Why is emotional intelligence no longer optional for leaders facing change and challenging conversations? Amy Jacobson joins Kevin to discuss what emotional intelligence really is and why it matters more than ever. They explore emotional intelligence as a skill, not an identity, emphasizing that EQ shows up in the how and why behind our decisions and behaviors. Amy shares a common misconception about emotional intelligence, clarifying that it isn't about avoiding conflict, being agreeable, or maintaining constant positivity, but about understanding emotions, regulating responses, and choosing actions that move people and outcomes forward. Amy also introduces relatable metaphors, such as treating change as if it were "your baby," to explain why leaders often overlook the emotional experience of those affected by change. Amy's Story: Amy Jacobson is the author of Emotional Intelligence: A Simple and Actionable Guide to Increasing Performance, Engagement and Ownership and her new book The Emotional Intelligence Advantage: Mastering Change and Difficult Conversations. She is an emotional intelligence and human behavior specialist. Previously featured in Fast Company, The Daily Telegraph, News.com.au and more, Jacobson trains corporations, companies and groups large and small in both private and public sectors about the importance of emotional intelligence. She uses simple, actionable strategies—and a bit of tough love where needed—to help leaders and employees understand that no matter what industry you are part of, our biggest challenges are always the same. When she's not working, Jacobson enjoys musicals, basketball, traveling and dining out. She and her husband, Mark, share two teenage children. This Episode is brought to you by...

The US and Israel attacked Iran on Saturday, killing the country's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. The Israeli military launched fresh strikes on Tehran today. However, the US Defence secretary Pete Hegseth said this morning that there will not be "endless war." Elsewhere, in an interview with the Daily Telegraph, US President Donald Trump criticised UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer for not allowing the use of UK bases to support Saturday's attack. Where will all of this lead? To discuss it, Richie is joined by journalists Kevin Barrett and Tony Gosling. www.thisweek.org.ukwww.kevinbarrett.substack.com

C dans l'air du 26 février 2026 - Affaire Epstein : la parole est aux ClintonUne audition très attendue outre-Atlantique. Hillary et Bill Clinton, président des Etats-Unis de 1993 à 2001, vont être entendus aujourd'hui et demain par la commission d'enquête parlementaire américaine sur l'affaire Epstein. Le nom de l'ancien président démocrate est cité à plus de 2 000 reprises dans le dossier, même si ce dernier assure n'avoir jamais eu connaissance des agissements du pédocriminel, dont le scandale éclabousse bien au-delà des États-Unis. Les époux Clinton seront interrogés séparément et à huis clos, d'abord Hillary ce jeudi après-midi, puis son époux, vendredi. Les Clinton ont tout essayé pour se soustraire à cette audition, accusant le président républicain de la commission d'enquête de vouloir créer une diversion pour faire gagner du temps à Donald Trump, qui rechigne à faire toute la lumière sur ce scandale. Mais la publication par la Maison Blanche de nombreuses photos montrant Bill Clinton et l'homme d'affaires, ou sa compagne Ghislaine Maxwell, qui purge une peine de 20 ans de prison pour trafic sexuel, soulèvent de nombreuses questions sur la crédibilité de l'ancien président. Bien au-delà de Washington, le scandale Epstein résonne en Europe, et notamment au Royaume-Uni où il a déjà fait deux victimes. Huitième membre dans l'ordre de succession de la famille royale, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor a été déchu de ses titres royaux, depuis la révélation de sa proximité avec le pédocriminel américain. Le fils préféré d'Elizabeth II aurait partagé des documents confidentiels avec Jeffrey Epstein, lorsqu'il était envoyé spécial du gouvernement pour le commerce entre 2001 et 2011, ce qui a mené à l'ouverture d'une enquête par la police de Thames Valley. "Le roi a fait clairement savoir (…) sa profonde préoccupation par rapport aux allégations [récemment] révélées sur la conduite de M. Mountbatten-Windsor", a déclaré un porte-parole de Buckingham Palace le 9 février. Mais que savait-il vraiment ? Andrew a-t-il été protégé par la famille royale ? Les révélations en cascades concernant l'homme d'affaires américain touchent aussi Peter Mandelson, ambassadeur à Washington jusqu'en 2024. Cette ex-figure du parti travailliste a d'ailleurs été auditionnée en garde à vue mais laissée libre à l'issue de celle-ci, tandis que le scandale menace désormais d'éclabousser aussi le Premier ministre Keir Starmer. En France, c'est la famille Lang qui fait les frais de l'affaire Epstein. Dans une enquête publiée la semaine dernière dans Le Monde, Raphaëlle Bacqué et Ivanne Trippenbach racontent les liens qu'a tissés l'ancien ministre de la Culture et figure du parti socialiste avec Jeffrey Epstein. Au-delà de la correspondance et des dîners dans l'appartement familial des Lang, Caroline, leur fille aînée, avait fondé en 2016 avec Jeffrey Epstein une société offshore domiciliée aux îles Vierges américaines. Cette société fait désormais l'objet d'une enquête par le Parquet national financier (PNF) pour Blanchiment de fraude fiscale. Jack Lang, qui a démissionné de son poste de directeur de l'Institut du monde arabe, dit n'avoir "rien à cacher". L'audition des Clinton peut-elle faire basculer l'affaire Epstein ? Pourquoi le Premier ministre britannique est-il menacé par les révélations sur le prince Andrew et son ancien ambassadeur Peter Mandelson ? Et quelle relation la famille Lang a-t-elle entretenue avec l'homme d'affaires américain ?Experts :- Romuald SCIORA - Politologue, essayiste, spécialiste des relations internationales et de la politique américaine - Valérie CANTIÉ - Journaliste à l'agence de vérification - Radio France - Anne-Elisabeth MOUTET - Éditorialiste - The Daily Telegraph - Philip TURLE - Journaliste britannique, chroniqueur international - France 24

