Lionel Messi - considered by many to be the greatest football player of all time - is two wins away from finally winning a World Cup. And though much of his native Argentina is behind him - they are not the only ones. Continents away, in parts of India and Bangladesh, Argentina and Messi superfans also hope to see him lift the cup. So what’s behind the Messi mania in South Asia, and what does it say about the soft power of ‘the beautiful game?’ In this episode: Somdutta Bhattacharyya, Argentina superfan in India Tamjidul Hoque (@TamjidulH24v2), Argentina superfan in Bangladesh Jasmine Garsd (@JasGarsd), Host, The Last Cup Episode credits: This episode was updated by Tamara Khandaker.

A launch-packed Wednesday kicks off with two rocket milestones — SpaceX's BlueBird 8-10 direct-to-cell satellite launch and Ariane 6's record-breaking Amazon Leo flight — followed by a splashdown update for the science-laden Dragon CRS-34. Then a Chandra double-header delivers the most detailed X-ray view ever of M87's famous black hole jet, plus the discovery of possible supernova wreckage at the very heart of the Milky Way. We close with JWST's extraordinary weather portrait of WASP-121b — a planet where the rain is made of rubies and sapphires.

Story Transcript:Da: Vandet i kanalen glitrede svagt i forårssolen.En: The water in the canal glimmered faintly in the spring sun.Da: De farverige bygninger langs Københavns havnefront stod klare og smukke, men Sofie kunne ikke nyde udsigten.En: The colorful buildings along Københavns waterfront stood clear and beautiful, but Sofie couldn't enjoy the view.Da: Hun stod ved rælingen, hendes tanker et virvar af bekymringer.En: She stood by the railing, her thoughts a jumble of worries.Da: Den nylige diagnose havde overvældet hende.En: The recent diagnosis had overwhelmed her.Da: Kronisk, sagde lægen, og ordene havde hængt i luften som en tung sky.En: Chronic, said the doctor, and the words had hung in the air like a heavy cloud.Da: Hun tænkte på Lukas.En: She thought about Lukas.Da: De havde mødtes under hendes sidste besøg i hans land.En: They had met during her last visit to his country.Da: Nu, tilbage i Danmark, prøvede de at holde liv i forholdet på tværs af kontinenter.En: Now, back in Danmark, they tried to keep the relationship alive across continents.Da: Sofie ønskede ikke at være en byrde.En: Sofie didn't want to be a burden.Da: Hun ville ikke, at hendes sygdom skulle

kæmpede med at skjule sine symptomer.En: The days passed, and Sofie struggled to hide her symptoms.Da: Træthed, smerter.En: Fatigue, pain.Da: Hun ignorerede dem, smilte og gik på arbejde, mødtes med venner.En: She ignored them, smiled and went to work, met with friends.Da: Hendes forestilling om normalitet var sprød som glas – skrøbelig og let ødelagt.En: Her facade of normality was as brittle as glass—fragile and easily shattered.Da: En aften efter arbejde gik hun tilbage til kanalen.En: One evening after work, she returned to the canal.Da: Mennesker gik forbi, nogle cyklede, andre nød en is fra en af de mange kiosker.En: People passed by, some cycled, others enjoyed an ice cream from one of the many kiosks.Da: Sofie standsede på sin sædvanlige plads ved vandet.En: Sofie stopped at her usual spot by the water.Da: Pludselig hørte hun en velkendt stemme.En: Suddenly, she heard a familiar voice.Da: "Sofie!"En: "Sofie!"Da: Det var Lukas!En: It was Lukas!Da: Han stod der, smilende, med åbne arme.En: He stood there, smiling, with open arms.Da: "Overraskelse!"En: "Surprise!"Da: sagde han.En: he said.Da: Sofie mærkede tusind følelser på én gang: glæde, lettelse, frygt.En: Sofie felt a thousand emotions at once: joy, relief, fear.Da: Hvordan skulle hun forklare alt?En: How was she to explain everything?Da: De satte sig på en bænk, køligt vinden kærtegnede deres kroppe.En: They sat on a bench, the cool breeze caressing their bodies.Da: Lukas tog hendes hånd.En: Lukas took her hand.Da: "Jeg har tænkt på dig," sagde han stille.En: "I've been thinking about you," he said quietly.Da: "Fortæl mig, hvad der sker."En: "Tell me what's going on."Da: Sofies øjne fyldtes med tårer.En: Sofie's eyes filled with tears.Da: Hun kunne ikke længere gemme sandheden.En: She could no longer hide the truth.Da: "Lukas," begyndte hun tøvende, "jeg har en kronisk sygdom.En: "Lukas," she began hesitantly, "I have a chronic illness.Da: Jeg har været så bange for at fortælle det."En: I've been so afraid to tell you."Da: Lukas så dybt ind i hendes øjne.En: Lukas looked deeply into her eyes.Da: "Jeg vil gerne være hos dig.En: "I want to be with you.Da: Vi kan finde ud af det sammen," sagde han varmt.En: We can figure it out together," he said warmly.Da: De talte længe den aften, under den stille himmel.En: They talked long into the evening, under the quiet sky.Da: Lukas

