  • California screaming: National Guard in LA

    California screaming: National Guard in LA
    Jun 9 2025

    Our correspondent reports from LA, where Donald Trump’s decision to send in troops risks inciting further antagonism. The argument is now about far more than immigration. A visual investigation confirms that Myanmar’s junta is still bombing civilian settlements after the deadly earthquake, despite agreeing to a humanitarian ceasefire (9:25). And should kids play contact sports (14:32)?

    Billion dollar babies: Trump-Musk spat
    Jun 6 2025

    What happens when the world’s most powerful man falls out with its richest? Our correspondent analyses where the Trump-Musk brawl leaves the relationship between MAGA and tech.

    Count their losses: Russia casualties hit 1m
    Jun 5 2025

    As the number of Russian dead and injured in Ukraine reaches a grim milestone, what do these losses signify about Vladimir Putin’s strategy? Though misinformation is growing, the armies of fact-checkers are shrinking, forcing them to assess which lies may do the most harm (7:42). And why cheese rolling could become a protected item of British heritage (14:38).

A really outstandingly produced podcast series that will appeal to any China watcher or anyone interested in the world’s most populous country as we enter an even more turbulent middle part of the 2020s.

Babbage, from The Economist, exemplifies the thoughtful weekly selection, and deep but brief treatment, of important (but not necessarily headline pounding) science topics. Check out 2020's detailed treatment of viruses and how they have influenced evolution and history through the millennia.

Babbage is indispensable and irreplaceable.

It is professionally made but lacks objectivity when the subject matter involves western interests. It is extremely western centric and isn’t much useful for someone from the rest of the world.

A podcast made from western interest and perspective.