It's election day in Gorton and Denton, and the polls are so tight it's impossible to call a winner. The campaign itself has been an ugly one, with each party accusing the other of dirty tricks and the Greens accused of “manipulating” an area with a large Muslim population in an attempt to divide the contest along religious lines. Telegraph columnist Allister Heath decries this “retrograde step towards sectarianism” as a “disaster for democracy”, as elections should be “decided on whether policies are good or bad, not whether you win the demographic war”.Elsewhere, Camilla and Tim reflect on damaging revelations by the Daily Telegraph that reveal a very different picture about Andrew Mountbatten Windsor's final visit to “say goodbye” to Jeffrey Epstein in New York in 2010.We want to hear from you!

Episode #245 features a rare public interview with Jodie Auster, Global Head of Airports & Travel at Uber, and recently the Strategic Advisor to Uber's CEO, Dara Khosrowshahi. In conversation with Vidit Agarwal, Jodie reflects on her journey from a risk-embracing Melbourne upbringing and early career in emergency medicine to leadership roles across Bain, Scoopon, Thumbtack and Uber, where she scaled Uber Eats through bold marketing bets and later worked directly with CEO Dara Khosrowshahi. She speaks candidly about burnout during COVID,  the craft of executive facilitation, influence without authority, risk as a two-way door, stepping away from a high-profile Regional GM role, and the questions she asks new team members to create the best team culture.

Οι Αυστραλοί, χωρίς να το γνωρίζουν, διακινδυνεύουν καταστροφικές πυρκαγιές στα σπίτια τους, λόγω κάποιων απλών λανθασμένων πρακτικών. Αυτό τουλάχιστον επισημαίνει μια νέα έρευνα, τα αποτελέσματα της οποίας δημοσιεύτηκαν στην εφημερίδα ‘Daily Telegraph'.

