Hace 2.000 millones de años, la aparición de las células eucariotas revolucionó la vida en el planeta y con el tiempo darían lugar a protistas, plantas, hongos y animales. Para explicar su origen, Lynn Margulis propuso en la década de 1960 su teoría endosimbiótica, en la que una célula primitiva engulló a otra, dando origen a las mitocondrias. Seis décadas después, un trabajo liderado por científicos españoles, con la ayuda del supercomputador MareNostrum 5 de Barcelona, confirma que la intuición de Margulis fue acertada, aunque replantea el origen de nuestras células como una historia de alianzas microbianas con actores hasta ahora desconocidos.

Four astronauts recently returned from space. Part of the Artemis II mission, they went up as pilots, engineers, and explorers. They came back entirely changed; their perspective on life altered forever. Their professional insights will undoubtedly shape the future of our space program, our return to the moon, and exploration beyond. But perhaps their most important discovery isn't about space at all. Perhaps it's about our life right here on Earth. After launching from Earth and traveling at speeds approaching 25,000 miles per hour, the crew journeyed hundreds of thousands of miles through space. When they returned ten days later, the world leaned in, eager to hear what they had learned. And yet, in interview after interview, the crew of Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch, and Jeremy Hansen struggled to find the words. Awkward silences filled press conferences. Not because they lacked intelligence or clarity, but because they experienced something too big for language. Let me explain.

In this humorous podcast episode, our hosts discuss the unexpected dilemma faced by NASA's Artemis 2 crew: a malfunctioning toilet in space. Mission specialist Christina Koch had to contact Houston to solve this pressing issue, highlighting the unique challenges astronauts encounter beyond Earth's atmosphere. The hosts offer a comedic take on the situation, underscoring the importance of plumbing even in the cosmos. They humorously explore the space bathroom experience, detailing the process of waste management in zero gravity, and the bizarre concept of astronauts 'donating fluids' as they navigate through the hiccups of deep-space exploration.

