Vous connaissez les “bullshit jobs”, ces boulots peu intéressants, aux tâches répétitives, parfois même inutiles et vides de sens ? J'espère que vous n'êtes pas directement concernés, et si c'est le cas, laissez vous consoler : le “bullshit job” c'est peut-être le mal du siècle, mais autrefois certains emplois relevaient carrément de l'enfer sur terre ! Soit ils ont disparu, soit ils sont devenus très différents, alors aujourd'hui je vous présente la troisième fournée des pires jobs de l'histoire !Bonne écoute !

This episode of The New Abnormal podcast features Fatima-Zahra Ma-el-ainin, who is a psychologist, poet, and narrative architect reimagining how societies cultivate wellbeing. Her work sits at the intersection of systems work, knowledge design, and social transformation, informed by more than a decade of experience in systems mapping, programme design, and conversational leadership. Through global commissions, institutional partnerships, and field-building initiatives, she develops frameworks that elevate wellbeing from intervention to design principle. She currently serves on the Lancet-LSHTM Commission on the Emotional Determinants of Health, and co-leads the World Economic Forum's Future50 Initiative. Previously, she co-founded a mental health social enterprise whose programs and curricula impacted seven million students in Morocco. A sought-after speaker, she has addressed audiences at the UK Parliament, the World Economic Forum's Annual Meeting in Davos, the IAYMH Conference, and TEDx, among other platforms. So, I hope you enjoy listening to her as much as I did, in a dynamic conversation that takes in all of the above and more! 

Prime Minister's Questions - 20 May 2026 by UK Parliament

On the program today, we ask if you attended your senior prom, are kids taking longer to grow up than they used to, what are things people do that annoy you, how to you think the Sabres will fare in game five and in the series at large against the Montreal Canadiens, and after the UK Parliament passed a bill that would disallow cigarette purchases for anyone born after 2008, should the United States consider something similar?

Libby Watson of What's All This Then? returns to the show to talk about the tragic downfall of Our Keir, whose Labour Party lost massively in recent local elections. We also talk about a golden statue of Trump built by Hasidic ultra-Orthodox Jews and the UK Parliament's (reported) drinking problem. Finally, we have a Chapo reading series double feature: Richard Dawkins thinks Claude is real and a babe, and Megan McArdle wants to heal the nation with memes.

Good morning.Ocean transport has rarely left our news headlines over these last few weeks. The ongoing efforts of the USA and Iran to block or open up the Strait of Hormuz now being joined by the plight of passengers on a virus struck cruise ship, finally docked in Tenerife.It's tempting then, to think of the world's oceans primarily as means of transporting travellers and goods. Yet, as ocean naturalists, from Rachel Carson to David Attenborough, have repeatedly reminded us, the seas are home to a vast array of amazing species. The wonders of our oceans are however, now at significant risk from two direct consequences of human activity, climate change and pollution. Indeed, it's widely argued by scientists that, for the seas to recover, a minimum of 30% of the world's oceans will need to be protected by 2030.The challenge, as so often with regard to environmental damage, is our human reluctance to take short term sacrifices for longer term gain. Or else we so frame the actions required by way of sacrifice that they fall disproportionately on the poorest among our communities and nations. It is here that two core aspects of my own faith come together.First, as Psalm 95 in the Hebrew Scriptures asserts, “The sea is his, and he made it”. That tells me, our human accountability to God extends to our treatment of the oceans just as much as it does the dry land.Second, those of us with greater wealth or assets are expected to shoulder the heavier burden. As Jesus says in Luke 12: 48, “From everyone to whom much has been given, much will be required; and from the one to whom much has been entrusted, even more will be demanded.”Governments have a vital part to play. The High Seas Treaty, which came into force earlier this year, and the UK Parliament has now legislated to ratify, affords opportunity for safeguarding large swathes of the oceans. The Sargasso Sea, surrounding the Island of Bermuda, and home to a rich and diverse range of species, is a prime candidate for environmental protection measures that avoid destroying the livelihoods of local fishing communitiesI'm grateful too for the work of campaigning organisations, such as Greenpeace, whose ship Witness, I was privileged to visit, with other parliamentarians, recently. Along with sister vessels, it monitors biodiversity and plastic pollution in sensitive areas, exposing behaviours that jeopardise the seas and challenging us all to do better. Together, treaties and campaigners offer me hope that we can yet treasure the world's oceans for their true value, a value far far beyond their immediate usefulness as means to transport the world's supplies of oil. But, as Jesus stated so bluntly, our own individual practices matter too.

