    No Limits: Inside the Secret Cold War Between Russia and China

    While Putin and Xi shake hands for the cameras, a classified FSB document reveals what's really happening behind the "no limits" partnership — espionage, stolen military tech, and a territorial grudge over the Russian Far East that goes back to 1860. Chalin breaks down why Russia's most powerful ally might also be its most dangerous rival, plus a fresh Five Eyes warning on Chinese espionage and a few thoughts on Europe's continued Russian energy habit.

    The Strait of Hormuz: 23 Sailors. 5 Votes. A Hail of Bullets.

    An all-Filipino crew of 23 had been stranded at anchor in the Persian Gulf for more than a month. There was one way out. Through the Strait of Hormuz — through mines, through Iranian gunboats, through a waterway Iran had declared its hunting ground. They voted four times. The answer was no. On the fifth vote, the dominos fell. This is the story of 23 sailors caught in the middle of a war they had no part in — and the most important waterway in the world effectively closed while 20,000 seafarers waited, wondered, and prayed.

    Brothers to the Rescue: Operation Scorpion

    Welcome to Season 10 of The Delve. A new sound. A new format. And stories that put you inside the moment rather than just briefing you on it. We're starting where the news won't — with four names almost nobody remembers. Armando Alejandre Jr. Carlos Costa. Mario de la Peña. Pablo Morales. Four unarmed American civilians shot out of the sky over international waters by the Cuban Air Force on February 24th, 1996. Last week, Raúl Castro was indicted for their murders. This is the story of Brothers to the Rescue, Operation Scorpion, a spy who kissed his wife goodbye at 3am and turned up on Cuban television the next day — and thirty years of four families waiting for justice.

    Season 10 is coming. And it sounds different.

    Season 9 took The Delve to 75 countries. Season 10 takes it somewhere else entirely. New sound design. New format. Cinematic, story-driven episodes that will make you feel like you're inside the story — not just hearing about it. Brothers to the Rescue. The Strait of Hormuz. No Limits. Puerto Rico. These are the stories Season 10 is built on. We'll see you very soon.

    [BRIEFING] That's Not a Decolonization Conference

    As a junior at Allderdice High School in Pittsburgh, Chalin took an African Liberation Movements class at the University of Pittsburgh. It changed how he saw the world. This week, a conference called the World Decolonization Forum opens in Istanbul — organized by a Turkish think tank, partnered with Al Jazeera and a Chinese government-adjacent university, held in the former capital of the Ottoman Empire. Its agenda dedicates a roundtable exclusively to Palestine. The Uyghurs don't have one. The Kurds don't have one. The Rohingya don't have one. The Sahrawi — whose cause is being actively undermined by the conference's own funders — don't have one. The question this episode asks is simple: if decolonization is the cause, why are tens of millions of colonized people missing from the conversation?

    [BRIEFING] The Pope vs. The President: A 1,500-Year Pattern

    When Pope Leo XIV — the first American pope in history — entered a public dispute with the White House over the war in the Middle East, Chalin was surprised. When JD Vance, a Catholic convert, started citing Catholic just war doctrine to justify a war the head of the Catholic Church says doesn't qualify, he was floored. Then he found an article. Turns out popes have been going toe to toe with the most powerful leaders of their era for fifteen centuries. From Attila the Hun to Napoleon to Hitler — the pattern is remarkably consistent. And it doesn't tend to end well for the world leader.

    [BRIEFING] Lebanon, Israel... and France?

    Two French soldiers killed in Lebanon by Hezbollah sends Chalin down a rabbit hole. France has had troops in Lebanon since 1978. In those 48 years, Hezbollah went from a nascent militia to the most powerful non-state armed group in the Middle East. France was there for all of it. This is the story of a country that designed Lebanon, embedded its language and laws into its DNA, and then watched from the sidelines as everyone else tore it apart. With Hezbollah at its weakest in 40 years, Lebanon's government declaring its military actions illegal, and Israel and Lebanon talking for the first time since 1983 — the window is open. The question isn't whether France should leave. The question is whether France has the will to finally show up.

    Inside the Machine with Kerry Healey

    Chalin talks with former Massachusetts Lieutenant Governor and Forward Party Chairwoman Kerry Healey about what it actually looks like to govern from inside a broken system — and why she finally walked away from the Republican Party on January 7th. They dig into how primaries have been engineered to reward extremism, why 50,000 elected offices in America are sitting completely empty, and what the Forward Party is building to fill the gap. Plus: what John Adams understood about democracy in 1780 that we've somehow managed to forget.