John 10:1-10Very truly, I tell you, anyone who does not enter the sheepfold by the gate but climbs in by another way is a thief and a bandit. The one who enters by the gate is the shepherd of the sheep. The gatekeeper opens the gate for him, and the sheep hear his voice. He calls his own sheep by name and leads them out. When he has brought out all his own, he goes ahead of them, and the sheep follow him because they know his voice. They will not follow a stranger, but they will run from him because they do not know the voice of strangers.”Jesus used this figure of speech with them, but they did not understand what he was saying to them. So again Jesus said to them, “Very truly, I tell you, I am the gate for the sheep. All who came before me are thieves and bandits; but the sheep did not listen to them. I am the gate. Whoever enters by me will be saved, and will come in and go out and find pasture. The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly.” I am a little late to the party, but this past week, I have been intrigued by the Artemis 2 space mission that launched at the beginning of the month. Because the trip coincided with Holy Week, I didn't have much time to take it in as it was happening. Now with Jesus thoroughly out of the grave, I have been mesmerized by the mission and the moments captured by the crew aboard Integrity, their aptly named spacecraft, which carried some of the kindest, well qualified, yet humble overachievers we could find.Of the many remarkable moments, a few struck me most. The first was just the tightness of the crew, in more ways than one. In all of the photos and videos the crew seems to genuinely care not only about the mission they are on, but for each other too. When asked what it means to be a crew back on earth Christina Koch, one of the mission specialists said, a crew is “a group that is in it all the time, no matter what. That sacrifices silently for each other, gives grace, has the same cares and the same needs, and is inescapably, beautifully, dutifully linked. Planet Earth: You are a crew,” What a hopeful, aspirational description for a place that acts the opposite most of the time. But it's a good thing the crew on Integrity got along so well, because look at how tight those quarters are! For nearly two weeks, those four grown adults were in 316 cubic feet of shared space, which is like being confined to the interior of two mini vans. I mean look at the size of the bathroom! Speaking of the bathroom…there was a small problem with the toilet, which is really no small problem at all. As I understand it, which isn't well, the vent that pushes all their fluid out into space had frozen. That meant they'd have to use bags for all their toileting needs, which sounds difficult in space. So to fix this they rotated their craft so that the vents faced toward instead of away from the sun. And it worked! What a wonderfully human problem and need to see people work together and overcome. These kind of moments led to the contagious moonjoy many talked about, this awe at the moon and those who approached it. The second is this photo. It's a picture of earth setting behind the moon's crated filled surface. This was the first public photo of Artemis II crew's trip to the dark side of the moon. We've seen sunsets, sunrises, and in 1968 we saw earthrise for the first time with pictures from Apollo 8. But never before had we seen all the earth setting, as if we, the whole world, were off to bed at the end of a collective day. Describing that moment the best he could, Reid Weisman said: “No matter how long we look at this, our brains are not processing this image in front of us. It is absolutely spectacular, surreal. I know there's no adjectives. I'm going to need to invent some new ones to describe what we are looking at out this window.”And finally, minutes later from that photo, the crew lost all signal with earth for forty minutes, becoming the first crew to ever travel that far around the moon and that far away from the earth. Once they came back in contact, Christina Koch had this to say to all of us: Click here to watch.We will always choose earth. We will always choose each other. What a beautiful, much needed message to everyone. Such a statement might be the result of the overview effect. It's the profound mental shift that many astronauts report having experienced after seeing Earth from a distance. It is an awe experienced from space. Awe is that moment when something is so vast, so beautiful, so beyond you, that it rearranges how you see everything else. And whether in space or on earth, all experiences of awe encourage attitudes of compassion, generosity, and selflessness. That's according to leading researcher Dacher Keltner, whose book we've read here. Those four astronauts had an overwhelming experience of awe and it shows in statements like: “We will all always choose each other.”It was awe that led the early church to live the way described in our story from Acts. After the resurrection, they experienced awe from the signs and wonders being done by the apostles who were filled with the Holy Spirit. They heard the good news proclaimed by Peter about Jesus who was crucified and killed, but whom God raised up, freeing him from death, and giving everyone forgiveness of sins in his name. All of this drove them toward not just an attitude of generosity, compassion, and selflessness, but action that encompassed all of that. As Luke tells it, these early disciples lived together and shared all they had. If anyone was in need, they would sell what they had to meet that need. They were committed to doing life together: learning, eating, praying, and playing together. In the words of Christina Koch, they were a crew, “a group that was in it all the time, that gave grace, and had the same cares and the same needs, which was the people beside them. They were inescapably, beautifully, dutifully linked, choosing each other, in the most Christ- like way.Now it would be easy to say that this is the goal of the church and of this church, to live like the picture given to us of the first disciples. But if that's the goal, we've already missed it. If all I did this morning was tell all of us to live together, eat all our meals together, come to church everyday, sell our possessions: One, no one would do it. And two, it would just set us up for failure. All of our striving would only show how short we fall, and become a form of works righteousness, believing that what we do will make Jesus love us more or bring about our own forgiveness and salvation. Instead, the exhortation or hope is that you experience awe – not only from artemis 2 and all the moonjoy they brought, but awe at our God who became human, lived, walked, and suffered among us. Awe at a savior who as Peter says in his letter, bore our sins in his body on the cross, so that, free from sins, we are free to live the right way. When we are in awe of our savior, something shifts. We start to see each other differently. We start to live differently.My prayer for us as individuals and as a church, is that we do not seek to live as the early disciples. If that's our aim, we will only disappoint ourselves and each other. Instead, I hope, I pray you experience awe. And if you are wondering how or where to experience that: Go to a concert, take a walk with a three year old (I'll loan you mine), visit with a centenarian, stare at a rainbow, listen to mozart, look at great art, read the words of Tolstoy or Toni Morrison. Watch the light cascade over a lake at sunset, feel the warmth of the sun at its rising. Be in awe at a crew of four humans who traveled the furthest distance of any human ever before, only to reemerge and say we must choose each other. Most of all be in awe of a savior who chose to go to a cross and rise out of a tomb for you and still chooses each and every day to forgive your sins and give you grace. When we are in awe of that, we too will be more generous, more compassionate, more selfless to our neighbors. We too will choose each other. Amen.

Four humans loop the far side of the Moon, splash down in the Pacific, and then say something that stops me cold: the most overwhelming part wasn't the Moon. It was Earth. After Artemis II, Reed Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch, and Jeremy Hansen describe a perspective shift that's hard to unsee, especially when Koch talks about the blackness of space and how Earth feels like a lifeboat hanging in the universe. That image turns “planet” into “shared home,” and it quietly raises a bigger question: what do we owe the only ship we've got? Today, we take that spaceflight awe and bring it down to street level, because you and I don't need a rocket to feel wonder. I talk about the moments that shaped my own sense of scale, from childhood trips to Colorado and first looks at the Rocky Mountains to decades of riding the American West by motorcycle. Out on the open road, you're not watching life through glass. You're inside the weather, the silence, the distance, and the mystery, and that full-immersion ride can feel like moving meditation. We also get practical about stress and modern life. When schedules, bills, and bad news start to close in, sometimes the best reset is simple: a long ride with no plan, a little time for wonder, or even just stepping outside at night to look up at the stars.

