On this episode of Going Underground, we speak to Michelle O’Neill of Sinn Fein about Brexit and the legacy of Bobby Sands. Next we speak to Hussain Albukhaiti from Sanaa where he discusses the bombing of Al Raei school in Yemen by the US and UK-backed Saudi-led coalition, UK and US arms sales to the Saudis and the damaging impact this bombing will have on the surviving Yemeni schoolchildren. Finally, we speak to Graham Hancock about his new book, America Before: The Key to Earth’s Lost Civilization. He discusses how dogmatism in archaeology has covered up 130,000 years of human history in the Americas and evidence of advanced civilizations that lived in the Americas thousands of years ago, which challenges colonial narratives of uncivilized natives incapable of high culture.

Danny DeVito takes a seat next to Larry for a riveting conversation about working with Tim Burton on the new ‘Dumbo’ remake and his hilarious audition for the show ‘Taxi.’ Plus, why he is a staunch supporter of Bernie Sanders.

Larry and guests discuss President Trump's recent backtracking on key policy announcements and his strategy for the GOP in 2020. Then, actor-activist Thomas Sadoski on his work helping refugees and children in war-torn areas around the world.

Most of us are taught and believe that we live in a society based on merit and equal justice. The Varsity Blues college admissions scandal informs us that neither are true. The rich and privileged can buy access for their kids at the expense of families who are hard-working and honest. Is the idea of merit dead?

CrossTalking with Lionel, Remington A. Gregg, and Richard Vedder.

There are calls to end the Electoral College system, lower the voting age to 16, allow non-citizens to vote, and to pack the Supreme Court with more and partisan judges. What is happening here? Well, it would seem that, if you can’t win on the merit of your ideas, then all you need to do is radically change the system.

CrossTalking with Jen Kerns, Wendy Osefo, and Bruce Fein.

Finally. Robert Mueller has completed his investigation into so-called Trump collusion with Russia. There are no additional indictments. The report is finished, but the fallout continues.

CrossTalking with Xavier Moreau, Marcus Papadopoulos, and Alex Christoforou.

Four US citizens were killed in a roadside bombing in Afghanistan this week; meanwhile the Pentagon hasn’t held a press conference in over 300 days. Plastic pollution costs the entire world an estimated $2.5 trillion. While the FBI continues to surveil “Black Identity Extremists” in its secret activist-monitoring intelligence program, Black churches continue to be targeted by possible arson attacks. And scientists have discovered a new state of matter.

What drives American foreign policy? At its core, is it really about furthering national interests? Is there an ideological foundation that is a driver? We are told it is all about democracy. Or is it really all about power and the purposeful denial of agency of others on the international stage?

CrossTalking with Max Blumenthal and James Jatras.

Saudi Aramco’s initial bond shatters records, but just how high did it go? RT correspondent Alex Mihailovich helps us drill into the details. Plus, is there hope on the horizon for the trade war? Former Representative Alan Grayson joins us to break it all down. And later, Fiat Chrysler is getting much-needed help from Tesla; Adam Mesh of the Adam Mesh Trading Group lends us a hand to sort through the story plus some other stocks.

On this episode of Going Underground we speak to UN Special Rapporteur on the Negative Impact of the Unilateral Coercive Measure Idriss Jazairy on the illegality of unilateral US sanctions, why sanctions don’t work for regime change and the unfairness of the humanitarian impact on civilians. Next we speak to Dr Bob Gill on the creeping privatisation of the NHS and how it is happening under our noses by stealth. Finally we speak to Baraa Shiban on why a peace agreement hasn’t succeeded in Yemen, who is to blame for the ongoing war and why the violence hasn’t stopped despite many attempts at ceasefires.
