Martin MakepeaceHOST
It's a very interesting stat, Rich, because did you know that in 2026, in the first six months of 2026, do you know how much investment was...
Martin MakepeaceHOST
in the Balearic Islands? There you go.
Martin MakepeaceHOST
Have a little guess, mate.
Martin MakepeaceHOST
How much investment? Go on.
Richie PriorHOST
In the
Martin MakepeaceHOST
first, how many months? No, the first six months.
Martin MakepeaceHOST
So the first half of 2026, how much was invested in the hotel sector in the Balearic Islands? Okay.
Martin MakepeaceHOST
Oh, stab in the dark.
Bobby CapucciHOST
Oh, well, what do you know? Arms trafficking, huh? I wonder if the legacy media is ever going to make you hip to it.
Bobby CapucciHOST
The pair came under heavy surveillance by Spanish cops while visiting a variety of hotels in Balearics.
Bobby CapucciHOST
The Irishmen were allegedly organizing logistics and vehicle repairs at truck stops throughout Europe during the summer of 2020.
Bobby CapucciHOST
Each member had their own unique EnroChat identity, including the three Irish truck drivers who went by the names B.B., Owl Betty, and Ironic Sugar.
Marti BuckleyHOST
You're doing your part.
Marti BuckleyHOST
In the east of the country, in Cataluña, Valencia, the Balearic Islands, parts of Aragón, the sweet of the season is the panillet, are these kind of small, round cookie-type things with ground almond sugar and egg, famously rolled in pine nuts, but you can find, like, coconut or quince versions.
Marti BuckleyHOST
And the theory there is the name comes from panellons, which are little breads that were once left as offerings for the dead.
Marti BuckleyHOST
And, you know, that really points to like what this whole food tradition is all about.
PaulHOST
So what's been happening is not much.
PaulHOST
I'm in Manuka, in the Balearics.
PaulHOST
The Balearics have been hit heavily with a lot of weather issues.
PaulHOST
We kind of avoided it here, thankfully.
PaulHOST
We had thunder and lightning, heavy rain, downpour, but nothing like what Ibiza had.
Mark GilesHOST
It's Jerez in Jerez.
Mark GilesHOST
And then we're away in Mallorca and the Balearic Islands on Monday night.
Mark GilesHOST
Matt, you're going to Jerez.
Mark GilesHOST
What are your thoughts?
Mark GilesHOST
Monday is a bank holiday.
Mark GilesHOST
So that's why it's possibly there's three or four games on the Monday.
Mark GilesHOST
A ludicrous kick-off time even then, though, for travelling all the way over to the Balearic Islands.
Mark GilesHOST
It's a big test, yeah.
Laura PolitiGUEST
I think I'll go.
Laura PolitiGUEST
And, um, cause I really wanted to go to the Balearic islands, not the Balearic, um, the, um, Now I can't, it's blinking.
Laura PolitiGUEST
Tenerife, the islands off the coast of Africa.
Laura PolitiGUEST
And it's like a Spanish colonized islands, unfortunately.
ZakGUEST
The tourism over here is, you know, very present.
ZakGUEST
The Balearic Islands need tourism to work.
ZakGUEST
Otherwise, it's very, very seasonal.
ZakGUEST
You know, you've got the summer season, which is always there's always many people coming to the island from loads of different places of the world.
Richard VaughanHOST
The second biggest is the province of Barcelona.
Richard VaughanHOST
The richest province in Spain is the Balearic Islands.
Richard VaughanHOST
And the poorest province in Spain is...
Richard VaughanHOST
It's a difficult question.
Katerina FerreraHOST
Pisa fought to protect routes, obtain privileges, and extend influence.
Katerina FerreraHOST
Its fleets took part in campaigns in Sicily and the Balearic Islands, while the city competed with other maritime powers, especially Genoa, because it's so close by.
Katerina FerreraHOST
Wealth reached Pisa through commerce and through warfare.
Katerina FerreraHOST
That matters as we enter the cathedral because one of the city's military expeditions became part of the building's own foundation.

In Spain, communities along the Mediterranean coast are recovering from severe flooding caused by Storm Adam, with transport and infrastructure disruption expected to continue.
speaker_0NARRATOR
On October 17th, Dana Storm Adam brought widespread torrential rainfall and flash flooding to eastern and southern Spain, particularly affecting Valencia, Alicante, Catalonia and the Balearic Islands.
speaker_0NARRATOR
According to Spanish government sources, some areas received more than 700 millimetres of rainfall.
speaker_0NARRATOR
By October 20th, as the storm system began to ease, at least five people had been killed in Spain.
speaker_0NARRATOR
The disaster triggered major protests and accusations of government negligence, particularly over delayed emergency warnings, inadequate disaster preparedness and failures in the emergency response.
speaker_0NARRATOR
However, the Authority's more proactive response to Storm Adam including the early issuance of emergency alerts, precautionary restrictions and stay-at-home orders, combined with the substantially lower death toll, has likely reduced the risk of a similar public backlash.
speaker_0NARRATOR
Disruption from the storm is likely to continue during the October 22nd to 29th period, particularly in severely affected areas around Valencia and Alicante, in Catalonia and across the Balearic Islands.
speaker_0NARRATOR
Flood damage to regional roads may result in prolonged transport disruption and longer journey times.
