More or Less: Behind the Stats - Bonus episode: The Autism Curve
An interruption to your regular podcast feed: the first episode of a new BBC Radio 4 series investigating the steep rise in autism diagnoses.
The Autism Curve looks into the data that has prompted arguments - and conspiracy theories - about what?s behind the rapid rise. It goes on to explore changes in what autism is, who gets to define it, and whose experience counts.
In this first episode, Ginny Russell discusses her 20-year study that showed an astonishing eightfold rise in new autism diagnoses in the UK on an exponential curve. And Professor Joshua Stott explains how a surprising discovery at a dementia clinic led him to calculate that that enormous rise in diagnoses may still undercount the country?s autistic population by as much as 1.2 million.

Everything Everywhere Daily - A Brief History of Australia
Australia is a unique country.
By area, it's huge. By population, however, it is dwarfed by smaller countries such as Nepal, Ghana, Yemen, and the United Kingdom.
By modern standards, the nation is quite young, yet it has a history that goes back further than almost any other country.
…and there is also the thing with the criminals.
Learn more about the history of Australia and how the continent/country came to be on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Pod Save America - Has the Media Surrendered to Trump? (feat. Chuck Todd)
Chuck Todd, former moderator of Meet the Press and host of The Chuck ToddCast, joins Dan to assess how the news media has responded to Trump 2.0. His read? Not great. He and Dan lament cable news' tired playbook, discuss Craigslist's indirect role in electing Donald Trump, and question whether broadcast news may be in the early stages of a kleptocracy. Then, turning to the Democratic Party, Chuck and Dan debate which fights Democrats should focus on, what voters will want from the party in 2028, and whether the right is exploiting President Biden's decline to undermine the left's faith in journalism.
