WarRoom Battleground EP 903: Christianity with UK political analyst Joseph Robertson

Mr. Holst, wherever you are, I apologize in advance for what I'm about to say. From my research, I know you resented this fact, but unfortunately, I think it's true. Here it is: despite the large catalogue of music Gustav Holst composed, much of it wonderful, he is essentially a one-hit wonder in the classical music world, à la Pachelbel, Dukas, Mascagni, and others. His one hit is a big one, though: an epic, seven-movement suite entitled The Planets. As I said, Holst was not happy about this in the slightest. He was a prolific composer and someone who devoted himself fully to his subjects. He considered other works he wrote better than The Planets, and yet, in the end, we hear very little of his other music, though since the 1980s some of it has been performed more frequently, particularly in the UK. But The Planets is truly a hit: the reason we know Holst's name today, and one of the most frequently performed pieces in the entire Western classical canon. Holst took a novel approach to his depiction of the planets. They are not ordered by their astronomical distance, but by musical cohesiveness. Nor do they depict the planets in a scientific sense; instead, they present a deeply personal astrological interpretation, something we'll explore as we discuss the piece. The orchestration is massive yet subtle, with colors unique both to the work itself and to Holst's output more broadly. It is easy to listen to and straightforward, while also somehow intensely complex and varied. It is powerful, Romantic, thrilling, joyous, mysterious, terrifying, and ultimately cosmic in both conception and execution. This is one of those pieces that people love without necessarily giving it the full respect it deserves. So today on the show, we'll learn a little about Holst's life, what led him to write The Planets, and why this piece grabs hold of us and doesn't let go throughout our journey through the stars. Join us!

“Dead and rotting seagulls within the roof insulation” and “maggots literally raining down on to the lobby” - this quote from a court in South Tyneside sums up the state of our creaking judicial system. So what are we going to do about it? Cut jury trials. Deputy PM and Justice Secretary David Lammy is hoping to clear the court backlog by scrapping jury trials for crimes with sentences of less than three years - but stories like these make Nish and Coco doubtful it will be the silver bullet Lammy hopes. Is removing one of the fundamental building blocks of our justice system worth some sweet sweet efficiency gains?  Then - is this the next post office scandal? Nish and Coco are joined by Liz Sayce OBE to discuss her damning report into how the Department of Work and Pensions failed to notify unpaid carers that they were accruing enormous debt for years.  And Your Party had its founding conference this weekend… and surprise surprise… it was a spicy one. In the end, Team Zarah's collective vision for the party defeated Team Jeremy. Will this be a new chapter or - for a party prone to in-fighting - will this leadership model trip them up from the get go?

Emily Manzon, or Tic Tac, is our guest this week. Emily was looking for an epic way to celebrate her 40th birthday this year, so the Appalachian Trail certainly checked that box. Along the way, Emily gained a respect for the trail and the impact it had upon her, using mantras to reflect her attitude along the way. Missing 200 miles partway through, she could have been content as a 2,000-miler, yet returned to the trail for a more solitary experience as she filled in those miles, heading south. Also this week, I welcomed Dan Durston from Durston Gear to help me with my tent choice for next year's hike. Dan answered all my questions, and I settled on this little beauty below. I'm so looking forward to using the X-Dome 2 next March. In my accountability blog, I share a bit of bad news on the physical prep front, while explaining why I chose the X-Dome 2 as my tent for 2026. I used my hike last year on the South West Coast Path in the UK to help raise money for my absolute favorite charity, Parenting Matters, on whose board I've been privileged to serve for over a decade. You can learn more about the hike and the organization–and donate–by visiting Hike with Steve - Empowering Parents, One Step at a Time | Parenting Matters %. I hope you want to support this critical mission. Don't forget. Our entire series of videos from our Woods Hole Weekend in 2022 is now FREE and available at my YouTube page at Woods Hole Weekend - Trailer There, you'll find all sorts of tips and tricks that our guests took away from the weekend that helped them with their own hikes this year. Check it out. I often ask listeners for ideas on who to interview, and I'm sure several of you say, "I could do that. I've got an awesome story to tell." You're the person we need to hear from. If you'd like to be interviewed on the podcast, just register as a guest on the link below, and I'll be in touch. Come on the show!

