The Intelligence: Mandela’s vision, tested
Thirty years of democracy have not led to uniform prosperity, and nearly everyone disagrees about the equality of opportunity. How will the disenchantment manifest at the polls? How two small Texas towns became the patent-law centre of America (12:16). And a tribute to Eleanor Coppola, mastermind of the award-winning behind-the-scenes look at her husband’s epic, “Apocalypse Now” (19:26).

The Weekend Intelligence: Capturing UFOs
When a story about UFOs came across the desk of The Economist’s Michelle Hennessy, she was sceptical. A powerful cultural legacy of flying saucers and aliens is hard to ignore. But a recent flurry of interest from U.S defence agencies and NASA, stress the serious and scientific task of shedding light on what’s happening in the skies above.

The Intelligence: Our meeting with Macron
France’s president is known for pronouncements of grand scope with one eye toward history. But when our journalists visited him at his residence his assessment of the state of the world was bleak—a dark, prophetic call to arms. In this special episode, we ask whether his view is accurate, whether his proposed solutions would work and whether he is the person to enact them.

The Intelligence: The kids are alright, turns out
When you look around the world, and at a wider set of measures, Generation Z are far better off than the popular narrative would have you believe. We examine what India’s push to soup up its nukes means for the global arms race (09:30). And even as global fertility rates fall, sub-Saharan Africa is experiencing a relative baby boom (17:11).

The Intelligence: Going back to raid school
A dramatic overnight raid in New York City was just one sign that protests at American universities are set to continue—a clear historical echo in an already-fraught election year. We ask why a niche newspaper run by Japan’s communist party has so much influence (13:05). And a study of new books on loneliness reveals both the benefits and drawbacks of solitude (20:39).

What a double standard?
"The more Russians we kill right now, the fewer will be left for our children to kill." Is this is acceptable for you? So let`s make a mental exercise and change "russians" to "jews". Still acceptable? Ugh, that’s racist
Two small hills
Why does the podcast start with “your world”? Is Jason not from this world? At the end maybe it would be politer to insert the word “please” when asking for a review?
When the podcast started it seemed that certain parts of recent history were a complete mystery to Jason. The episode on the history of the troubles in Ireland was excruciating. Luckily he has improved.
Taiwan is not a country, it is part of China.
You have lowest knowledge of world politics. Shame on you. You’re the so-called “Fake media” as Trump said. Fake, Fake, Fake
