Critical Thinking
Return of the Trump! (Part 1)
Black Spy Podcast, Season 17, Episode 0007
This week's Black Spy Podcast is part one of a two part critical thinking analysis of what now President elect Donald Trump might do now we know he has won the 2024 U.S. Presidential Election. Carlton suggests that the new Trump's administration is likely prioritize a return to his previous domestic economic policies, emphasizing tax cuts and deregulation to stimulate growth. Trump may reinstate tariffs on foreign goods, particularly targeting China, to protect American industries and reduce trade deficits. This approach could lead to heightened tensions in international trade relations.
In foreign policy, Trump has expressed a desire to end U.S. involvement in the Ukraine conflict, advocating for negotiations rather than military support. His stance on Israel may remain supportive of Prime Minister Netanyahu, potentially overlooking the complexities of the Gaza situation while emphasizing Israel's right to defend itself. Trump's administration might adopt a more hands-off approach regarding the West Bank and Palestinian issues, focusing instead on strengthening U.S.-Israel ties.
Regarding China, Trump could escalate confrontational rhetoric, particularly concerning Taiwan, as he aims to assert U.S. interests in the Indo-Pacific region. However, he may also seek to avoid direct military conflict, preferring economic measures and diplomatic pressure.
Overall, Trump’s presidency would likely reflect a blend of nationalism and isolationism, with a focus on American interests while navigating complex global challenges.
This is once again a great Black Spy Podcast that aims to be entertaining whilst educating and lay down the themes for listeners to perform their own research.

Christmas and New Year TV - What’s the hidden message? (Part 2)
The Black Spy Podcast, Season 18, Episode 0003
In keeping with the Christmas spirit the Black Spy Podcast team continues its geo-political analysis of Xmas and its commercial and state psychological hidden messages:
The scheduling of Christmas and New Year television broadcasts in the UK and beyond often reflects a hidden agenda that intertwines cultural, commercial, and political interests. During this festive period, networks curate programming that emphasizes nostalgia, family values, and community spirit, aiming to attract large audiences. Classic films, holiday specials, and live events are strategically placed to evoke emotional connections and reinforce cultural traditions.
However, beneath this festive veneer lies a commercial motive. Advertisers capitalize on the increased viewership, leading to higher advertising rates and significant revenue for broadcasters. The scheduling often prioritizes big-budget productions and celebrity appearances, which can overshadow smaller, independent projects, raising questions about representation and diversity in media.
Moreover, the choice of programming can subtly influence public sentiment and national identity. For instance, certain narratives may promote specific political ideologies or social values, shaping viewers' perceptions during a time of reflection and resolution. In this way, the festive broadcast schedule serves not only as entertainment but also as a tool for cultural reinforcement and economic gain, revealing the complex interplay between media, society, and commerce during the holiday season.
So, enjoy this and next week’s episodes and continue to be entertained whilst learning and above all don’t forget to subcribe to never miss an episode.
Moreover, as always, please don’t be afraid to contact us and put any questions you might have to any of the Black Spy Podcast team concerning this or any other of our fascinating subjects.

Robotics, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning - A Gift or Curse to human kind? (Part 1)
The Black Spy questions national journalists Firgas Esack and Sally Brockway.
The Black Spy Podcast Season 8, Episode 0003
This week's Black Spy Podcast discusses Artificial Intelligence (AI), Robotics, and Machine Learning with Firgas Esack and fellow national news media Journalist, Sally Brockway; regarding these rapidly advancing fields that have the potential to significantly impact the future.
We consider the positives and negatives of these fields.
In the coming years, we can expect to see significant advancements in these fields, which will bring both major opportunities and potential existential threats.
The future of AI is particularly exciting as it has the potential to revolutionize the way we live, work, and interact with each other. AI has already shown tremendous promise in fields such as healthcare, finance, and transportation, and its impact is only set to grow in the coming years. For example, AI-powered systems are already being used to diagnose diseases, analyze financial data, and control autonomous vehicles. The future of AI is likely to see it becoming even more integrated into our daily lives, with AI systems performing a wider range of tasks, from scheduling appointments to helping us make important decisions.
The future of robotics is also very promising. Robotics technology has come a long way in recent years, with robots now being able to perform a wide range of tasks, from manufacturing to search and rescue operations. The future of robotics is likely to see even more advanced robots, capable of performing complex tasks with greater accuracy and efficiency. This will lead to a wide range of benefits, including improved productivity and efficiency, as well as the creation of new jobs in fields such as robotics engineering and maintenance.
Machine learning is another field that is set to play a significant role in shaping the future. Machine learning is a subset of AI that involves training computers to learn from data and make predictions or decisions based on that data. The future of machine learning is likely to see it being used in an ever-increasing range of applications, from fraud detection to personalized recommendations. Machine learning will also play a critical role in advancing the field of AI, allowing AI systems to become more intelligent and better able to understand and respond to the needs of their users.
In conclusion, the future of artificial intelligence, robotics, and machine learning is very exciting, with the potential to bring about significant advancements in a wide range of fields.
However, whilst this is all true, there are potential massive challenges to be faced along the way. And, although the benefits of these technologies could far outweigh the costs, leading to a future that is more productive, efficient, and interconnected, the potential threat, is the end of the human race.

