Hear why an international approach to higher education research and teaching is vital to building a better future and solving global challenges. We speak to two academic experts to learn about effective institutional strategies to support internationalisation but also what key barriers prevent a more global academy. Lily Kong is president of Singapore Management University. She is the first women to lead an institute of higher education in Singapore. She took the helm in 2019 after three years as provost and prior to this she held senior management roles at the National University of Singapore. Manuel Barcia is the University of Bath's pro-vice-chancellor (global) after moving from the University of Leeds in May 2025, where he was dean for Global Engagement and Chair of Global History in the School of History.

You're being lied to—by governments, by the media, and maybe even by your own sense of security. You think you understand the new Cold War brewing between the U.S. and China, but what you're missing is the real master plan for rewriting global trade, the secret moves at the IMF and World Bank, and how every headline is part of a narrative war with trillion-dollar stakes. If you think this is just about tariffs, you are not paying attention. If you think America still controls the world order, you're about to get a wake-up call. The rhetoric, the chaos, the PR battles—it's all part of a high-stakes game that most people will never see coming until it's too late. Today, we're breaking down the strategies, the hidden motivations, and the economic weapons being deployed in real time. So buckle up—because joining me is my co-host Drew, and we're about to map out the future of the global economy, the battle lines between the U.S. and China, and most importantly, what it all means for you.

Tucker Carlson has been involved in several significant events and made notable statements recently. On April 11, 2025, Carlson delivered a heartfelt speech at The Heritage Foundation's 2025 Annual Leadership Conference. In this speech, he shared personal stories, reflected on his spiritual and political insights, and discussed his experience of being fired two years ago after a previous speech at the same foundation. He expressed his gratitude to Heritage for hiring him early in his career and acknowledged the emotional impact of receiving the John von Kannon award, as he had a close relationship with John von Kannon during his time at Heritage in the early 1990s. Carlson also touched on his evolving views on spiritual warfare and the broader implications of his recent public statements[1].In addition to this speech, Carlson has been engaged in other media activities. He recently discussed the 9/11 attacks in a video, where he raised questions about the official narrative and suggested that some of the hijackers were on the CIA payroll. He also called for a new presidential commission to investigate the events surrounding 9/11, citing evidence and testimonies from various sources, including firefighters, architects, engineers, and families of the victims[3].On the international front, Carlson has been in the spotlight for his interactions with Russian officials. Although the most recent details are not from the last 24 hours, it is worth noting that he has been to Moscow multiple times in 2024, including an interview with Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, where he highlighted the prospect of a direct clash between Russia and the United States and warned of the closeness to nuclear war. This visit was seen as part of a broader context where Carlson's presence is used to amplify Russian nuclear threats, though these threats are increasingly viewed as empty by Western leaders[5].There have been no new legal or professional developments involving Carlson reported recently. However, his comments and actions continue to spark significant discussions and debates about his influence on media and politics. His ability to shape public discourse and his interactions with other public figures, such as his interviews with international leaders like Vladimir Putin, remain topics of considerable interest and scrutiny.Thank you for listening to the Tucker Carlson news tracker podcast. Please subscribe for more updates on his activities and their wider implications.

In this episode, I talk with Dr. Ulises Mejias, Professor of Communication Studies and Director of the Institute for Global Engagement at the State University of New York. WE explore the concept of data colonialism, examining how modern technology companies extract and exploit personal data in ways that parallel historical colonialism. The conversation delves into how these practices impact education, immigration policy, and what resistance might look like in our digital age. You can WATCH the conversation on YouTube Ulises Mejias is Professor of Communication Studies and Director of the Institute for Global Engagement at the State University of New York. Originally from Mexico City, his scholarship examines the relationship between technology, power, and colonialism. He is co-author with Nick Couldry of "The Cost of Connection: How Data Colonizes Human Life and Appropriates It for Capitalism" and "Data Grab: The New Frontier of Digital Colonialism." His work focuses on decolonizing approaches to technology and data, particularly exploring how the extraction of personal data represents a new form of colonialism. This Episode is Sponsored By Scared Tension: Embracing Dissonance and Dialogue in the Old Testament As people of faith, the words of the Bible are sacred. But sometimes, if we're being honest, the Bible —especially the Old Testament — is more confusing than clear. The contradictions and complexities in the texts leave us shaking our head with more questions than answers. In Sacred Tension: Embracing Dissonance and Dialogue in the Old Testament, popular biblical scholar Bill Brown suggests that the diversity in the Bible is in fact one of its greatest strengths, pointing us toward “more” Bible, not less. He invites us to read the Old Testament as a wide-ranging dialogue that is in conversation both with itself and with us, fostering further discussion and mutual discernment. With passion and expert insight, Brown takes you on an enlivening journey through the Bible, exploring its dissonance and complexity anew. Let the conversations begin!