On this episode of Christopher Lochhead: Follow Your Different, let us talk about the recent feat of Humanity with the Artemis 2 and the real value that people are missing. On April 10th, 2026, a capsule named Integrity fell from the sky at 25,000 miles per hour, glowed like a small sun as it tore through the atmosphere, and parachuted into the Pacific Ocean forty miles off the coast of San Diego. Four human beings had just completed the first crewed mission beyond low Earth orbit since Apollo 17 in 1972. The headlines called it historic. Pundits celebrated the engineering marvel. Politicians took their victory laps. And almost everyone missed the real point. The obvious value of Artemis 2 is not the complete story. Yes, it broke records. Yes, the crew flew around the far side of the moon and came home alive. But beneath all of that, something far more powerful was happening in the hearts and minds of people watching from baseball stadiums, living rooms, and classrooms all over the world. You're listening to Christopher Lochhead: Follow Your Different. We are the real dialogue podcast for people with a different mind. So get your mind in a different place, and hey ho, let's go.   What the Headlines Got Wrong about the Artemis 2 The media celebrated Artemis 2 as a technological achievement, and rightfully so. Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch, and Jeremy Hanson flew further from Earth than any humans in more than fifty years. Mission Control called the splashdown a perfect bullseye. These are extraordinary, legendary facts worth celebrating. But facts alone are not the whole story. The real payload of Artemis 2 was not the data collected on the heat shield or the life support systems. The real payload was belief. Specifically, the belief that impossible things can be done. And that belief does not live in a press release or a technical report. It lives inside every person who watched that capsule come home.   The Ten Year Old Who Watched the Sky Tear Open Somewhere out there, a ten year old watched the Space Launch System ignite 8.8 million pounds of thrust and push four human beings toward the moon. That child felt it in their chest, not metaphorically but physically, the way you feel a bass drum at a loud concert. They watched images come back from deep space. They saw the actual moon, airless and ancient, filling the windows of that capsule. They watched a group hug from inside a spacecraft orbiting a place no human had seen up close since before their parents were born. Something happened in that child that no algorithm can manufacture and no curriculum can plan. They saw themselves up there, not as a fantasy but as a possibility. That transmission, the one that says you can do something legendary, does not expire. It sits in the deepest part of who they are and waits for the moment they are standing in front of their own impossible.   Why Human Collaboration Is the Real Miracle Artemis 2 did not happen because of one genius. That story is fiction. It happened because thousands of people got extraordinarily good at their specific piece of the puzzle and trusted everyone else to do the same. Engineers, scientists, mathematicians, Navy divers, mission controllers, and countless others pointed themselves at the same impossible target and hit a bullseye from 240,000 miles away. This is what human beings can do when they decide to truly collaborate across disciplines, institutions, and decades. Artemis 2 is a love letter to that kind of collaboration. And right now, in a moment when cynicism is loud and the news is heavy, this mission is a powerful reminder that we still know how to do legendary things together. We should not let anyone reframe it as just another test flight or just a loop around the moon. It is proof that when humans collaborate to create abundance rather than fight over scarcity, nothing is impossible.

So the ‘royal tour that isn’t’ is in full swing and we have an insider call from Melbourne. Our friend Amy Clark was hanging out with Harry at a men's mental health event this morning, and tells us everything, including which Australian celebrities upstaged the Duke/Prince. But as Harry and Meghan’s itinerary unfurls, Holly Wainwright asks: Is it ballsy or cheeky to be pulling off exactly the kind of tour once reserved for active, working royals? Plus, as Susan Coyle becomes Australia’s first female Army Chief, the celebrations are almost being drowned out by the sexist trolling. The swampy internet discourse feels gutting for every woman who has ever worked her way to the top only to be met with a chorus of 'DEI hire'. Amelia Lester is unpacking: Should women just ignore the trolling these wins attract, or does that leave us living in a fake reality? And, 'hey, girl'. Clare Stephens has researched to PhD level the 'Alex vs. Alix' podcast feud. We’ve got Alex Cooper (the Call Her Daddy mogul) and Alix Earle (the Hot Mess creator) throwing passive-aggressive shade over TikTok about 'fake drama' and 'rock bottom' content. Is it a manufactured publicity stunt for an upcoming interview? Or is there genuine jealousy over a Super Bowl commercial and (gosh) Adam Sandler cameos? Meanwhile, over in Scurrilous Gossip, JLo is reportedly hooking up with Ted Lasso’s Roy Kent (aka Brett Goldstein), and we are invested.

