Scott Lucas: Trump 2.0 Fueled The Rise of European Far-Right Groups, Benefiting Russia! (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Professor Scott Lucas joins us to discuss the critical situation facing European Union politics and analyse how Trump 2.0 has emboldened populist factions. The rise of the far right across Europe is not simply a story about voters suddenly embracing extremism. It is a story about frustration with stagnant economies, pressure on public services, immigration, cultural change, and the growing belief that mainstream political parties no longer listen. Scott and I acknowledge the real concerns about
Jeffrey Funk: No, AI Will Not "End Humanity" – It's a Distraction from Real AI Dangers (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this conversation, Dr Jeffrey Funk returns to challenge the growing narrative that artificial intelligence will destroy humanity. Spoiler alert: it won’t! Our central argument is not that AI is harmless, but that the loudest “AI will kill everyone” claims often distract from more immediate problems: weak business economics, inflated promises, poor oversight, and the misuse of AI by powerful organisations.

Read excerpt
Ann Pettifor, one of the world's most celebrated economists, explains why the imminent AI bubble crash threatens to harm ordinary people, who will pay the highest price – far more than the tech investors. We analyse the parallels between the current hype cycle and past disasters like the dot-com era and the subprime mortgage crisis. By examining how financial instability spreads, we clarify why this latest market volatility is not just a tech problem, but a systemic risk that endangers the livel
Trillions of Dollars Spent on Fake AI Hype and Useless Data Centres | Dr Jeffrey Funk (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Dr Jeffrey Funk joins us to analyse the constant stream of corporate announcements that define the current tech market. We look past the noise to understand why the sheer volume of these claims is struggling to translate into sustainable growth or actual profits. By examining the mechanics of the current AI bubble, we expose the disconnect between projected potential and the financial outcomes we are seeing today. Understanding these shifts is essential for anyone trying to navigate the volatili
