Great Britain. Last week, Liz Truss announced after just 44 days in office, she would be
stepping down as Prime Minister
so she could move on to becoming that person who everyone recognizes but they can't quite
remember from where.
They're like, did we go to high school?
Oh, you were the Prime Minister!
Oh, so sorry about the, anyway, can I have two large popcorns please?
And uh... Anyway, List Trust is gone.
And it looks like the UK's got a brand new man.
We begin in the United Kingdom, which is about to get its third prime minister in less
than two months.
Just a short time ago, the ruling Conservative Party announced that former finance minister,
Rishi Sunak won the race to become party leader and prime minister.
Rishi Sunak will become this country's first ever prime minister of color, Asian Asian Asian Asian Asian Asian Asian Asian Asian Asian Asian Asian Asian Asian Asian Asian Asian Asian Asian the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th.. the UK the UK the UK the UK is the UK is the UK is the UK is the UK is th. th. the UK is the UK is th. th. th.

Prime Minister and first ever Hindu Prime Minister.
Rish and the first person of color to walk through Tandadding, also the youngest Prime
Minister here in about two centuries, really a historic day.
A former investment banker, he and his wife are reported to be among the country's richest people.
It is the greatest privilege of my life to be able to serve the party I love and give
back to the country I owe so much to.
Yeah, that's right. The UK's new Prime Minister is former finance minister Rishi
Sunnak. And he's Indian, he's Hindu, and he's only 42 years old, which means
he will probably serve well into his 42 and a halves.
He's a...
And let's not forget...
Let's not forget another important first.
He's also the first Prime Minister, who's an absolute snack.
Yeah. Oh, look at you, Rishi.
And before you're thinking,
oh, is he? Don't forget who came before.
Don't forget.
We're moving on up.
Now, of course, of course.
Not everyone in the UK is happy about Rishisunak
taking the top spot and making history.
And it's not because of his policies
or because of his personality, no.
There are some people who have a problem with something else,
as this caller to a British radio show,
so eloquently explained.
Is the real problem here, Jerry that Rishisunak is a brown man,
and you don't trust him at atheu, at country. Well did you imagine him going to the Scottish Nationalists and
being the Prime Minister of the Scottish Nationalists? Could you imagine me
becoming the Prime Minister of Pakistan or Saudi Arabia? No these things matter.
I'm sorry you don't like it but this is predominantly we're talking
England right 85% of the English people, yes, are white English people.
And they want to see a Prime Minister that reflects them.
Yeah, yeah, this guy has a good point.
Can you imagine if white English people wanted to rule countries where no one looked like them?
What would never happen?
Can you imagine that world? What would that word be like? Now you know what's so funny to me?
It's funny how racist always say, oh, colonization was fine.
It was business, until they feel like they're being colonized.
Then all of a sudden it's like, something needs to be done.
You're not even being colonized.
The guy is British, what's wrong?
You know, and if you ask me, British racists are looking at this whole thing all wrong,
this could be a good thing for you people.
After 400 years, you'll finally get to legitimately blame a brown person for your country's problems.
You're living your dreams!
Wake up!
I mean, there's a part of me that feels a little bad for England's racists. No, because remember, remember, they voted for Brexit specifically to keep Britain white.
And that vote started a seven-year chain of dominoes that has now led directly to an Indian
Prime Minister. that has now led directly to an Indian prime minister. Oh man.
Oh, man.
Yeah, they're probably like, oh, this is certainly a rich irony at my expense, isn't it?
Yeah.
And here's the thing.
Keep in mind, this caller even says that he is Tory.
So this is the same party as Rishisunak, right?
Which means they probably agree on all the same policies. He just doesn't like that he's not white, which I don't
understand. I truly don't understand. What are you scared of? What is this, what is this
call it scared of? Does he think Sunak is going to walk up to and to show my gratitude. I just want to say I'm selling the entire country to India
That's right revenge time you bastards
This is the plan the whole time happy Diwali mother bitches
It's not gonna happen you racist

It's been said that nice guys finish last. But is that really true? I'm Tim Harford, host of
the Cautionary Tales podcast, and I'm exploring that very question.