Nasa's four Artemis astronauts: commander Reid Wiseman, pilot Victor Glover, mission specialist Christina Koch and Canadian astronaut Jeremy Hansen have safely returned to Earth, after a nine-day mission around the Moon. Officials say the crew are "feeling great" and will now undergo full medical checks. The Orion module carrying the team back to Earth splashed down in the Pacific Ocean on schedule after a six-minute communications blackout. Nasa officials say teams in the Houston control room monitoring the crew's re-entry were elated and that the mission exceeded expectations, describing it as a "gift to the world". Also: Final preparations are being made in Pakistan for talks between the US and Iran, which could pave the way for a lasting peace deal.

Pat returns from his mission in Iran? In a historic first since the Apollo era, the Artemis II crew just looped around the moon, traveling farther from Earth than any humans in over 50 years and smashing the Apollo 13 distance record. President Trump surprised the astronauts — Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch, and Canadian Jeremy Hansen — with a live phone call from the White House to congratulate them on their groundbreaking mission. Trump praised them as “modern-day pioneers,” highlighted America's return as a frontier nation, and revealed plans for a permanent lunar presence followed by crewed trips to Mars. The astronauts shared their awe at seeing Earth from the moon's far side and expressed excitement about becoming a “two-planet species.” This out-of-this-world conversation marks a thrilling new chapter in space exploration, and Trump even invited the crew to the White House for autographs once they splash down.

AquaMissions Every year in the United States there are over 4-thousand drowning deaths, making it the second leading cause of unintentional injury death for children ages 5-14, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. In Northeast Ohio, due to the proximity to Lake Erie and Cuyahoga River, there is even more reason to teach young people to swim. According to the Great Lakes Surf Rescue Project, in 2025 there were 19 drownings in Lake Erie. With summer fast approaching, the likelihood of accidental drownings increases. The nonprofit program, AquaMissions, now located at Cleveland State University, teaches kids ages 7 to 11 how to swim to help prevent accidental drownings. The "Sound of Ideas" is partnering with Cleveland State University student journalists this semester. On Tuesday's show, we'll highlight the work of Aquamissions with a segment produced by CSU's "Broadcast Pre-Production" class.

Monday, astronauts Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch, and Jeremy Hansen completed their lunar fly by, and with that, the Artemis II mission crew has traveled farther from Earth than any human in history. Now the four astronuats aboard the Orion multi-purpose crew vehicle, which they have nicknamed "Integrity," are making their way back for a splash down in San Diego planned for Friday night. As they say at the NASA Glenn Research Center in Cleveland, "the road to the moon goes through Ohio." We'll talk to NASA Glenn's human exploration chief on Tuesday's "Sound of Ideas" to talk about this mission and the Artemis program in general.

