🚨New Conflicted Q&A Ep🚨 Conflicted Community Q&A - From Bunker Busters To Sahel Battlefields Thomas (@ConflictedThom) and Aimen (@AimenDean) return to tackle a barrage of listener questions in this special Q&A episode, offering unparalleled insights into the ever-shifting landscape of Middle Eastern geopolitics. We begin with a deep dive into the recent US strikes on Iran, where Aimen details the real impact of "Bunker Buster" bombs on Iranian nuclear facilities. Did they cause the destruction that many in the US government are claiming? The pair then discuss your questions about the prospect of a more comprehensive Middle East peace deal, outlining the critical conditions, including Iran's nuclear ambitions and its ‘triple-H’ network of proxies. Aimen then sheds light on the complex negotiations involving Syria and Lebanon, revealing the potential for non-aggression pacts, albeit with significant concessions and challenges posed by entrenched ideological factions. The focus shifts to the ongoing humanitarian crisis in Gaza, the contentious rise of Israeli-backed "popular forces" there, before moving on to the broader theological principles that justify jihad in response to state-sponsored injustice. Finally, we expand our geographical scope to the increasingly dire situation in the Sahel region of West Africa, where jihadist groups like JNIM are rapidly gaining ground.

Always exciting to see a UK show be featured on the US Apple podcast homepage, even more exciting when its one of ours at @messageheard...

Today marks the 20th anniversary of the 7/7 attacks. On July 7th 2005, four bombs ripped through the maze of train tunnels underneath central London, killing 52 people and injuring over 700 others. 20 years on, this event marks the start of two decades where terrorism, and the perceived threat of it, would change the way in which the UK thinks about its own security, societal integration, and the way in which it conducts itself around the globe. Hosted by @ConflictedThom , co-host of the award winning podcast Conflicted, this series will form a larger part of the Conflicted universe. One of Small’s key sources for this series is Aimen Dean, his Conflicted co-host and the aforementioned spy within Al-Qaeda who had a significant part in the UK intelligence response to 7/7.

🚨New Conflicted Ep (Documentary Series)🚨 7/7: The Inside Story – A Thursday in July • Episode 1 On a regular Thursday in July 2005, the peaceful morning air was shattered as four bombs ripped through the underground in central London. 52 people were killed, over 700 others were injured. London had never seen bombings of this magnitude before, never with this coordination. In the first episode of this special series of Conflicted, we hear from survivors, emergency workers and a former Al Qaeda spy as we recount the heart-pounding and tumultuous events of that fateful Thursday in July.  It sets up a series where we will investigate the last two decades of terrorism and counter terrorism in the UK. How did it develop? What were the motivations behind? And why did terrorism, and the perceived threat of it, change the way in which the UK thinks about its own citizens? pod.link/1443491069/epi…

Once again another fantastic show in partnership with our friends at Wondery, I am really proud to see '7/7: The Inside Story' crack the top 10 of the True Crime charts! @messageheard 🤝 @WonderyMedia This is a proud moment for @MHconflicted as it moves from not just being a show, but a distinct umbrella brand that allows us to be more experimental and ambitious in what we make. We have an ever growing large and loyal audience and we've been making Conflicted fo 6 - 7 years now, so the ability for us to add stand alone multi part audio documentaries that still feel 'Conflicted-y' is a huge new string to our bow, as well as having the vote of confidence and support from Wondery as to its quality!

@TheJakeWarren @Copa90 @iHeartRadio Let’s Go SDFC ⚽️

📢 Well this is a very exciting announcement! When @messageheard and @Copa90 signed our partnership, we did it with the intention of really shaking up the footballing podcast landscape, and with this first marquee show in conjunction with @iHeartRadio I truly believe we've done just that... You've watched 'Sunderland Till I Die', 'Welcome To Wrexham' and 'Drive To Survive' - well now its time to listen to - 'San Diego FC: Behind The Flow'! We've had the privilege of being embedded behind the scenes of the newest @MLS franchise club @sandiegofc for over the last year, and the team are still there immersed today. The show is a first of its kind and is in 2 parts; the first being a 10-episode documentary podcast giving an inside look at what it takes to establish a major new footballing powerhouse, from nothing, and then transition to covering the remainder of SDFC’s inaugural MLS season in real time weekly! I've attached the full press release and link to trailer in the post below and I hope my words at least semi capture the breadth and ambition of undertaking a global podcasting first like this. "We are thrilled to partner with iHeartPodcasts and COPA90 to bring the incredible story of San Diego FC to life in this groundbreaking podcast," said Jake Warren, CEO of Message Heard. "This project is not only a first in podcasting, but it's a testament to the power of audio to connect fans with the heart and soul of a club. We believe this immersive experience will set a new standard for sports storytelling and deepen the relationship between SDFC, its passionate supporters and the wider community."
