Round 9 of the MPFNL season has delivered plenty to talk about, both on and off the field, Hosted by Adam Kelly, The Chief Susovich, Leigh McQuillen and Jake Kelly. Across Division 1 and Division 2 we witnessed some outstanding football, thrilling finishes, standout individual performances and several results that continue to reshape the ladder as we move towards the midpoint of the season. Division 1 continues to tighten, with a number of clubs making strong statements and showing they are genuine contenders. Division 2 remains one of the most competitive competitions in recent memory, with ladder positions changing weekly and every result proving crucial in the race for September. Unfortunately, the weekend was also overshadowed by several off-field incidents involving supporters and players at multiple venues. While the vast majority of participants continue to represent their clubs with pride, these incidents have become a talking point throughout the football community and will no doubt feature in tonight's discussion.One of the major positives to emerge this week is the arrival of the new turf surface at Olympic Park. The upgraded playing surface is a significant investment in local football and is expected to provide a safer, more consistent environment for players, officials and supporters for years to come SUS'S PALLETS returns tonight with plenty to unpack. Following a flood of emails and messages throughout the week, Sus will tackle the major issues being discussed across the league, including supporter feedback, club concerns, facility updates and the topics everyone is talking about around the grounds. Proudly supported by Toyota Frankston, Mornington & Rosebud, Inna Protein, The Little Court Co, LC Construction and Impact Glass & Glazing.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The U.S. Center for SafeSport was created in 2017 by the U.S. Congress in the wake of the Larry Nasser scandal to address abuse and misconduct in American Olympic and Paralympic sports. On this episode, we talk with Benita Fitzgerald Mosley, who became the organization's new chief executive officer in February 2026.

Fresh off the back of our latest episodes Ed Balls and George Osborne get an answer to their queries around the curate eggs and a follow up to the Libya crisis series on age in politics. In politics, particularly the Tories, you're considered young at 40 or 50 while in tech it makes you ancient. Why is this? Youth is often seen as a negative in politics, but is there value to not being weighed down by your experiences? Then the pair answer a question from the Barclays Brief podcast on the gilt markets, and options open to Rachel Reeves should higher energy prices limit her fiscal headroom. They explain why her options are severely limited coming into the second half of this the parliament and what options are still available for her.Baroness Jo Valentine then asks a question around rail development at Heathrow should the third runway be developed. They point to past projects like the Millennium Dome and Olympic Park as pointers on what you should and shouldn't do, while exploring why planning often takes so long in Britain.Finally, they address a question on many people's minds: what happens if we're plunged into active war? They discuss whether the government should better prepare the public for this event, and what areas of weakness the government should address to better protect the public in future. We love hearing from you, so please don't forget to send all your EMQs to questions@politicalcurrency and make sure to include a voice note of your question.Thanks for listening.

I don't want that to happen, but it probably will. However, now that we have Complete and Total Regime Change, where different, smarter, and less radicalized minds prevail, maybe something revolutionarily wonderful can happen, WHO KNOWS? We will find out tonight, one of the most important moments in the long and complex history of the World. 47 years of extortion, corruption, and death, will finally end. God Bless the Great People of Iran! – @realDonaldTrump (Apr 07, 2026, 6:06 AM) Based on conversations with Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and Field Marshal Asim Munir, of Pakistan, and wherein they requested that I hold off the destructive force being sent tonight to Iran, and subject to the Islamic Republic of Iran agreeing to the COMPLETE, IMMEDIATE, and SAFE OPENING of the Strait of Hormuz, I agree to suspend the bombing and attack of Iran for a period of two weeks. This will be a double sided CEASEFIRE! The reason for doing so is that we have already met and exceeded all Military objectives, and are very far along with a definitive Agreement concerning Longterm PEACE with Iran, and PEACE in the Middle East. We received a 10 point proposal from Iran, and believe it is a workable basis on which to negotiate. Almost all of the various points of past contention have been agreed to between the United States and Iran, but a two week period will allow the Agreement to be finalized and consummated. On behalf of the United States of America, as President, and also representing the Countries of the Middle East, it is an Honor to have this Longterm problem close to resolution. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J.