So, this is why in this week’s Black Spy Podcast, that Carlton answers listeners questions relating to various aspects of Russia’s geo-political manoeuvrings, its war in the Ukraine, the historical context resulting from the post world War Two status as a victor, and the never ending cold conflict with the USA and the ‘West’.

The Black Spy Podcast, Season 14, Episode 0004
In this week's Black Spy Podcast Carlton continues discussing the world’s many geo-political issues affecting us today with Dan the man.

Is Britain Corrupt (Part 2)
The Black Spy Podcast

Is Britain Corrupt (Part 2)
The Black Spy Podcast, Season 18, Episode 0009
This week's Black Spy Podcast asks the question: Is Britain, and indeed the West, corrupt?
During part two of this fascinating discussion, Carlton King and Dr. Rachel Taylor suggest that what is all important is the definition and perception of what corruption is. The Black Spy Podcast team argue that corruption involves the abuse of power for personal gain, encompassing both overt acts, such as bribery, and more subtle forms, such as cronyism or undue influence.
So, although there are, in Britain and in many Western nations, robust legal frameworks, independent judiciaries, and a semblance of a free media, supposedly contributing to transparency and accountability, it can not be taken for granted that these measures work. Hence, although the UK has bodies like the the National Audit Office and parliamentary committees tasked with scrutinizing public spending and governance questions, the issue remains live.
Western countries often rank relatively high on indices like Transparency International’s Corruption Perceptions Index, reflecting lower levels of perceived corruption compared to many other regions. But is this correct?
Criticisms of corruption in the West often center on systemic issues rather than overt illegality. Examples of this include lobbying, where wealthy individuals or corporations wield disproportionate influence over policy-making and opportunities for enrichment. This raises ethical concerns, even if it adheres to legal frameworks. The "revolving door" between politics and private industry is another area of lack of scrutiny, as it can blur lines between public service and private interests.
Furthermore, scandals such as the 2009 UK parliamentary expenses controversy or financial misconduct exposed during the 2008 economic crisis demonstrate these vulnerabilities. Similarly, some argue that offshore tax havens linked to Western jurisdictions enable global financial corruption.
Hence, in conclusion, while Britain and the West exhibit relatively low levels of overt corruption, systemic practices and scandals often come to light that suggest that the region is not immune to its own ethical and accountability challenges.
Moreover, the Black Spy Podcast team note that perceptions of corruption often depend on the accepted societal norms, expectations, and evolving definitions of those compiling corruption indices.

Armageddon!
Or will we survive to a new multi-polar World Order (Part 1)
The Black Spy Podcast, Season 14, Episode 0007
This week's Black Spy Podcast is another in the series of Carlton’s Critical Thinking series and in this episode he poses the question: ‘Is the United States capable of sharing power as it’s out performed economically and industrially and thereby is required to relinquish the role of sole super power gained after the fall of the Soviet Union?’ In short, can US governments and power brokers, accept the loss of their unipolar hegemony, or will it bring the world system tumbling down.
Are we on the road to Armageddon. .
Carlton analysis takes account of the wars around the world, honing in on The Ukraine and NATO against Russia, Israel, supported by the US, UK, France Germany and Jordan, in conflict with Palestinians, and the Iranian ‘axis of resistance’, The move towards war by the US supporting Taiwan against the People’s Republic of China, as well as the economic ears of sanctions and restricts undertaken by the US and the growth of BRICS to combat these economic threats, leading to the decline of the US Dollar as the world's reserve currency.
Carlton poses the question will extremely dangerous miss calculations be made leading to an apocalypse?
Again this week’s the Black Spy Podcast provides its listeners with an enlightened, entertaining and interesting weltanschauung.

BREXIT - This is what Leavers voted for! (Part )
The Black Spy Podcast, Series 9, Episode 0008
Brexit was arguably the greatest instance of self-harm undertaken by a nation in the modern era that did not involve warfare.
And now, the primary initial architect, Nigel Farage, complains that Brexit has been a failure. Yes, like a snake oil salesman Farage argues he knows what would have made Brexit a success. And could easily have implemented these 'sunlight upland policies, albeit he does not state what they would have been. However, like all the Brexit salesmen and women who have subsequently slivered away - Boris Johnson, David Frost, Michael Gove, Kate Hoey, Dominic Cummings, Gisela Stuart and Daniel Hannan - they take no responsibility for the disaster.
Carlton and Firgas assess the lies told, outside of the primary massive disingenuous lie regarding the whole sail deportation of so called immigrants from the UK that Brexit would bring about. Many Brexit votes believed that Brexit would mean the deportation of Black and Brown Britons. Indeed back early 2016 Carlton argued in his YouTube podcast, that Brexit would mean more Black and Brown immigrants, as Europeans left Britain, not less.
In part one of this two part podcast, this episode explores the geo-political lies put daily to a British population who knew nothing of the EU's positive aspects and framework.
So, please listen, consider and feel free to contact the Black Spy to challenge the analysis he espouses.
