Story
Ivan Beckley is about to become a fully-qualified doctor in the UK. But he’s not convinced that healthcare works for everyone equally. In this series he uncovers one of the biggest and most insidious injustices in modern medicine. Fixing it could save thousands of lives every year. And yet it’s invisible, unless it directly affects you. Statistics show that black, indigenous and people of colour have worse health outcomes and die more often than white people, across many fields of medicine and diverse illnesses.

Story
Il podcast Sigonella 85 ripercorre le 51 ore drammatiche del dirottamento dell’Achille Lauro, “la nave più bella del mondo“, per poi concentrarsi su ciò che è avvenuto a Sigonella: il primo no detto da un Governo Italiano agli Americani, un rifiuto che ha scatenato la più profonda crisi Italia-USA mai verificatasi dal Dopoguerra, e che ha messo in discussione gli equilibri di tutto il mondo. Un contrasto diplomatico che ha rischiato di trasformarsi in uno scontro militare. Eppure, a sentire chi, quella sera, era presenta a Sigonella, le cose non sarebbero andate così come ci sono sempre state raccontate.

Welcome to the era of true marriages of convenience. Discover the reality of trading someone’s hand in marriage, such as an American heiress, in exchange for money, power, or political clout through compelling history lectures. Showcased in novels such as Edith Wharton’s The Age of Innocence and in present day pop culture through works like Downtown Abbey, the Gilded Age was an era of contradictions. Life on both sides of the Atlantic was grimy and glamorous, prosperous and impoverished, traditional and revolutionary.

Story
Forty years ago, following the appointment of their professors to the federal bench, a tiny group of conservative law students at Yale Law School worried that their ideas might disappear from intellectual discourse in this bastion of liberal thought. They set out to fill that void. But they ended up achieving way more than that. Over the next few decades, the Federalist Society became an integral tool in the larger conservative movement, with political, judicial, and social repercussions ending in the conservative capture of the Supreme Court and the election of Donald Trump to the presidency.

In First Eat, a confrontational, raw and highly personal exploration of food politics, power and body sovereignty, Nakkiah Lui asks how our meals would look different if First Nations people owned the land from which the food came. First Eat is about more than just food, it’s an aural feast for a rich future.