Landskabet, med dets kølige skønhed, havde været vidne til noget særligt – to mennesker, der åbnede deres hjerter, og fandt styrke i hinanden.En: The landscape, with its cool beauty, had witnessed something special—two people opening their hearts and finding strength in each other.Da: For første gang i lang tid følte Sofie sig lettet.En: For the first time in a long while, Sofie felt relieved.Da: Hun kunne være sig selv, uden frygt, uden skjul.En: She could be herself, without fear, without hiding.Da: De gik langsomt hjem, hånd i hånd, klar til at møde fremtiden sammen.En: They walked slowly home, hand in hand, ready to face the future together.

Written by Will LochamyPlayed by Reed Lochamy and Greg YaghmaiFor most rounds, there are three questions, and you rank your answers, assigning point values of 5, 3, and 1 each round, depending on your level of confidence. The one you feel best about is your 5-point answer, the one you're just guessing on is your 1-point answer. (For any rounds where the points don't work this way, we'll discuss that during the game.)If you feel certain that you know the answer to all three questions in a typical round, then instead of assigning points of 5, 3 and 1, you can go for 11 points. If you do that and you answer all three questions correctly, you get 11 points (instead of 9). However, if you do that and you miss just one question, you get a 0 for the round.The bonus round question has five possible answers. You get 3 points for every correct answer you submit. Like with going for 11 in typical rounds, though, you can choose to go for 20 in the bonus round (but doing so is risky in the same way that going for 11 in typical rounds is).Have questions about the game or how it works? Please feel free to email those to will@bhammountainradio.com

What does a 40-year career in private service really look like?In this episode of Life in Private Staffing, Philippa is joined by Steven — an industry professional whose career spans decades, continents, and some of the most prestigious private households in the world.From his early days in the Royal Navy, Steven shares how discipline, structure and opportunity led him into private service — landing roles working with royalty, UHNW families, and global principals across Europe, the Middle East, and beyond.Having worked across five continents in roles ranging from butlering and house management to palace operations and staff training, Steven offers a rare, honest insight into how the industry has evolved — and what it really takes to succeed at the highest level today.They discuss everything from travelling the world with UHNW families, managing large-scale private households, and working within royal environments — to the modern reality of smaller teams, faster-paced roles, and changing expectations in luxury service.In this episode, Philippa and Steven cover:
In the latest episode of our spring 2026 season of The Publisher Podcast, we're joined by Ismail Akwei, Editor of Global South World. Global South World is a news brand with a mission to build a more informed and nuanced understanding of the Global South, counteracting parachute journalism and condescension with news and opinion from a network of journalists and creators that actually live across Asia, Africa and South America. Akwei talks about commentary from Western leaders about countries in the Global South, and the issues with minimising whole continents to one negative news story. He also discussed what works well for content distribution, data visualisation, and building active communities, as well as how their creator-led news network approach works in practice.

