TfL’s new bus shelters, Apple & Google app store shake-up, and gene-edited moths, plus Helldivers 2 update

TfL starts trialling new bus shelter designs across the city — brighter, safer, and hopefully less bleak in the rain. Then the UK competition regulator gets Apple and Google to commit to fairer app store rules, before we head to Exeter where scientists are gene-editing wax moths to speed up infection research and tackle antimicrobial resistance. After the break: an ancient fossil find that rewrites early plant-eaters on land, a fresh Helldivers 2 update, and a quick word for iPhone owners if iOS is acting up. More at standard.co.uk.

Dr Jim Fadiman: The 'Father of Microdosing' on Psychedelics’ Second Act

For this episode of Brave New World, Evgeny is joined by psychologist, author, and researcher Dr Jim Fadiman, a central figure in the modern understanding of psychedelics, who also goes by the “father of microdosing”. Drawing on decades of research and thousands of user reports, the conversation traces the history of psychedelics - from early scientific study in the 1950s and 60s, through prohibition, to today’s renewed interest in clinical and psychiatric settings. Jim discusses why most formal research has focused on high doses, how observational reports have shaped microdosing research, where evidence is strongest and still emerging. Evgeny and Jim look ahead to the future of psychedelics in medicine, the balance between scientific caution and public interest, and what a first step might look like for someone curious but sceptical. This episode was produced by Message Heard and The Standard. Producer: Florence de Schlichting Production Coordinator: James Cox Production Manager: Kirsty McLean Video Editor: Nani Wenani The Standard team: Joe Bromley Will Rogers-Coltman Hosted on Acast.

How much is the royal family worth?

Over the weekend, suspicious photographs of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor with an unnamed woman surfaced among the latest batch of the Epstein files. While King Charles’ decision to strip Andrew of his titles was met with widespread approval, it also sparked questions over the Royals’ living arrangements - and inevitably, their finances. In this episode, host Tamara Kormornick speaks to Chris Blackhurst, strategic communications advisor and former editor of The Independent, who recently wrote a piece for the Standard on the staggering wealth of the crown. The conversation explores how the Royal Family might negotiate this tricky period from a PR perspective, and whether it’s possible for them to rebuild the public’s trust and admiration.