C dans l'air du 19 février 2026 - Epstein : Andrew arrêté, le Royaume-Uni sidéréC'est un choc au Royaume-Uni. L'ex-prince Andrew a été arrêté, ce jeudi 19 février, et placé en garde à vue. Des policiers ont indiqué mener des perquisitions dans des résidences de la Couronne. Il est soupçonné d'avoir transmis des documents sensibles à Jeffrey Epstein, après de nouvelles publications de la justice américaine. Dans ces documents, les enquêteurs s'intéressent à des mails datant de 2010 dans lesquels il aurait transmis au financier américain des rapports confidentiels concernant l'Afghanistan, le Vietnam, la Chine et Singapour, qu'il avait visités lors de voyages officiels, du temps où il était émissaire du Royaume-Uni pour le commerce international.Ces soupçons s'ajoutent aux accusations de viol de Virginia Giuffre, morte en avril 2025, et dont le livre posthume Nobody's Girl: Memoir of Surviving Abuse and Fighting for Justice a été publié aux États-Unis le 21 octobre dernier. Dans ses mémoires, elle maintient son récit, accusant Andrew Windsor de viols à la demande de Jeffrey Epstein, alors qu'elle avait 17 ans. Des faits qu'il a toujours niés.Dans la tourmente depuis plusieurs mois, le frère de Charles III a été déchu de ses titres royaux en octobre pour ses liens avec le criminel américain. Son interpellation, le jour de ses 66 ans, est un coup de tonnerre pour la famille royale britannique. C'est la première fois, dans l'histoire récente de la monarchie, que l'un de ses membres est formellement arrêté. Dans un rare communiqué signé de son nom, le roi Charles III a affirmé ce jeudi que « la justice doit suivre son cours ».Aux États-Unis, point de départ de l'enquête, l'affaire Epstein continue également de provoquer des remous, et une nouvelle résidence alimente les soupçons : le ranch « Zorro », une vaste propriété détenue par le criminel sexuel américain au Nouveau-Mexique. Il s'agit de la seule propriété d'Epstein à ne pas avoir été perquisitionnée ; pourtant, elle apparaît à de multiples reprises dans les fichiers et les témoignages de victimes. Elle a été rachetée en 2023 par un élu texan républicain trumpiste. Lundi, la Chambre des représentants du Nouveau-Mexique a décidé la création d'une commission spéciale bipartite chargée d'enquêter sur le domaine et les crimes qui ont pu s'y dérouler.Parallèlement, au moment où Hillary Clinton accuse Donald Trump de chercher à « dissimuler » des éléments du dossier judiciaire de Jeffrey Epstein, le Daily Beast a publié de nouveaux éléments mettant en cause le président américain.Nos experts :- Adélaïde DE CLERMONT-TONNERRE - Journaliste et romancière- Anne-Elisabeth MOUTET - Éditorialiste - The Daily Telegraph - Audrey GOUTARD - Grand reporter - France Télévisions, spécialiste des faits de société- Nicole BACHARAN - Historienne et politologue, spécialiste des États-Unis

In this explosive update, Mark Morri, Crime Editor of the Daily Telegraph, joins the show to map out the latest - and perhaps most dangerous - escalation in Sydney’s gangland wars. We dive into the rise of the Coconut Cartel, a group of former associates who have turned their backs on the powerful Alameddine crime family, sparking a wave of shootings, firebombings, and kidnappings across Western Sydney. The most disturbing part? The "mules." Morri reveals a terrifying trend of "shopping lists" on the dark web, where teenagers are contracted to burn cars for $6,000 or commit drive-bys for a quick payout. With the shooting of NRL legend Matt Utai’s family and cases of mistaken identity on the rise, we ask: have these gangs become so stupid and cowardly that no one is safe? If you want to understand the shifting allegiances and the "whiteboard" of crime currently being tracked by investigators, this is a conversation you cannot miss.