Gajus Kuizinas lives in Mexico City, and travels between there, New York and San Francisco. He had a non-traditional upbringing for an engineer, as all of his family were into the arts - so he had to make his own way. He started in Lithuania, and eventually was recruiting to setup computers and networks for dating platforms. Eventually, he got into freelancing, and started his first startup in the UK. Outside of tech, he has a garden, which doubles as an ecosystem for his free roaming hedgehog and bunny.Gajus started to think about the arc of becoming a freelancer. He realized that everyone who goes through a journey as a freelancer feels like a cog in the machine, and falls off the marketplaces out there. He realized that there was a massive vacuum and gap in the internet for these folks that needed to be filled.This is the creation story of Contra.SponsorsIncogniNordProtectVentionCodeCrafters helps you become a better engineer by building real-world, production-grade projects.

This week, Florence & Reed are diving vulva-first into squirting science with JOYclub's brand-new step-by-step squirting course - and yes, they watched it live so you don't have to… except you'll definitely want to after this

Lizzie Dibble wants libraries to lend clothes as well as books. Not just any clothes though. A carefully curated selection of donated second-hand fashion, imbued with the stories of former wearers, and volunteer-run.With Love From… has built a collection of occasion-wear, mostly for women (though there's also a children's dressup box) for library members to loan in her hometown of Oswestry, UK. That focus is intentional, because party dresses are some of the least-worn garments in our wardrobes. Lizzie is on a mission to encourage less wardrobe waste and more collective joy - all while encouraging new users into the existing local library network.We have questions!Who's donating? Who's borrowing? How does it work in practice? Did the library take some convincing? How can others get involved? Could it annoy existing library users who just want a quiet spot to read? Lizzie's answer to the latter is both lovely and surprising. She says that the shared wardrobe is a quiet space, and that's part of why it works. With Love From… is not just like shopping without money, but without the frenzy that underpins so much unsustainable consumption. Could this be a blueprint for shared wardrobes around the world?If you find the Episode valuable, please help us share it.Find links and further reading at thewardrobecrisis.comSupport the show on Substack - wardrobecrisis.substack.comTell us what you think.

On this week's Ask Me Anything episode of The Therapy Crouch, chaos arrives early as the gang spiral into a full-blown debate about moustaches and whether KFC has genuinely changed its name or if Abbey has dreamed it all up.Abbey, Peter and Ross bounce through TV recommendations, misguided attempts at sending GIFs, and a rant about modern cars being so high-tech they may as well require a degree to switch the air-con on.We hear from listeners with dilemmas stretching from long-distance parenting across the US and UK, to birthday surprises gone wrong, to the mother–daughter moment sparked by old photos of Peter that revealed… more than expected. There's 90s nostalgia, Real Housewives burnout, documentary talk, and plenty of those unfiltered Agony Abs moments the listeners love.If you've got a question, a confession, or simply a show you want them to binge—or avoid at all costs—send it in for next week's session.00:00 – Intro00:38 – Mo-vember moustache debate01:15 – The KFC/Hawkins confusion02:28 – “How do you even send a gif?”03:01 – Stranger Things vs Breaking Bad03:41 – Euphoria soundtrack04:03 – New TV recommendations04:39 – Housewives affecting their mental health05:11 – Wildcat documentary mention06:05 – TV review plans06:33 – School days: the kid called Barry Norman07:33 – Road trip question: pick one podcast + one radio station08:48 – 90s music nostalgia kicks off10:02 – Radio vs podcast for long journeys11:06 – Car battery, climate control & dashboard rant12:12 – Power steering nostalgia12:33 – Listener dilemma: kids in the UK & dad in the US14:10 – Managing time zones + co-parenting advice14:43 – Birthday request: Peter tries to leave a message16:00 – They realise there was no phone number16:39 – Mother–daughter story about “old Peter Crouch photos”17:43 – The optical illusion ‘schlong' moment19:24 – Outro + TV recommendations requestFind great deals on the things you love https://www.ebay.co.uk/ Email: thetherapycrouch@gmail.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thetherapycrouchpodcastTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thetherapycrouch Website: https://thetherapycrouch.com/ For more from Peterhttps://twitter.com/petercrouchFor more from Abbeyhttps://www.instagram.com/abbeyclancyOur clips channelhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCZntcv96YhN8IvMAKsz4Dbg#TheTherapyCrouch #AbbeyAndPete #RelationshipAdvice #Podcast Hosted on Acast.

