+ <title>472. Is Trump’s Peace 'Plan’ Forced Surrender for Ukraine?</title>
+ <description>Who is really behind the White House 'peace plan' for Ukraine: Trump or Putin? Why isn't Europe taking the threat from Russia more seriously, and doing more to protect Ukraine? How does all of this relate to Russia’s hybrid warfare and the ex-leader of Reform UK in Wales taking pro-Russia bribes?

+ <title>471. Rory Stewart: How the Government Tried to Silence Me on Lockdowns</title>
+ <description>Why did Boris Johnson and the British government not only fail to listen, but actively try to suppress early warnings about the pandemic? How did groupthink and optimism bias cripple the UK's response? And is Britain's government structurally too slow to handle future threats like AI and Putin's increasing aggression in Europe?

With arguments breaking out amongst his MAGA fanbase, are we witnessing the splintering of Trump's electoral coalition?

+ <title>467. The Mamdani Method Explained: Could It Shock Britain?</title>
+ <description>How did a thirty four-year old democratic socialist win over New York, and can he actually follow through on his promise to transform the city? What do Zohran Mamdani, Zack Polanski, and Nigel Farage all get right? Why did Donald Trump meet the President of Syria, Ahmed al-Sharaa, and could his bulldozer approach to geopolitics actually be helping Syria?

+ <title>461. Question Time: The Tel Aviv Fan Ban & Japan’s New Thatcher</title>
+ <description>This episode has been edited to remove a discussion on the China spy case. The Rest Is Politics wishes to make clear that Mr Christopher Cash and Mr Christopher Berry were found not guilty of gathering and providing information prejudicial to the safety and interests of the state under the Official Secrets Act 1911 and have always maintained their innocence, categorically denying knowingly spying for China.
+
+
+
+Was banning Maccabi Tel Aviv fans the right call? What does Prince Andrew’s latest downfall reveal about the royals? What will Sanae Takaichi's premiership mean for Japan?

+ <title>The Gun Lobby Responsible for Trump: Journey Through Time</title>
+ <description>Alastair is joined by historian and co-host of Goalhanger’s Journey Through Time, Sarah Churchwell, to discuss their new series on the History of The National Rifle Association.
+
+
+
+How did The National Rifle Association go from a sportsman’s organisation set up to improve marksmanship following the civil war to a for-profit group fighting gun regulation? Why did a convicted killer become one of the most influential figures in modern gun politics? How did the NRA gain so much control over the American President and the Supreme Court?

+ <title>337. Trump Returns: What Now?</title>
+ <description>Did Trump win it or did the Democrats blow it? What are the implications of a second Trump presidency for America and the rest of the world? Has rightwing populism delivered a fatal blow to liberal democracy?
+
+Catchup on the last of our three special US election livestreams. Alastair is joined by Dominic Sandbrook from The Rest Is History, Marina Hyde from The Rest Is Entertainment, and Anthony Scaramucci from The Rest Is Politics US, to unpack Trump’s historic comeback victory and grapple with what it means for all of us.

How do Rory and Alastair square their beliefs with what people want to hear? And, was Starmer right to suspend seven MPs over the two child benefit cap?

+ <title>Introducing... The Rest Is Money</title>
+ <description>Does money really make the world go round? Economics, business and finance have long been subjects we leave to the stockbrokers, hedge fund managers and business school professors who spend their lives obsessing over them - but there’s no reason we shouldn’t discuss ‘money’ in the same way we talk about sport and TV.
+
+In their new podcast, The Rest Is Money, business correspondent and broadcaster Steph McGovern is joined by old friend and economics expert Robert Peston to explore everything we need to know about the issues that affect us in our everyday lives: how will AI affect your job and our economic prospects? Are we stuck with higher inflation for years to come? Why are wealthy nations like Saudi Arabia buying up sport?

+ <title>Introducing Empire</title>
+ <description>Today's feed drop features historian and friend of the show William Dalrymple discussing our new sister podcast, Empire, which he hosts alongside broadcaster Anita Anand.

+How do empires rise? Why do they fall? And how have they shaped the world around us today?
+
+This new show explores the stories, personalities and events of empire over the course of history.
+
+The first series looks at the British in India, covering The East India Company, the Raj, Gandhi, Independence and Partition.
+
+In the opening episode, William and Anita discuss the rise of The East India Company, exploring how a small corporation with only a handful of employees came to rule India. The episode begins with the birth of the Company in Tudor England and culminates with Robert Clive and the Battle of Plassey.

+ <title>15. Question Time: Hong Kong handover, human rights, and Tintin</title>
+ <description>Welcome to the first ever episode of 'TRIP: Question Time'!
+
+During our Question Time pods, Rory and Alastair will attempt to answer even more of the fantastic listener questions we get each week.
+
+While the Wednesday pod will still dig into the main issues of the day, TRIP QT allows Alastair and Rory to debate wide-ranging topics and recount stories from their lives in politics and beyond.
+
+This week the pod covers prisons, how to talk to totalitarian leaders about human rights, Alastair's memories of the Hong Kong handover, how Tintin inspired Rory, Alastair's most right wing view, Rory's most left wing view, and how your upbringing can shape your political outlook.

Also, reaction to populist leaders Orban and Le Pen gaining support in Europe, the ethics of working with questionable regimes, and what first attracted Rory Stewart to the Conservative Party?

+ <description>Welcome to the second episode of The Rest Is Politics with Rory Stewart and Alastair Campbell!
+
+With Ukrainian refugees struggling to claim asylum in the UK, why aren't the British government's actions matching up to its rhetoric? Rory and Alastair discuss the importance of personal relationships in matters of state, and question whether the current honours system is fit for purpose after former education and defence secretary Gavin Williamson was given a knighthood.