C dans l'air du 9 février 2026 - Scandale Epstein : démissions en série...Alors que Ghislaine Maxwell, complice de Jeffrey Epstein actuellement en prison, a refusé ce lundi de répondre aux questions d'une commission de la Chambre des représentants américaine, les répliques de l'affaire Epstein continuent de se faire sentir en Europe, avec notamment en France la démission de Jack Lang de la présidence de l'Institut du monde arabe (IMA), l'institution culturelle et diplomatique qu'il pilotait depuis treize ans. L'ancien ministre socialiste de la Culture était, depuis une semaine, cerné par des appels à quitter la présidence de l'institution et sommé de s'expliquer dimanche auprès du ministre des Affaires étrangères sur ses liens avec Jeffrey Epstein. Les documents et mails rendus publics par la justice américaine ont révélé les petits et grands services qu'Epstein et Lang se sont rendus entre le milieu des années 2000 et 2019, ainsi que le partenariat financier conclu par sa fille, Caroline, avec le businessman américain. Jack Lang répète qu'il ne savait rien des crimes sexuels de l'homme d'affaires américain. Mais le Parquet national financier a ouvert une enquête préliminaire vendredi pour « blanchiment illégal aggravé » à propos de la création d'une société offshore par Jeffrey Epstein et Caroline Lang, basée dans les îles Vierges américaines, un paradis fiscal.Outre-Manche, le gouvernement travailliste est plongé dans une crise sans précédent depuis les dernières révélations concernant les liens entre Peter Mandelson et Jeffrey Epstein, et certains, jusque dans son propre camp, appellent au départ de Keir Starmer. Celui-ci avait nommé l'ex-ministre et commissaire européen à ce poste en décembre 2024, puis l'avait démis de ses fonctions en septembre 2025 après la publication de documents dans le dossier Epstein. Selon les derniers documents publiés par le ministère de la Justice des États-Unis, Peter Mandelson aurait transmis à Jeffrey Epstein des informations susceptibles d'influer sur les marchés, notamment lorsqu'il était ministre dans le gouvernement travailliste de Gordon Brown entre 2008 et 2010. La police britannique a ouvert une enquête et mené des perquisitions. À Downing Street, Morgan McSweeney, considéré comme le stratège du pouvoir travailliste, véritable bras droit et éminence grise de Keir Starmer, a démissionné, ainsi que son directeur de la communication, Tim Allan. Le Premier ministre britannique, Keir Starmer, a affirmé regretter d'avoir nommé Peter Mandelson. Il s'est excusé auprès des victimes de Jeffrey Epstein, mais a assuré qu'il ne connaissait pas l'ampleur de ses liens avec le pédocriminel et a écarté l'hypothèse d'un départ.Parallèlement, la police britannique a indiqué ce lundi « examiner » des informations selon lesquelles l'ex-prince Andrew pourrait avoir transmis au pédocriminel Jeffrey Epstein des informations confidentielles.Le séisme de l'affaire Epstein n'a pas fini de susciter des répliques. Plus de six ans après la mort du criminel sexuel, retrouvé pendu dans sa cellule d'une prison new-yorkaise, la récente publication de trois millions de pages supplémentaires a mis au jour l'incroyable réseau planétaire tissé par le pédophile. Des millions de documents, dont un grand nombre ont été caviardés par l'administration Trump, qui nourrissent autant l'information que les pires théories complotistes.Alors que révèlent réellement les documents du dossier Epstein ? Comment la complosphère s'en empare-t-elle ?Nos experts :- Bruno JEUDY - Directeur délégué et éditorialiste à La Tribune Dimanche - Anne-Elisabeth MOUTET - Journaliste franco-américaine, éditorialiste au Daily Telegraph - Marion SOLLETTY - Grand reporter à Politico- Audrey GOUTARD - Grand reporter à France Télévisions, spécialiste des faits de société

