In this episode of the Do One Better Podcast, Alberto Lidji speaks with David Mozersky, President and Co-Founder of Energy Peace Partners, about the connection between renewable energy and peacebuilding in fragile and conflict-affected countries. David explains how some of the least electrified countries in the world are also among the most affected by conflict and climate vulnerability. From South Sudan and the Democratic Republic of Congo to Somalia and Chad, Energy Peace Partners works to bring renewable energy solutions to communities where electricity access can transform lives, strengthen local economies, improve health and education, enhance security, and support peace. The conversation explores how distributed renewable energy, such as solar mini grids and public lighting, can create shared benefits for communities, open up new economic opportunities, and serve as a practical peacebuilding tool. David also introduces the Peace Renewable Energy Credit, known as a PREC, an innovative financing mechanism that helps channel sustainability funding into renewable energy projects in fragile settings. David discusses the role of major corporate buyers, including Microsoft and Google, and looks at the potential of the new PREC Aggregation Facility, an $11 million initiative designed to unlock far larger investment in renewable energy projects across fragile states in Africa. He also considers the role of philanthropy, the challenges of building a new field at the intersection of peace and renewable energy, and the importance of collaboration among funders, developers, policymakers, researchers, and peacebuilding organizations. This is a thoughtful and timely conversation about how clean energy can do more than reduce emissions. It can improve lives, create new forms of cooperation, and contribute to peace and stability in some of the world's most challenging contexts.

