Steve Jobs didn’t invent the future. He made it feel inevitable. From a California garage to global godhood, this is the story of the man who turned computers into companions, products into rituals, and simplicity into a cult. But beneath the keynote charisma and polished glass lies something deeper: obsession, control, intuition, rage, and raw design philosophy that reshaped the modern world. Jobs: The Man Behind the Glass goes beyond the black turtleneck myth to uncover the ghost still flickering inside every screen. Because what he built wasn’t just a company.

It’s the $10 million heist you’ve never heard of. In a matter of months, dozens of truckloads disappeared from American highways. But what were they carrying? Nuts.

Eighty per cent of the world’s almonds are grown in the heart of California, but this journey will take you to Italy, the Spanish coast, deep under the earth and even into space.

Policing today is not what the public imagines. Beneath the uniform lies a profession suffocating under bureaucracy, political interference, and a leadership structure more concerned with optics than justice. Officers are stretched to breaking point, forced to navigate a world where insane decisions fail the most vulnerable, where criminals slip through the cracks, and where those on the front lines are left to absorb the trauma—alone.

In January 1950, eleven men walked into the Brinks Armored Car Depot in Boston and pulled off what was then the largest cash heist in American history. Wearing Halloween masks and stolen uniforms, they vanished with over $2.7 million—and left behind almost no clues. For years, it looked like they had committed the perfect crime.

Dietetics practitioners are food and nutrition experts who help people live healthier lives. They work in a variety of settings—from hospitals and research to sports, schools, nursing homes, and the food industry. Yet, despite the diversity of the populations they serve, the dietetics profession is predominantly female, white, and able-bodied. Only 2% of dietetics practitioners have a disability compared to 29% of US adults. There is an urgent need to diversify the field—especially by including practitioners with disabilities.

On a Sunday evening in December 2004, two young men were at home with their families. Both worked for the Northern Bank’s cash centre in Belfast. They heard knocks on their front doors. Within a few minutes, masked men invaded their homes, overpowered their loved ones and disabled their electronic devices. It was made clear to the two bank officials that they had a choice: do what they were told or their families would die. In the wake of the twentieth anniversary of this bizarre robbery, Glenn Patterson builds on his popular BBC podcast to shed new light on the story of the infamous heist.
