  • E55: Yanis Varoufakis in Conversation with Jeffrey Sachs on the Six Global Crises Confronting Humanity
    Jeffrey Sachs and Yanis Varoufakis worked together a decade ago to prevent Europe from harming itself by crushing Greece. They failed. Since then, Europe’s self-harming policies exacerbated by a lethal dependence on, and servility to, the US have had nasty repercussions for Ukraine, Palestine as well as Europe’s relations with China. Now that Trump is back, with Europe’s Green Deal already abandoned, the world is facing the perfect storm: intense trade (and thus class) wars, a mounting Cold War with China, an ultra-hot war in Ukraine, a heart-wrenching genocide in Palestine, and an accelerating climate emergency.  In this episode, Jeffrey Sachs and Yanis Varoufakis get back together again to reminisce, to take stock of a world spinning out of control and, crucially, to propose tangible solutions that we must campaign for today.

  • E54: Le Pen Ban: Stopping the Far Right — or Fueling It? With Yanis Varoufakis, Glenn Greenwald & David Broder
    Marine Le Pen, leader of France’s far right and a top contender for the presidency, has just been banned from running after a corruption conviction. Is this a legitimate ruling — or lawfare: the weaponisation of the legal system to block political opponents? Join Yanis Varoufakis, award-winning journalist Glenn Greenwald, and Jacobin’s Europe editor David Broder for a live discussion hosted by Mehran Khalili.  We’ll break down the Le Pen ruling, look at how courts are used to sideline opposition figures in Europe and beyond, and ask: Does barring candidates actually strengthen the far right? Is lawfare becoming the establishment’s go-to tool to silence dissent? And if we don’t challenge it now, what comes next?

  • E53: Ukraine, Rearmament and Europe’s Dead End — Q+A with Yanis Varoufakis
    Yanis Varoufakis recently called Europe’s rearmament a catastrophe in the making — and laid out a bold peace plan for Ukraine. Now, he’s taking your questions head-on: about Ukraine, the EU’s failed war strategy, and what a real path to peace and sovereignty could look like. Whether you agree or not, this is the debate Europe refuses to have. Hosted by Mehran Khalili.

  • E01 Counter Stream: Trump’s Power Grab, Ukraine’s Exploitation and Europe’s Identity Crisis
    Welcome to Counter Stream—DiEM25’s unfiltered monthly dive into the stories shaping our world that mainstream media ignores or distorts. In this powerful new episode, Julijana Zita is joined by Kinza Saleem for a wide-ranging conversation that connects the dots between Trump’s authoritarian circus, global resource grabs, and the crumbling illusions of European identity. From Trump’s self-coronation and war on democracy to the brutal deportations and executive orders that target the most vulnerable, we examine how psychological warfare and spectacle are being used to desensitise and divide. We look at the US-Russia deal-making over Ukraine exposing the new phase of imperialism: economic colonisation wrapped in “reconstruction.” Meanwhile, Congo burns in silence. China rises with vision and strategy. Europe cries at its own irrelevance. And the far right surges—while the left, once again, stands to pick up the pieces. This is not business as usual.

  • E52: DeepSeek, AI, and the New Cold War — with Yanis Varoufakis and Arnaud Bertrand
    DeepSeek has upended the AI industry with open-source models that rival OpenAI’s GPT-4, shaking the global tech and financial order. But its rise also raises urgent questions about security, economic power, and AI’s future. In this live discussion, Yanis Varoufakis and Malaysia-based entrepreneur and commentator Arnaud Bertrand will explore the fallout, hosted by Mehran Khalili. How does DeepSeek’s model challenge monopolistic “cloud capital” like Amazon’s Alexa? Does it prove that cutting-edge AI no longer requires vast computational resources? And with its data stored on Chinese servers, is AI becoming the new frontline in U.S.-China tensions? Beyond the tech, this is a battle over power—financial, political, and military. What happens next? Join us live, be part of the conversation, and send in your questions!