In this special on-location episode of the Anglotopia Podcast, recorded at the Chicago History Museum on the occasion of His Majesty the King's official birthday, Jonathan Thomas sits down with Richard Hyde — His Majesty's Consul General in Chicago and the senior British diplomatic representative across 14 states in the American Midwest. Speaking just before the British Consulate's King's Birthday Garden Party, Richard explains what a Consul General actually does, why Britain doesn't have a National Day, how he approaches representing modern Britain to the heartland of America, and what King Charles's address to a joint session of Congress meant for the Special Relationship. The conversation also uncovers a remarkable piece of Anglo-Chicago history: after the Great Chicago Fire of 1871, Queen Victoria and 8,000 British donors — including Disraeli, Tennyson, and John Stuart Mill — sent books to Chicago, directly founding the Chicago Public Library. Plus: the Beatles, Frank Lloyd Wright's Welsh roots, Abraham Lincoln's North Wales ancestry, and why Chicago is Richard's favorite city in the world. Note: We had originally planned to do a 100th Q&A for our 100th episode, but a much bigger opportunity arose last week, which we thought was more fitting. We'll do the Q&A soon! Links British Consulate General Chicago Website UK In Chicago on Instagram British Consulate General Chicago on X/Twitter British Embassy Washington DC UK Government in the USA Chicago History Museum Chicago Public Library Foundation Hawksmoor Chicago Celtic Crossings Chicago Chicago Shakespeare Theater America 250 Friends of Anglotopia Club Takeaways The United Kingdom is one of the only countries in the world without an official National Day — which is why British consulates abroad use the King's official birthday in June as their annual celebration, conveniently timed to coincide with Trooping the Colour. Richard Hyde covers 14 American states as Consul General — roughly 25% of the entire United States — including 105 members of the House of Representatives and 28 senators, making the Midwest a critical region for understanding where American politics is heading. After the Great Chicago Fire of 1871, Queen Victoria personally led a donation drive that saw 8,000 British donors — including Benjamin Disraeli, Alfred Lord Tennyson, and John Stuart Mill — send books to Chicago, directly founding the Chicago Public Library. Victoria's personally signed copy of a biography of Prince Albert is still in the library's special collection. King Charles's address to a joint session of Congress during his America 250 visit was, in Richard's assessment, a masterclass in diplomatic communication — speaking to shared values rather than political divisions and reminding both nations of the deep historical thread connecting Magna Carta to the US Constitution. Frank Lloyd Wright's family were Welsh; Abraham Lincoln's great-great-grandfather came from a small village in North Wales just 40 miles from Richard's hometown of Liverpool; and Anish Kapoor — who designed Chicago's Cloud Gate Bean — is British. Britain's cultural fingerprints are everywhere in Chicago. The British Consulate deliberately chose the Chicago History Museum and the Chicago Public Library Foundation as partners for this year's King's Birthday event to honor the Victorian book donation story — and encouraged guests to donate to the Foundation in the spirit of Queen Victoria's original gesture. Richard argues that British culture in America is simultaneously everywhere and invisible — so deeply embedded in American music, film, language, and history that most Americans don't register it as foreign. The Beatles are the perfect example: four working-class kids from Liverpool whose music plays in every country in the world, including a Chinese restaurant in Somalia in 1998. The Special Relationship, Richard says, is ultimately about 80% agreement — both countries share fundamental values on democracy, freedom, and human rights, and the disagreements, while loud, are at the margins. King Charles's Congress speech focused on that 80%. Richard's most unexpected discovery in Chicago: Midwesterners are the most authentically friendly people he's encountered in 10 overseas postings. They follow up. They text you. They actually become your friends — not just professional contacts. Richard's message to young Americans: spend time abroad. Not a two-week vacation, but a semester, a few months, living in someone else's culture. It will change how you see America — and make you appreciate it far more deeply. Soundbites "I like to joke that Chicago is one of America's two great cities with proper downtowns. Everywhere else is sprawl. But the difference is — in Chicago, the people are nice, the streets are clean, and the food's better." — Richard on why Chicago stands apart. "We're celebrating America 250. We're celebrating the fact that this is the greatest startup in history. We argued a little bit and there was some spilled tea — and despite all of that, 250 years on, no two countries do more together in the world." — Richard on Britain's approach to America 250. "Queen Victoria and 8,000 British donors sent books to Chicago after the Great Fire of 1871 — and that donation directly led to the founding of the Chicago Public Library. Victoria's signed copy is still there. It's a gesture from 1871 that still resonates now." — Richard on the Anglo-Chicago library story. "The King rises above the moment. He was able to come at a challenging time in our relationship and remind Americans — and remind Brits — that there are fundamentally more important things than the moment we're in. And that is our shared values." — Richard on King Charles's Congress speech. "I've been all around the world. I've never really been a great theater-goer. But Ed Hall at the Chicago Shakespeare Theatre has kind of infected me. I've become addicted to theater." — Richard on an unexpected Chicago conversion. "The flag in the United States is the symbol of their liberty. Our flag was created from existing countries we already had. So Scotland, England, Wales, Northern Ireland — the Union flag is basically a combination of four different crosses. We didn't have to fight for it." — Richard on why Brits and Americans relate to their flags so differently. "I've lived here almost two years. Of all the places I've lived, this is the easiest place in the world to actually build a network of friends. You can stand in a bar and someone starts talking to you about the Cubs and fundamentally how terrible everyone is at the moment — and they actually follow up." — Richard on Midwestern friendliness. "The longer I stay away and the more I've represented my country overseas, the prouder I am of that country. Warts and all. I'm proud of the history — even the complicated history. You have to understand it, not erase it." — Richard on representing Britain from a distance. "I have to say — I saw Hamilton recently and the best character in Hamilton is the King. Everyone agrees. He has the best songs." — Richard on George III stealing the show. "If you ever get a chance to travel — and I say this to a lot of young Americans — don't mean a two-week vacation. Go spend a semester abroad. Go spend a few months in somebody else's culture. And you'll understand A, that the country you love isn't perfect. But the longer you think about it, the more you'll appreciate what your country does." — Richard's message to young Americans.

Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News. ---- Tai-Ex opening  The Tai-Ex opened up (上漲開盤) 95-points this morning from yesterday's close (收盤), at 45,972 on turnover (成交金額) of $15-billion N-T. ---- 90 percent of suspended social media accounts restored: MODA The Ministry of Digital Affairs says Meta has promised to restore (恢復) thousands of social media accounts wrongly suspended (被停用 / 被停權) over the weekend, with nearly 90 percent recovered as of Wednesday afternoon. Between 3,000 and 4,000 accounts were suspended late Sunday after a technical issue caused Meta's system to mistakenly flag users as being under 13 years old, part of a new age-verification mechanism (年齡驗證機制) the company rolled out in May. About 200 accounts belonged to media organizations and public figures, with thousands more belonging to individual users. The ministry instructed Meta to restore a list of nearly 100 accounts, including those of major broadcasters and prominent political figures, by 6 p.m. Wednesday. Meta also said its existing appeal mechanisms remain available for users whose accounts are still suspended. ---- Banqiao man arrested after robbing bank with scissors A 50-year-old man was arrested (被逮捕) Wednesday morning after robbing a bank in New Taipei's Banqiao District with a pair of scissors. Police said the robbery at the Taishin International Bank branch was reported at around 10:15 a.m. Officers arrived four minutes later to find the suspect (嫌犯), surnamed Wang, seated in the customer area counting cash. He was arrested on the spot. Wang is being questioned on suspicion of robbery. Investigators are working to determine whether any accomplices (共犯) were involved and whether the crime was premeditated. ---- US and Iran digitally sign MOU to end war as Trump warns he'll resume bombing if talks fail US President Donald Trump and Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian have digitally signed a fourteen-point memorandum of understanding (諒解備忘錄) to end the war between the United States, Israel and Iran. The deal calls for an immediate ceasefire (停火), the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz and the lifting of sanctions (制裁) on Iranian oil exports, but President Trump has warned the agreement is not final and the US would resume military action if further talks fail. A further round of negotiations is due to begin in Switzerland on Friday, with those talks expected to conclude within sixty days. Kate Fisher has more from Washington. That was Kate Fisher in Washington. ---- UN Warns of Acute Hunger Across Global Hotspots The United Nations' food agencies warn that acute hunger (嚴重飢餓) is set to worsen across 13 global hot spots in the coming months, calling for urgent action. Conflict, funding shortages, and climate shocks are pushing millions closer to famine (飢荒). A new joint report from the Food and Agriculture Organization and the World Food Program highlights that conditions are expected to deteriorate between June and November 2026. Around 266 million people already face high levels of acute food insecurity (糧食不安全). The report says "Sudan, South Sudan, Yemen, and Palestine" remain the countries of greatest concern. Nigeria and Somalia have been newly added to that category as conditions worsen and famine risks rise. ---- UK Stonehenge "Prototype" Discovered Archaeologists (考古學家) say they have discovered a structure near Stonehenge that may have served as a “prototype” (原型) for the monument. A team from Wessex Archaeology says the structure, found near Bulford, predates Stonehenge by around 500 years. It consisted of two wooden poles aligned with the sun during solstices (至日). The site also revealed pottery, animal bones, and a rare knife, suggesting it was a focus for religious gatherings. The discovery was made as part of work for the British defense ministry. Stonehenge remains a symbol of British culture and a major tourist attraction. ---- That was the I.C.R.T. EZ News, I'm _____. -- Hosting provided by SoundOn

Ranking second on the 2026 World Watch List, Somalia remains one of the most dangerous countries in the world for followers of Jesus. Public Christian worship is forbidden; conversion from Islam is illegal; and the militant terrorist group, Al-Shabaab, continues its violent campaign to eliminate Christianity – openly executing anyone suspected of having faith in Jesus. In the midst of this intense persecution, God is powerfully at work. Through the ministry of Somalia Christian TV, countless Somalis are hearing the Gospel, and thereby encountering Jesus for the first time. The media ministry, led by former Somali Muslims Shino and Shania Gabo, is reaching deep into Somali communities with the hope, truth and life-changing message of God's salvation through Christ. During this episode of Closer to the Fire, podcast host Greg Musselman is joined by Shino and Shania who will be sharing their remarkable testimonies. In addition to revealing the tremendous impact that this couple's growing media outreach is having on so many lives in Somalia, the interview will also address the real dangers they continue to face because of their courageous faith.