We spun the Wheel for our first ever Emoji Game on breakfast, then Ricki recapped the best auditions from last night's Australian Idol because the talent is unreal. Seattle Seahawks punter Michael Dickson showed Sydney some serious love at the Super Bowl, proving Aussies are everywhere. Daily Telegraph's Joe Hildebrand broke down the Sydney protest chaos and called Prime Minister Albo live on air (spoiler: voicemail). Kim K and Lewis Hamilton hard launched their relationship courtside at the Super Bowl with all the PDA, plus we revealed which Sydney suburbs have the most singles ahead of Valentine's Day—Woollahra for ladies, Lakemba has 304 blokes for every 100 women. Ricki revealed she was almost an Aussie Diamond before choosing singing, then a hairdresser expressed concern about her receding hairline on air (the audacity). There's a toilet scandal at the brand new Fish Market with only 12 female toilets causing chaos, and we played our first game of Sing! with Sarah Harris.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Daily Telegraph's Joe Hildebrand broke down yesterday's Sydney chaos when thousands of pro-Palestine protesters defied a court ban and marched anyway, claiming they were "just going for a walk." Israeli President Isaac Herzog was here for a state visit (not Netanyahu because Albo won't talk to him), snipers were on rooftops, and Joe explained Herzog just cuts ribbons while Netanyahu runs the show. Then Joe revealed he's devastated he didn't get invited to Albo's wedding despite thinking they're besties, so we made him call the Prime Minister live on air.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode of The Writing Life Podcast, novelist and essayist Matt Greene shares the process of writing his latest novel, The Definitions – a work of dystopian fiction which interrogates and plays with the relationship between language, memory and the self.   Matt is a novelist and essayist. His first novel, Ostrich, published in 2013, won a Betty Trask Award and was a Daily Telegraph book of the year. His memoir, Jew(ish) was published in 2020. His latest novel, The Definitions, was published in October 2025. He lives in London with his partner and two sons.   The Definitions is an elegant and haunting dystopian novel about a group of individuals gathered to relearn how to navigate the world after a mysterious illness strips them of their memories.    He sat down with NCW's Steph McKenna to discuss the genesis of the novel, which began as a philosophical experiment, and how working within the dystopian genre allowed him to explore how language shapes identity. They also touch on his approach to writing characters who lack memory or a sense of self, and how their gradual understanding of the world was conveyed through a playful, vivid use of simile and metaphor.

Joining Iain Dale on Cross Question are former Labour minister Caroline Flint, Advance UK leader Ben Habib, the Daily Telegraph columnist Ella Whelan, plus the POLITICO journalist Bethany Dawson.

Reports from across the ditch that a historic State of Origin rugby league game in New Zealand is all but a done deal. The Daily Telegraph's reporting that the New Zealand Government has paid $5 million to secure game two of the 2027 Origin series at Eden Park. The money will come from the $70 million Major Events Fund, designed to attract big events to New Zealand. Former Kiwis and Warriors coach Tony Kemp says this is a big deal for New Zealand - and the event will likely sell out. "It'll be sold out within minutes - unless you know somebody, you probably won't get a ticket. I don't think people understand just how big State of Origin is down here."