Join me for my new miniseries on the Art of Fairness. We'll travel from New York to Tahiti
to India on a quest to learn how to succeed without being a jerk. We'll examine stories of
villains undone by their villainy and monstrous self-devaring
egos and will delve into the extraordinary power of decency.
We'll face mutiny on the vast Pacific Ocean, blaze a trail with a pioneering skyscraper and

Listen on the I-Heart radio app, Podcasts, or wherever you listen to podcasts. or a congressman and then a bunch of positions you're not even really sure or real.
But this November, this November, there's one governor's race that could change things,
not just for their state, but for everyone.
And I'm talking about Arizona.
It's the state for people who like Texas, but wish it had more scorpions and old people.
Right now, in Arizona, Republican, Kerry Lake, is in a neck and neck race against Democrat
Katie Hobbs.
And if Lake wins, it could change the course of American democracy itself.
So let's get to send you back to Starbucks
until you learn the difference between a flat white and a latte, you moron.
Of all the newcomers to mega-politics, Kerry Lake is making the biggest waves.
She defeated a mainstream Republican in the primaries.
She's endorsed by Donald Trump himself, right? And she insists on saying Merry Christmas even in July. And every time she
opens her mouth, every single time she speaks, you can see why the Trump crowd
loves her. As governor, I will issue a declaration of invasion.
Finnish President Trump's wall, blow up the cartels drug tunnels and surveillance drones
and deploy the Arizona National Guard tunnels and surveillance drones, and deploy
the Arizona National Guard to stop illegals from entering. Between anti-American
history that's being taught, inappropriate sex education, and the racist critical
race theory, or as I like to refer to it all, woke curriculum, it is teaching
our children hatred. It's time to take a sledgehammer to the mainstream media's lies and propaganda.
During Pride Month, Lake tweeted,
they kicked God out of schools and welcomed the drag queens.
They took down our flag and replaced it with a rainbow.
Katie Hobbs thinks there are 47 different genders.
Why don't you go out and try to milk a bull and tell me how that goes?
GOP strategists say she's taking Trump's message and morphing it into her own.
You can call me Trump in address any day.
No!
No, why didn't she say that?
Now I'm picturing it, Trump in a dress.
I didn't want that image in my head.
I can't see it now the balls are just dangling in the breeze.
Ah, they look like two tiny mandarins.
Oh, and each one has a comb over. Why did she say that? Why?
Why? But yeah, as you can see, Carrie Lake is full-on magarific. She hates illegal
immigrants, drag queens, and the mainstream media. I mean, did you see how she just smash
the shit out of those TVs? Which for some reason all from 30 years ago? No, really, why are those TVs so old?
What, is her whole campaign just an excuse to clean out her garage?
Big government is just like this lawnmower that I no longer need.
Yeah!
Also, for the record, if you disagree with what you see on one channel,
you don't have to sledge hammer the whole TV, you can just change the channel to something different.
We have that technology technology technology technology the channel to something different. We have that technology now.
It's the future.
Now, if you've only been following her for this election,
you might think she's your standard right-wing Republican.
You know, Maga this,
hang Mike Pence, that, normal stuff.
But what makes Carrie Lake's story fascinating is not who she is, but who she used to be.
Carrie Lake used to be known in Arizona as a charismatic newscaster.
He's a lion, hear him roar.
A staple on Phoenix TVs for more than two decades.
Just over a decade ago, she was an Obama donor.
Her friends described her as liberal, and yet you saw her shipped slowly and gradual over
the last decade.
In 2015, several of her friends say she found Trump to be funny and defended his crassness.
She began spreading internet conspiracy theories.
You can take the hydroxy chloroquin as a preventative.