Welcome to Zooming In. I'm Berny Belvedere for The UnPopulist. The World Cup is finally here! It's hosted by the United States, Mexico, and Canada. It's the largest World Cup in history. On Thursday, Mexico kicked off the competition by beating South Africa 2-0, and the U.S. followed that up the next day with possibly its best-ever performance in the World Cup, a thoroughly convincing smackdown of Paraguay. Both Mexico and the U.S. started really strong and have their fanbases dreaming of World Cup glory.On Wednesday, the eve of the cup, I sat down with León Krauze, contributing columnist at The Washington Post and host of the Boca de León podcast, to discuss the great tournament. Our focus wasn't so much the soccer aspect of it all—but rather how this World Cup, thanks to Donald Trump's anti-immigrant maximalism, has in some key ways betrayed its own promise.What makes León the perfect guest for this episode is that not only has he extensively covered the sport of soccer, including the history of Mexican soccer—but he's also a leading commentator on U.S.-Latin American relations.In our time together, we covered a number of incidents that are quite troubling. A FIFA referee from Somalia was detained at a U.S. airport and sent home. Iran's federation had its ticket allocation pulled days before their first match—and the squad has had to relocate its base in Mexico. The acting ICE director [Todd Lyons] told Congress he wouldn't rule out arrests at stadiums, contradicting the assurance that Secretary of State [Marco Rubio] had given Miami's own host committee a week earlier. And Amnesty International published a report calling the United States, on the eve of the world's party, a country facing a “human rights emergency.”There was so much to cover we didn't even get to everything. Iran's players were issued visas only after being warned not to abuse the system, then ordered off American soil the same day as each of their matches. These are professional athletes that the U.S. is telling: “Don't stay the night on U.S. soil.” In another instance, a Moroccan player was held up and nearly denied entry at a U.S. airport, reportedly due to his father's appearance—specifically, his beard. Although DHS says ICE won't be deployed for immigration enforcement at venues, its new secretary, Markwayne Mullin, said before the cup that “ICE is always going to do immigration enforcement.” Germany's football federation has actually issued an official advisory to its own players to stay quiet on politics at this tournament. And looming over all of it: FIFA, under Trump's personal friend Gianni Infantino, invented a “FIFA Peace Prize” out of thin air and handed it to Trump, who was sad over not winning the Nobel Peace Prize.In our conversation, we hope the following comes through: We couldn't be more excited for our favorite sporting event to get underway, but we couldn't be more disappointed in how the build up to this tournament has in some ways proceeded in direct contradiction to how it was initially sold.We hope you enjoy.Thanks for reading The UnPopulist!

In this episode of The Horn, Alan speaks with Babatunde Afolabi, former Africa Director at the Centre for Humanitarian Dialogue (HD), now Director of Political Affairs at the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) Commission, about mediation and conflict resolution in the Horn of Africa. They discuss HD's discreet work facilitating dialogue between conflict parties, and why the Horn's history, politics and geopolitics make regional cooperation such a challenge. They turn to Ethiopia's Tigray region, where the Pretoria agreement that halted two years of devastating war risks unravelling, and to Oromia, where HD- and IGAD-facilitated talks between the government and the Oromo Liberation Army came close to a deal before collapsing. They also discuss Sudan's hard-to-resolve war, prospects for dialogue with Al-Shabaab in Somalia, and why locally grounded dialogue remains essential to ending wars.For more, check out our Horn of Africa page.

On Pushing Forward with Alycia, host Alycia Anderson welcomes guest Jessica Buchanan, a New York Times bestselling author, speaker, podcast host, and kidnapping survivor, to discuss resilience, mental health, and purpose after trauma. Buchanan recounts how a teacher from Ohio came to work in Somalia in mine risk education for the Danish Demining Group, ignored her intuition after feeling pressured to travel, and was kidnapped at gunpoint with a Danish colleague, held hostage outdoors for 93 days, threatened with being sold to Al-Shabaab, starved, isolated, and fearful of losing her mind. She describes the January 25, 2012 rescue by SEAL Team Six ordered by President Obama and the call Obama made to her father. Buchanan shares her PTSD recovery, therapy and medication, her concept of “surviving survival,” how writing and speaking evolved from her first book Impossible Odds to How to Survive Survival, and her mission to help others turn pain into purpose.

