When Russia invaded Ukraine nearly two years ago, President Volodymyr Zelensky knew that the Russian military would be hard to defeat – not only because of its strength but because for years “the Kremlin had waged its war through propaganda, seeking to convince anyone who speaks the Russian language that Ukraine does not exist.” That's according to Time Magazine senior correspondent Simon Shuster, who says that Zelensky's former life as an entertainer made him both acutely aware of the power of persuasion and effective at winning support for Ukraine from abroad. We talk to Shuster about Zelensky's rise from stage actor to wartime leader and how his art informed his politics. Shuster's new book, based on years of reporting and interviews with Zelensky and his inner circle, is “The Showman: Inside the Invasion That Shook the World and Made a Leader of Volodymyr Zelensky.” Guests: Simon Shuster, senior correspondent, TIME; author, "The Showman: Inside the Invasion That Shook the World and Made a Leader of Volodymyr Zelensky"

Kate Adie introduces correspondents' dispatches from South Sudan, from the air war over Ukraine, a troubled area of Chicago, a small island off Western Australia and Sweden's capital, Stockholm. The conflict in Sudan which began in April continues to tear its capital city, Khartoum, apart. Hundreds have been killed and more than a million people have fled their homes. Some have connections to South Sudan - which split from Sudan in 2011. Catherine Byaruhanga has been to the South Sudanese town of Renk and heard from families who've managed to return. After attending the G7 summit in Japan, Ukraine's President, Volodymyr Zelensky, tweeted that peace was 'closer today'. One tangible outcome of the meeting was the promise from President Biden that the US would allow countries to supply F16 fighter jets to Ukraine - something President Zelensky has been requesting for months. But just how will these jets help? Our correspondent Abdujalil Abdurasulov talked to two Ukrainian fighter pilots. Chicago has a new mayor. At his swearing-in, Brandon Johnson - a former teacher and union organiser - spoke proudly of his humble beginnings in one of the most violent neighbourhoods in the Americas. He continues to live in Austin, Chicago and has promised to take a new approach to fighting crime. Mike Wendling has been to the mayor's neighbourhood to see how data science is being used to tackle the city's gun violence problem. Visitors to Western Australia's Rottnest Island have only recently begun to discover the island's hidden, tragic past. While many tourists come to the island to see the quokkas, cute marsupials with happy grins, more and more of them, like Emma Thomson, are learning about the historic mistreatment of its indigenous people, the Wadjemup. And in Sweden, Rob Crossan takes a walk around an area of Stockholm that has always fascinated him - and meets a homeless man who asks why anyone should be destitute in a country which is often celebrated as a showcase for the best in humanity.

I'll explain how that impacts you. Finally, a warning from America's utility providers — they say that we're replacing reliable energy with solar and wind, and that's putting some parts of America at high risk of blackouts. Later, we close out the podcast with my thoughts on the scandal emerging from Twitter.
