| 6/22/26 | ![]() How to win tourists back? | We’ll take a look at whether tourism to the UAE is ready to bounce back, after the UK lifted its travel warning - reopening a key market for Dubai, which welcomes more than 1.5 million British visitors every year. Plus, with more details emerging about the UAE’s social media ban for under-15s, we’ll ask how schools are responding - and whether it could force brands, creators and platforms to rethink the way they reach younger audiences. And, we go behind the scenes at the world’s largest camel dairy farm, as Camelicious opens its doors to the public for the first time. Then, from camel milk to cockpits - Katie Chambers speaks to Austin Meyer, founder of Laminar Research, about Google’s new AI-powered flight simulator, and why looking realistic is not the same as flying realistically.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information. | 1h 02m 02s | ||||||
| 6/19/26 | ![]() The UAE’s under-15 social media ban | The UAE is the first Arab country to introduce restrictions on children under 15 - and we want to hear from you on this one. The ban aims to protect young people online - as a growing body of evidence suggests social media is bad for their mental health - and opens them up to inappropriate content and contact. Meanwhile - seafarers are the unseen front-line in this crisis - thousands are still stranded in the Strait of Hormuz. But this afternoon we're going to hear from several sailors - who've sent in messages from their shipsSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information. | 46m 05s | ||||||
| 6/18/26 | ![]() Winning travellers back after disruption | With hopes of de-escalation after the US-Iran ceasefire, we ask whether passengers are ready to book again, how quickly routes can normalise, and whether jet fuel and insurance costs could keep fares higher for longer. US President Donald Trump says the Strait of Hormuz will be completely open by Friday, but what do vessels, crews and maritime authorities need before traffic can move safely again? Even if the Strait reopens, the crisis has raised a bigger question for the UAE: how much should the country rely on one maritime chokepoint? Do you have a will in the UAE? And why do humans seem to always turn left?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information. | 50m 58s | ||||||
| 6/17/26 | ![]() Are ships stranded near the Strait of Hormuz still fit to sail? | US President Donald Trump says the Strait of Hormuz will be completely open by Friday, but for the shipping industry, restarting normal operations is not as simple as turning the engines back on. We find out what inspections, maintenance and safety checks vessels need after weeks of disruption. We also look at the human side of the crisis. Are seafarers still willing to work near the Strait? Are tanker owners finding it harder to recruit crew? And could safety fears make a global seafarer shortage even worse? Would the UAE ever move towards a UK-style under-16 social media ban? Roblox has officially launched its new Roblox Kids and Roblox Select accounts globally. How does this make the platform safer? And how did a tree many people pass every summer become a city-wide story? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information. | 1h 00m 18s | ||||||
| 6/16/26 | ![]() What's next for the Strait of Hormuz? | The Strait of Hormuz is one of the world’s most important shipping routes, but even if the US-Iran MOU is officially signed on Friday, the return to normal will not be instant. So what shipping companies need to see before they send vessels back through at normal levels, what happens to insurance and freight costs, and how the disruption is affecting crews.? The UK is moving ahead with plans to ban under-16s from social media by spring 2027, in one of the biggest changes yet to how children use the internet. So can the UK make this work without creating major privacy risks? Will teenagers simply find ways around it? Plus, the World Cup is underway, and AI is playing a bigger role than ever on the games.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information. | 57m 48s | ||||||
| 6/15/26 | ![]() How the conflict affect humanitarian supply chains | When we talk about regional instability, we often focus on oil, shipping and trade. But there is another supply chain that is just as critical: the humanitarian one. Food, medicine, fuel, emergency shelter and medical supplies all have to move quickly when crises hit. We speak with Bouran Najim, Head of Logistics at Dubai Humanitarian. Today is the start of the midday outdoor work ban that will run until the 15th of September. And there's another victim of a crow attack in Dubai... and he himself has filmed it.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information. | 43m 01s | ||||||

We also look at the Ebola outbreak in Congo and Uganda that has prompted emergency funding, travel screening and concern about cross-border spread. Researchers in China have found a way to hide chat bot commands inside ordinary audio. The concern is that a malicious audio clip could quietly tell an AI system what to do, without users noticing.

Dubai Police have warned that fake travel and tourism offers are circulating online, often promoted through slick-looking websites, social media pages, messaging apps and phone calls. So how do you know whether that bargain break is genuine, or a scam designed to catch you out? New trade routes are opening up across the region - due to the conflict. We look at what actually has to happen on the ground to make these new corridors work in practice. The conflict in the region has caused a major disruption to international aviation, with a number of foreign carriers suspending, reducing or rerouting flights as airlines reassessed safety, airspace access, insurance requirements and operational risk. Now, we’re starting to see a gradual and uneven return.