There's a second survival phase that comes in the aftermath of your trauma experience.” ~ Jessica Buchanan “There can be more than one hero in a story.” ~ Jessica Buchanan The Heartbeats of This Conversation 

Casi 6.000 personas solicitaron asilo el año pasado en las Islas Canarias. Muchas de ellas no cuentan con los recursos necesarios para valerse por si mismos y son acogidos temporalmente en centros como los gestionados por la Comisión Española de Ayuda al Refugiado, CEAR. Allí tratan de darles las herramientas necesarias para que logren integrarse a nivel personal pero también social. Nuestro enviado especial Manu Terradillos visitó uno de ellos.  Desde Las Palmas de Gran Canaria El centro de acogida de Marpequeña en Telde, Las Palmas ,da refugio a entre 40 y 50 solicitantes de asilo con el objetivo de ser un apoyo más en su camino a la integración. En él viven y se forman estos migrantes en situación vulnerable, sin recursos económicos ni los conocimientos necesarios para establecerse por sí mismos en España.  Vienen principalmente de África y Latinoamérica, aunque su procedencia varía en función de muchos factores, como la economía o las guerras. “Las personas que viven en nuestro centro son solicitantes de protección internacional, lo que comúnmente llamamos asilo. Ahora mismo la mayoría son de Mali, pero hemos tenido épocas, dependiendo de cómo va el mundo y la situación económica y geopolítica, que hemos tenido muchas personas de Venezuela, hemos tenido personas de Cuba, de Nicaragua, de Honduras, de Colombia, de Rusia, de Ucrania, muchas nacionalidades, cuenta a RFI Marita Legon, integradora social de CEAR Canarias. “De países africanos también, de Costa de Marfil, de Guinea, de Nigeria, de Somalia también hemos tenido”, añade. En el centro los residentes cuentan con habitaciones donde alojarse, un comedor, lugares de ocio y atención a niños, ya que hay varias madres llegadas con sus hijos, y también espacios para la formación. Aquí pueden permanecer hasta 18 meses y se les ayuda a entender cómo desenvolverse en la sociedad española, desde ir al médico o buscar alojamiento, hasta inscribir a un hijo en el colegio.  No obstante, a veces hay que empezar por algo más básico, que se sientan en paz con sí mismos tras vivir momentos difíciles. Así lo explica Maritza: “Tienen derecho a la atención psicológica, porque muchas veces es muy, muy, muy importante para que puedan ir avanzando, porque muchos vienen con estrés postraumático, de la experiencia que ha sido la travesía, el llegar aquí”. La integradora social cuenta después qué herramientas les dan para que puedan integrarse: “También tienen derecho a una orientación de empleo y de idioma. Normalmente comienzan con el idioma español si vienen de países que no son de América Latina, por ejemplo.  “Van a clases de español hasta que ya tienen un cierto nivel y pueden pasar a buscar cursos de formación ocupacional. Esa es la parte fundamental, porque al final todas estas personas que llegan aquí lo que quieren es tener un futuro para ellos, para trabajar y vivir dignamente como lo queremos todos en la vida”, concluye.

