About this episode

A day after a famine is confirmed in Gaza City, a spokesperson for the UN children's agency UNICEF tells us she's afraid hunger will spread. We ask the Norwegian government what other countries can do to put pressure on Israel to let in aid.Also in the programme: Jeffrey Epstein's associate Ghislaine Maxwell tells the authorities she never saw President Trump in any compromising situations, and there is no ‘list’; but how credible is a convicted criminal seeking release? And we discuss whether novels really benefit from “sensitivity readers”.(IMAGE: Palestinian doctor Ahmed Basal examines a child for malnutrition at Al-Rantisi Hospital in Gaza City, August 7, 2025 / CREDIT: REUTERS/Dawoud Abu Alkas)