It's wild to think about, but the continents haven't sunk into lava because of how Earth's crust works. The crust, which includes the continents, is like a giant jigsaw puzzle of solid plates floating on a gooey layer called the mantle. Even though the mantle is hot and partly molten, it's dense enough to keep the crust floating instead of letting it sink. Plus, continents are made of lighter, less dense rock compared to the heavier ocean floors, so they naturally stay on top. Earth's tectonic plates might shift and collide, but they're surprisingly sturdy over millions of years. So, while there's plenty of molten rock beneath us, the continents are safe from sinking anytime soon! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
Chaque jour, chaque semaine, des dizaines de livres nouveaux sont publiés… L'actualité s'impose, chasse l'un pour mettre en avant un autre, mais soudain un livre plus ancien refait surface et revient à la Une. C'est le cas du second roman d'Alexandre Lenot, Cette vieille chanson qui brûle, qui vient de remporter le Prix des cinq continents de la francophonie. L'écrivain Alexandre Lenot vient nous présenter Cette vieille chanson qui brûle, roman couronné par le Prix des cinq continents de la francophonie. Une œuvre traversée par la mémoire, la colère et la nécessité de dire. Encore peu connu du grand public en France, ce prix international, décerné exclusivement par des écrivains et écrivaines issus de toute la francophonie, distingue avant tout une exigence stylistique. « J'ai conçu un objet très littéraire. D'être reconnu pour ça m'a fait immensément plaisir », confie l'auteur. Né aux États-Unis, d'une mère égyptienne, vivant aujourd'hui à Paris tout en s'échappant régulièrement dans le Cantal, Alexandre Lenot revendique un parcours profondément francophone et multiculturel. Une histoire de frères et de fantômes Cette vieille chanson qui brûle est l'histoire de deux frères jumeaux, d'une mère absente, d'un père violent, et d'une forêt menacée par les appétits capitalistes et de l'enfance qu'il faut quitter, qu'il faut bien quitter un jour... L'un des frères est mort – on l'apprend dès les premières pages –, mais il faudra attendre la fin du roman pour comprendre comment et pourquoi. Entre-temps, le narrateur marche, revient vers la demeure paternelle nichée au cœur de la forêt, tandis que les souvenirs affluent : la peur, la colère, la douleur d'une enfance privée de mots. Le roman devient alors une enquête intime, où le narrateur revisite ses souvenirs un à un. Une forêt politique La forêt occupe une place majeure dans le roman. Loin d'un décor bucolique, elle est à la fois refuge, mémoire et enjeu contemporain. Cette forêt, précise l'auteur, est celle d'aujourd'hui : une forêt qui brûle, qui manque d'eau, qui est convoitée par des logiques productivistes et extractivistes. Le roman fait écho à la mort de Rémi Fraisse, jeune militant écologiste tué en 2014 lors du projet de barrage de Sivens. Alexandre Lenot reconnaît cette inspiration. Ce qui l'a bouleversé, dit-il, au-delà de la mort elle-même, c'est la violence du langage politique, capable de retourner la victime en coupable. Invité : Alexandre Lenot, romancier et scénariste, auteur de Cette vieille chanson qui brûle, publié aux éditions Denoël. Et la Chronique Ailleurs avec Mahi Binebine, président de Festival du livre africain de Marrakech, le FLAM. La 4è édition se tiendra du 23 au 26 avril 2026 sous la présidence d'honneur de Jean-Marie Gustave Le Clézio. Musique : Lolo Zouaï & Disiz – « Coquelicot ».

Une histoire de frères et de fantômes Cette vieille chanson qui brûle est l'histoire de deux frères jumeaux, d'une mère absente, d'un père violent, et d'une forêt menacée par les appétits capitalistes et de l'enfance qu'il faut quitter, qu'il faut bien quitter un jour... L'un des frères est mort – on l'apprend dès les premières pages –, mais il faudra attendre la fin du roman pour comprendre comment et pourquoi. Entre-temps, le narrateur marche, revient vers la demeure paternelle nichée au cœur de la forêt, tandis que les souvenirs affluent : la peur, la colère, la douleur d'une enfance privée de mots. Le roman devient alors une enquête intime, où le narrateur revisite ses souvenirs un à un. Une forêt politique La forêt occupe une place majeure dans le roman. Loin d'un décor bucolique, elle est à la fois refuge, mémoire et enjeu contemporain. Cette forêt, précise l'auteur, est celle d'aujourd'hui : une forêt qui brûle, qui manque d'eau, qui est convoitée par des logiques productivistes et extractivistes. Le roman fait écho à la mort de Rémi Fraisse, jeune militant écologiste tué en 2014 lors du projet de barrage de Sivens. Alexandre Lenot reconnaît cette inspiration. Ce qui l'a bouleversé, dit-il, au-delà de la mort elle-même, c'est la violence du langage politique, capable de retourner la victime en coupable. Invité : Alexandre Lenot, romancier et scénariste, auteur de Cette vieille chanson qui brûle, publié aux éditions Denoël. Et la Chronique Ailleurs avec Mahi Binebine, président de Festival du livre africain de Marrakech, le FLAM. La 4è édition se tiendra du 23 au 26 avril 2026 sous la présidence d'honneur de Jean-Marie Gustave Le Clézio. Musique : Lolo Zouaï & Disiz – « Coquelicot ».
First up this week, we welcome back to the program journalist José Luis Granados Ceja to talk about the Greater America plan, and Operation Total Extermination, the latest US policy initiatives for Latin America. José Luis highlights media complicity in framing US relations with the Global South, how Mexico and its allies in the region are responding to these military threats and how the war in Iran is affecting this political landscape. Next up, journalist and organizer Edith Romero talks about corporate colonialism in Honduras, and how the likes of Peter Thiel are piggy-backing on decades of imperialist extraction to create their own sovereign nations not subject to any Honduran oversight or accountability, and how this connects to the oppressive surveillance and anti-human eugenicist manifestations of AI here in the US and globally. José Luis Granados Ceja is an experienced journalist based in Mexico City, co-host of the Canal Once public affairs television program Sin Muros, as well as Soberana: The Mexican Politics Podcast. He covers Latin America for DropSite News, and has worked as a writer, editor, photographer, correspondent, radio host, TV producer, and as on-camera analyst, with a particular focus on social movements and labor unions throughout Latin America. Edith Romero is a Honduran community organizer, researcher, writer, and a Public Voices fellow of The Op-ed Project, The National Latina Institute for Reproductive Justice, and the Every Page Foundation. The News That Didn't Make the News. Each week, co-hosts Mickey Huff and Eleanor Goldfield conduct in depth interviews with their guests and offer hard hitting commentary on the key political, social, and economic issues of the day with an emphasis on critical media literacy.

