ROBIN ANDERSEN: US Media Coverage of Israel's Genocide in Gaza

July 22, 2026

How will future generations look back at the media reporting of Gaza in the years since October 7? In her new book, The Complicit Lens - US Media Coverage of Israel’s Genocide in Gaza - Professor Robin Andersen outlines a damning case against many of the most recognisable mainstream outlets. It’s a longer episode than normal, but because I believe the topic warranted the time.  Hosted on Acast.

DAN LAWTON: Northern Ireland, The Troubles, and the Extraordinary Case of Kevin Barry Artt

July 15, 2026

I have been learning about The Troubles for as long as I can remember. Somehow, I had never come across the extraordinary story of Kevin Barry Artt, documented in Dan Lawton's book, 'Above The Ground'. Imagine being arrested for a murder you never carried out, only to escape to California and spend years looking over your shoulder, before the most unlikely witness to the crime came forward to help prove your innocence. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

KOJO KORAM: The Next Fix, The Winners & Losers in the Future of Drugs

June 24, 2026

We live in a world today where millions of people are serving time for drug offences, while others are making the most the now billion dollar cannabis industry. I had a wonderful chat recently with Kojo Koram about this shift from mass criminalisation, to mass commercialisation. His new book, 'The Next Fix', explores the winners and losers in the future of drugs and raises so many interesting questions for our society to ponder. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