Although Lake has criticized drag queens, she was friends with a popular local drag queen
for 20 years and often won to his drag shows.
Yeah, believe it or not, Kerry Lake went from being a popular local newscaster to hating
the media.
She was personal friends with a drag queen and now she says that they're a danger to children.
Plus she was a donor to Barack Obama's campaign, a donor, and now she rolls with a guy
who thinks Obama isn't even American.
Like, I've heard of people being open to change,
but this is almost not the same person.
Like, I wouldn't be shocked if we found out
that the real Carrie Lake is locked up in a basement somewhere
while this mega alien pretends to be her. Because this is a bigger transformation than the drag queens that she th th th way, is particularly shitty. It's already horrible
to turn on any friend, but betraying the one who taught you how to get your contouring on
point, that is unforgivable. And you know, over the past few years, this seems to have
happened to a lot of people. Like everywhere everywhere. Everyone has a story about this.
They used to be normal, living a chilled life.
But then they clicked on the wrong Facebook post.
They got sucked in by a few YouTube videos.
And the next thing you know, they believe the care bears are actually a democratic sex
cult that's going to penetrate your children with rainbows. And while she sounds tha thuuuuuu thing Carrie Lake has in common with Trump that is especially dangerous.
And I'm not talking about a friendship bracelet with Kim Jong-un.
No, no, no.
I'm talking about her refusal to take an election L.
Anybody who was involved in that corrupt, shady, shoddy election of 2020.
Lock them up.
No more stolen elections.
We have this illegitimate President Biden.
We will no longer accept rigged elections.
Who's with me on that?
You've said that you think Trump won Arizona in 2020?
Do you still believe that?
I believe Biden is the president just like OJ is innocent.
The system is corrupt.
In Arizona, the Republican candidate for governor is refusing to say whether she'll accept the results of the upcoming election if she loses.
Will you accept the results of your election in November?
I'm going to win the election and I will accept that result.
If you lose, will you accept that?
I'm going to win the election and I will accept that result.
I'm going to win the election and I will accept that result.
I'm going to win the election and I will accept that result. You realize thanks to Trump, every Republican running for office now is just like a whiny little kid who refuses to lose a board game.
They used to be like, we are the party of personal responsibility.
And it's like, well, it looks like you lost the election. Do you take responsibility for that?
It's not my fault. It was stolen. I'm your governor, I am. Why? Why?
Why?
And by the way, by the way, it's ridiculous to compare Trump's election loss to OJ's murders,
all right? I mean, for one thing, OJ had a much better legal team and also, that was the system
doing its thing.
But maybe you think Kerry Lake's election denials don't concern you. Maybe you're thinking, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that, that, that, that that. But maybe you think Carrie Lake's election denials don't concern you.
You know, maybe you're thinking,
hey, I don't live in Arizona.
Travel, the only issue that affects me there is whether the ice tea stays at 99 cents.
But you'd be wrong.
Because, you see, Arizona isn't just where your aunt gets all her turquoise jewelry.
No, it's also a key swing state that helped push Joe Biden over the top in 2020.
And if Carrie Lake becomes governor, she could have the final say over who wins it in 2024.
And it doesn't sound like she's going to be shy about getting the result that she wants.
In the last 24 hours, you said the 2020 election was stolen.
Would you have certified Arizona's results? Hell no. In 2024, would you be willing to put the country to put the country governor governor governor governor governor governor governor governor governor governor governor governor to to to to go governor governor governor governor governor to to to to to to to go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go governor governor governor governor to to to to to go governor to go governor to go governor to go governor to go go governor to to to to go go go to go to to go go to to to to to to to become to to become to become to become to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th you said the 2020 election was stolen. Would you have certified Arizona's results?
Hell, no.
In 2024, would you be willing to put the country into position potentially of a constitutional crisis
by not certifying Arizona's results?
In 2024?
If you were governor, that would come down to you.