What if completing your family meant traveling across continents — and healing generations along the way?In this episode of The Sacred Travel Podcast, I'm joined by Joanna Ingram to explore generational healing, surrogacy, and the sacred geography that guided her across 11,000 miles to complete her family.From England to California's expansive landscape and a profound life-and-death threshold, we explore how travel becomes a living initiation into surrender, embodiment, and ancestral healing.What You'll Walk Away With:
Wondering where your next global mobility move could take you?Mona sits down with Frank Cheang of Elysium 8 Holdings, a firm describing itself as more than a brokerage but a strategic gateway. They discuss three countries: Japan, Portugal, and Greece, including where investors are going wrong.Our discussion begins with Japanese real estate, and the numbers alone are worth listening to. Foreign investors are claiming mortgage rates of 3-5%, whilst citizens can borrow at 1% with 100% LTV. Almost 250 episodes into Global Investment Voice, and we are only just landing in Japan… We should have booked this trip sooner.From there, we move on to the better-known programs along the Mediterranean, with benefits that are harder to put a price on. Freedom to move, work, and outstanding education options. Portugal's Golden Visa has raised over six billion euros and offers the fastest route to citizenship in Europe, five years. Whilst Greece takes seven years, they have zero minimum stay requirements, excellent for global investors.Japan, Portugal, and Greece all have something different to offer, whether you're a seasoned investor diversifying or a family weighing up your long-term options. This episode brings all three together to make your choice easier.

Steve Spears has spent over two decades uncovering a profound truth: the 1980s are not really about the music, movies, or fashion—they are about who we were when we first encountered them. Through more than 760 episodes of his work, Spears has interviewed hundreds of artists and personalities who helped define the decade. His approach to these conversations reveals something essential about human connection: when we remove the pressure to promote or defend past work, people become willing to share not just what they did, but why they did it, what they learned from it, and how it transformed them. What makes Steve's guests so compelling is their willingness to reflect on their legacies with genuine honesty and vulnerability. These artists have moved beyond the need for external validation and instead offer wisdom about persistence, connection, and what it truly means to create something that endures. Their stories reveal universal human experiences: the desire to belong, the fear of being left behind, the pain of loss, and the possibility of redemption. When these iconic figures share their personal narratives, they transform from celebrities into genuine human beings whose journeys illuminate what it means to build something meaningful over decades while maintaining authenticity and integrity. For anyone seeking to understand how pop culture shapes our lives and how we can build lasting creative work, Steve Spears has just released his new book Stuck in the '80s: 20 Years of Conversations with Pop Culture Icons Who Defined a Decade and is still on sale. This collection brings together the most impactful interviews and stories from his extensive archive, offering readers direct access to the wisdom and reflections of the artists who created the soundtrack and visual language of an entire generation. To explore his podcast and discover deeper insights about creativity, legacy, and human connection, visit sit80s.com to learn more about his podcast and the ongoing journey of authentic storytelling that continues to resonate with audiences worldwide.