Today, we look at a surpirsise move from Labour MP Catherine West. She's called for cabinet ministers to challenge Keir Starmer's leadership - threatening to do so herself if they don't.Laura and Paddy are joined by Henry to discuss she is, why she's doing it, and how dangerous it could be for the prime minister.They also look ahead to next week as the prime minister prepares to make a speech tomorrow, and what we could hear at the state opening of UK Parliament by King Charles on Wednesday.You can now listen to Newscast on a smart speaker.

AI is becoming the last line of defense before a brand accidentally greenwashes itself.In Season 15, Episode 2 of Before The Tipping Point: Where AI and Sustainability Meet Climate Leadership, we're joined by Helen Neal, founder of HN Communications, a B Corp-certified sustainability communications consultancy whose clients include Bosch, Heineken, Asahi, Nissan, and Aston Martin.Helen's background runs deep in regulation and reputation. She came up through the UK Parliament, then held government affairs roles at Virgin Atlantic and Nissan, before founding her agency in 2017. In other words: she knows how the rulebook gets written, and how quickly it can change.We unpack her AI platform, Zena, and how it helps teams stress-test sustainability claims before they hit publish. We talk about navigating frameworks like the EU Green Claims Directive and the UK ASA guidelines, the most common mistakes that turn “good intentions” into high-risk claims, and what credible communication looks like when scrutiny is rising.We also explore the real tension of being a B Corp advising non-B Corp clients: how to hold your values, meet clients where they are, and still move the work forward across different levels of sustainability maturity.If you write, approve, or sign off on sustainability claims, this episode is your risk-reduction playbook.Support the show

In this first episode of our Talking AI series, host Sarah Lister is joined by James Jefferies for a conversation recorded on Kinder Scout in the Peak District. Together, they explore the idea of “rewilding” beyond landscapes and into our digital lives, drawing parallels between ecological restoration and the way today's internet has become increasingly centralised, controlled, and optimised for attention rather than creativity or community.The discussion is inspired in part by the article ‘We Need to Rewild the Internet', which frames the web as an ecosystem in need of diversity and resilience. James reflects on his work in tech and conservation, unpacking themes of power, infrastructure, AI, and the loss of independent spaces online. From small practical changes individuals can make, to bigger systemic questions about ownership, ethics, and the future of AI, this episode sets the tone for the Talking AI series.James Jefferies is a Sheffield-based software engineer with over a decade of experience working across web development, data, and digital infrastructure. Alongside his freelance work, he is a data engineer at Rewilding Britain, where he supports projects that track and scale nature recovery across the UK.His career spans roles in sectors including finance, utilities, and government, as well as collaborations with organisations like the UK Parliament. James is particularly interested in how technology can empower people and communities, and how the systems we build, both digital and ecological, can be more resilient, open, and human-centred.ReferencesThe central article discussed in the episode, exploring how the internet has become increasingly centralised and how it might be reshaped into a more diverse, resilient ecosystem.

Most companies aren't trying to greenwash. They're trying to put their best foot forward — and that's exactly where they go wrong. Helen Neal, founder of HN Communications and creator of the IMPACT framework, has spent over a decade helping major organizations including Bosch, Heineken, and Aston Martin close the gap between what they say and what they actually do on sustainability. In this episode, she joins Corinna Bellizzi to unpack why corporate sustainability communication keeps failing — and what radical honesty, strategic storytelling, and the right AI tools can do to change that. They explore the difference between greenwashing and green hushing (the dangerous silence that's now spreading as companies grow too afraid to say anything at all), why human stories and measurable impact always outperform data tables, and what it actually takes to build stakeholder trust that can't be bought with an advertising campaign. Helen shares her IMPACT framework — Integrity, Meaning, Proof, Action, Consistency, Transparency — and introduces Zena, the AI governance platform she's building to help sustainability teams navigate regulatory risk before they publish. They also dig into B-Corp certification, the Polish beer brand using bison conservation to build authentic purpose, and why Tony's Chocolonely's decision to publicly disclose child labor in its supply chain — rather than hide it — became one of the most powerful trust-building moves in recent brand history. If you work in sustainability, communications, or purpose-driven business, this episode will change how you think about what you say — and what you've been afraid to.

