I’ve been investigating drug lords and cartel kingpins for years now, and I’ve learnt a lot. In this video I’m going to talk about my experiences spending time with them, and explain why the most scary thing about them is often just how normal they seem.

Below I’ve put links to the full documentaries I talk about during this video - if you haven’t seen them yet give them a watch:

Can storytelling actually make a difference? In a post-truth world where it’s often impossible to hold politicians or the mega-wealthy accountable, it can sometimes feel like it isn’t. This week I’m trying to get to the bottom of this question with the director of The Voice of Hind Rajab, Kaouther Ben Hania.

Iran war news is moving fast after the US and Israel attacked Tehran resulting in the death of Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei, escalating tensions between the US and Iran and raising fears of a wider Middle East war, as well as World War 3, with explosions reported as far as Dubai. As Trump comments on the attack and global leaders respond, the world is watching for Iran live updates: what this means with the Iran leader death, to find out the future of the regime, and see whether this conflict spirals further.

I’m Ben Zand, a British-Iranian journalist, and in this video I break down the latest Iran news — what we know about the attack, what’s happening inside Iran right now, how the country is being run after the Supreme Leader’s death, and what ordinary Iranians are feeling as the war narrative grows. This isn’t just about headlines or Trump statements — it’s about what really happens next for Iran.

Searches for "looksmaxxing" on Google have doubled since October 2025.

Clavicular has just been profiled by GQ and The New York Times.

In this video, I'm trying to understand what's behind that rise, from the dark corners of the internet right into the mainstream, as well as breaking down some of the strange words they use, and reflect on my own experiences speaking to people on the extreme edge of these online communities.

I’ve made documentaries on looksmaxxers, incels, gooners and the rent-a-girlfriend industry. Today, I'm breaking down why people fall into black pill ideology, and what I’ve learnt about modern masculinity in the digital age.

The truth about the manosphere - 5 years in the making.
