On this week's episode, Carys is joined by Maya Goodfellow

Maya is an academic, author and political commentator who is currently a Presidential Fellow at City University. Her work focuses on racial capitalism, immigration and bordering, the politics of international development and animal rights. 

Together, they discuss the media's focus on Trump in relation to Gaza, the Green party's membership surging, revelations about Jeffrey Epstein, and how a small town in Spain has some hope for a more progressive view of immigration.

This week’s guest is Labour MP for Clapham and Brixton Hill, Bell Ribeiro Addy.

Bell is what feels like an endangered species, a left wing Labour MP. She was first elected in 2019 and was Diane Abbott’s Chief of Staff for many years. You might remember Bell from our Christmas special last year.

I speak to her about the contest to be Labour's next deputy leader as voting opens this week.

This week is an American politics special and I interview Amanda Litman, the co-founder and president of Run for Something, which recruits and supports young, diverse progressives running for down-ballot office. Since launching in 2017, RFS has elected more than 1500 leaders across nearly all 50 states, mostly women and people of color.

Amanda previously worked as a digital strategist on several presidential campaigns and her new book, When we’re in Charge is a guide to leadership for Millennials and Gen Zs.

We’re back from our summer break and now that Gary is focused on writing his book we’re going to be changing around the format of the show. We’ll have more in depth interviews with some special guests lined up. Today’s episode is an in-depth look at the rise of the far right, in conversation with Joe Mulhall, from Hope not Hate. You might remember Joe was on last year in the wake of the Southport riots.