Let me ask you, Vaughan, would you certify a crooked, corrupt election?
Would you certify a crooked, corrupt election? Would you certify a crooked corrupt election? Just to make
peace? Yes, no? That's not how I operate.
Ooh. You know things aren't looking good when the future of your democracy is
being decided in a Home Depot parking lot.
But just think about it. Think about what Kerry Lake is saying.
She's saying that if the election in 2024 is stolen for Biden, the same way the last election
was stolen for Biden, then she's not going to approve the results.
And that would be chaos.
That could throw America into a constitutional crisis like it's never seen before.
Who knows?
Maybe even another civil war, which is bullshit.
Think about it, some local newscaster gets way into
into Trump fan fiction, and now I've got to grow out mutton chops?
Huh?
I mean, can I pull it off?
Yeah, but it's got to be for the right reasons. And I know you might be saying, oh, you might you you you thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's to be to be to be to be to be that's that's that's that's to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be tooananan. tooan't tooan't tooome soa. thi. thease. thooooooooooooom. tooom. tooom. tooomoom. tooomorrow tooomorrow, Trump try to do a coup last time
and it didn't work. Yeah, the only reason it didn't work is because there were various
Republicans in key positions who didn't go along with it. But if those people get replaced
by people like Harry Lake, it's a whole different story because you see, you don't
need to storm the capital when your friends have the keys.

It's been said that Nye Skye's finished last.
But is that really true?
I'm Tim Harford, host of The Cautionary Tales podcast,
and I'm exploring that very question.

The Midterms.
The Midterms. You know that time of the year when your baby is at the highest risk of being kissed
by Ted Cruz.
There was a major debate last night that could change everything, and we'll tell you all
about it in our ongoing coverage of Vote Demick 2022.
The big question leading up to election day right now is, who will control the Senate
when the dust settles?
And with so many close races around the country, it could still go either way.
But a pivotal moment may have occurred last night at a debate in Pennsylvania.
On one side of this neck-and-neck race, you have Democrat John Federman, Lieutenant Governor, and Bounce on the set of Jerry Springer. And on the Republican side, you have Dr. R. R. R. the Senate. the Senate. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. W. W. W. S. S. S. S. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. C. C. C. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the Governor and Bouncer on the sets of Jerry Springer. And on the Republican
side, you have Dr. Oz, not to be confused with the Wizard of Oz, who also lived
in a mansion that wasn't in Pennsylvania. Now, after securing the Republican
nomination, Dr. Oz has been trying to distance himself from the
magas side of the force and reposition himself as a bipartisan voice of reason to try and scoop up all the centrist voters on election day. You know, he's
basically doing that that Tick-Tock thing where you flip your hair down and
then when you come up you act like you suddenly didn't want to hang Mike Pence.
You know that thing? But here's the thing, here's when Dr. Oz had to explain his position on abortion.
Should abortion be banned in America? 60 seconds.
There should not be involvement from the federal government in how states decide their abortion decisions.
As a physician, I've been in the room when there's some difficult conversations happening.
I don't want the federal government involved with that at all.
I want women, doctors, local political leaders,
letting the democracy that's always allowed our nation
to thrive to put the best ideas forward
so states can decide for themselves.
Oh yeah, that's right.
Dr. Oz said abortion rights should be decided by women
and their doctors and local political leaders,
which was pretty slick, right? I like how he did it, because he started that sentence like he was on the side of women.
And then he snuck in the politicians at the end, like a teenager buying condoms at a gas station.
I was like, oh, let me get those Cheetos and the root beer, and I can't get the Trojan
please, uh, please, uh, uh, blah.
You would get reserved, uh, let's be honest, if you're pro-choice what Dr. Oz is suggesting is bullshit, right?
I think we can all agree.
There is only one politician who should have a say in your abortion, and that's Herschel
Walker, because it's his.
It's probably his.
Ladies check, they're all his.
