Check out host Bidemi Ologunde's new show: The Work Ethic Podcast, available on Spotify and Apple Podcasts.
In this episode, host Bidemi Ologunde connects the dots between history and headlines as Iran's unrest reaches a deadly crescendo, "unfiltered" AI collides with real-world law enforcement, record cocaine seizures expose the scale of global trafficking, and Greenland becomes an unexpected flashpoint in Arctic geopolitics. What happens when a government frames domestic protest as foreign sabotage? Who's responsible when a chatbot generates criminal or abusive content—its creator, the platform, or the user? Are mega drug busts a sign of enforcement success, or proof that trafficking networks are growing faster than states can respond? And why is a frozen island suddenly at the center of alliance politics and great-power competition?
