The death and destruction in Ukraine has only intensified in the two months since Donald Trump unilaterally announced peace talks, and the one month since Ukraine offered a 30-day ceasefire.With diplomacy having delivered nothing so far Sitrep explains how the war has played out in that time, who has the battlefield momentum, and the potential paths ahead.Equipment is key to Ukraine's chances but a leaked German assessment says high-end tanks, like the Leopard 2, sometimes cause problems rather than providing capability.Former British tank-commander Hamish de Bretton-Gordon explains why, what lessons the UK should take from this, and which tank he'd want to be in if he were in Ukraine.

Former British Prime Minister Boris Johnson offers his thoughts on the UK's latest financial policy as part of an interview with Mike Hosking. Catch the full-length interview next week on the Mike Hosking Breakfast. Boris Johnson is condemning the British Labour Government's moves to hike taxes on the wealthy. High earners, wealthy foreigners, and businesses are facing $86 billion of extra taxes to fund public services like the National Health Service. Speaking exclusively to Mike Hosking, Johnson —the British PM from 2019 to 2022— says Sir Keir Starmer's government should be looking to cut the public service instead. He says putting up taxes, without reforming the public service, at a time when the UK state has already expanded massively, is "insane". See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

"I really thought we were gonna get caught in an avalanche." Steve Brown is an author and former British Army Pathfinder. https://www.amazon.co.uk/stores/author/B091ZKNBGQ Topics in this conversation: Preparation and awareness can prevent dangerous situations. Life-threatening situations can be unpredictable and terrifying. Military training prepares individuals for various dangerous scenarios. Writing an autobiography can be a nerve-wracking yet rewarding experience. Martial arts training fosters mental resilience and self-discipline. Self-defense training is crucial for personal safety and empowerment. Community support in martial arts enhances the learning experience. Different martial arts have unique benefits and applications. Physical fitness contributes to overall mental health and well-being. The camaraderie in martial arts is often more supportive than in other sports. Engaging in martial arts can reduce the likelihood of violence in real-life situations. Military life often involves physical confrontations, especially in social settings. Dover's nightlife was notorious for its military presence and associated fights. The military culture can be highly alpha-dominated, leading to intense competition. Violence is sometimes used as a quick method to teach discipline in the military. Integration among different military units can be challenging but necessary for operations. Social constructs play a significant role in shaping modern societal issues. The conversation around gender equality in the military is evolving, with more women entering elite units. Maintaining high fitness standards is crucial in military training and operations. Free speech is essential for discussing sensitive topics without fear of backlash. The perception of racism and discrimination is complex and often misunderstood. Lowering standards in military units compromises their effectiveness. Gender should not dictate entry standards in combat roles. Physical capability is often a determining factor in military effectiveness. Mental health issues are prevalent among military personnel. Asking for help with mental health can be a difficult step. Self-defence knowledge is essential for civilians. It's important to recognize the strengths of individuals regardless of gender. The military culture can sometimes normalize extreme behaviours. Survival skills are crucial but often inadequately taught.

Former British nurse, Lucy Letby, is serving 15 life sentences for the murder and attempted murder of 14 babies. All of the infants were under her care when they were killed between 2015 and 2016. This summer her case was thrown out of the Court of Appeal. And yet doubts remain amongst a cohort of people who believe she may have been wrongly convicted on circumstantial evidence. Bizarre interventions on her behalf include that of the former Brexit Secretary, David Davis, on Good Morning Britain last week. Families of the victims say they are dismayed certain elements of the 10 month trial have been taken out of context and fuelled with misinformation. So why exactly do Letby's supporters believe she should walk free?

Pretty much a ramble. It's my last podcast from the farm. It's been a difficult 6 months, but like all Americans, we fight through the difficult times. A couple of corrections: I called the author of the "Trump Dossier" Michael Steele. That's the sellout former head of the RNC, now prominently on CNN and MSNBC. The quintessential "never Trumper". It was Christopher Steele. A Former British spy and on the payroll of the Clinton campaign in 2016. Which is highly illegal. Later I mention Article 1 of the Constitution is the Legislative Branch, but move to the Executive Branch, without noting that is Article 2. I address it a few minutes later, but listening to it, might be confusing. I recommend listening at 1.5 or 2 times the playback speed. Just saying. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/john-adams85/message

In addition to Friday being International Women's Day, March is Women's History Month, and that seemed the perfect time to have this series I've been concocting in my brain for a while called Women in Power. I am so proud and happy to share my conversations with you! Also, at the end of each episode in this series, I'll be sharing three books by three female writers whose collections I love, so stick around after the interview for that. Our first guest in the Women in Power series is a legend in the magazine space: Alexandra Shulman, who was editor-in-chief of British Vogue for 25 years. A full quarter century! She is the longest-serving editor in the position and took the helm in 1992; she has become one of the U.K.'s most respected voices in fashion since. Her 25 years at the top of the masthead included many iconic issues of the magazine, like the December 1999 “Millennium Issue,” which became the highest-selling issue of Vogue. You'll hear me speak about this with her, but I always respected Alexandra's stance that the magazine never publish pieces on diets or cosmetic surgery, as she didn't want to tell women a specific way they should look. While still editor in-chief, she published a novel, Can We Still Be Friends?, in 2012, and in 2016, highlighting British Vogue's centenary year, she published the book Inside Vogue: My Diary of Vogue's 100th Year. In January 2017, nearing the quarter-century mark in her role, it was announced that she would leave her role that June, and she was succeeded as editor-in-chief by Edward Enninful. Since then, she has published a memoir I loved called Clothes And Other Things That Matter, which came out in 2021. Today we talk about what she's up to these days (and it's a lot!), what she's reading, and, of course, about her time at Vogue. By Alexandra Shulman: Can We Still Be Friends? Inside Vogue: My Diary of Vogue's 100th Year Clothes…And Other Things That Matter Alexandra's recommendations: Orbital by Samantha Harvey Slow Horses by Mick Herron My “Leave You with Three” picks today: Tiny Beautiful Things by Cheryl Strayed Big Magic by Elizabeth Gilbert Untamed by Glennon Doyle + Together Rising
Although she didn't feel like she could be a "secondhand rose" as the editor of British Vogue, Alexandra Shulman has now returned to shopping for vintage clothes as she did in her 20s. The fashion icon talks to Kathryn Ryan about the pleasure of dressing well, the " incredible individual style" of today's young people and the pre-loved clothing sale she recently hosted in London.

YOU can boost your happiness and transform the lives of people in one African village with a cash gift by going to givedirectly.org/happiness Giving money to others makes you happier than spending the same cash on yourself. That's been proved by science. But new research also shows that giving people in need cold hard cash is an amazing way to help them improve their lives. We explore why trusting people to help themselves is a cheaper and more effective way to solve poverty - and hear about Kibobo in Rwanda, where any money you donate will have a huge impact.

He was shocked how effective no-strings-attached cash turned out to be, and now promotes "giving directly". He was also surprised how good giving away even small amounts of money made him feel.

Nearly two years ago Americans hastily left Afghanistan and the Taliban took over. Any hope that this Taliban might be a more moderate version has all but vanished. The rights of women and girls are continuously under assault. Secondary schools are still closed for girls and the latest edict closed beauty salons, not just a place of work but one of the last all-women spaces for socializing. Gordon Brown was Britain's Prime Minister during the war in Afghanistan. He is now making a bold declaration that the denial of female education and any rights for women in Afghanistan should be declared a crime against humanity.
