The problem with climate alarmismJustin Rowlatt speaks to US Energy Secretary Chris Wright about his belief that the threat from climate change is exaggerated. It's a view shared by the American President, Donald Trump, and one that has seen subsidies to the renewable energy industry, worth billions of dollars, cut by the US administration. Secretary Wright is highly critical of the transition to sustainable power, describing it as unsuccessful and costly, and instead believes the solution to emissions lies in nuclear fusion. He has drawn the wrath of the international scientific community with his controversial challenge to climate orthodoxy, including his claims that there have been no increases in extreme weather events across the globe. Chris Wright was nominated by President Trump as his Energy Secretary in November 2024 after a career in the energy industry and is an outspoken opponent of global efforts to combat the impact of greenhouse gas emissions. The US President has described climate change “as the greatest con job ever perpetrated on the world.” Thank you to Justin Rowlatt, Miho Tanaka and James Bryant for their help in making this programme.

Israel agrees to the US President's Gaza peace deal, warning Hamas it must accept the 20 point plan, involving a hostage and prisoner swap but no certain path to statehood.

Today Donald Trump's newly unveiled peace plan for Gaza has already been hailed by some world leaders as the best chance to end Israel's war. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu threw his support behind it at a joint press conference with the US President - and it has been backed by a number of Arab nations including Qatar and Egypt. But is it a viable solution to ending the conflict? David Wearing, an Assistant Professor in International Relations at the University of Sussex, and expert on UK foreign relations in the Middle East, joins us with the latest. And in part two, The Standard's Business Editor Jonathan Prynn is here to discuss the revival of London's fine dining scene. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Yesterday, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netenyahu was greeted by United States President Donald Trump at the White House to discuss many things, including ending the war in Gaza. After a lengthy talk, the leaders announced to the press the conditions they had come up with to offer to Hamas, despite no Palestinian or Hamas officials being present. The proposal calls for an immediate ceasefire, a swap of hostages held by Hamas and prisoners held by Israel, a staged Israeli withdrawal from the Palestinian territory and demands that Hamas immediately disarms and renounces any governance in the strip. The US President's plan would also establish a temporary governing board that would be headed by Trump himself and would include former United Kingdom Prime Minister Tony Blair. Trump then announced Hamas had three or four days to respond to the deal, and Netenyahu promised that if Hamas were to reject the deal, he would “finish the job” in Gaza. To talk about the peace proposal led by Donald Trump and if it brings the war in Gaza any closer to ending, Producer Max spoke to co-chair of the Palestine Solidarity Network Aotearoa John Minto and retired professor in international relations Stephen Hoadley.

The Trade Minister says uncertainty around Donald Trump's tariffs is most concerning, following threats he'll impose a 100% tariff on all movies made outside the US. The US President didn't confirm when or how it could be enacted in a post on social media, which followed an initial threat on foreign-produced movies in May. Todd McClay told Mike Hosking he was in Malaysia last week with other trade ministers, who are all dealing with the rolling wall of announcements with no clarity. He says Trump's social media announcements are creating a lot of uncertainty, and Hollywood won't know what's going on. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

While it looks to be a solid plan at first glance, there's at least one major flaw in Donald Trump's proposed peace plan for Gaza. If agreed to by Hamas, the war would end immediately, with Israeli troops withdrawing and Hamas releasing all hostages. No one will be forced to leave Gaza, and Israel won't occupy or annex the territory. The US President would lead a new transitional government, made up of Palestinians and experts like former British Prime Minister Tony Blair. But International Geopolitical Analyst Geoffrey Miller told Kerre Woodham that along with the fact that only Israel has been involved in the negotiation of this deal, there is no timeline outlined. He says the deal mentions providing a credible pathway to Palestinian self-determination and statehood, but there's no timeline as to how it would be achieved, so it makes you wonder if it's been added in to make it sound good.

This week on Battleground, Saul David and Roger Moorhouse dissect a week of Russian provocation and a dramatic political shift from the US President. Is Putin's aggressive brinkmanship about to backfire? After three MiG-31 jets violated Estonian airspace and a major drone incursion grounded flights at Copenhagen Airport, NATO allies are drawing a line in the sand. The hosts break down the fallout from Estonia invoking Article 4, the emergency UN Security Council session, and the stark pledge from the Polish foreign minister to shoot down future invaders of NATO skies. Meanwhile, US President Donald Trump executes a stunning U-turn, branding Russia a 'paper tiger' and urging Ukraine to reclaim all its lost territory—a complete reversal of his previous calls for territorial concession. Also in this episode: Kremlin Nepotism: We examine reports that an increasingly paranoid Putin has appointed his cousin, Anna Tsivileva, as a deputy defence minister to root out corruption and disloyalty in the defence ministry. Nuclear Sabre-Rattling: Putin attempts to "throw Trump a bone" with a conditional offer to adhere to the New START treaty for one year following its 2026 expiry. Listeners' Questions: We tackle your queries on: the West's slow adoption of drone warfare lessons; the long-term demographic fallout of the war on both Russia and Ukraine: and more.

