In Chapter 16 of The Book of Trump, Ghost welcomes engineer Brad Zerbo for a deep-dive into one of Donald Trump's most iconic creations: Trump Tower. What begins as a breakdown of Manhattan's architectural evolution turns into a full-on love letter to craftsmanship, strategic development, and the business mind behind the Trump Organization. From the stepped glass design of Trump Tower on 5th Ave to Trump City's sweeping Riverside South transformation, Brad shares firsthand experience building Trump projects and navigating New York's brutal construction world, where, he says, Trump was legendary for always paying on time. The duo also explores Parisian architecture, BOMA square footage battles, Gothic influences, tax abatements, and the philosophical shift from craftsmanship to soulless glass boxes. Then, they pivot to the future: Trump's bold expansion into the Middle East with new towers underway in Dubai and Jeddah. With floor plans priced from $1.1M and expected delivery in 2031, the Trump brand is positioning itself as a cornerstone in the coming global realignment. A rich blend of construction nerdery, historical context, and geopolitical vision, this episode builds far more than just towers.
In this Special Edition of Geopolitics with Ghost, host Ghost returns from France on his birthday and the anniversary of the 2017 Sword Dance to deliver a sweeping, multilayered recap of Trump's monumental Middle East tour. He begins with a breakdown of Russia's Victory Day parade, Xi and Putin's alliance, and Burkina Faso's Traoré defying Western regime-change operations. But the heart of the episode lies in Ghost's granular analysis of Trump's stops in Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the UAE, marking a new era of sovereign alliances and massive economic reorientation. Ghost details over $2 trillion in trade, energy, defense, and tech deals, including space partnerships, missile defense systems, rare earth mineral investments, and Trump Towers rising in Jeddah and Dubai. He connects threads between Trump, MBS, AI, Kanye's “Drome” city project, XAI investments, and symbolic cues like Trump's crosshatch tie. Also covered: Syria's quiet shift, Rubio's evolving stance, MBS's quiet power moves, and legacy narrative warfare from neocons like Lindsey Graham and Mark Levin. This is Ghost at his best, braiding geopolitics, comms, history, and deep symbolism into a compelling vision of what comes after the collapse of the old guard.

On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, so many wacky things are happening it's hard to know where to look first. A contest of sorts has played out across Europe, the United States and the Middle East in recent days as President Trump's two older sons have pursued a blitz of family moneymaking ventures capitalizing on their father's name and power, each seemingly trying to outdo the other. It is a rush to cash in that involves billions of dollars with few precedents in American history. A luxury hotel in Dubai. A second high-end residential tower in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. Two cryptocurrency ventures based in the United States. A new golf course and villa complex in Qatar. And a new private club in Washington DC called Executive Branch that costs $500,000 a year just to be a member. The ‘money train' has roared into town, but so far, there's no seats available on it for the average American citizen like me and you. President Donald Trump promised us prosperity, saying he would bring in a ‘golden age' of America. But so far, the only people that seem to be prospering are the Trump inner circle crypto warriors and the high rollers in Abu Dhabi. On this episode, we show you what's going on over at World Liberty Financial and why you should be just a little concerned.

Welcome to our motorsports podcast where we discuss F1, IndyCar, IMSA, NASCAR, our own racing adventures, and some other adventures!Piastri goes back to back with a win in Jeddah to take the lead of the driver's championship in F1. The race essentially boiled down to a 5 second penalty given to Verstappen after a Turn 1 Lap 1 incident where Piastri runs Verstappen off the road in a situation where both drivers were going faster than they normally would be entering the corner.WEC had a fantastic race in Imola where although Ferrari took the pole and won the race, in Hypercar, it wasn't with ease. Strategy after some ill-timed full course yellows mid-race led to a great race that tested driver's patience as Imola is a fast and tight track that can be very high risk with high reward if successfully pulled off. In GT3, Manthey Porsche won the race narrowly ahead of the WRT BMW. A great battle that came down to the last lap and almost the final two corners between Richard Lietz and Kelvin Van der LindeComing up this weekend: NASCAR is at Talladega