It's Friday, April 3rd, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Pakistani Christian legislator's bill would end forced conversions to Islam On March 31st, a Pakistani Christian lawmaker introduced a bill to criminalize forced religious conversions to Islam with penalties of up to five years in prison, reports Morning Star News. Falbous Christopher submitted the Punjab Protection of the Rights of Religious Minorities Bill 2026 in a renewed attempt to address a long-standing human rights challenge affecting Pakistan's religious minorities, particularly Christian and Hindu women and underage girls. No doubt his bill was inspired by stories like Maira Shahbaz, a 14-year-old Christian girl, who was abducted and forced to convert to Islam and marry a Muslim man in April 2020. Micah 6:8 urges us “to act justly, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God.”  Abduction of girls, forced conversion to Islam, and forced marriages are out of keeping with all three. Trump: We'll be free from Iranian wickedness and nuclear blackmail On Wednesday night, President Donald Trump addressed the nation with an update on “Operation Epic Fury,” the United States war with Iran. TRUMP: “We are on track to complete all of America's military objectives shortly. We're going to hit them extremely hard over the next two to three weeks. We're going to bring them back to the stone ages, where they belong. In the meantime, discussions are ongoing. “Regime change was not our goal. We never said regime change. But regime change has occurred because of all of their original leaders' deaths. They're all dead. The new group is less radical and much more reasonable. “Yet, if during this period of time, no deal is made, we have our eyes on key targets. If there is no deal, we are going to hit each and every one of their electric-generating plants very hard and probably simultaneously. We have not hit their oil, even though that's the easiest target of all, because it would not give them even a small chance of survival or rebuilding. “They have no anti-aircraft equipment. Their radar is 100% annihilated. We are unstoppable as a military force. The nuclear sites that we obliterated with the B2 Bombers have been hit so hard that it would take months to get near the nuclear dust. “We have all the cards. They have none. They were the bully of the Middle East, but they're the bully no longer. Tonight, every American can look forward to a day when we are finally free from the wickedness of Iranian aggression and the specter of nuclear blackmail.” War Secretary Hegseth quoted from imprecatory Psalms On March 25th, War Secretary Pete Hegseth quoted from the imprecatory Psalms and invoked divine wrath against the enemies of the United States during introductory remarks he made at the first monthly prayer service at the Pentagon since the outbreak of the war in Iran, reported The Christian Post. Hegseth read from a military chaplain's prayer used ahead of the January 3rd, 2026 operation to capture Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro which he implied was equally relevant in the battle against the leadership of the Islamic Republic of Iran. Listen. HEGSETH: "Almighty God, who trains our hands for war and our fingers for battle, You who stirred the nations from the north against Babylon of old, making her land a desolation where none dwell: behold now the wicked, who rise against Your justice and the peace of the righteous. "Snap the rod of the oppressor, frustrate the wicked plans of the ungodly. By the blast of Your anger, let the evil perish. Let their bulls go down to slaughter, for their day has come; the time of their punishment. Pour out Your wrath upon those who plot vain things and blow them away like chaff before the wind." Psalm 17:13 says, “Rise up, LORD, confront them, bring them down; with your sword. Rescue me from the wicked.” Constitution expert predicts Supreme Court will affirm birthright citizenship Appearing on The Human Events podcast, Mike Davis, the founder of the Article III Project, predicted that the U.S. Supreme Court appears likely to affirm “birthright citizenship” for illegal aliens.  Listen. DAVIS: “I worry this is a 7-2 case.” JACK PROSOBIEC: “Wow!” DAVIS: “I worry that the only two justices who will have the courage to follow the law here are Justice Clarence Thomas and Justice Sam Alito. I worry that the Chief Justice [John Roberts] and the three Trump justices [Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh, and Amy Coney Barrett] will join the three leftists [Sonia Sotomayor, Elena Kagan, Ketanji Brown Jackson]  who will always vote against President Trump. “The law is so crystal clear here. We the people, the sovereign citizens of America, get to decide who comes, who goes, get to decide who our fellow citizens are. We certainly did not give that away after the Civil War. “The 14th Amendment, the birthright citizenship clause, was to correct an egregious wrong with the Dred Scott Supreme Court decision that held that the freed slaves are not citizens. We fixed that with the 14th Amendment. There is a Supreme Court case that has extended that to lawful and permanent residents of the United States. “There is no way that the proponents of the 14th Amendment ever agreed to give birthright citizenship to illegal aliens!” If the Supreme Court does affirm birthright citizenship for illegal aliens it would be a major blow to both President Donald Trump's agenda and the Constitution. President Trump, first president to hear oral arguments, walked out Remarkably, President Trump heard the oral arguments in that birthright citizenship case in person, becoming the first sitting U.S. president ever to do so. At 11:20am on Wednesday, President Trump expressed his fury in a one-sentence post on Truth Social. “We are the only Country in the World STUPID enough to allow “Birthright” Citizenship!” The Western Journal reported that on the day he took office in January 2025, President Trump issued an executive order directing that only children born to parents “subject to the jurisdiction” of the United States are citizens, quoting from the Fourteenth Amendment. NASA launches Artemis II to travel around the moon And finally, on Wednesday night at 6:35pm Eastern, NASA launched the long-awaited Artemis II mission from Kennedy Space Center in Cape Canaveral, Florida. Listen. ANNOUNCER 1: “Here we go. 10-9-8-7 RS 25 engines lift 4-3-2-1. Booster ignition and lift off. The crew of Artemis II now bound for the moon. Humanity's next great voyage begins.” ANNOUNCER 2: “Good roll pitch.” ANNOUNCER 3: “Houston now controlling the flight of Integrity on the Artemis II mission around the moon.” The crew — NASA astronauts Reid Wiseman, Christina Koch and Victor Glover, as well as Canadian astronaut Jeremy Hansen — were the first people to launch toward the moon since the Apollo 17 mission in 1972, more than 50 years ago, reported NBC News. However, they will not land on the lunar surface. Rather, the 10-day mission is designed as a step toward a landing in 2028, building a base on the moon, and eventually, toward NASA's goal of establishing a long-term presence on the moon. Living on the moon will involve inhabiting shielded, pressurized modules or underground lava tubes to protect against radiation, extreme temperatures, and toxic lunar dust. Among other issues for those who colonize the moon: How would they get power? How would they breathe? and How would they get food?

