegations of misconduct in public office stuns the world. He has not been charged with any offence – but is the former Prince's past damaging the Monarchy irreparably? And when will the victims of Epstein and his circle get justice? Plus, as the vindictive Gorton & Denton by-election enters its last few days we talk to Jack Walton of local news site Manchester Mill about the vibe on the ground… and whether it's worse for Labour if the Greens or Matt Goodwin of Reform win. • Manchester Mill is part of the Mill Media group creating good old-fashioned local journalism for British cities including Liverpool, Sheffield, Glasgow and Bristol. ESCAPE ROUTES • Rachel has been watching the Winter Olympics as a chaser to Heated Rivalry on Sky. • Jack has been reading Laughter in the Dark by Vladimir Nabokov • Andrew recommends escaping modern politics by diving into '90s politics and C4's The Tony Blair Story.

Last episode we broke down the Offense position by position. This episode we look at the defensive side of the ball.Jeff Chadiha (NFL Network/NFL.com/@JeffriChadiha), Sam McDowell (Kansas City Star/KCStar.com/@SamMcDowell11) and Soren Petro (Sports Radio 810 - WHB/810whb.com/@SorenPetro) break down each position group using a scale of 1 (best case) to 10 (worst case), to determine where the Chiefs Defense needs attention this offseason. - Really thin at Defensive Tackle!- After Karlaftis, there's not much at DE.- The linebackers should still be solid.- Corner looks good with McDuffie, without?- Safety is a problem!⁃ Conclusions.
Could Reform really carry out a Trump-style, Project 2025-inspired shock-and-awe assault on Britain's institutions and politics if they get into government? America's much-vaunted system of checks and balances turned out to be made of tissue paper. Is Britain's hand-me-down constitution any more robust? We look at the firewalls in our politics with special guest James Ball of The New World paper. Plus, what did we make of Channel 4's epic Tony Blair documentary? Did it let Tonty off too lightly? And in the Extra Bit for Patreon people: Barack Obama thinks aliens are real. Why do UFOs hold such a weird grip on the political imagination?

“There is no British security without Europe,” Keir Starmer told the Munich Security Conference this weekend. Nobody wants a wider war in Europe, but we might get one anyway – and Britain's military isn't ready for it yet. So how can we change our armed forces and our wider society to ensure that Putin won't want to risk a conflict with Britain and our allies? Ed Arnold of the Royal United Services Institute joins Ros Taylor and Raf Behr to talk about how Russia uses hybrid “grey zone” attacks on democracies which stop just short of open warfare… the sobering truth about NATO Article 5… and why we have to budget for the next threat but one, because “What comes after Putin may be worse.” ESCAPE ROUTES • Raf rewatched Terry Gilliam's Brazil. • Ed has been enjoying England in the Six Nations rugby. • Ros recommends the comedy drama about stand-up comedy, Is This Thing On? , out now in cinemas. www.patreon.com/ohgodwhatnow Presented by Ros Taylor and Rafael Behr.

Remember Trump's first term when we talked about “kakistocracy”: rule by the worst of the worst? They're back and they're worse than ever – not just Trump and his entourage but his corrupt Mini-Mes around the world.

Ian Hughes, author of Disordered Minds : How Dangerous Personalities Are Destroying Democracy, joins Zoë Grünewald and Jonn Elledge to discuss our age of “malignant normality”, Hitler, Mao, and the psychopathology of cruel rule.

A forty-year slow-motion disaster in higher education is reaching its climax – and Labour is left holding the bag. If young people decide a degree isn't worth the massive debt, where does that leave British cities that depend on free-spending undergraduate populations – and universities that are hooked on no-longer-welcome foreign students? Can academia expect much sympathy from graduate generations whose aspirations are held back by crushing loan repayments? And can Labour do anything about it? In a fascinating conversation Oxford Brookes history professor and education commentator Glen O'Hara walks Ros Taylor and Hannah Fearn through the unfolding mess.

Federal Tech Podcast: Listen and learn how successful companies get federal contracts
One famous cartoon featured two vultures sitting on a fence; one turned to the other and said, "I am sick of waiting, let's kill something." When it comes to preventing cyberattacks, the federal government is well known for a defensive approach. They have security systems, air gap systems, and even a zero-trust approach. This defensive approach is essential but may not give the federal government a complete view of how to protect data. Today, we sat down with Chris Jones, Nightwing's Chief Technical Officer. He outlines some of the characteristics of a concept called "offense informs defense." This is a method that Nightwing has developed through over 40 years of working with federal technology leaders. For example, they developed their Counter Trace service, which uses offensive cyber strategies to defend critical infrastructure. The service involves proactively hunting for vulnerabilities, identifying access points, and analyzing digital evidence to expose cyberattacks. During the interview, Jones mentions that the GSA has received this approach well. In fact, Nightwing recently won all six GSA Highly Adaptive Security Services categories. These handle security aspects like Penetration Testing, Incident Response, Risk Assessments, Cyber Hunt, and High Value Asses Assessments. Jones emphasizes the importance of initiative-taking, cybersecurity, AI integration, and collaboration across agencies to adapt to protect federal data.

The human cost of Russia's war on Ukraine is staggering, yet the war continues and Vladimir Putin's position has barely shifted. Despite mounting attrition and international pressure, Moscow shows no sign of backing down. Today on The Bunker, Chris Jones is joined by Ian Garner, historian and author of Z Generation: Into the heart of Russia's fascist youth, to examine the scale of the losses and ask what “peace” would actually look like now. • Buy Ian' book Z Generation: Into the heart of Russia's fascist youth through our affiliate bookshop and you'll be helping the podcast by earning us a small commission for every sale.

In this first episode of the Fat Joy Podcast's Creation Lab Capsule Collection, Sophia sits down with singer-songwriter Mary Lambert (she/her) for an honest, energizing conversation about how creativity weaves through her life, often in ways she didn't expect. Mary opens up about the moments when her creative instincts went quiet, the surprising places they re-emerged, and the turning points that helped her reconnect with her own voice.Together, they explore questions many of us wrestle with:How do you stay creative when you're overwhelmed?What do you do when doubt gets loud?And what if creativity is already showing up for you — just not in the ways you've been taught to recognize?Mary shares thoughtful insights about the pressure to “get it right,” the freedom that comes from lowering the stakes, and the tenderness of returning to self-expression after years of self-criticism. She also talks about the specific challenges and possibilities of nurturing creativity while living in a fat body, and how reclaiming creative space can become a powerful act of self-trust.Whether you're trying to restart a stalled creative practice, craving more meaning in your day-to-day life, or simply wanting to hear from someone who's walking that path with intention and honesty, this conversation offers both inspiration and real permission to begin again.To learn more about how you can tap into your creativity and take an idea from napkin scribble to something alive in the world, check out the Fat Joy Creation Lab.