This episode hosts David Higgins to explore the complex and often misunderstood boundary between military operations, humanitarian action, and political stabilisation in modern conflict environments. Drawing on two decades of experience across the British Army, the United Nations, and geopolitical advisory work, we look at how different institutions operating in the same space can interpret the same conflict in fundamentally different ways, and how those differences shape outcomes on the ground. The discussion focuses on David's central argument that civil-military coordination frameworks still assume a level of clarity between “military space” and “civilian space” that increasingly no longer exists. While these distinctions were difficult but workable in conflicts such as Afghanistan and Somalia, today's environments are far more fragmented, with blurred front lines, overlapping actors, and the increasing weaponisation of civilian domains including information, finance, and infrastructure. As a result, coordination mechanisms risk becoming procedurally active but operationally ineffective. David Higgins is Head of Humanitarian Access and Civil-Military Coordination in Somalia for the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA). He has spent twenty years working across the civil-military boundary as a British Army infantry officer, humanitarian and stabilisation adviser, and geopolitical analyst, including deployments to Helmand Province and roles across Afghanistan, Iraq, and East Africa. He previously served as Head of Geopolitical Analysis at M&C Saatchi World Services and as a reservist Lieutenant Colonel with the British Army's 77th Brigade, and holds a research master's focused on hybrid threats and UK national security. The International Risk Podcast brings you conversations with global experts, frontline practitioners, and senior decision-makers who are shaping how we understand and respond to international risk. From geopolitical instability and organised crime to cybersecurity threats and hybrid warfare, each episode explores the forces transforming our world and what smart leaders must do to navigate them. Whether you're a board member, policymaker, or risk professional, The International Risk Podcast delivers actionable insights, sharp analysis, and real-world stories that matter. Dominic Bowen is the host of The International Risk Podcast and Europe's leading expert on international risk and crisis management. As Head of Strategic Advisory and Partner at one of Europe's leading risk management consulting firms, Dominic advises CEOs, boards, and senior executives across the continent on how to prepare for uncertainty and act with intent. He has spent decades working in war zones, advising multinational companies, and supporting Europe's business leaders. Dominic is the go-to business advisor for leaders navigating risk, crisis, and strategy; trusted for his clarity, calmness under pressure, and ability to turn volatility into competitive advantage. Dominic equips today's business leaders with the insight and confidence to lead through disruption and deliver sustained strategic advantage. Subscribe for all our updates! Tell us what you liked! Tell us what you liked!

En Estados Unidos, el Mundial no es festejo sino miedo para las comunidades de migrantes. En estados como Florida, donde jugarán tres naciones latinoamericanas (Brasil, Uruguay y Colombia), la policía local tiene las mismas facultades que el Servicio de Inmigración y Control de Aduanas (ICE) para detener a personas. Una situación que también podría afectar a los turistas. La política migratoria de Estados Unidos está generando tensiones de cara al Mundial, tanto que la ONU le pidió que revise sus leyes porque considera que van en contra de los derechos humanos y la dignidad humana. El acuerdo 287(g) Florida es uno de los 40 estados donde se aplica el acuerdo 287 (g), ley que permite a los elementos de seguridad locales actuar con las competencias de los federales en cuestiones migratorias. “Con este acuerdo 287(g), entiéndase que un alguacil local puede entonces decir ‘ahora todos mis agentes van a hacer trabajo de inmigración federal también'. Tampoco les están dando el entrenamiento que alguien que va a hacer un trabajo de ley federal necesita. Eso es un peligro”, nos explica Adriana Rivera, vocera de la Coalición de Inmigrantes de Florida. Rivera estima que, en Florida, donde hay una vida turística muy activa por las playas de Miami y los parques de diversión, los turistas son vulnerables a las detenciones en carretera. “La agencia número uno en el estado de Florida que arresta a más personas para inmigración no son agentes federales, son agentes de las carreteras. Eso es un peligro porque sabemos que, al venir familias o personas a ver los juegos del Mundial, tenemos personas que pueden encontrarse en Miami”, irse para Orlando, para los parques, “y pueden encontrarse con una situación bastante incómoda donde un agente de la patrulla de autopistas empiece a hacer algún tipo de trabajo de inmigración con ellos”. “Raíz xenofóbica y racista” La activista lamenta el silencio de la FIFA ante estos peligros. “Nosotros en la Coalición de Inmigrantes de Florida llevamos desde el año pasado hablando y trabajando con la FIFA en Miami, y no hemos llegado verdaderamente a nada porque no nos han querido escuchar. Nosotros hemos intentado de que pongan una moratoria al 287(g) mientras se juegan los partidos del Mundial. Es algo que no han querido hacer y eso es algo que sería sencillo, una moratoria a los agentes”, señala. “Sabemos que es una administración que ha sido sumamente xenofóbica y estamos viendo lo que está pasando hoy día con el equipo iraní, con el equipo de Irak, con el árbitro de Somalia. No vemos el mismo escrutinio con equipos, por ejemplo, de Europa. Entonces vemos que esto sí tiene una raíz xenofóbica y una raíz racista. Por más que ellos quieran negarlo, los datos están ahí”, subraya Adriana Rivera. Esta semana, el gobierno aprobó 70.000 millones de dólares más para la política antinmigración de Donald Trump con la que pretende, según sus palabras, conseguir “la mayor deportación de la historia”.