Esta semana la F1 descansa, pero aún nos queda mucho por analizar del espectacular último Gran Premio de Fórmula 1, y para eso está el segundo episodio de la semana del Podcast Técnica Fórmula 1, que además nos prepara para otra prueba espectacular en nuestra propia casa. GP de Arabia Saudí, las claves de la carrera. En este programa se analizan todas las claves que nos dieron una carrera tan entretenida y llena de acción el fin de semana pasado, como la sanción a Verstappen en la vuelta 1, el choque entre Tsunoda y Gasly, también en la vuelta 1, que arruinó la carrera de ambos y provocó un safety car y todas las luchas, en todas las alturas de la tabla, que vimos. Hay que analizar detenidamente la carrera que hicieron tanto Norris, con una remontada espectacular, como Leclerc, con un coche muy inferior pero al que consiguió sacarle mucho partido y con el que consiguió quedarse en el tercer escalón del podio. La verdad es que alargar su primera parada y la buena gestión de las gomas que hace el monoplaza de los de Maranello ayudó bastante. Pero, a pesar de que la lucha Leclerc - Norris fue espectacular al final de la carrera, la lucha verdaderamente bonita estuvo entre Hadjar (10º) y los Williams, con un Sainz imperial dando DRS a su compañero Albon para evitar que el rookie pudiera pasarlo con el Racing Bulls. Verdaderamente espectacular, como decimos. También hay que comentar el estado de los pilotos al final de carrera, una prueba muy rápida, de las más rápidas de la temporada sólo superada por Monza, pero, además, entre muros, como circuito urbano que es el de Jeddah… y por si fuera poco, con un calor tan excesivo que algunos pilotos (como Antonelli) no podían andar solos tras la carrera, por el agotamiento excesivo. Rally Islas Canarias, el WRC en casa. Como decíamos al principio, este fin de semana tenemos el rally de casa en el WRC, el Islas Canarias, que regresa al campeonato para dejarnos, seguro, una prueba memorable, llena de preciosas imágenes. Será una prueba de asfalto, que va a ser espectacular, máxime con una afición como la canaria tan volcada en la categoría. Y, por supuesto, los horarios vuelven a la normalidad para permitirnos disfrutar, sin madrugar excesivamente, de la prueba.

The Australian drove a commanding race in Saudi Arabia to assume the lead of the championship.
This is the Catch Up on 3 Things by The Indian Express and I am Ichha Sharma.Today is the 22nd of April and here are today's headlines.En route to Jeddah today for a two-day visit to Saudi Arabia, Prime Minister Narendra Modi described the nation as “one of India's most valued partners — a maritime neighbour, a trusted friend and a strategic ally”. He also said that the partnership between the two countries has “limitless potential”. Modi is set to meet Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman tonight, where both leaders are expected to discuss expanding cooperation in an array of crucial areas, such as energy, defence and trade, besides expediting Riyadh's $100 billion investment plan for India. Besides bilateral ties, the two leaders will also exchange views on pressing regional and global issues, including the overall situation in West Asia.In the first high-level visit from the White House since the inauguration of President Donald Trump in January, US Vice-President J D Vance met Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday and both sides “welcomed the significant progress” in negotiations towards a India-US bilateral trade pact, framing it as a “new and modern trade agreement.” Vance today praised India's heritage and strategic partnership with the US, saying, “I believe there is much that the US and India can accomplish together.” Speaking in Jaipur, he noted that both nations are working toward a bilateral trade agreement based on shared priorities. Referring to past policies, Vance said, “We are not here to preach,” and highlighted President Trump's vision to “rebalance global trade” and “build a bright new world” with partners like India. At least eight people, including tourists, were injured in a suspected militant attack in south Kashmir's Pahalgam today. Sources said two of the injured are critical. According to sources, militants opened fire on tourists at Baisaran, an off-the-road meadow in Pahalgam. Baisaran is a popular destination among tourists. Police sources said that at least eight people, including tourists, were injured in the shootout. Police sources said the number of injured could increase.A few days after warning against judicial overreach, Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar emphasised today that Parliament is supreme, and elected representatives are the final arbiters of the Constitution. Addressing a gathering at an event called ‘Kartavyam' in Delhi University, marking 75 years of the Constitution, Dhankhar said, “There is no visualisation in Constitution of any authority above Parliament… elected representatives… They are the ultimate masters as to what (the) Constitution content will be.” He referred to Indira Gandhi's imposition of the Emergency in 1975 and her electoral defeat in 1977 to underscore how elected representatives are most accountable to the public.Gold prices are glittering above the Rs 1 lakh-level per 10 gm for the first time as the international prices surged after US President Donald Trump unveiled plans to overhaul the Federal Reserve. Gold consolidated its position as the best safe haven asset in the volatile global financial markets. The price of 24-karat gold (999 fineness) was quoted at Rs 1,00,000 per 10 gm in the Mumbai bullion market today. The price of 22 karat gold was quoted at Rs 91,600 per 10 gm on Tuesday as global markets continued to remain jittery over the Trump's tariff plans and his threat to revamp the US Fed that could lead to a spike in inflation and interest rates.US President Donald Trump is facing a significant dip in his economic approval ratings, with his performance on the economy registering the lowest numbers of his presidency. According to the latest CNBC All-America Economic Survey, broad discontent over issues like tariffs, inflation, and government spending has contributed to this decline. The surge of economic optimism that followed Trump's election in 2024 has all but disappeared, with more Americans now predicting that the economy will worsen, a stark shift from the hopeful outlook that marked earlier years. The survey revealed a sharp turn towards pessimism about the stock market as well, with many feeling uncertain about future economic prospects.This was the Catch Up on 3 Things by The Indian Express

