The French parliamentary elections have emerged as a key focus for several podcast episodes, with the potential rise of the far-right National Rally party led by Jordan Bardella a central concern.

The episodes explore the strategies employed by President Emmanuel Macron and other parties to block the National Rally from gaining power, as well as the broader implications of the far-right's performance for issues like France's aid to Ukraine and political stability in the country.

The episodes also touch on the UK's housing crisis and its potential impact on the upcoming general election, as well as the challenges faced by mainstream parties in maintaining voter support amidst growing disillusionment.