The war in Iran has had some visible consequences, like skyrocketing energy costs and higher gas prices, but the effects of this war are often far less obvious and much more serious for the world's most vulnerable people.

Even before a game has been played, this year's World Cup has been the source of controversy. Officials and staff from countries like Iraq, Iran and Somalia have been refused entry or face lengthy interrogation by immigration officials at American airports. FIFA President Gianni Infantino has been widely criticized for his proximity to U.S. President Donald Trump after presenting Trump with a ‘FIFA Peace Prize' award and sitting in the front row at Trump's inauguration. For nearly 100 years, leaders across the world have used soccer, and the World Cup specifically, as a tool of power and politics.David Goldblatt is a journalist, sociologist, professor, and the author of bestselling books such as ‘The Ball is round: A Global History of Soccer.' He joins the program to discuss the World Cup's political history, the failed promise of this year's tournament, and how soccer became “our great public and political theatre.” For transcripts of Front Burner, please visit: https://www.cbc.ca/radio/frontburner/transcripts

STREAMING MAKING JBS, FEATURING ROGGIO AND SAYEH, 6-8-26.1895 WAR CANOEThe current global landscape is defined by the "Long War," a volatile intersection of jihadi insurgency, biological threats, and state-level conflict. In Africa, a "twin monster" has emerged: the simultaneous spread of Ebola and jihadist violence across the continent's center. The Ebola threat is "very live," stretching from the DR Congo to Somalia, with hundreds of confirmed cases and thousands more suspected. Jihadist groups like the ISIS-affiliated Allied Democratic Forces (ADF) act as vectors for the virus, tramping through jungles where the disease originates and moving between villages. This crisis is further complicated by the collapse of governance in West Africa and the presence of Russia's Africa Corps and Chinese exploiters targeting gold mines.

   The entire college athletics world melted down Monday in a way we've never seen before.  It's not cheating, it's not stealing and it's not NIL.  It's a judge's ruling that allows a sports betting addict quarterback to play for Texas Tech this year while awaiting a trial about his eligibility.  It's literally everyone in college athletics against renegade program Texas Tech, and by extension, Patrick Mahomes.    The Chiefs are bringing back a familiar player.  The Royals start a homestand.  KU baseball has its magical season end just a step short of the College World Series.  A World Cup referee from Somalia is not allowed in the USA.    In the news, President Trump was a big story at the NBA Finals.  Kansas City is cleaning up for the World Cup in a way one of our listeners has shared he's noticed.      Phil Sarnecki wins a straw poll after last week's debate of candidates for governor.  Spencer Pratt is out in LA.    You won't believe the touching email I received from a patron about his daughter being a contestant on Wheel of Fortune.   And the Iceman turns into something disgusting after scientists scrape his corpse in our Final Final.

A referee traveling from overseas to officiate the World Cup was sent home after being denied entry. Correspondent Gethin Coolbaugh reports.