How did the same dinosaur footprints appear thousands of miles apart—on completely different continents?
Did you know that Earth used to have continents that no longer exist today? Millions of years ago, there were massive landmasses that have since disappeared, either sinking beneath the ocean or breaking apart to form new continents. One of these lost continents is called Zealandia, most of which is now submerged under the Pacific Ocean! There's also a famous one called Gondwana, which eventually split into Africa, South America, Australia, and Antarctica. These changes happen because of plate tectonics, where Earth's crust moves over time. It's like a giant puzzle that keeps shifting, and we're still discovering pieces of this ancient history!

About Our GuestsDr. Brandon Ferderer is Head of Programming at Shared Studios and honors faculty at Arizona State University. A writer, performer, storyteller, and expert facilitator, Brandon holds a doctorate in intercultural communications from Arizona State University. His work spans private, education, and nonprofit sectors, harnessing communication technology to bridge cultural divides through dynamic educational and arts programs. His academic and creative works have been featured in Critical Studies in Media Communication and The Seventh Wave, and he has performed at the Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art, Phoenix Art Museum, the Moth Main Stage, and the Dixon Theater in New York City.Ross Phillips is a social studies teacher at Winnacunnet High School in Hampton, New Hampshire. Holding a master's degree in education from the University of New Hampshire, Ross is passionate about bringing the world into his classroom through live virtual connections. An avid world traveler who has explored Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam, Egypt, Italy, Iceland, and beyond, Ross uses real-world application to ignite students' curiosity for non-Western history, law, and geography.What Is Shared Studios?Shared Studios is best known for its immersive portals — repurposed shipping containers equipped with audiovisual technology that place users in a full-body, face-to-face conversation with someone in a similar container in one of 20–25 countries around the world. But at its core, Shared Studios is a network of people: trained facilitators and community members around the globe — from community activists to UN officials — brought together to create meaningful educational connections. Programming can be delivered through the immersive portal environment or via video conferencing.Key Topics DiscussedWhy immersive portals go beyond video conferencing Brandon explains that 65–75% of a message's meaning is communicated nonverbally. While video conferencing restored face-to-face visibility, it also introduced "Zoom fatigue" — the tendency to monitor how we appear to be connecting rather than actually connecting. The portal creates full-body presence and a sense of accountability to your conversational partner, which is essential for building genuine empathy.The origin story of Shared Studios Founder Amar Bakshi originally built the portal concept to help his grandmother feel connected to her native Pakistan — imagining her sharing a chai in a café. The first portals debuted at a New York art gallery and in Tehran, Iran, where the profound emotional responses (women dancing freely behind closed doors, a young man coming out) revealed the technology's transformative potential.How Ross uses the portal at Winnacunnet High School Ross has built years of relationships with curators in Mexico City, Kigali, and other sites. Students recognize facilitators by name, ask about their lives, and engage in deeply personal conversations — including discussions about the Rwandan genocide with survivors and their families, a topic directly tied to New Hampshire's state curriculum standards.The role of the facilitator On-site facilitators like Ross help students acclimate to the unique, distraction-free environment of the portal. The shared studios curators on the other end are trained to handle sensitive or culturally awkward moments as teachable opportunities rather than offenses — creating a space where students can "trip up" and grow.Reaching reluctant learners Rather than leading with heavy topics, Brandon and Ross recommend starting with common ground — video games, food, music, daily life. A memorable example: skeptical Arizona State students connected with young men in Herat, Afghanistan over football and video games, and ended up in a 45-minute conversation about U.S.-Afghan relations.Preparing students for cross-cultural conversations Shared Studios uses "shared understandings" drawn from the Mejlis style of dialogue — an approach rooted in Arab cultures emphasizing equity in speaking time, active listening, and respectful engagement. Brandon also discusses the importance of teaching students the difference between cultural relativism and universalism before entering conversations.Why distance learning matters Both guests emphasize that the problems facing the next generation — climate change, refugee crises, global poverty, genocide — are deeply interconnected and cannot be solved by any one nation or culture. Distance learning, especially in immersive forms, is how we build the global citizens equipped to meet those challenges together.Quotable Moments"Video conferencing has been really great for connecting us. It has not been so good at creating connection between us." — Dr. Brandon Ferderer"I've never walked away from a connection being like, 'Well, that didn't go well.' There's always a nugget." — Ross Phillips"We have to find ways to put young people into conversation with people who are different than them... distance learning is the way that we do that." — Dr. Brandon FerdererResources & LinksShared StudiosWinnacunnet High SchoolFind all episode links and visuals at cilc.org/podcastHost links:Discover more virtual learning opportunities at CILC.org with hosts Tami Moehring and Allyson Mitchell.Seth Fleischauer's Banyan Global Learning combines live virtual field trips with international student collaborations for a unique K12 global learning experience.

