Summary
This week in the US the Trump administration was forced to dump plans for a slush fund to compensate MAGA loyalists, and not even an f-bomb directed at Israel’s Prime Minister could shift the dial on peace negotiations in the middle-east.

More than 55 million people are living with some form of dementia worldwide, and here in Australia, the disease is now our leading cause of death. Anthropologist Teun Toobesh has been travelling the world to understand the best way to help sufferers. Together with Jonathan de Jong he's turned this experience into an eye-opening documentary Human Forever. Like father, like son; Nigerian musician Seun Kuti is continuing the family business, leading the band Egypt 80 established by Afrobeat pioneer and political firebrand Fela Kuti.