Now, unfortunately, the Democrats couldn't exactly take a victory lap after Dr.
Oz's performance at the debate, because it was their own guy who was getting most of the attention.
Lieutenant Governor John Fetterman started off the hour-long debate assuring voters he's
still capable of doing the job of Senator five months after having a stroke.
Let's also talk about the elephant in the room.
I had a stroke. He's never let me forget that. I might miss some words during
this debate, mushed two words together, but it knocked me down, but I'm going to keep
coming back up." Fetterman's use of a closed captioning device during the debate where
he read questions in real time on a screen above the moderators, sparked debate
on social media, with some observers seen as strong performance amid recovery, while others cast him as unsteady.
Federman especially lost his footing on the subject of fracking
when questioned about a 2018 interview
where he said he would never support the industry
versus his current position supporting fracking.
I do support fracking and I don't, I support fracking and I stand and I do support fracking.
You know what's interesting to see is how people have reacted to this clip.
You know, because on the one hand, obviously that was a part of the debate that tripped him
up because he has had a shaky record on whether he's for or against the fracking.
But also beyond that, people were wondering about the stroke. And it was interesting to see if people that if people that that that that that that that that that that that that that that th. th. th. thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I'm thi, I'm thi, I'm thi, I's thi, I's thi, I's thi, I's thi, I's the, I's the, I the, I is the, I is th. I is th. I is th. I is th. I is th. I is th. I is th. I is th. I is th. I is thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thin, thin, thin, thin, thi. I'm thin. I'm thin. I'm thin. I'm thi. I'm thi. I'm thi. I'm thi. I'm thi. I'm the stroke. And it was interesting to see, if people support him, they're seeing a guy who's overcoming
a temporary disability, but then the people who are against him see a guy who's not mentally
fit to be senator.
And I guess because of polarization, it's like that with everything these days.
Everyone's seeing the world from two different sides.
Like, if you're a die-hard Christmas lover, you hate the Grinch. But if you don't like Christmas, then yeah, he's extremely
f-diably and you'd smash.
Everything is subjective, everything.
Look at that mouth.
And I personally feel bad for John Feterman, though, because he had a stroke.
And on top of that, after the debate, Dr. Oz tried to sell him a supplement that would cure him for $59,99.
You know if you asked me, I don't know why Federman ever admitted to having a stroke.
This is American politics.
He could have just done whatever he wanted, right?
He's running for the Senate of Pennsylvania.
He could have just showed up to the debate and be like, sorry for my words, everyone,
I'm drunk off my ass. Go Philly's, yeah! I love this guy, woo! Well, the truth is, Feterman's limitations right now are just something voters will have
to consider when they make their choice.
Like, maybe they don't care whether Feterman is capable of debating.
Maybe voters prefer his policies, or maybe they just want a senator who can block the door
the next time it's getting stormed by rioters.
That could be very useful.
It's all up to them.
While China is spreading around the world in secret,
there's an even bigger superpower
who just announced her plan to dominate the globe.
Fans a superstar singer Riana have been clamoring for new music from her for years,
and now it appears their weight their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their from her for years and now it appears their weight is almost over.
Rihanna shared a 15-second teaser on Twitter of our new single titled Lift Me Up. It's
for the upcoming Black Panther movie Wakanda Forever. This marks Riana's first
single as a lead artist
in six long years for her fans.
Oh yeah!
Thank you.
Thank you, Jesus.
Rianna's releasing new music.
And on top of that, her song is going to be part of the new Black Panther movie.
Are you kidding me? Oh man, that's going to be so great.
I mean, it's going to be great for us.
It won't be great for the Wakandans,
because it's going to be hard to concentrate on fighting the bad guys
when a Rihanna song starts playing.
You know, it's going to be like,
it's time to defend our whole...
Oh, oh, Shuri, are you hearing these? Could you understand how big this is?
Rihanna Plus, Black Panther?
What?