What should we make of Canada's formal recognition of Palestinian statehood at the UN? What happened to the conditions the government had originally tied to this recognition? Andrew believes the Carney administration is both trying to send a signal to the ascending Israeli right and join a broader coalition with the other countries - Britain, the UK, and Australia - who lead the way on this initiative. But given the fact that Mahmoud Abbas has presided over a corrupt PA for over 20 years, without elections, is this recognition of statehood simply kabuki theatre? And how is Canada's statement on this issue affecting how activists protest here in Canada? In the second half of the show Rudyard and Andrew turn to the ongoing saga that is the Trump presidency and his public threat this week to go after political enemies. But America's descent into authoritarianism cannot be blamed solely on the US President; there are a number of incredibly powerful companies, individuals, and advisors whose support of Trump has been rewarded with a concentration of wealth and political power that is handicapping the country's ability to function as a healthy democracy.

Autism New Zealand says it has serious concerns around what it calls "misleading claims" made by Donald Trump and his administration around the link between autism and paracetamol. The US President made the highly-contentious claims in an Oval Office address this morning, announcing the US Food and Drug Administration will be notifying physicians that the use of paracetamol during pregnancy "can be associated with a very increased risk of autism". US correspondent Todd Zwillich spoke to Lisa Owen.

In a bombshell statement sending shockwaves around the world, the US President has claimed paracetamol use in pregnant women is linked to autism.

On Friday President Donald Trump took his most extensive step yet toward overhauling the US legal migration system, with a pair of proclamations that explicitly favor the wealthiest of the world's prospective expat workers. The US President slapped a $100,000 application fee on the widely used H-1B visa program, a move that would drastically increase the cost of visas heavily coveted by some of America's largest companies seeking to bring in skilled workers from abroad.

The President visited the King. So, there are “royal protocol” issues. How to address a King? Do you reach out to shake his hand or wait for him to shake yours? What are the “no-nos”? Apparently, US Presidents don't have a good track record with such things.Today's passage raises the same concerns. How do we talk to our God? What may we say? What should we say? Are there tricks to assure we receive what we ask for? Should we recite this prayer, or is it more like an outline? What are the “no-nos”? Sunday, we'll find out how Jesus's answer to a simple question changes everything. Come, let's learn together how to pray!

As we continue to watch the unfolding debate on free speech, following the assignation of Charlie Kirk, this week we turn our attention to the second state visit made by the US President to King Charles the III and the special relationship shared between the US and the UK. But, before we look at this, we will reflect on the purpose of Bible prophecy and why these things interest us.

OA1191 - In today's Rapid Response Friday, we examine some of the legal questions raised as the Trump administration throws as much political capital as possible behind the recent assassination of Turning Point USA leader Charlie Kirk and their implications for the future of the First Amendment rights they claim to revere Kirk for championing. Is there any legal basis for Trump to designate a “domestic terrorist group,” let alone one that even his FBI has previously admitted doesn't exist? Matt looks back to the first Trump term to try to understand what is coming. We then examine how the states are getting around the FDA's limitations on the COVID-19 vaccine and the latest in Trump's litigious war on the media before closing things out with a fun footnote on the only other time in US history that a US President has sued someone for libel. Independent media matters more than ever now that mainstream media is compromised beyond any ability to report the truth about this administration.

As you know I seldom talk about current events on this podcast. But a few years ago I did address one. It was the 2022 Oscars where actor Will Smith slapped comedian Chris Rock. I did not see it and didn't pay much attention, but then I saw a public statement made by Andy Andrews that caught my attention. I've known Andy for some time and had him on the podcast here three or so times and been a guest on his podcast. I find him sober minded and insightful, so when he addressed the event, I took it as an opportunity to discuss the concept of our actions vs our intent. More on that in a minute. If you don't know Andy, he is a multiple New York Times best seller with his book, The Traveler's Gift selling many millions. He's a highly sought for and highly paid speaker, he's spoken for, by request, four different US Presidents. The New York Times cited Andy as “someone who has quietly become one of the most influential people in America.” I know Andy as someone many big influencers turn to for wisdom. He's a sage of life changing lessons. So here we talk about the Oscar incident. I for one, feel that someone's motive and intent behind an action should weigh in and be considered, and failure to do so is negligent. But regardless, many people take our actions at face value and the can have grave consequences. This is our discussion in this podcast. At the time this originally aired, Andy was launching a community called Wisdom Harbour, and  I wanted to have a frank discussion on what he saw as primary cultural needs and from a business interest, why he created the Wisdom Harbour community in response to it. You'll hear much of his answer is around cultural literacy, but I'm going to take you behind the scenes on why he crafted it the way he did. Find Andy anywhere, just search for Andy Andrews.

The US President's state visit to the UK is marked by royal pageantry, political tension, and public protest. But what could the UK gain from it?