Dasani water, a bottled water from Coca-Cola, proved a big hit in the U.S.A so why did it last for less than 6 weeks in the UK?The BBC Business journalist, Sean Farrington, investigates how it ended up toast, in the company of resident business expert and entrepreneur, Sam White.In the early 2000s, Coca-Cola had entered the growing bottled water market and was hoping to turn its hit new brand in America into a global sensation. But shortly after Dasani water was launched in the UK, things quickly went awry, derailing plans for expansion into Europe. To help explain what happened, Sean and Sam delve into the BBC archives and hear from expert guests including Graham Hiscott, the journalist whose story shone a new light on to the brand, and Conor Carroll a lecturer and marketing expert who has written about the Dasani debacle. They also hear from Toast listener, Chris Leversha, who remembers buying Dasani water and suggested we cover it on the show.At the end, Sam has to come up with her own professional conclusions about the fate of Dasani UK based on what she has just heard. If you have a good idea for an interesting Toast topic then tell us about it - email toast@bbc.co.ukProduced by Jon Douglas, Toast is a BBC Audio North production for BBC Radio 4 and BBC Sounds.

We also discovered that London feels like her second home, that she has a seltzer water addiction, that she loves a sticky toffee pudding, what filming The Holdovers was like and she reveals that she has dumped men over their bad food choices at restaurants! This is surely the first of many meals we'll share with Da'Vine, what a lovely lunchtime treat! Eternity is out in cinemas in the USA now, and UK on the 5th December. Hosted on Acast.

Hint: It's right in the belly of the beast and we want to see you there. All will be revealed soon. And just when we thought the trans madness was dying in the UK, we discover that the Dr Frankensteins/Mengeles of the world are alive and well in that country's National Health Service. They want to recruit 250 humans for gender experiments.Oh but don't worry, these patients/victims will be at least at the ripe old age of 10, and totally understand what they're in for. Of course they can give informed consent. Not. Watch the Scoop this week to hear about the latest attack on children whose bodies are being destroyed on the altar of progress. And our home country of Ireland is constantly proving that it is the most anti-Semitic country in Europe. Now they've somehow sunk to a new low by deciding to rename a park, which was dedicated to a local Jewish hero. Dublin City Council's scheme was thwarted by a technicality, for now… Watch this week's episode to get all of the infuriating details. You can also learn more through Phelim's coverage on Substack(linked below).And in Crazy California, we reveal why the homeless problem will never be solved. It's because Democrats are making just too much money maintaining the problem - as the rest of us suffer from their corruption.And is Ann McElhinney safe to drive on the nation's roads? According to the DMV - she is a danger. If it's true, then how did hundreds of thousands of Indian immigrants get truck driving licenses when they obviously were not qualified? Watch this week to hear our answer. And we have a new “no recipe recipe” for salmon this week. Watch this week to learn how to make one of Ann's favorite dishes. You will also need Ann's recipe for Kale Salad(linked below) for a side and we let you in on our secret for the perfect French Fries.

