The Weekend Intelligence: No short-cuts
Mass hair cutting has become a ritual for feminists in South Korea. When a woman is attacked for her appearance they protest by chopping off their locks. It is a bold move in a culture obsessed with rigid ideas of beauty.
Over the past decade, Korean feminists have pushed for more protections for women, but recently this activism has faced a backlash from some men, who find support at the highest levels of the government.
Moeka Iida travels to South Korea to explore this anti-feminist wave and find out why both sides are entrenched in their views.

Argentina turning? Milei’s surprising political success
Since his election last year, President Javier Milei has enjoyed some economic and political wins in Argentina. But his toughest fight is yet to come. On Britain’s general election trail, our correspondent found voters less keen on the prospect of a Labour victory than on punishing the Conservative party at the polls (10:00). And remembering Birubala Rabha, who campaigned against witch-hunting in India (18.35).

Empire of the sun: a solar power revolution
No energy source has ever increased as fast as solar photovoltaics. The technology will transform humanity’s energy consumption–even when the sun doesn’t shine. Many people associate champagne with success but wine collectors often shun it. Now global sales are fizzing (10:51). And many chief executives are early birds, not night owls. Does it really pay to be up with the larks (18:32)?

French fried: will the election lead to chaos?
Both the left and right are likely to do well in France’s upcoming parliamentary poll, with President Emmanuel Macron’s party squeezed in the middle. The snap election could leave the country in chaos. In America, recreational use of weed is now commonplace, but what impact does it have on users’ wellbeing (10:06)?

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