In recent days, MPs in the UK Parliament have ramped up pressure on Prince Andrew over his long-standing residence at Royal Lodge in Windsor Great Park and the lease arrangements tied to it. The estate, part of the Crown's property holdings, was leased by Andrew in 2003 for 75 years in return for a £1 million payment and he paid for around £7.5 million in refurbishments, but has reportedly paid only a symbolic “peppercorn” annual rent for more than two decades. Critics argue the arrangement lacks transparency and raises questions about taxpayer interests and the Crown estate's oversight. At the same time, Andrew's ties to his disgraced former friend Jeffrey Epstein and fresh allegations by Virginia Giuffre in her posthumous memoir have intensified calls for accountability and for Parliament to weigh in.In response, several parties in Parliament are exploring unprecedented steps: the possibility of a full House of Commons debate on Andrew's conduct, and even legislation to permanently strip his titles. Although he has announced that he will cease using his title of Duke of York following discussions with King Charles III, only an Act of Parliament can formally remove it. The government so far has been reluctant to schedule a debate, arguing the Royal Family wishes Parliament to focus on other “important issues,” but opposition parties like the Liberal Democrats are preparing to use opposition-day debates to force scrutiny. Many MPs say the moment demands full transparency and that Andrew (and the Crown estate) should give evidence under oath.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Prince Andrew may face humiliating public rebuke in Parliament as MPs seek opportunity to question his lifestyle and rent-free occupation of state-owned mansion | Daily Mail Online

The appointment of Peter Mandelson as UK Ambassador to the United States is a moment Keir Starmer will rue.On Monday, he faced MPs in the UK Parliament to explain what he knew about the vetting process, which it has been revealed Mandelson failed.Starmer says he knew nothing about it and has sacked the most senior civil servant in the Foreign Office over what he says was the failure to inform him.Mandelson resigned as Ambassador following revelations about his links to the late pedophile Jeffrey Epstein and allegations he had shared sensitive documents with the billionaire.If he wasn't told, how could Starmer have failed to check Mandelson's vetting properly? And as many politicians in Britain are demanding to know, why didn't he ask?Irish Times London Correspondent Mark Paul explains.Presented by Mark Hennessy.

British Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer has been addressing the UK Parliament this afternoon concerning his appointment of Lord Mandelson as Ambassador to the United States. Mandelson was sacked by Starmer last September when further links between Mandelson and disgraced financier Jeffery Epstein emerged, but the UK PM has been coming under increased pressure since it emerged last week that Mandelson had failed security vetting…Joining Shane to discuss this is George Parker, Political Editor at the Financial Times.

Forgiveness is one of the hardest, but most crucial parts of the Christian life. In this episode with Amy Orr-Ewing, we talk about why forgiveness matters right now, especially in a culture shaped by outrage, cancellation, and competing visions of justice. Amy helps clarify the difference between forgiveness and reconciliation, why real forgiveness doesn't minimize harm or remove consequences, and how the cross makes a way to take evil seriously while still offering grace. We also get into trauma, shame, enemy love, and what it looks like to practice forgiveness in our lives and communities without cheapening it.Dr. Amy Orr-Ewing is an international author, speaker and theologian who addresses the deep questions of our day with meaningful answers found in the Christian Faith. She is the author of multiple books including bestsellers ‘Where is God in All the Suffering?', ‘Why Trust the Bible?', ‘Mary's Voice', and her latest ‘Forgiveness Reclaiming its Power in a Culture of Outrage and Fear' releases in 2026.Over the last twenty five years, Amy has spoken in more than 40 countries as a public advocate for the Christian faith including public lectures and open forums on university campuses, and addressing Politicians and Parliamentarians in the UK Parliament and staffers on Capitol Hill, the Senate and the West Wing of The White House.

