This week Voice To America is back in the Ukraine. The drama around President Trump's call to Ukrainian president Zelensky continues to unfold like a soap opera on US popular media. We'll check in with our voices in Ukraine and find out how the people there see this controversy. Then, after many threats by Saudi Arabia, why haven't they retaliated for the destruction of their oil fields? We'll speak to a voice in the region and see if he can clarify a time table for the Saudis to strike back at Iran. Finally, on Change Is Hard, we're doing it for the kids... again. But just as the public began to see the light, the powers that be decide it's time to sink even lower.

This week, President Trump responded to Iran's alleged drone attack by sending US troops to Saudi Arabia. We'll check in with our Iranian voice and try to determine what Iran's next move will be. Then, we're off to Europe where Trump may have offered a quid pro quo in exchange for information regarding Joe Biden's son's business dealings in the Ukraine. We speak to Natalia in the Ukraine and see how their government is handling the story. Finally, on Change Is Hard, we're going full taboo as Justin Trudeau plays dress-up yet again. This time, he's gone full blackface. We'll analyze the fallout and relive some of Trudeau's most famous CIH moments.

This week, oil pumping stations in Saudi Arabia fell victim to drone attacks. The Iranian Houthis claimed responsibility for the attack. Is this a game changer? We'll head into Iran to find out if this will be the straw that breaks the camel's back between the US and Iran. Then, we're off to Israel where a major election is set to take place on Tuesday. We'll head into Israel and find out what Trump is doing to support his buddy Bibi.

This week, UK prime minister Boris Johnson's Brexit deadline is stymied by parliament. As of right now, a no-deal Brexit is illegal. We speak to Mark in Europe about what BoJo plans to do to circumvent the new laws. Then we're headed to the AfPak region, where President Trump has cancelled a meeting between himself and Taliban leaders that was scheduled close to the anniversary of 9/11. We speak to Rashed in Pakistan and find out which side has a better poker hand. Finally, on Change Is Hard, we'll be discussing Kamala Harris' selective hearing, an Australian vegan's worst nightmare and Anderson Cooper's selective memory.

Sep 1, 2019

This week, UK prime minister Boris Johnson suspended parliament for the next five weeks and the British are outrage. Is this how he plans to execute Brexit? We'll check in with Mark in Europe and see if a suspension of parliament is indeed a coup or something rather benign. Then, the US is back bombing in Northern Syria. Why is the US suddenly back in the country? Is this a response to Turkey, Russia or terrorism? We'll speak to Radwan in Syria and find out what the endgame may be for the US. And on Change Is Hard, it's hurricane season and that means we'll be eagerly awaiting the first of many live coverage news actor fails.
