Former BBC football presenter Gary Lineker is once again at the centre of controversy — but is he being celebrated for challenging power, or exposed for double standards? Journalist Jonathan Sacerdoti joins me to unpack what's really happening behind the scenes at the BBC. We discuss: • Why Gary Lineker's departure puts the BBC in an awkward position • Claims of crass, ugly behaviour (Peter Bleksley's damning article) • The hypocrisy of BBC alumni like Emily Maitlis, Owen Jones & The News Agents • The quiet integrity of comedians like Jimmy Carr • The strange silence on anti-Semitism and grooming gang scandals • The rise of ideologically driven media figures who once relied on BBC credibility • We also explore the broader issue: Can journalists still have private opinions without backlash?

Today's guest is a titan of political journalism - someone whose calm, incisive reporting helped us make sense of the madness during one of the most dramatic chapters in American political history. It's Jon Sopel, the former BBC North America Editor, who spent eight rollercoaster years covering the United States, through Trump, through Covid, through history being made in real time.He's interviewed presidents, grilled press secretaries, and yes - even been shouted at by Donald Trump himself.Now, Jon's back on home turf - though the country he's returned to isn't quite the Britain he left behind. In his brilliant new book Strangeland, Jon turns his razor-sharp eye on post-Brexit Britain, peeling back the layers of a nation that feels unfamiliar even to someone who grew up here. It's part political memoir, part social commentary, and entirely unputdownable.These days, you'll know Jon as one-third of the brilliant trio behind The News Agents, one of the UK's most popular news podcasts, which he co-hosts with Emily Maitlis and Lewis Goodall. It's completely redefined how many people consume the news - and it's an absolute must-listen if you don't already.In this episode, we dive into the shifting political landscapes of both the UK and the US and of course, we set off on Jon's Travel Diaries - from his long stint in Washington D.C. to the sun-drenched Riviera, the energy of Rio, and the beauty of Sydney.Holly's Destination Recap: Puente Romano Hotel, Marbella, Spain Jon's Destination Recap:New York City, USA French Riviera, FranceSt Paul de Vence, France La Colombe D'or, St Paul de Vence, France Paris, FranceMusée Marmottan Monet, Paris, FranceJardin du Ranelagh, Paris, France Andia (formerly Restaurant La Gare), Paris, France Afghanistan Rio de Janeiro, Brazil Tokyo, Japan Sydney, Australia Noosa, Queensland, Australia Blackberry Farm, Smoky Mountains, Tennessee, USAMaine, USANantucket, Massachusetts, USAShelter Island, New York, USACosta RicaThe Galapagos RwandaStrangeland: Is This Britain's New Normal?

This episode begins with a tribute to Virginia Giuffre who sadly died this week. Marina and Jemma touch on what she suffered at the hands of various abusers and talk about how she took on some of the world's most powerful men. The Trawl ladies consider how much bravery that would have required and let Emily Maitlis have the final word. And then to America we go for this week's Trump digest: a digest which could cause indigestion. The main theme of this ep is 'how stupid is he?' Falling asleep at the Pope's funeral with his blue suit and tie on, sat there with his mouth open like a cod fish, he hardly comes across as someone with gravitas. Meanwhile, in terms of press attention, the poor old Pope was almost overshadowed by the President's meeting with Zelensky where it seemed to finally dawn on Trump that Putin wasn't taking any notice of his tweets. Still, after the horrific bomb attack in Kyiv he obviously felt it was worth another go so told him to STOP, in caps, for extra oomph. Sure, that ought to do it, Donny. Marina and Jemma also discuss the ongoing fallout of putting tariffs on Chinese goods and what Amazon has (or rather hasn't post a call from The White House) been up to.Not only does he not understand tariffs, he also doesn't seem to understand photoshop. It's been a confusing week for Trump but under rated tweets and clips provide some wonderful Trump relief (back to indigestion again...) Enjoy!

They talk about his love of poetry, his broadcasting career, what brings him joy - and - his new novel, 'Murder On Line One'.Jeremy also treats us to some of his poetry, which he found in a book from many years ago - and - tells a hilarious story about Emily Maitlis. (Please note there's some fruity language in this one!) And remember, you can watch this - and all of our episodes, and our bonus Show n Tell episodes on our YouTube channel! Hosted on Acast.