Day 1,483.Today, as Russia records its highest daily troop losses of the year in its war against Ukraine, we examine how the head of the Russian armed forces, General Valery Gerasimov, is reportedly presenting outdated battlefield information to Vladimir Putin to suggest the situation at the front remains under control. We report on fears that a damaged Russian shadow fleet tanker drifting in the Mediterranean Sea could trigger an environmental disaster of “unprecedented proportions”, and how President Zelensky has shown live battlefield footage from an iPad to the UK Parliament to illustrate the realities of 21st-century warfare. And later, we hear about the Make A Difference Foundation about its work supporting Ukrainian families displaced by Russia's invasion, alongside memories from the First Gulf War with two former tank commanders, including the horror of friendly fire.Contributors:Dominic Nicholls (Host on Ukraine: The Latest). @DomNicholls on X.With thanks to former tank commanders Hamish de Bretton-Gordon and James Hewitt.NOW IN FULL VIDEO WITH MAPS & BATTLEFIELD FOOTAGE:Every episode is now available on our YouTube channel shortly after the release of the audio version.

Most people remember exactly where they were the week of March 11, 2020. Life suddenly stopped. The world went quiet. And for a brief moment, everything about our routines, priorities, and pace of life was thrown into question. Six years later, the world is loud and fast again. But the real question is: what were we supposed to learn from the moment when everything slowed down?In this episode, Ryan talks with award-winning author Chloe Dalton about the strange stillness of those early pandemic months and how one unexpected encounter with a wild hare during lockdown completely changed the way she thought about time, work, and the life she was building. Later in the episode, novelist Susan Straight joins the conversation to reflect on why it's important that we don't rush to forget that time and what remembering the pandemic can still teach us.

Prime Minister's Questions - 11 Mar 2026 by UK Parliament

N. T. Wright is perhaps the most influential New Testament scholar of our generation. He is an Anglican bishop, having served as the Bishop of Durham and as a Lord Spiritual in the UK Parliament. He then became a research professor of New Testament and Early Christianity at St Mary's College at the University of St Andrews in Scotland, and later a senior research fellow at Wycliffe Hall at Oxford.Bishop Wright is the author of over seventy books, many of which are highly regarded as top academic scholarship. But his influence on regular run-of-the-mill Christians is greatest through his many books written at a more popular level, including the three books Simply Christian, Simply Jesus, and After You Believe, which guide readers in faith and Christian living.And, of course, Surprised by Hope: Rethinking Heaven, the Resurrection, and the Mission of the Church. In that groundbreaking book, Tom Wright dismantled the narrative we all assumed was the gospel story: that we are saved in order to go to heaven. He wrote that our hope for the future is our physical resurrection to live with God in the New Heavens and New Earth.This new book, God's Homecoming: The Forgotten Promise of Future Renewal (HarperOne, 2025), almost serves as a sequel to that. He returns to the grand narrative of the Bible and explains that God's promise has always been that he would dwell with humans in a renewed creation. God's home has been, and always will be, with us.Thanks for listening!If you enjoyed this podcast, please share it with your friends!Your hosts are Dr. Bob Robinson and David Loughney.