Dennis, who has suffered a catastrophic injury, is the embodiment of the spirit of Thanksgiving and our interview with him and hearing his message promoting happiness and gratitude still warms the heart. Dennis has had a tough time since then, but he says he is still thankful to be alive. As you know we read all of your comments and loved all of the encouragement that you sent his way. We will be passing on your messages to Dennis.Watch the episode where we will read some of those comments on the air.

This week's guest is Saint Tim! The Charlatans have been one of the most reliably great British bands over their 35 year history. Tons of hits and many great albums. Their profile changed drastically over lockdown when Tim began his Listening Parties on Twitter which managed to unite the entire music world in good vibes at a tenuous time in history. The whole band is back together for their first album in eight years, We Are Love, and are kicking off a UK tour this weekend. Tim discusses coming back for this album after some time off, but also how the Listening Parties evolved into a massive undertaking. We also discuss some deep cuts and chapters in the band's life - some good and some bad, not to mention the artists that have influenced him over the years. Tim has made the world a better place and we're blessed to have him. Enjoy!  The Charlatans - We Are Love - Out Now The Hustle Podcast | creating podcasts | Patreon

Crypto News: SEC Chair Paul Arkins says innovation exemption for crypto firms is coming in January and the SEC wants to open up IPOs. Bank of America Greenlights Wealth Advisers to Recommend Up to 4% Bitcoin Allocation.Brought to you by

Justice Secretary David Lammy has announced plans for a sweeping range of reforms to criminal courts in England and Wales. The proposals include scrapping jury trials for cases where sentences are likely to be less than three years and for trials involving ‘particularly technical and lengthy fraud and financial offences'. They will only be kept for the most serious offences, including murder, robbery and rape. However there are fears that the proposed changes will have a disproportionate impact on women, whether as victims or when accused of a crime and then particularly for women of colour. Nuala McGovern discusses the reforms with Fiona Rutherford, Chief Executive of legal reform charity Justice, barrister Emma Torr, Co-chief of Appeal, a law practice dedicated to challenging wrongful convictions, and Val Castell, Deputy National Chair of the Magistrates' Association. A petition has been launched calling for a national endometriosis registry to track and audit data on diagnosis, treatment and surgery outcomes. It's been spearheaded by Jessica Smith, who, like an estimated one and a half million women in the UK, suffers with endometriosis, a condition which occurs when the tissue, similar to the lining of the uterus, grows in other places, such as the ovaries and the fallopian tubes. Campaigners say the level of care is a post code lottery, with long wait lists and that by streamlining this information some of the gaps in care could be eliminated. Jessica joins Nuala along with Professor Ranee Thakar, President of the Royal College of Gynaecologists and Obstetricians.The Women's Institute has announced a big change - from next April it will no longer offer membership to transgender women. The UK Supreme Court earlier this year ruled that the legal definition of a woman can only be based on biological sex. This comes the day after it was announced that transgender girls can no longer join the Girl Guides, Brownies or Rainbows. The Women's Institute says it's decision comes with the ‘utmost regret.' Melissa Green, Chief Executive of the National Federation of Women's Institutes explains why they came to this decision. The BBC's political correspondent Phil Sim gives the background.Do you like everything to be perfect for Christmas dinner party hosting – the spotless house, the elaborate menu, the Instagram-worthy table setting? But what if the secret to a great dinner party isn't perfection, but scruffy hosting – a trend that is apparently transforming the way we gather together and makes stress-free dinner parties more attainable - perhaps a one-pot dinner, mismatched cutlery, toys under the table or children running around screaming. Helen Thorn, Comedian, Podcaster and one half of Scummy Mummies tells Nuala why she embraces this type of hosting. Presenter: Nuala McGovern Producer: Andrea Kidd

