Benjamin Netanyahu is back in the spotlight after a 60 Minutes interview clip resurfaces in which he holds up a smartphone and warns that digital platforms can be used to "penetrate" people's information environment and repeatedly portray someone as a monster. We look at what he was actually arguing about propaganda and social media, alongside the latest Lindsay Clancy developments as the lone holdout juror breaks his silence and her lawyer shifts strategy ahead of a possible retrial. We also turn to Britain, where Prime Minister Andy Burnham uses his Labour conference speech to promise a new national direction and defend the future of the United Kingdom.

I'm joined by Dustin Tavella, magician, storyteller and winner of Season 16 of America's Got Talent. Dustin's performances combine close-up magic, storytelling, faith and family — and today he's bringing some of that magic into the studio for us. Beyond the stage, his life has taken him through music, youth work, adoption and humanitarian work, giving his performances a much more personal edge than the usual magician's act.

Britain's justice system is under scrutiny after anti-migration activist Danny Tommo is refused bail and remanded in custody over allegations that he slashed a Channel dinghy, while five men arrested near RAF Fairford on suspicion of terrorism and explosives offences are released on bail under strict conditions as the investigation continues. We look at the stark contrast between the two cases, why Donald Trump says he would not have released the Fairford suspects, and the wider debate over whether Britain is applying its laws and policing consistently amid increasingly bitter disputes over immigration, protest and national identity.

I'm joined by retired U.S. Air Force Master Sergeant Joe Deslauriers, a Silver Star recipient and former Explosive Ordnance Disposal technician who served in Iraq and Afghanistan. In 2011, Joe was critically wounded by an IED in Afghanistan, losing both legs and his left arm. Since then, he has spoken extensively about recovery, resilience and rebuilding his life after catastrophic injury.

I'm joined by Julie Lapidus, founder of Autism Evolution and Santara Wellness and author of The Autism Generation: Understanding the Autism Epidemic from Causes to Solutions. Drawing on 16 years of research and her family's experience with autism, Julie examines possible environmental and medical contributors to autism and explores integrative approaches to supporting children and families on the spectrum.

Donald Trump arrives at the United Nations with a major announcement on Greenland, unveiling a new security agreement with Denmark and Greenland that expands America's military presence across the island and blocks non-NATO states from establishing military installations there. We look at what Trump's Greenland deal means for the Arctic, NATO and America's confrontation with Russia and China — and the peculiar spectacle of Trump using the UN stage to strengthen U.S. power while attacking the very global institutions gathered around him.

I'm joined by my friends Chris and Jackie Laidlaw, authors of Mirror Me. Drawing on their own experiences with sobriety, ADHD, codependency and parenting, they talk candidly about emotional sobriety, intimacy, forgiveness, taking responsibility for your triggers and learning to replace control with self-reflection inside a marriage and family.

Andrew Wakefield also returns for the second part of our conversation. The former gastroenterologist and researcher became one of the most controversial figures in modern medicine through his work around MMR, bowel disease and autism. He recounts how parents' concerns drew him into vaccine-safety research, the resistance he says he encountered within the medical establishment, and why he continued pursuing those questions despite the personal and professional consequences.

Britain is being told to prepare for an increasingly dangerous world — but who exactly is expected to fight? We look at a new wave of military messaging around the UK, Jacob Rees-Mogg warning that Britons may have to go to war and that some could die "doing their duty," and renewed debate over how far Britain should go in confronting Russia as NATO continues urging European allies to strengthen their defence posture. We also look at the Converse advert pulled after accusations that its imagery evoked the KKK and lynching, and the BBC's decision to remove 11 Mitchell and Webb sketches from iPlayer after concluding that some material no longer works for today's audience.

I'm joined by Tommy Jackson, speaker, mentor, author and former top-ranked financial advisor. After more than 30 years in wealth management, coaching and mentoring athletes, Tommy left finance to focus on helping people unlock their potential. His first book, Living the Page, is a 40-day system built around practical coaching, reflection and daily action.

Britain's political identity is shifting in increasingly strange directions. Pubgoers can now use digital ID on their phones to prove their age when buying alcohol, while the leaders of the SNP, Plaid Cymru and Sinn Féin have joined together around the principle of national self-determination and closer ties with Europe. Meanwhile, Green Party leader Zack Polanski is campaigning in Urdu as he fights for Keir Starmer's former seat in Holborn and St Pancras.

