  • Division multiplication: the UAE’s foreign meddling
    Apr 23 2025

    The United Arab Emirates projects an image of level-headed calm in the Gulf. Its actions abroad, however, betray a far more divisive and ideological agenda. Japan’s recent rice crisis is in part about market reforms—but solving it is mostly about making farmers happier (10:29). And a romp through the linguistics (and culture-war triggers) of personal pronouns (17:08).

  • Cardinals in: choosing the next pope
    Apr 22 2025

    As the cardinals of the coming conclave prepare, our correspondent considers what will guide them. Which of the church’s challenges will the next pope be elected to address? In Mexico the discovery of a ranch littered with clothing adds disturbing evidence to a torrent of mysterious disappearances (9:24). And the wild goings-on at cinema screenings of “A Minecraft Movie” (15:55).

  • A man of the people: Pope Francis has died
    Apr 21 2025

    He shunned fancy vestments and paid surprise visits to prisons and hospitals: our obituaries editor reflects on the life of a reform-minded pontiff who preferred to be among his flock. High-protein snacks are on an absolute tear, and one explanation is linked to new weight-loss drugs (7:49). And the thorny business of nudging an employee towards resigning (14:31).

Business report

Like objective reports economics in different regions such as Europe, US and Asian countries. Don’t like politics as much.

As great as it is, still so many open questions…

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 is indispensable and irreplaceable.

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.

Great Content A Usual, Poor Editing

Minute 31 sees an abrupt editing error, cutting off mid sentence and a sudden shift in story.

A podcast made from western interest and perspective.

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.
