Hungarian-American billionaire George Soros has once again been in the news, after figures on the American right linked him to the prosecution of Donald Trump.

Elsewhere in the podcast, we looked at misinformation around the arrest of Nicola Sturgeon's husband, and explained what was going on with the emergency alerts which will pop up on millions of people's phones on Sunday.