C dans l'air du 2 février 2026 - Affaire Epstein, le poison lentTrois millions de pages supplémentaires du dossier, dont plus de 2 000 vidéos et 180 000 images. C'est la dernière réplique du séisme Jeffrey Epstein, qui secoue les États-Unis et fragilise Donald Trump. Le nom du président des États-Unis apparaît plus de 3 000 fois dans la dernière salve de documents publiée vendredi dernier par le ministère de la Justice américaine, notamment dans une plainte pour viol sur une mineure de 13 ans.Le FBI a pris ses distances avec ces révélations, indiquant que tous les éléments du dossier Epstein doivent être rendus publics, qu'ils soient vérifiés ou non. Dans un communiqué repris par nos confrères de CNN, la Maison-Blanche a expliqué que « ce dossier peut contenir des images, des documents ou des vidéos falsifiés ou soumis de manière mensongère […] Certains documents contiennent des allégations mensongères et sensationnalistes contre le président Trump, soumises au FBI juste avant l'élection de 2020 ».Le numéro deux du ministère de la Justice, Todd Blanche, a également réaffirmé dimanche sur CNN n'avoir trouvé « aucun élément susceptible d'engager des poursuites », même si les documents renferment des contenus jugés « troublants ». Les nombreuses mentions du président Donald Trump relèveraient pour l'essentiel de « signalements anonymes » ou « invérifiables », insuffisants au regard des standards judiciaires. « Le monde entier peut regarder et voir si nous nous sommes trompés », a-t-il déclaré.Sur les plateaux de télévision et dans les rédactions, les journalistes tentent de démêler le vrai du faux dans la dernière salve de documents du dossier du prédateur sexuel, mort en prison en 2019. On y trouve des correspondances privées du financier par e-mail, des échanges par SMS, des documents judiciaires et des notes de police, qui dessinent une immense toile relationnelle entre puissants, à la croisée de la politique, de la diplomatie, du spectacle et de l'économie.Outre le président américain Donald Trump, sont cités Melania Trump, le ministre du Commerce américain Howard Lutnick, mais aussi Bill Gates, Richard Branson, Elon Musk, le prince déchu Andrew, frère du roi Charles III, Casey Wasserman, président du comité des Jeux olympiques de Los Angeles 2028, la famille Lang ou encore l'ancien président Bill Clinton.Des millions de documents ont été révélés, et l'administration Trump, sous le feu des critiques, est accusée de ralentir la divulgation de documents pourtant votée par le Congrès et de caviarder de nombreuses pièces.Ro Khanna, l'élu démocrate de Californie à l'initiative de la loi obligeant le ministère de la Justice à publier l'intégralité du dossier Epstein, a déclaré dimanche sur NBC News que la dernière livraison n'était toujours « pas suffisante ». « Si nous n'obtenons pas les dossiers restants, alors Thomas Massie [élu républicain du Kentucky] et moi-même sommes prêts à entamer une procédure de destitution ou d'outrage » contre la procureure générale Pam Bondi, a-t-il menacé. Par ailleurs, a-t-il insisté, les hommes dont les noms figurent dans les dossiers devraient a minima faire l'objet d'un « examen approfondi », à défaut de poursuites.Alors, que nous apprennent les nouveaux documents publiés du dossier Epstein ? Cette affaire peut-elle faire vaciller Donald Trump à dix mois des midterms ? Pourquoi le couple Clinton est-il accusé d'« entrave » au Congrès américain ?Nos experts :- James ANDRÉ - Grand reporter - France 24- Anne-Elisabeth MOUTET - Editorialiste - The Daily Telegraph - Anne TOULOUSE - Journaliste franco-américaine et autrice de « L'art de trumper »- Vincent JOLLY - Grand Reporter - Le Figaro Magazine - Sonia DRIDI (en duplex de Washington) - Correspondante aux Etats-Unis – LCI et France 24

Rob Crilly, former Chief US Correspondent for the Daily Telegraph and Daily Mail Online, now author of the “Washington Secrets” newsletter at the Washington Examiner, joins us again one year on to assess Donald Trump's first year in office. We talk about covering a president who sets the agenda via late-night tweets, how the White House manages access and mixes up the briefing room, and what it means for organisations such as the BBC to face a billion‑dollar lawsuit and accusations of “fake news”.We explore Trump's impact on legacy and public service media (from the BBC to NPR, PBS and Voice of America), the strategy of aggressive denial and attack, the use of leaks and loyalty tests inside the administration, and the growing business and political pressures on newsrooms from CBS to the Washington Post. We also examine Trump's personal enrichment and conflicts of interest, whether American democracy and its institutions are strong enough to withstand him, and why Rob believes last weekend's events in Minnesota could prove a pivotal moment in his presidency.Listen to all our episodes here: https://podfollow.com/beebwatch To support our journalism and receive a weekly blog sign up now for £1.99 per month www.patreon.com/BeebWatch/membership @beebwatch.bsky.social@BeebRogerInstagram: rogerboltonsbeebwatchLinkedIn: Roger Bolton's Beeb Watchemail: roger@rogerboltonsbeebwatch.com Hosted on Acast.
