Please join me for an important conversation with my special guest, former Zambian Ambassador and Tonse-Pamodza Alliance spokesperson Emmanuel Mwamba, as we examine the fallout from Zambia’s recent disputed presidential election.

We’ll also look at the growing concerns over political institutions, opposition rights, electoral credibility and the future of democratic competition in Zambia — and ask the larger question: Where does Zambia go from here?

Please join me and my special guest, UK Green Party member and environmentalist Wanja Kaufmann, as we discuss the increasingly important intersection of the environment and politics. From climate change and energy policy to conservation, economic growth, and the choices governments make about our future, environmental issues are becoming impossible to separate from politics. How do we balance environmental responsibility with economic realities? Are governments doing enough? And what role should environmental concerns play in shaping the political decisions we make today?

Please join me and my special guest, Ukraine Government Advisor and Political Analyst Maksym Turkevych, as we examine the growing debate over whether Ukraine should hold elections while the war with Russia continues.

Can Ukraine realistically hold free and fair elections during wartime? Would an election strengthen Ukrainian democracy—or risk dividing the country at a critical moment? And if Ukrainians do eventually go to the polls, what could the political future of Ukraine look like?

Please join me and my special guest, Middle East expert Saul Sadka, for a timely discussion about what could be a pivotal moment in the long-running conflict in Gaza.

Hamas has agreed to a framework for relinquishing its weapons and transferring control, potentially opening the door to reconstruction and a new political future for Gaza. But Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has rejected the latest roadmap, insisting that Israel will not withdraw its forces until Hamas has been fully disarmed—a disagreement that has created a significant test of the relationship between Trump and Netanyahu.