I am so excited to say that my guest on the GWA Podcast is the acclaimed painter, Rose Wylie! Born in 1934, as the youngest of seven children to Victorian parents, Wylie spent her early childhood in India before coming to England aged 5. This was in 1939, in the midst of a bomb-filled Second World War and increasingly fractured world. She went on to study figurative painting, at Folkestone and Dover College of Art in Kent from 1952–56, at a time when tutors would say to her ‘It's no good bothering with you, you're a girl, you'll get married, have children and that'll be that.' … It was then to a teacher training programme at Goldsmiths before putting art aside to raise three children. This was, until 1979 when Wylie returned to the studio enrolling at the Royal College of Art, in her early 40s. Her first solo exhibition came a few years later in 1985, but despite Wylie working in her cottage-slash-studio in Kent for the last 50+ years – where we are very excitingly recording today – it was not until the last 10–15 years that her work has been given the attention and acclaim it has always deserved. Playful and fractured, featuring text overlaid with image, witnessing a Rose Wylie painting in person is to see the world in a different way. Wylie takes recognisable elements from pop culture, history, mythology, sport, even the Bible – from flowers, battenberg cakes, sportstars, queens, to the likes of Nicole Kidman and Emily Maitlis – and shows us them anew, in her paintings that are void of perspective to the point that there is no indication of where the work starts or ends. Her paintings are sometimes full of movement – like a football being kicked, almost balletically, with players, clad in yellow, darting across the dotty canvas that surrounds its viewer. At other times they remind me of a film playing out – like the blood-clad figure lying on the floor in Kill Bill – or even a script with stage directions featuring phrases like “getting dark” or “yellow” … Wylie's paintings are full of decisions, ideas, and the more I look at them, the more her world opens up… Now 90 years old, after a celebrity-filled birthday bash, Wylie is back better than ever for her exhibition at David Zwirner London “When Found becomes Given”, opening on April 3rd, and I couldn't be more delighted to be speaking to her at her Kent-based studio today.

The Prince Andrew interview on BBC Newsnight came about after Buckingham Palace sought to clear his name amid growing scrutiny over his ties to Jeffrey Epstein. The idea was first pitched when Prince Andrew's then-private secretary, Amanda Thirsk, was in discussions with BBC journalist Emily Maitlis and Newsnight editor Esme Wren about a possible interview. Initially, the palace wanted to use the interview to refute allegations that Prince Andrew had sexually abused Virginia Giuffre, who alleged she was trafficked to him by Epstein when she was 17. Thirsk and Andrew saw it as an opportunity to publicly address the controversy, believing it would help him regain credibility. The interview was arranged through direct negotiations between Thirsk and the Newsnight team, with Prince Andrew ultimately agreeing to the sit-down, which was filmed inside Buckingham Palace in November 2019.However, the interview turned into a public relations disaster for Prince Andrew. Instead of clearing his name, his lack of remorse, bizarre explanations, and contradictions only fueled greater criticism. He infamously claimed he could not have been with Giuffre on the alleged night because he was at Pizza Express in Woking and insisted he could not sweat due to a medical condition. The broadcast led to intense backlash, forcing Andrew to step back from royal duties days later. BBC journalist Sam McAlister, who negotiated the interview, later revealed that Andrew and his team failed to anticipate how damning his answers would sound, leading to what is now regarded as one of the most disastrous royal interviews in history.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Donald Trump's work as the 47th president of the United States has just begun, and it's fair to say that he's hit the ground running. He has already signed a slew of executive orders on issues including the definition of a woman, the southern border crisis and aid to foreign countries. He has also pardoned around 1,500 people convicted in relation to the January 6th Capitol riots. His supporters are walking on air, as the Democrats can only lick their wounds. For a prognosis of what Trump's first days, weeks and months of his second term will bring, Piers Morgan is joined on Uncensored by host of 'The Rubin Report' Dave Rubin, co-host of 'Verdict with Ted Cruz' Ben Ferguson, TikTok Democrat Influencer Harry Sisson, philosopher and former independent presidential candidate Dr Cornel West and journalist Emily Maitlis.

The upcoming Amazon Prime drama A Very Royal Scandal, set to release on September 19, 2024, reignites controversy surrounding Prince Andrew's 2019 BBC interview about his ties to Jeffrey Epstein and Virginia Giuffre. The series dramatizes key moments leading up to the interview, which was a pivotal moment in Andrew's public downfall. Michael Sheen portrays Prince Andrew, while Ruth Wilson plays journalist Emily Maitlis, who conducted the infamous interview.The drama presents a fresh twist by depicting Andrew, in private moments, struggling to recall details of his relationships, including one scene where he is heard questioning how he could remember "all the women he's bedded." This directly contrasts his public denials, especially regarding Giuffre's claims that they had sexual relations when she was 17. The series also portrays scenes implying Andrew's involvement in Epstein's world, adding further scrutiny to his denials.This renewed focus on Prince Andrew's scandal coincides with ongoing rumors about his future within the royal family, particularly his potential forced move from Royal Lodge. Despite settling Giuffre's lawsuit in 2022 for around £12 million, Andrew's standing remains precarious, and this drama is likely to intensify public and media interest in the case.(commercial at 9:46) to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Fresh twist in Andrew scandal as new Amazon drama trashes prince's claim he didn't sleep with Virginia Giuffre | The Sun

