  • A White House meeting between Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, U.S President Donald Trump and Vice President JD Vance descended into what’s been described as “an explosive encounter,” an “Oval Office Shouting match” and an “unprecedented” exchange. With the future of a U.S/Ukraine minerals deal now uncertain, European leaders responded by attending crisis talks in London. In today's deep dive, we’ll unpack what was said in the meeting, the diplomatic fallout, and the Western leaders moving forward on a plan to end the conflict in Ukraine.

  • We are nearly about to enter election season in Australia. As you would have now heard us say a million times on this podcast, Australia is due to hold an election on 17 May or before. And that could mean we are about to enter a period of disinformation and misinformation in Australia. 

    Today, we’re talking about a very specific type of false information - and that is deepfake. More specifically, we want to talk about how deepfakes can impact elections. And in this context, we’re talking about deepfakes that are deceptive and harmful.

    Over the weekend, both major parties committed to a huge investment to encourage more doctors to bulk bill.The bipartisan push has wide support. In today’s deep dive we’ll look at why the trip to the doctor might still carry a price tag for a while.

  • Just a heads up, today’s episode discusses extremely distressing themes including child sexual abuse and suicide. Listener discretion is advised.

    Last year, the story of a French rape case and the woman at its centre, Gisèle Pélicot, captured global attention. 51 men, including her ex-husband, were found guilty of charges including rape and sexual assault. Just months after that shocking case concluded, another French case is now in the spotlight — with the country’s largest child sexual abuse trial set to begin this week. Retired French surgeon Joel Le Scouarnec is accused of sexually abusing some 300 people, mostly children, often while they were under anaesthetic in a hospital. In today's deep dive, we discuss the allegations against Le Scouarnec, and the seperate investigation that led police to uncover 25 years worth of evidence, and the names of hundreds of alleged victims.

    Little movement on the frontlines in Ukraine over the past year has deepened the sense of an unmoving and unending conflict.

    After a flurry of talks and diplomacy in Europe and the Middle East, today’s TDA deep dive will look at whether a breakthrough in the Russia-Ukraine war is possible.
