    The politics of water: Iraq and Turkey

    Two rivers helped build civilisation. Now they are at the centre of a geopolitical struggle that casts a shadow over the future of the Middle East. For centuries, the Tigris and Euphrates carried goods, armies and ideas, shaping some of history's greatest empires. But today, a toxic mix of climate change, outdated irrigation methods and conflicting national interests is pushing these rivers to the brink. As Turkey’s vast dam projects reduce downstream flows, Iraq is being forced into negotiations that go far beyond water, touching on security cooperation, trade routes and energy. The Global Jigsaw tells the story of how water became a geopolitical bargaining chip.

    Dark Matters - EP07 - The Lizard Man of Scape Ore Swamp

    In the summer of 1988, a small South Carolina town found itself chasing a seven foot, scaled creature with red eyes, and the strangest part of the whole case is that the only real evidence anyone ever produced was a terrified seventeen year old boy who passed a police polygraph test. This episode of Dark Matters heads to Scape Ore Swamp, near Bishopville in Lee County, for the story of the Lizard Man. After a couple's car turned up mysteriously damaged in the swamp overnight, Christopher Davis reported being chased by something out of the trees while changing a flat tyre on a lonely back road. Deputies cast three toed footprints, a cryptid researcher blamed Bigfoot, a fake evidence claim collapsed within days, and the story went national, turning a quiet cotton town into a media circus complete with lizard themed merchandise and a million dollar reward nobody ever claimed. More than three decades on, the case is still unresolved, tangled up with a dying sheriff who never stopped believing, a witness whose life was upended by that one night, and a local rumour involving a butterbean farmer that's never been confirmed or denied. Hear the full story, and the competing theories behind it, in this episode of Dark Matters. Enjoyed the episode? Subscribe, leave us a rating, and drop a review.

    Episode 1 Tethered Goat

    Four miles south of Omagh, at the height of the Troubles, the SAS launched an ambush against an IRA unit suspected of carrying out a series of deadly attacks on soldiers. In the first episode of SAS: The Shadow War, The Independent’s world affairs editor Sam Kiley meets ‘George’, the former SAS ground commander who led the operation at Drumnakilly. He reveals how the mission unfolded – and the decisions made when it mattered most. But decades on, the battle over what happened in Northern Ireland is far from over. As former soldiers face renewed legal scrutiny, the episode asks: where does the duty to protect lives end, and the demand for accountability begin?

    Episode 2 Heroes and Villains

    Two SAS operations, eight years apart, produced radically different legacies. The first made the regiment national heroes. The second sparked decades of controversy. In 1980, the world watched as the SAS stormed the Iranian Embassy in London to free its hostages. The daring assault brought the secretive regiment into the public eye – but what did that exposure cost? Eight years later, an SAS operation against suspected IRA bombers in Gibraltar ended with three people dead and questions that would haunt the regiment for decades. In this episode of SAS: The Shadow War, The Independent’s world affairs editor Sam Kiley revisits both missions and explores how the same regiment came to be celebrated for one operation and scrutinised for the other.

    How Elite Societies Secretly Control You - Mark Booth

    I asked how secret societies manipulate you. The answer was much closer to home… Get Mark's books: - The Secret History of the World: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Illustrated-Secret-History-World/dp/1468315668/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0 - The Secret History of the Universe: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Secret-History-Universe-Ancient-Wisdom/dp/1918107017/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0 --- Freemasons, secret rituals and powerful men behind closed doors. Mark Booth, also known as Jonathan Black, joins Andrew Gold on Heretics to explore the hidden teachings of secret societies—and the unsettling claims made about their influence. Mark describes ancient mystery schools where revealing secrets allegedly meant death, terrifying initiation ceremonies, and practices he believes can give people power over others. Yet he insists Freemasonry is fundamentally benevolent. I challenge him on what happens when powerful people decide they know what’s best for humanity. Then the conversation gets stranger: scientists practising the occult, a table that isn’t what it seems, the possibility of living in a simulation, consciousness after death, and intelligence that could be older than humanity itself. Mark is the author of The Secret History of the World and The Secret History of the Universe. Which claim surprised you most—and which would you challenge? Let me know below, and subscribe to Heretics for more conversations that question what we think we know. #Freemasons #SecretSocieties #MarkBooth #AndrewGold #Heretics #Consciousness Learn more about your ad choices.
