  • Can Superman save us now? – The Man of Steel vs the Age of Trump
    On July 11, Superman flies back into cinemas in his third reboot – but this time, he’s different. Director James Gunn promises a beacon of hope, kindness, and decency, a sharp contrast to the grim hero we last saw. How will a reborn idealistic Man of Steel land in the most cynical American moment of the modern era? How has Superman changed in his 87 years in comics, movies and radio? And can he save the American Way from a real-life supervillain in the White House? Ian Gordon, author of Superman: The Persistence of an American Icon ,  joins fellow comics addict Andrew Harrison in The Bunker’s Fortress of Solitude.  IAN GORDON’S SUPERMAN STARTER LIST • Action Comics #1 [[ ]]  (June 1938)  • “Must There Be a Superman?” Superman #247 (January 1972) – In Superman: The Greatest Stories Ever Told • Superman (1978) the film • “Whatever Happened to the Man of Tomorrow?”  (Superman #423 and Action Comics #583, September 1986) • Kingdom Come (1996) • All Star Superman #1-12 (2005) • Support us on Patreon for early episodes and more. • We are sponsored by Indeed.

  • Are planes really crashing more often?
    Mass fatalities in the Air India crash and the collision of a passenger flight and a US Army helicopter over the Potomac have triggered fears that serious aviation accidents are becoming more frequent. But are they really? John Walton, editor of independent aviation journalism site TheUpFront, talks to Andrew Harrison about why panics like this start, how safe air travel really is, and how this high-emissions industry is facing up to a low-emissions future.  • Read John Walton on air travel for general readers as well as insiders at TheUpFront.  • Support us on Patreon for early episodes and more. • We are sponsored by Indeed.

  • The Epstein Files – How much do we actually know?
    Jeffrey Epstein is dead, but the questions around his life, his crimes, and his powerful friends remain. In 2024, new court documents were unsealed, revealing more about Epstein’s abuse yet much of the content remains redacted, leading to conspiracy theories, speculation – and social media battles between Elon Musk and President Trump. Today in The Bunker, Gavin Esler is joined by investigative reporter Adam Klasfeld, editor-in-chief of All Rise News, to unpack what we know  and what remains obscured about the Epstein files.

  • America vs. Iran – What does Trump actually want?
    Donald Trump once promised to keep America out of endless wars. But less than 200 days into his second term, the US military has carried out airstrikes on Iran. Following Israel’s Operation Rising Lion, the president gave orders to target Iranian nuclear facilities. His cabinet denies any ambition for regime change – but Trump’s own words suggest otherwise. So what’s really going on? Today in The Bunker, Alex von Tunzelmann is joined by Dr Sanam Vakil, Director of the MENA Programme at Chatham House, to unpack the latest escalation in the Middle East and what the president’s endgame might be. • We are sponsored by Indeed.
