The journalists behind our new show Radical Thinking wanted audiences to experience a guest’s thought processes rather than simply hear their hot takes. But achieving this required a very different approach
It doesn’t often happen during interviews. Something inside the person starts shifting. Fresh ideas get forged in real time.
Our new podcast series Radical Thinking with Aditya Chakrabortty has already managed to generate many such moments. Each time it happens, you can almost hear the expression changing on the guest’s face. At one point, I switched from audio to video to witness the change and then watch as they refined their thoughts.

Young people want to know more about the world of work. A survey of 2,000 13- to 18-year-olds for BBC Radio 5 Live found that they wanted to learn about applying for jobs (42%), managing stress (39%) and developing their communication skills (38%).
It’s sensible stuff – dispiritingly so. Shouldn’t they be drinking BuzzBallz at bus stops? If someone had asked 13-year-old me what I wanted to know about work, I would have stared blankly, or asked: “What job will let me touch Mark Shaw (of obscure 80s band Then Jerico)?” Look at what their French peers are up to!

Emperor of Nothing: The Making of Larry David might be the most begrudgingly authorised biography ever written. The story of how author Blake J Harris convinced the comedy titan to “tolerate” him begins, of all places, at Fox News.
It was 2020 and Harris’s second book, The History of the Future: Oculus, Facebook, and the Revolution That Swept Virtual Reality, had been published the previous year. Palmer Luckey, the Oculus founder, was “fired for being a Trump supporter” and Harris, anything but a Trump fan, simply reported the facts. Speaking on the phone from his home in Colorado, he explains: “My book ended up doing well because I was all over rightwing media, as they loved having me on. I was the liberal journalist who exposed the truth about how conservatives were treated in Silicon Valley.”

When Eva Humphries first started working as a nutritionist, she met a client who had just found out he had high blood pressure and high cholesterol, and was on the verge of type 2 diabetes. He had no idea how to change his diet or lifestyle.
The man broke down and cried for 45 minutes, leaving Humphries with “no idea of what to do”, she says. In the final 15 minutes of the session, scrambling for a quick but helpful message, she finally said: “When you look at a plate of food, can you just make half of it veg for me?”

Audi has said it will spend $4bn (£3bn) to build its first factory in the US, as its parent company, Volkswagen, struggles with the impact of steep tariffs imposed by Donald Trump.
The German brand’s chief executive, Gernot Döllner, joined Trump on stage at a campaign rally on Saturday night to announce the factory in Macon, Georgia, in an unusual move by a big European brand just days before the US midterm elections.

Veel vrouwen met lichamelijke klachten voelen zich nog altijd niet serieus genomen en zijn ontevreden over de zorg die ze krijgen, blijkt uit twee grote onderzoeken. Er is toenemende aandacht voor verschillen tussen mannen en vrouwen in de zorg. „Maar patiëntenorganisaties agenderen dit al minstens 24 jaar.”

BELGRADO (ANP/AFP) - Bij de vervroegde parlementsverkiezingen in Servië had om 13.00 uur al zo'n 35 procent van de kiezers gestemd. Dat was bij de verkiezingen in 2023 op hetzelfde tijdstip circa 21 procent. Er wordt deze zondag een hoge opkomst verwacht.
Servië houdt vervroegd verkiezingen, omdat oud-president Aleksandar Vučić begin september het parlement ontbond. Dat gebeurde na door studenten geleide demonstraties. Die begonnen eind 2024 met acties tegen corruptie, vanwege de dodelijke instorting van een overkapping bij het station in Novi Sad, en richtten zich later op de regering.
Vučić domineert al veertien jaar de Servische politiek. Hij trad af als president omdat hij premier wil worden. Zijn rechts-populistische Servische Progressieve Partij (SNS) heeft de onlangs gevormde Studentenlijst als grootste concurrent. Verschillende oppositiepartijen doen niet mee aan de verkiezingen en roepen hun aanhangers op de studenten te steunen.
De circa 6,4 miljoen kiesgerechtigden kunnen tot 20.00 uur stemmen.

Nieuwe aflevering in Janpipodeclownleague. Vandaag op het menu PSV - Feyenoord. Een soort Klassieker maar dan met twee Champions League-clubs. Het was even schrikken toen we de stand erbij pakten, maar Feyenoord is dus koploper. PSV leek ons dan 2e, maar daar staat het begin en eind van het alfabet? PSV dus derde. Wij voorspellen veel hogedrukgebied. Dat is grappig omdat het waait en beide teams met hoge druk spelen. Het is Bosz tegen Van Bronckhorst, gevoelsmatig de enige twee trainers die doorgaans uit hun woorden komen. Een spitsloos PSV - zelfs waarnemend nummer 9 Mijnans is geschorst - tegen een Feyenoord dat behoorlijk in vorm is. Lampjes tegen kakkerlakken. ASML tegen Havenbedrijf Rotterdam. De Theo Lucius derby. Lutsharel Geertruida tegen z'n oude liefde. ZININ.
Update - 1-0, Til tegen z'n oude club