Johnny Mac shares five good news stories: In Texas, Sean enlisted an entire preschool class to surprise his fiancée Zoey with a bridal shower; the couple had attended the school at age four and reconnected at a 2021 summer camp. New research from Newcastle University suggests a single 10-minute high-intensity cycling session can quickly change blood molecules, increasing 13 proteins including one tied to DNA repair, potentially helping suppress cancer growth in overweight but otherwise healthy adults aged 50–78. In England, Mark and Carol spent three decades and tens of thousands restoring a closed 1950 train station into “The Old Station,” now open for visits and overnight stays. In the Mediterranean, Cyprus is fighting invasive lionfish by serving it in restaurants.

Bright geometric shapes make the graffiti work of Kenyan artist Wise Two really stand out. Michael Kaloki tracks how his bold style is evolving as he travels to Mexico where. he says, street art is more widely accepted than in Nairobi, a city where he tends to paint murals in densely populated districts like Kibera and Jericho. On this trip to Mexico, Wise Two has started using a more varied colour palette and not just the traditional primary colours of Maasai masks he was known for. He is also using gold leaf on smaller canvases and abstract shapes on a tricky commission to paint cylindrical air-conditioning vents, not the usual flat surface which graffiti artists decorate. This episode of The Documentary, comes to you from In the Studio, exploring the processes of the world's most creative people.

Britain is the latest country to be plunged into yet another espionage scandal after an MP’s husband was arrested on suspicion of spying for China. Beijing’s long been known for its ‘thousand grains of sand’ strategy relying on amateur intelligence collectors, but it’s now increasingly employing cognitive warfare to shape public opinion. This month, we analyse changes to China’s spying ground game on three continents. Louisa is joined by former Australian diplomat Sam Guthrie who’s the author of The Peak, a spy thriller set in Australia and China, national security expert Dennis Molinaro, the author of Under Assault: Interference and Espionage in China's Secret War Against Canada, and human rights activist Lyndon Lee, who has been targeted by Chinese agents in the UK.

SECRETS OF ANTARCTICA — Lost Continents, Giants, Nazis, UFOs & Black Goo - Brad Olsen - TSP #2481
You can find Dr. McCoy's book here: https://www.haymarketbooks.org/.../2631-cold-war-on-five... Transforming battlegrounds in Africa, Asia, and Latin America into veritable hellscapes, the surrogate wars of the Cold War era left behind a legacy of collective trauma and social conflict that have persisted into the present. In this ambitious work, Alfred W. McCoy uses a bottom-up, outside-in approach to offer an unexpected new perspective on the longest, most consequential conflict in modern history. McCoy renders an intimate portrait of both embattled covert operatives and committed antiwar protesters, thus humanizing the history of the Cold War—a history that has too often been told in impersonal terms of economic growth, nuclear arsenals, or diplomatic ententes. As today's great powers devote humanity's scarce resources toward ratcheting up a “new cold war” in the face of a worsening climate crisis, McCoy's history is an important reminder that otherwise- ordinary individuals once helped end a global conflict that threatened nuclear holocaust.

Dr. Alfred McCoy provides a sweeping historical analysis of the Cold War, focusing on how individual covert operatives (“men on the spot”) shaped world events. McCoy explains how his early work on the CIA's role in heroin trafficking during the Vietnam War evolved into a broader study of covert operations and their impact on world history. He characterizes the era as a golden age of intelligence, where the threat of nuclear catastrophe forced superpowers to compete through indirect, clandestine operations. McCoy describes his personal experiences with CIA surveillance and his research into the global drug trade, illustrating how the agency penetrated American civil society and media. He argues that the geopolitical strategies developed during this period, particularly the containment of Eurasia, remain central to understanding modern power dynamics. Finally, the discussion explores the decline of American hegemony, contrasting past interventionist models with current shifts toward a multi-polar world order, noting how historical tactics of surveillance and control are increasingly being applied within the domestic United States.