Baby food should not feel like a trade-off between “quick” and “good”. We sit down with Ed van der Lande, founder of More Toddler Meals, to unpack a deceptively simple question: how do you feed toddlers wholesome meals with real texture and visible ingredients when you are exhausted, out of the house, or racing between nursery pick-ups and work?Ed traces the idea back to a moment on deployment in Somalia, watching his wife carry the full load at home and feeling the friction every parent knows. That frustration turned into an unusual solution: freeze drying. We break down, in plain English, how freeze drying differs from retort and pasteurised pouch foods, why heat can change flavour and texture, and why chewing and oral development matter when little ones are learning to eat. If you care about healthy toddler meals in the UK, convenient baby food, and what “shelf-stable” can look like without turning into puree, this will spark ideas.We also get practical about building a product-based business. Ed shares the leap from British Army major to Amazon, the leadership principles he carried over (high standards, curiosity, customer obsession), and the systems he uses now to keep focus. From home recipe trials and brutally honest feedback to selling at markets, walking into independent retailers, and rethinking online growth, this is a candid look at what it really takes to launch and scale a food brand.If you enjoy the conversation, subscribe, share it with a parent or founder, and leave a review so more people can find the show.Support the show

Larry dives into the latest news on the nomination of a Democrat with a Nazi tattoo, and the implications of this development on the upcoming elections. He also discusses the recent testimony of Chloe Cole, a young woman who was convinced to undergo a sex change at a young age and is now speaking out against the dangers of transgender ideology. Larry also explores the topic of immigration, specifically the influx of migrants from Somalia and their impact on Ohio and other states. He examines the data and statistics on the high rates of welfare dependency and fraud among Somali immigrants, and discuss the need for a more nuanced approach to immigration policy.Become a Townhall VIP member with promo code "LARRY": https://townhall.com/subscribeSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Minnesota's hospitality and leisure businesses lost more than 4,000 jobs and more than $70 million in wages during this winter's surge of federal immigration agents. We learn about the latest the ongoing impacts of Operation Metro Surge. Millions of people in Somalia are facing hunger as the country faces what experts have called its worst drought year on record. A Minnesota-based organization is working to provide relief. And a St. Paul theater where renowned playwright August Wilson began his career is putting on one of his earliest works. Plus, Minnesota was once covered by tall grass, but few such prairies remain. Minnesota Now took a visit to the Bluestem Prairie in the Fargo-Moorhead area to learn what it takes to preserve this landscape.

A severe drought in Somalia has displaced an estimated 200,000 people this year and put millions at risk of hunger, according to the United Nations. The U.N.'s World Food Program Director for Somalia told the Associated Press last month the drought is the country's worst on record. It's a result of several rainy seasons that did not yield much water and it follows years of drought and flooding extremes in the region. These climate events reverberate in Minnesota, which is home to the largest Somali population in the U.S. as well as several groups that provide aid to east Africa. Asiya Mohamed, deputy director of American Relief Agency for the Horn of Africa, joined MPR News host Nina Moini to talk about conditions in Somalia and efforts to provide relief.

STREAMING THE MAKING OF JBS, FEATURING BILL ROGGIO AND JONATYN SAYEH, 6-1-26.1994 YEMEN,The provided transcripts from The John Batchelor Show feature discussions with Bill Roggio and Jonathan Sayehregarding escalating military tensions and diplomatic instability across the Middle East and Africa. The sources analyze the Strait of Hormuz as a primary global flashpoint while examining localized conflicts in Lebanon, Syria, Somalia, and Gaza. Expert commentary highlights the skepticism surrounding a rumored ceasefire between the U.S. and Iran, suggesting instead that both nations remain locked in a cycle of defensive strikes and proxy warfare. Furthermore, the participants evaluate the internal stability of the Iranian regime, noting that domestic repression and internet censorship continue despite the country's economic isolation. The dialogue ultimately underscores a lack of unified American foreign policy and the persistent threat posed by jihadist groups like al-Qaeda and Hezbollah. Overarching themes include the difficulty of achieving lasting peace when adversaries utilize asymmetric warfare to exploit shifting political administrations in Washington.