“I hope humanity will stop for a moment when four humans are on the far side of the moon and be reminded that we can do a better job as humans of just lifting each other up. Not destroying, but creating together.”Rebecca Morelle and Tim Peake speak to Canadian astronaut Jeremy Hansen ahead of the launch of Artemis II.Hansen is one of four crew members of NASA's latest mission into Space. Launching from Kennedy Space Centre in Florida, Artemis II will be heading to the Moon and will circle it before returning home. Although they won't be landing, it's the first time in over half a century that humans have ventured to the Moon.If the mission is successful, it'll result in some historic firsts: Hansen will become the first non-American to leave low-Earth orbit with crewmates Christina Koch the first woman and Victor Glover the first person of colour to do so too.Thank you to the 13 Minutes team for their help in making this programme.

Christina Koch is ready to make history. She is one of the four astronauts of Artemis 2 which is set to head around the Moon in the next few days. During her career as a Nasa astronaut, she has spent more than 300 days aboard the International Space Station, and she was part of the first all-woman spacewalk with Jessica Meir. This mission will take her and her crewmates on a 10-day journey, further into space than any humans have ever gone. Joining Krupa Padhy to talk more about Christina and the importance of having women in space, is planetary and space scientist Professor Caroline Smith, Chair of the European Space Agency Human Spaceflight and Exploration Science Advisory Committee and also Head of Collections at the Natural History Museum, and Natasha Carr, PhD researcher at the University of Leicester, who is researching planetary sciences and space instrumentation. Millions of voters will head to the polls on Thursday 7 May for the biggest set of elections since the 2024 general election. Today a group of organisations, including the Electoral Commission, are calling for the elections to be free from abuse. The Commission's most recent research, following the 2025 local elections, found that 61% of respondents experienced harassment or security threats during the campaign and previous research found that respondents who were women were twice as likely to report serious abuse and those from ethnic minorities were three times as likely. To discuss the impact of this, Krupa is joined by Niki Nixon, Director of Communications and External Affairs at the Electoral Commission, and Hannah Perkin, a Liberal Democrat councillor on Faversham Town Council in Kent. According to the NHS, one in eight known pregnancies end in miscarriage. For some women, they will experience more than one miscarriage, and for those who have more than three, then this is known as 'recurrent miscarriage', which affects around one in 100 women. It is a hugely devastating experience for those going through it, and is one that is often underrepresented on screen. A new BBC drama, Babies, aims to bring this issue in to the light, as it follows a young couple on their journey to parenthood. Siobhán Cullen plays Lisa and she tells Krupa about playing the role. They are joined by Zoe Clark-Coates, CEO of the baby loss charity The Mariposa Trust.The countdown to May's Eurovision song contest in Austria is on. As critics and fans analyse all 35 competing entries, it's Romania's song that is attracting a lot of attention. Choke Me is performed by Alexandra Căpitănescu and is facing criticism from sexual violence campaigners. The song repeats the phrase ‘choke me' around 30 times in three minutes, raising concerns that it glamorises strangulation, a practice linked to brain injury and even death. Alexandra Căpitănescu has defended the track, saying the lyrics refer to the feeling of being overwhelmed by emotion and ‘being suffocated by self-doubt'. Krupa hears from Dr. Catherine White, Medical Director for the Institute for Addressing Strangulation, and Lisa-Jayne Lewis, Broadcaster and Commentator specialising in the Eurovision Song Contest.Presenter: Krupa Padhy Producer: Andrea Kidd
