On this week's podcast:

Patrick Basham, founder of The Democracy Institute in Washington DC, has been in Istanbul during the recent Turkish election.

He spoke with us upon his return to Washington about the changes an Erdogan loss would bring to one of the worlds most pivotal countries.

We talked about the 2024 race for the U.S. presidency; is Trumps second term inevitable?

And, as Patrick is British, his view on the coronation and the future of the monarchy.

We broach the subject of AI, and much more in conversation with one of Leighton’s favourite analysts.

We have media commentary on Fox and Tucker Carlson. Who’s the loser? It isn’t Tucker.

And we visit The Mailroom with Mrs Producer.