And will his mindset change now he's the one with a target on his back? Lando Norris joins the pod after recovering from his crash in qualifying to climb from P10 to P4. He reveals what he did differently before the race to relax and why he puts so much pressure on himself to perform, while McLaren CEO Zak Brown explains why their rivals may not be as far behind as the Constructor Standings lead us to believe. Plus, after Max Verstappen's sensational pole lap and P2 finish, are we seeing signs of a Red Bull recovery? Is Max Verstappen still capable of winning a fifth title in a row? And should Red Bull focus all their energy on improving their 2025 car rather than 2026? Also on the agenda: how did Charles Leclerc secure Ferrari's first Grand Prix podium of the season? Where does the data suggest Lewis Hamilton is struggling with the car? Why were Mercedes slower in the race than in qualifying? And what did Williams get right to achieve a double points finish? *** WIN A £100 F1® STORE VOUCHER, A LEGO F1® COLLECTION BUNDLE + MORE THIS EASTER WITH F1 UNLOCKED Thanks to F1 Unlocked, you can win an amazing F1® Partner prize bundle, which includes: £100 F1® Store voucher, 2025 Miami Grand Prix poster, Puma F1® Racing Jacket, Hot Wheels F1® diecast bundle and a LEGO F1® collection bundle Don't miss out on this exciting opportunity.

The 2025 #F1 Saudi Arabian GP Weekend is far from over yet! In this LIVE episode of the Inside Line F1 Podcast, Kunal Shah and Sundaram Ramaswami discuss a dramatic, yet an edge-of-your-seat worthy Saturday qualifying session in Jeddah. Here's where the slightest error could cost you everything — just ask Lando Norris! That being said, it was Max Verstappen at the end who did deliver a sensational lap to take the pole position! Our outlook for the weekend: - Is Lando Norris caving under pressure and will Oscar Piastri keep outshining him the rest of the season? - Will Max Verstappen convert his pole into an unchallenged victory? - Historical data suggests a preference for one-stop strategies during the race, but the softer compounds could prompt teams to reconsider. So how will the teams navigate their tyre and pit stop strategies? - With Russell P3 and Antonelli P5, Mercedes cars have a competitive edge. Does this indicate the team's potential to challenge at the front, especially if they can capitalise on race-day strategies? Will Ferrari find a race defining solution going into Turn 1 tomorrow? Join the conversation! Send in your thoughts and comments too! Who are you rooting for winning the Saudi Arabian GP Race in 2025?
McLaren is on top again, with Lando Norris leading Oscar Piastri at the end of Friday practice in Jeddah. This week's host is Julianne Cerasoli. You can find Ju on social media. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Tom Clarkson is joined in the Jeddah paddock by Alpine Test and Reserve Driver Paul Aron to preview this weekend's Saudi Arabian Grand Prix. What challenges does this circuit provide drivers and teams? Are McLaren still the clear favourites? Or could we see another Suzuka-esque surprise from Max Verstappen? With just three points between championship leader Lando Norris and his teammate Oscar Piastri, Paul draws on his own experience from Formula 2 to explain how being the hunted compares to being the hunter in a title fight. Paul also raced against most of this year's rookies in F2 last year so shares his thoughts on how Kimi Antonelli, Ollie Bearman, Isack Hadjar, Gabriel Bortoleto and Jack Doohan are performing so far. And he tells Tom why Alpine were able to score their first points of the season in Bahrain and how Pierre Gasly has stepped up as team leader this season. *** WIN A £100 F1® STORE VOUCHER, A LEGO F1® COLLECTION BUNDLE + MORE THIS EASTER WITH F1 UNLOCKED Thanks to F1 Unlocked, you can win an amazing F1® Partner prize bundle, which includes: £100 F1® Store voucher, 2025 Miami Grand Prix poster, Puma F1® Racing Jacket, Hot Wheels F1® diecast bundle and a LEGO F1® collection bundle Don't miss out on this exciting opportunity.

We're heading to one of the fastest street circuits on the calendar—the Jeddah Corniche Circuit! With its stunning night backdrop and blistering speeds, this track never disappoints. In this episode, we break down the major storylines heading into the weekend:
In this fifth episode of the Cultural Intelligence series, Julia Middleton pauses to answer the questions you've been sending in. After four episodes unpacking the Core and Flex model and exploring what happens when cultures collide, both between people and within individuals, this episode dives into real-world dilemmas, confusions, and curiosities. “Almost everybody you meet will have a different culture from you,” says Julia. “CQ is about interfacing with cultures that aren't your own. Way beyond just race.” Julia responds to questions such as: • Does your Core ever change? • Can organisations have Core and Flex? • Do you always have to stand up for cultural intolerance? • How do you find your knots, your biases, and what do you do about them? She shares personal stories. Choosing whether or not to cover up in Jeddah. Picking a sari for her son's wedding in Bangalore. Moments that show how her own Core and Flex have evolved. Listen to this episode to reflect on your own Core and Flex, learn why self-awareness is key to leading across cultures and discover how CQ is not about perfection, it is about staying curious, courageous, and committed to growing.