Biden has stood down! But, before the Trawl ladies get to that, they want to discuss the Crowdstrike bug which hit Microsoft hard. People in offices were crossing their fingers Teams would go down too so they could leave early, some poor souls had their flights cancelled or experienced other huge inconveniences, others didn't even notice.Then, it's off to the States where it's all happening. Or, not happening in Biden's case. President Biden will not be running against Trump and for the good of the party is endorsing Kamala Harris. There's plenty of reaction to trawl plus the embarrassment of Farage and Truss trying to be relevant and pretending they're part of the inner circle. Hilarious clips prove otherwise. Liz who? Emily Maitlis gives an interviewing masterclass and you won't believe what someone who owns 19 air rifles does for a living. Stuffed with clips galore this is a digest which will make you concur with one of the Under Rated Tweets by Labour MP Chris Bryant who said There are many flaws in the UK constitution but the fact that we can change the party of government in the twinkling of an eye with minimal fuss and without preposterous claims of a stolen election is a pearl of great price.

Gillian Anderson talks about playing Margaret Thatcher, Eleanor Roosevelt, and Emily Maitlis, the BBC anchor who did the exclusive 2019 interview with Prince Andrew. President Biden signed an executive order temporarily barring undocumented immigrants from seeking asylum. It's what Trump tried to do in his first term. Amid a largely self-censored media landscape, Israel's leading left-wing publication Haaretz critiques the country's government and provides an unflinching view on the war in Gaza. One in five employers is less likely to hire recent college grads who took part in pro-Palestinian protests, a new survey shows. But other employers seem to support protest involvement.

Gillian Anderson, the illustrious actor renowned for her iconic role as Dana Scully in "The X-Files," joins host Charlotte Alter this week on the show. Gillian reflects on the profound impact of portraying such a pivotal character so early in her career and unpacks the "Dana Scully effect," which empowered a generation of women to pursue careers in science and technology. She shares scenes from her bicultural upbringing, moving between the UK and America, and her transformative punk phase during her college years in Chicago. Anderson also offers insight into British politics and the Royal Family, drawn from her portrayals of Margaret Thatcher in "The Crown" and Emily Maitlis in the new Netflix film "Scoop." The discussion turns to Anderson's unexpected journey into activism around sexual wellness and women's health, spurred in part by her role as Jean Milburn in "Sex Education.” Tune in for a deep dive into the life and career of a truly remarkable artist. • You can watch "Scoop" on Netflix starting 4/5.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
If there's one thing that's true about Gillian Anderson, it's that she isn't afraid of a challenge. And that's exactly what she's doing in her new film, tackling the role of journalist Emily Maitlis in Netflix's ‘Scoop' (April 5), which documents the team behind the bombshell 2019 BBC interview with Prince Andrew over his involvement with Jeffrey Epstein. For Anderson, who won an Emmy for playing Margaret Thatcher in ‘The Crown,' she didn't see it as another project about the royal family. “It wasn't until afterwards when people started asking me that and I was like, ‘Really? Well, I didn't even think about it.'” [laughs] What stood out to Anderson was the various portrayals of women involved in making the interview happen. “They are all incredibly powerful forces in their own rights, but also completely unique and different characters.” Anderson, whose legions of fans date back to her days on ‘The X-Files,' is using that popularity to talk about women's sexual health with her new energy drink line G Spot, targeted for women, but made for everybody.

131 years - that's how long it will take to close the gender gap, a sobering fact from the World Economic Forum, nobody on the earth right now will be alive to see. Our first guest has made it her mission to move the needle toward gender equity. She's an actress, filmmaker, and an athlete, who also happens to be the First Partner of California, a title she coined after shunning the traditional First Lady term. She's Jennifer Siebel Newsom, wife of one of the Democrats' loudest voices right now, Governor Gavin Newsom. Before heading to the governor's mansion Newsom lived through some very deep personal trauma - which helped shape her mission for gender equality today. In our Letter From London this week, what the world makes of the US political circus that never fails to deliver. Case in point: Donald Trump's stunning win in Iowa this week, in spite of - or perhaps because of - the 91 criminal charges and other legal fires he's fighting. Joining Christiane this week to discuss are two journalists who are no stranger to suspending disbelief - Emily Maitlis and Mark Landler. Also this hour, bullet wounds, burns, amputations and orphaned children. These are the realities of war that doctors in Gaza are dealing with, after three months of Israeli bombardment. Doctor Deborah Harrington spent two weeks over Christmas volunteering at Gaza's al-Aqsa Hospital, right in the heart of the Gaza Strip. What happens to the people of Gaza and Israel the 'day after', if and when the fighting ever ends? Christiane puts that to Mark Regev - Senior Advisor to the Israeli Prime Minister - following Benjamin Netanyahu's apparent rejection of a post-war Palestinian state. From the Amanpour Archive this week, how the first Gulf War - and the destruction it caused - echoes Israel's bombardment of Gaza today. And in Ask Amanpour, one listener asks how Christiane can cope with witnessing such cruelty in the stories she reports on?