Series: Human Rights in Birth— Birth Options  "Birth is a powerful moment of human life. It deserves the care that honors your rights, your choices, and your profound capacity for strength, trust, and pleasure." —Debra Pascali-Bonaro   Ep 168 Description:    Every birth tells a story, but too often those stories are shaped by fear, misinformation, or lack of choice. Respectful, informed, and pleasure-aware care can change the way we experience birth. Autonomy and knowledge are as vital as safety. In this episode, Debra shares insights from her recent travels to Japan and highlights a powerful open letter from UK midwives, showing how human rights in childbirth can transform care. She unpacks why pleasure, anatomy education, and self-advocacy must be part of every conversation. Press play to rethink birth and explore how care can honor the whole person: Topics discussed: Human rights in childbirth and why they matter Integrating pleasure into birth experiences Anatomy, sexual education, and empowerment Navigating medical interventions with knowledge How culture, providers, and self-advocacy shape outcomes   Connect with Debra!

We're getting into the groove of doing video podcasts now, and today we have another mixed bag of questions. They include the tax implications of moving abroad, whether to start a pension in your 60's, whether it's possible for a pension fund to be too big and lots more besides! Shownotes: https://meaningfulmoney.tv/QA34    01:24  Question 1 Hi Pete and Roger Thanks for the fantastic podcast, YouTube videos (and book) I have learnt so much. My question is essentially about whether to overpay my mortgage or invest. I have watched Pete's videos on this subject but just wanted to check if my situation changes anything. I'm a 41 year old Firefighter and I am in the Firefighters Pension Scheme. I am recently divorced and as such have had to start again with a 25 year mortgage currently fixed for 5 years at 4.1%. Essentially should I focus on overpaying this mortgage so that it is definitely paid off by the time I am 60 (When I can retire from the Fire service) as I already have the DB Firefighters Pension. Or would I still be better to invest this money in a stocks and shares ISA and use it to pay off the mortgage at a later date? My disposable income for whichever option would be around £200 a month. Lastly I will probably continue working past 60 yrs old but it may be in a different profession as by that age I may not feel like dragging hose and climbing ladders anymore! Thanks again, James   05:33  Question 2 Hi Pete and Roger, I've been listening to your brilliant podcast since COVID, so around 5 years now and always look forward to the new episode coming out. I don't really have a financial related question for you, more some advice... I've tried to educate my daughter on personal finance and I think she now has a good grasp and is interested in becoming a financial advisor. She is now 19, has decent A levels and has just completed an Art foundation course. She has University offers for September which she has deferred as she really doesn't want to go! We live in West Kent (nr Tunbridge Wells) and I've been looking for trainee, bottom of the rung, Financial advisor jobs for her but I can't seem to find anything. She could commute to London, if required but would rather stay local if possible. Do either of you have any suggestions about how she might be able to get into the industry? We're happy to pay for courses of that helps her but not sure what would be best. Sorry for the long email, any advice would be very gratefully received. All the best and keep up the great work Matt and Belle Hart   13:23  Question 3 Hello to Pete and Rog, Thanks for the podcast so far, my family is in a much sounder financial footing since I've started putting into action some of the basics you've spoken about previously. ISAs, pensions and insurance all ticking along nicely now - thanks to you! I have a question about my pension, is it possible to add too much? My thoughts are, if my pension pot in today's money is worth £1.25m when I retire, I can take the 250k tax free and £40k a year thereafter, anymore than this and I would be paying 40% tax on my drawings. Are there benefits I'm missing of having a larger pot (say £2m)? Not one I need to worry about yet, if at all, but it's always puzzled me! Many thanks for the content, keep up the good work and enjoy the sunshine this weekend! Adam   18:30  Question 4 Hi Pete & Rog, Have been a long time listener and have loved your double act with the self effacing banter alongside sound, sensible guidance on the minefield that personal finance can often seem to be. Listening whilst walking the dog is like chewing the fat down the pub with a couple of great friends, So my situation is this... 47 years old, married with two kids (11/14). Myself and my wife both have good jobs, own jointly (own names) 8 x BTL properties generating a profit. Equity in Portfolio is about £400k Portfolio was built to