Qatar had positioned itself as a regional mediator, a safe space for negotiations. Israel’s previously unthinkable airstrikes have put an end to that reputation, and to near-term peace talks for Gaza. As demand for chocolate grows just as climate change affects supply, science is weighing in on alternatives. And a data deep-dive on whether America’s tourist numbers are slumping.

Guest: David Enrich, a deputy investigations editor for The New York Times.

On October 13, 1972, a fight transporting a Uruguayan rugby club crashed into the Andes Mountains.
For the following 72 days, survivors of the crash were stranded in the ice and snow, forced to survive in sub-zero temperatures, battling starvation and avalanches.
Desperate to escape the mountains, two of the crash survivors trekked across the harsh terrain for 10 days, eventually finding rescue for the remaining survivors.
Learn more about the survival of Uruguayan Air Force Flight 571 on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Tim Harford looks at some of the numbers in the news. This week:
Is it true that interest payments on the UK’s national debt are equivalent to £240 per month for everyone in the country?
Reform UK claim that Afghan migrants are 22 times more likely to be convicted of sex offences. Is that number correct?
We try to make sense of a claim that one in 10 women are being driven to leave work by their menopause symptoms.
And we investigate a claim comparing the speed of a snail and the war in Ukraine.
If you’ve seen a number you think we should look at, email the team: moreorless@bbc.co.uk

Demilitarizing the Future (Anthem Press, 2025) draws from art, anthropology, and activism to investigate the entrenchment of militarism in everyday lives and consider novel imaginaries of its dissolution--of peacemaking, community, and shared equitable futures. This book will be published in October of 2025.
In this episode, Rebecca Kastleman, Darcie DeAngelo, Joshua Reno, and Leah Zani join Elena Sobrino to talk about their collaboration editing this anthology. They discuss the ways ecology and infrastructure are central to understanding demilitarization, the importance of interdisciplinary approaches, and the value of creative methods for this work.
"To demilitarize the future, then, requires a radical shift in what we believe is possible. It requires a turning away from the logics of dominance, extraction, and surveillance. It requires recovering forms of life and relations that have long been buried under the ruins of empire, as well as honoring forms of life, arduously crafting different modes of material being and becoming to survive genocide. It demands the nurturing of practices that affirm rest, care, memory, and transformation." Jasbir Puar, Afterword
Guests:
Rebecca Kastleman works in Columbia University's department of English and Comparative Literature, specializing in modern drama, theory, and performance.
Darcie DeAngelo is a medical and visual anthropologist working at the University of Alberta.
Joshua Reno is a socio-cultural anthropologist working at Binghamton University.
Leah Zani is a public anthropologist, author, and poet based in Oakland, California.
Host:
Elena Sobrino is an anthropologist studying the emotions and politics of environmental crises, and currently teaching in the Science and Technology Studies program at Tufts University.