President Donald Trump is in town, so it's back to Windsor Castle for our Ed Balls! A podcast recording the morning after a lavish state banquet? Not a problem, it's all par for the course for Ed, who has apparently been catching up on Downton Abbey in preparation. He brought George Osborne up to speed on the events of the evening; who sat where and did he get to say hello to the 47th president? It's hard to believe the US President's visit could be considered a reprieve for Prime Minister Keir Starmer after a grueling two weeks back from summer recess. Soon after Angela Rayner made her sudden, tax-enforced exit the government faced its next drama: US Ambassador Peter Mandelson and his long, email-documented friendship with sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. A deputy leadership contest, scrutiny over Mandelson vetting process and - in recent days - questions over whether Andy Burnham is gunning for Starmer's job… It should be catnip for leader of the Tories, Kemi Badenoch - except Danny Kruger's gone and spoiled it by defecting to Reform! Meanwhile, the Federal Reserve has cut rates for the first time this year - while the Bank of England is holding firm at 4%. Ed and George take stock of the global economic position and what's next for the bond market after its moment of tumult earlier this month … To get episodes early and ad-free, join Political Currency Gold or the Kitchen Cabinet:

Donald Trump’s war on the media has just escalated, with the Jimmy Kimmel Show cancelled after the late-night night host made comments about the US President’s reaction to the assassination of Charlie Kirk.

Donald Trump has announced that he will sue the New York Times for 15 billion dollars for alleged defamation.

As Donald Trump arrives in the UK for his second state visit, we examine how women feel about the US President now and how the Epstein scandal might feature in discussions as Keir Starmer faces more pressure about how he handled Lord Mandelson's resignation. Nuala McGovern speaks to Katy Balls from The Times, women's campaigner Alix Valentine and Mischa Smith, the news and features editor for Marie Claire UK. How well does the law serve women? That's a question Nuala puts to Brenda Marjorie Hale, The Rt. Hon. The Baroness Hale of Richmond, DBE a former judge who served as the first female President of the Supreme Court. She was the first woman and the youngest person to be appointed to the Law Commission, where she led the work on what became the 1989 Children Act. In 2019 she announced the Supreme Court's judgement that the prorogation of Parliament was ‘unlawful, void and of no effect'. She discusses her new book, With the Law on Our Side – How the law works for everyone and how we can make it work better. Hairdresser Emiola Lanlehin is the co-founder of Crowned with Care which is an event providing free hairstyling and barbering services for looked after black and mixed heritage children and teenagers. Her mother nominated her in the volunteer category of the Make a Difference Award – saying it was ‘for her courage, faith, commitment and determination to find a way of serving an underserved community'. Many children in care, especially those with Afro-textured hair, struggle to access proper grooming and cultural hair care. Emiola explains how free hair care can help black and mixed heritage children feel valued and celebrated. What are the issues that shape the lives of teenagers today? What are their concerns, pressures and influences? For their ‘Teen25 Summit', BBC5 Live in collaboration with BBC Bitesize have conducted a survey of over 2,000 13–18-year-olds, and the data reveals some worrying statistics for the mental health of teenage girls today. Reporter Kristian Johnson talks us through the figures. And Professor Sonia Livingstone from the LSE analyses and gives advice to parents.

Tommy Meskill, London Correspondent, on the State visit of Donald Trump to the United Kingdom.

This week, two seemingly separate events tell a single, troubling story about Britain's place in the modern world. First, a massive, 100,000-strong far-right rally, supported by American funding, took to the streets of London. Now, Keir Starmer's government is preparing to roll out the red carpet for an unprecedented second state visit for Donald Trump.These are not separate events. They are two acts in the same play.In this episode, Nick Shepley argues that Britain is preparing to advertise its own weakness and vassalage on the world stage. We explore the deep connections between the rise of the externally-funded far-right and the impending arrival of a US President who has built his career on identifying and exploiting the weakest mark.In this analysis, we discuss:The Unprecedented Visit: Why is a British government offering an honour to Donald Trump that no American President in history has ever received before?Trump's Worldview: Understanding Trump's motives not through the lens of traditional diplomacy, but through the brutal logic of a mob-associated property developer looking for the easiest shakedown.The Post-Brexit Reality: How Britain, adrift from its traditional European partners, has become the perfect soft target for American economic and political domination.The Historical Parallel: We look at how great powers in decline often find themselves in these positions of weakness, forced to perform loyalty to a new global hegemon. This isn't a "Special Relationship"; it's a client relationship.A Grim Prediction: Why this visit is set up to be a public humiliation, and why the British government may have no choice but to accept it.▸ Go Deeper: Visit our website at www.explaininghistory.org for articles and detailed explorations of the topics discussed.▸ Join the Conversation: Our community of history enthusiasts discusses episodes, shares ideas, and continues the conversation.

Nairobi native Ibrahim Lwingi is scared for his life and he's not the only one. Decisions being made in the White House, halfway across the world, threaten to turn his world on its head. The proposed cuts to the US President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief or PEPFAR by the Trump administration had many in the international community rattled. CBC's James Chaarani met with Ibrahim Lwingi — and others like him — in Nairobi, Kenya for this documentary, “Everything to Lose.”

Robert concludes the story of Lee Atwater by discussing his greatest success and then his sickness and fall from power and influence.
