  • Decoding America: Trump v the Pope
    Apr 14 2026
    In this episode of Decoding America, Reged Ahmad and Jonathan Yerushalmy look at Donald Trump’s war of words with the Pope, that AI image and the blowback it has received - especially when seen through the administration’s painting of the war through a religious lens. They also also examine how the new blockade of the strait of Hormuz will work in practice, the US making such a contradictory move after failed negotiations with Iran, and why the US president and Marco Rubio were at the UFC while it was all going down. Decoding America is a new podcast from Guardian Australia hosted by Reged Ahmad with Jonathan Yerushalmy, Guardian Australia’s US site editor.

Guardian Australia’s medical editor, Melissa Davey, has exclusive details on their findings about who will be most affected if sea levels continue to rise and who should pick up the bill when climate change affects our health and wellbeing. She talks to host Nour Haydar.