Aging is not something Zoltan Istvan plans to accept quietly. He wants to treat death like a technical bug, rewrite the rules of biology, and turn California into the global test bed for radical human upgrades. From cyborg implants to AI driven longevity science, this episode explores what happens when a candidate for governor openly argues that humans should evolve beyond their biological limits and take control of how long and how well they live. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey sits down with Zoltan Istvan, a leading transhumanist, futurist, longevity advocate, and current candidate for Governor of California. Zoltan has spoken at Parliaments and Senates around the world, appeared on The Joe Rogan Experience, consulted for the US Armed Forces, and served as a correspondent for The New York Times. He has addressed the World Bank, the World Economic Forum, and the UK Parliament, and his work has influenced world leaders while shaping global conversations on AI, liberty, and human enhancement. Trained in philosophy and ethics at Columbia University and the University of Oxford, Zoltan brings rare depth to the intersection of technology, biology, and governance. Together, they explore whether aging should be classified as a disease, why regulation is slowing breakthroughs in longevity science, and how California could become ground zero for anti-aging innovation. They debate biology versus machine integration, open source technology versus centralized control, and what morphological freedom really means when enhancement technologies move faster than policy. The discussion spans mitochondria, neuroplasticity, brain optimization, stem cells, organ printing, implants, and the ethical risks of surveillance, algorithmic persuasion, and unchecked AI. This episode is essential listening for anyone serious about biohacking, hacking human performance, longevity, metabolism, functional medicine, anti-aging strategies, supplements, nootropics, ketosis, fasting, carnivore frameworks, sleep optimization, and living Smarter Not Harder in a world increasingly shaped by AI and technology, ideally with a cup of Danger Coffee in hand. You'll Learn: • Why aging may be a solvable problem rather than an unavoidable fate • How politics and regulation influence access to longevity and anti-aging therapies • The real tradeoffs between biological upgrades and machine integration • Why mitochondria, neuroplasticity, and brain optimization matter in human enhancement • How AI and surveillance technology threaten cognitive and biological autonomy • What morphological freedom means for the future of medicine and personal choice • Why open source approaches to biohacking could protect liberty and innovation • How Smarter Not Harder strategies support longevity in a rapidly evolving world Dave Asprey is a four time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking.

2025-12-17 | UPDATES #081 | The clock is ticking for Abramovich and his Chelsea Billions. How much, why now and what it means. Three and a half years.

Prime Minister's Questions - 12 Nov 2025 by UK Parliament

A shocking survey reveals how many Australians think political violence is justified, Andrew Windsor’s behaviour to be debated in the UK Parliament. Plus, radio legend John Laws remembered after passing away at 90.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In recent days, MPs in the UK Parliament have ramped up pressure on Prince Andrew over his long-standing residence at Royal Lodge in Windsor Great Park and the lease arrangements tied to it. The estate, part of the Crown's property holdings, was leased by Andrew in 2003 for 75 years in return for a £1 million payment and he paid for around £7.5 million in refurbishments, but has reportedly paid only a symbolic “peppercorn” annual rent for more than two decades. Critics argue the arrangement lacks transparency and raises questions about taxpayer interests and the Crown estate's oversight. At the same time, Andrew's ties to his disgraced former friend Jeffrey Epstein and fresh allegations by Virginia Giuffre in her posthumous memoir have intensified calls for accountability and for Parliament to weigh in.In response, several parties in Parliament are exploring unprecedented steps: the possibility of a full House of Commons debate on Andrew's conduct, and even legislation to permanently strip his titles. Although he has announced that he will cease using his title of Duke of York following discussions with King Charles III, only an Act of Parliament can formally remove it. The government so far has been reluctant to schedule a debate, arguing the Royal Family wishes Parliament to focus on other “important issues,” but opposition parties like the Liberal Democrats are preparing to use opposition-day debates to force scrutiny. Many MPs say the moment demands full transparency and that Andrew (and the Crown estate) should give evidence under oath.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Prince Andrew may face humiliating public rebuke in Parliament as MPs seek opportunity to question his lifestyle and rent-free occupation of state-owned mansion | Daily Mail Online

Kemi Badenoch, Tory Leader and member of UK Parliament, joined the Guy Benson Show today to discuss current events and the state of UK politics. Badenoch discussed why Trump's leadership is something that is sorely needed in the U.K, as many across the pond desire a more conservative government. Benson and Badenoch also discussed several shocking free speech stories coming out of the UK, including a Jewish man who was questioned by UK police for openly wearing a Star of David. Benson and Badenoch also discussed the state of conservatism in the UK and how they are viewed by the country, and why she hopes a signifigant "vibe shift" can provide success for her party.