I'm joined by Dr. Eric Berg, chiropractor, health educator and author whose work focuses on nutrition, metabolism and the environmental forces that shape our health. His new book, Change Your Environment, argues that lasting change isn't simply a matter of willpower — our food, light, technology, routines and surroundings can quietly influence everything from our habits and energy to the way our bodies function.

Sydney Sweeney is at the centre of another culture-war storm after her latest ad triggers outrage from prominent female athletes, who argue it sets women's sport backwards — while others accuse critics of selective outrage. We look at the backlash and what it reveals about modern feminism, before turning to new comments from a Lindsay Clancy juror following the mistrial.

I'm joined by Kenzie Burleigh, a longtime editor and publisher in Florida's Panhandle, yoga instructor and wellness educator. Kenzie has taught yoga for 15 years, working with adults and children through movement, breath, mindfulness and sound. Her work has also taken her beyond the studio into retreats, travel and service projects in Africa, while her background in publishing has given her a unique perspective on the stories people tell about themselves — and what they may actually be carrying underneath.

I'm also joined by Timothy Alberino, author, lecturer, explorer and filmmaker whose work explores biblical cosmology, ancient civilizations, the Book of Enoch, the Nephilim, UFO phenomena and the mysteries of the ancient world.

On the 25th anniversary of 9/11, we revisit the questions, controversies and unanswered claims that still surround that day — from Building 7, the Pentagon and the money trail to the families still demanding answers. We also look at the extraordinary new release of 170,000 9/11-related documents in New York, including records connected to Building 7, and Jon Stewart's response to newly released air-quality records that appear to confirm what first responders and New Yorkers had suspected for years.

I'm also joined by Wendy Backlund, author and speaker with Igniting Hope Ministries. Wendy's work focuses on helping people break free from their past, renew their minds, discover their true identity in Christ and learn to see life from a supernatural perspective. Together with her husband Steve, she helps lead Igniting Hope's message of hope, joy and transformation.

Britain's migration crisis is boiling over as "Stop the Boats" protesters disrupt Dover, clashes erupt over the government's response, and more migrants arrive on the south coast. We look at the growing anger over immigration, the authorities' reaction to protesters, and fresh concerns about free speech after another Brit is arrested over alleged online communications offences. Then we turn to Germany, where the AfD celebrates a huge result in Saxony-Anhalt, shaking the political establishment and raising new questions about whether Europe's old consensus is beginning to break apart.

I'm joined once again by Rick "The Reptile Guy" de Ridder from Emerald Coast Zoo. Last time he brought a snake and an alligator into the studio — this time, we have no idea what he's bringing with him.

I'm also joined by Jonathan Otto, an investigative filmmaker, humanitarian, natural-health researcher and founder of MyRedLight. We discuss red-light therapy, the relationship between natural light and health, some of the more unconventional practices he's explored, and how his faith, family and mission to alleviate suffering shape his approach to the human body.

Thomas Massie begins naming names from Epstein-related records on the floor of Congress, putting renewed attention on the powerful figures who crossed paths with Jeffrey Epstein. We look at the names being raised, the new details emerging around Epstein's network, and why the full story of who knew him — and what they knew — still refuses to go away.

I'm joined by Barbara Georgouse, a Dance Movement Therapist and recovery specialist with more than 30 years of experience helping people reconnect with their bodies and emotions. We discuss movement as a tool for healing, how the body can reveal what the mind is trying to suppress, and Barbara puts us through some simple exercises designed to reduce stress and anxiety.

I'm also joined by Christy Anastas, a religious freedom advocate and biblical Hebrew scholar whose family roots stretch back generations in Bethlehem. We discuss growing up in the Holy Land, the pressures facing Christian communities in the Middle East, the Hebrew context of Scripture, and her belief that the Kingdom of God offers a path beyond tribalism toward reconciliation.

The Lindsay Clancy case has become about far more than one horrific tragedy. We look at the growing movement rallying around her, the arguments being made about motherhood, mental health and mercy, and what the public response reveals about how our culture understands women who kill their children. We also compare the extraordinary sympathy and fundraising surrounding Clancy with the story of a mother who died running back into a burning home to save her daughter — and ask what our different reactions to these women say about us. I'm joined by Dean Andersen, a recovery advocate and documentary producer who uses immersive projects to help people rediscover purpose and community. We discuss his own recovery, restoring an underground nuclear bunker, and his latest journey across America exploring the Twelve Steps and the history of recovery.

I'm joined by acclaimed photographer Sean Murphy, who has spent decades shooting some of the biggest names in music and culture.
