The "Winging It" podcast is an engaging audio series hosted by seasoned experts from The Blue Owl Group. Everyone's got a story about "winging it"  - those uncharted, universal moments we all face – when there’s no playbook, no mentor on speed dial, just your instincts and sheer determination to guide you. On Winging It, we’ll talk to top policymakers, civil society leaders, and tech trailblazers who've been there — and lived to tell the tale.  At a time when technology, global democracies, and leadership face unprecedented challenges, we'll explore how today's decision-makers navigate uncertainty, take bold risks, and, yes, sometimes just have to wing it.  Find us at -- www.blueowlgrp.com

From the team at Encyclopedia Geopolitica, “How to get on a Watchlist” is a podcast about dangerous acts, organizations, and people. In each episode, we sit down with leading experts to discuss the risks they pose, and how to stop them. From assassinations and airliner shootdowns, through to kidnappings and coups, we’ll examine each of these threats through the lenses of both the dangerous actors behind them, and the agencies around the world seeking to stop them.

In the interest of operational security and public safety, certain tactical details will be omitted from these discussions, however the cases and threats which we discuss are very real.

Get an in-depth insight into the work of a House of Lords inquiry. In this podcast, we look at fixing our broken food system with Baroness Walmsley. She chaired the recent House of Lords Food, Diet and Obesity Committee. Over the next few episodes, Baroness Walmsley will share some of the insights the committee heard from the experts they invited in and why this matters.

House of Lords committees are small groups of members from across parties that meet away from the chamber. They investigate public policy, proposed laws and government activity. Committees are appointed to consider specific policy areas and, once they have picked a topic to examine, will hear from experts and members of the public on the subject. Afterwards, the committee will make recommendations to the government, who must respond.

So many of us seem to be scrambling to understand where the world is heading. Decade-old certainties seem to crumble before our eyes. Perhaps we are reaching the moment that Karl Marx predicted when all that is solid melts into air. But don’t panic. In their brand-new podcast, Future Discontinuous, hosts Misha Glenny and Eva Konzett are seeking out some of the brightest minds on the planet to help you navigate your way through this uncharted ocean. We will learn whether technology really can prevent climate change, whether the current economic headwinds are temporary or structural, whether Russia and China are forever friends, and whether social media are turning us all into zombies. But unlike many podcasts, we will also be looking for answers. After almost a century of steady progress in health and prosperity, people no longer expect their lives to be an upgrade on that of their parents. Misha and Eva will be asking guests whether such trends can be reversed or whether we will sink into another period of conflict both within and between states. Things may look bleak on the surface, but around the globe, human ingenuity continues to draw on diverse traditions to create systems that will overcome or circumvent the political, social, and economic dangers that are all too visible. 

Our hosts: Misha Glenny is the Rector of the Institute for Human Sciences and one of the BBC’s most distinguished correspondents, as well as the presenter of the highly-praised podcast How to Invent a Country. Eva Konzett is a renowned editor and reporter for Vienna’s leading news magazine, Falter.

About our show: Future Discontinuous: Smart Talk with Smart People is a co-production of Falter and the IWM Vienna.

For decades, Sean “Diddy” Combs stood at the top of hip-hop—a mogul who built an empire and redefined celebrity, power, and influence in the music industry. But behind the platinum hits and red carpets, a darker story was beginning to emerge. As accusations of abuse and misconduct gained momentum, the shine began to fade.

Hosted by Jesse Weber, Season 2 of The Rise & Fall of Diddy picks up where the story left off. With a federal sex trafficking and racketeering trial now underway, we go deeper into the allegations threatening to dismantle one of the most iconic legacies in entertainment history.

With courtroom drama unfolding in real time, this season tracks the legal battles, key witnesses, explosive evidence, and the unraveling of a cultural icon once thought untouchable. 

The spotlight is harsher. The stakes are higher. And the fall may be final.