provide additional income and to support us in retirement (either the income or by selling) We have our own home (mortgaged) and are in the process of moving to a bigger place as we're growing out of where we are. This will come with a bigger mortgage as we're scaling up so to minimise the increase in monthly payments we're increasing the term back to our state retirement ages (which is a bit depressing!). So our ideal plan is to have the "choice" to semi retire / work as much or little as we want by age 57 - so around 10 years from now but we are not sure whether this is realistic and the best way to set things up to achieve it if it is. We would probably still work part-time beyond 57 but would want to have other sources of income that could support a comfortable lifestyle. To add to the complexity, but in a good way, I'm also in the process of changing jobs and the new job comes with a £20k pa pay rise and a matched pension at 6%. This is obviously lower than my current employers scheme but I plan to at least match what currently goes into my current employer pension one way or the other. So after what must be one of the longest pre-ambles you've ever read here are my question(s): In terms of where we are now do you think getting to a position where we have a choice to retire/semi retire in 10 years is realistic and what are the key things we should be doing now ten years out taking into account our circumstances? How would you approach the pension situation with my change of employer, my thought was to make contributions to my private pension to cover the overall reduction (9% matched to 6% matched) between employers so that I'm still putting in 18% overall. I think I may be able to put as much as I like into my new employers scheme though (but they'll only match 6%) so would this be a better option? In terms of our mortgage in 10 years it will still be around £350k so we would want to reduce this significantly or even pay off in full at that point. My thought was to sell 5-6 of the BTL's over 5 years leading up to age 57 to pay it down however this obviously reduces our passive income from the portfolio and we'd pay a chunk of CGT along the way. Are there any better ways of achieving the same result? I hope I haven't broken any rules around length of email and number of questions, I can only hope you'll treat this with your customary humour and patience! Keep up the great work guys. Best Regards, Nick 25:15  Question 5 Hello Pete and Roger -I'd like to say how your podcast has really helped me to focus on preparing for retirement ,so thank you . My question is I'm in my early 60,s I have 2 x Db pensions which will pay about £22000 Pa immediately if I choose , a full state pension at 67 and I have no mortgage and cash savings of £235000 half of which is in cash ISAs. My DB Pensions and state pension will be enough for my life style . I may move home next year hence the large cash savings and also because I recently divorced and that's how the settlement added to that figure. It was a coercive relationship and I'm so worried now I hold too much cash as I never had my own money to invest in a pension. Prior to the marriage and children I did work and pay into a pension which will provide half of the DB pension as stated earlier but that all stopped when I married. Should I start a personal pension now so close to retirement if I know I'll have spare cash to pay the max £3600 inc tax relief to take advantage of the tax relief and build up a pot not for income necessarily but for care home fees /inheritance tax costs for my two young adult children? Or shouldn't I worry? Many thanks for your help. Charlotte. 30:13  Question 6 Dear Pete and Rog, Thank you so much for your incredibly valuable podcast. I've learned a great deal from it and really appreciate the clarity and insight you bring to complex financial topics. Can't wait for the Youtube version to finally see what Rog looks like!  I had a question that I hope you might be able to shed some light on. My wife is from Slovakia, and we're likely to retire there in the future with our two children. I understand that capital gains tax and inheritance tax are both zero in Slovakia. However, I've read that UK-situs assets remain within the scope of UK inheritance tax even after leaving the UK, and that these would seem to include UK-domiciled OEICs such as the Vanguard LifeStrategy 100% fund, which I currently hold in a general investment account. Would it therefore make sense to consider switching from the LifeStrategy 100% UK domiciled fund to an Ireland-domiciled ETF such as the Vanguard FTSE All-World UCITS ETF (VWRP)? Would doing so resolve the issue of UK IHT exposure on those Situs assets? Or transferring the UK OEICs to a global investment platform, would that work (seems too easy to be true)? Any other tips to look into before making the big move abroad? Thank you very much again for your time, and for all the invaluable information you share! Please keep it going ! Best regards, John

