In a week where:

2. A huge ancient lost city is found in East Ecuador.
3. US, UK lead airstrikes against Houthi rebel sites in Yemen.
4. Taiwan elects Lai Ching-te, who rejects China’s territorial claim, as president.
5. People in at least 121 cities in 45 countries across participated in pro-Palestine rallies.

In Health: (8:27) The NHS needs saving, it's been needed saving for a while now. Whilst we can look to the government & their bad faith, we also need to look at Big Pharma. (Article By Nick Dearden)

In the 1st of two Society segments: (21:48) It's convenient to have long gone voices that can steer us through something going down today. One of those voices in Martin Luther King Jr is one of the best, especially when it comes to morality. (Article By Hajar Yazdiha) (Also spin my interview w/ Dr. Yazdiha here!)

In the 2nd Society segment: (34:12) QUICK, PUT THE ALARM ON! WE HAVE A NEW MORAL PANIC CREATED BY THE FAR-RIGHT NUTJOBS! The new term you've just heard now and is already poisoned: DEI - Diversity, Equity & Inclusion. (Article By Miles Klee)

Lastly, in Life: (54:07) It's time for another major push to get compensation for the thousands of people affected by the Windrush Scandal, as several notable figures help kick off the new #Justice4Windrush campaign. (Article via The Voice)