For 20 years, Maria Sinclair watched other people get promoted while she stayed stuck in her own head. She questioned whether she belonged, worried about how she was perceived, and doubted nearly every decision she made. Then Covid hit, and everything changed. Cobalt furloughed 45 of its 55 UK staff, leaving only ten people working. Maria picked up multiple desks, supported clients across new specialisms, and kept the operation steady during one of the most challenging periods the industry had ever seen. That moment revealed a capability she had never fully recognised in herself. Today, Maria is the Managing Director of Cobalt, ranked 49th in the UK's Hot 100 list based on GP per employee. After 23 years with the business, she has worked her way up from recruitment consultant to MD while helping build a culture known for tenure, trust, and consistent performance. In this conversation, Maria explains how she built confidence later in her career, why she focuses on job quality over call volume, how openness about challenges like perimenopause strengthens team culture, and how Cobalt hires for work ethic and trains for market expertise. If you have ever doubted whether you are ready to lead, this episode shows what becomes possible when you start backing yourself. You'll learn: • How Maria entered recruitment after being rejected eight times • Why confidence took decades to develop • How she navigated the 2009 crash, Brexit, and Covid • Why the COVID-19 crisis became the turning point in her leadership • The cultural principles that support performance • Why job quality matters more than call volume • How Cobalt assesses work ethic and validates billings • The patience required to train recruiters from other sectors • Why expertise beats activity in the built environment Timestamps: [6:00] Breaking into recruitment after eight rejections [18:29] The confidence struggle [24:09] Navigating economic shocks [25:36] The Covid moment [28:49] The promotion that shifted everything [30:44] Being open about perimenopause [36:17] Culture and retention [41:37] KPIs that matter [50:18] Hiring for work ethic [54:29] Training recruiters from other sectors [58:13] Becoming an industry expert [1:01:06] Closing rate problems and what they mean Guest Bio: Maria Sinclair is the Managing Director of Cobalt, operating across the built environment with offices in the UK, Germany, and the US.

Brad and Abbey kick off Episode 170 celebrating the Christmas season before diving into Trump's major announcement of the Trump Accounts Program and Michael Dell's historic $6.25 billion donation, breaking down how the savings initiative will work for millions of American children. They react to Stephen Miller's fiery explanation of Biden's parole scheme, then shift to shocking stories from the UK, where a man was arrested simply for posting a vacation photo holding a gun, sparking a larger discussion on crumbling free speech and global authoritarian creep. The episode also examines psychological manipulation in modern media, the erosion of cultural individuality, and the rise of openly racist rhetoric from political commentators. In classic Brad and Abbey fashion, the show blends sharp commentary with real life as they bring viewers along for their Alaska woodshed-building project, complete with frozen lumber, bird's-mouth cuts, and plenty of laughs.

What happens when a nation's energy security rests on volatile global gas markets? Why does the UK pay market prices for some of the world's cheapest-to-produce gas? And is now the moment to rethink decades of “leave it to the market” dogma?This week on Cleaning Up, Baroness Bryony Worthington sits down with Seb Kennedy, energy journalist and founder of Energy Flux, to unpack the turbulent geopolitics of natural gas, the coming LNG glut, and why the UK–Norway relationship sits at the heart of Britain's energy affordability crisis.Drawing on their recent joint op-ed, Bryony and Seb explore the UK's dependence on Norwegian gas, the vast windfalls that have flowed into Norway's sovereign wealth fund since Russia's invasion of Ukraine, and whether a new bilateral deal could shield consumers from future price shocks. They examine the structural forces reshaping global gas markets, the rise of speculative trading, and whether electrification will become harder when gas gets cheap.Leadership Circle:Cleaning Up is supported by the Leadership Circle, and its founding members: Actis, Alcazar Energy, Davidson Kempner, EcoPragma Capital, EDP of Portugal, Eurelectric, the Gilardini Foundation, KKR, National Grid, Octopus Energy, Quadrature Climate Foundation, SDCL and Wärtsilä.
