Richard PembrokeGUEST
And we chatted to her right at the beginning of this journey, and she gave us some really wise words.
Richard PembrokeGUEST
And she said, look, expand of course, and do everything you want to, but just remember that every time you expand with a charity, an NGO, and a foundation, you also expand your requirement to spend more time raising money and less time delivering what you want to do.
Richard PembrokeGUEST
And that sort of stuck with us.
Richard PembrokeGUEST
And we actually feel now that in terms of size, you know, we've got 350, sometimes 400 students a week at the education centre.
Satyaki VarunHOST
What happens to democracy in countries that become heavily dependent on foreign aid? This is the central question of Dependency Politics, a new book by Ryan Dublonsky.
Satyaki VarunHOST
Drawing on more than six years of research, the book explores the relationships between foreign donors, NGOs, politicians, and voters, and how these relationships shape political behavior and democratic accountability.
Satyaki VarunHOST
Ryan Jablonski is an associate professor of political science at the London School of Economics and Political Science.
Satyaki VarunHOST
His research primarily focuses on the political economy of public service delivery in low-income democracies with particular interests in foreign aid, voting behavior, elite politics, and electoral integrity.
Ryan JablonskiGUEST
Thanks, it's really a pleasure to be here.
Satyaki VarunHOST
To be honest, when I saw the title of your book, I thought it would concern international relations, developing nations, but your book focuses on how foreign aid shapes electoral behavior, and that was something really interesting.
Satyaki VarunHOST
The more we think about international aid and NGOs, we mostly think of international politics.
Satyaki VarunHOST
The lens is not so much on international, on internal or domestic politics, especially voting behavior.
Pippa HudsonHOST
Right, so once again, it's not human health today, but rather the wider question of the health of our coastline and particularly the Cape West Coast.
Pippa HudsonHOST
A huge pleasure to welcome to our outside broadcast unit, Mike Schlebach of NGO Protect the West Coast.
Pippa HudsonHOST
They're a group of passionate people.
Pippa HudsonHOST
Lots of them are surfers.
7 MINS LATER
Mike SchlebachGUEST
And so, yeah, we've come a long way in a fairly short space of time.
Pippa HudsonHOST
And you've achieved a lot.
Pippa HudsonHOST
For what started as a very small NGO, you've achieved a lot.
Pippa HudsonHOST
One of the things that's helped you sort of box above your weight class, I guess you can say, is that second movie you've mentioned, Mike.
John McGuirkHOST
A week when the party released a report saying that it has no identity and no one knows what it stands for.
John McGuirkHOST
It was also a week when Simon Harris, the Tóniste, decided to squash a motion at the Ardèche that would have declared the party a centre-right party, but at the same time got into a row with Ivana Bacik over the funding of NGOs.
John McGuirkHOST
Donald Trump had a bad week in the American midterms.
John McGuirkHOST
We'll talk about that.
29 MINS LATER
John McGuirkHOST
He's a bad old week, hasn't he?
Sarah RyanHOST
God, yeah.
Sarah RyanHOST
Where to begin? What do you want to start with? The NGOs or his OGs?
John McGuirkHOST
Well, let's start with poor David Higgins.
Celiwe RossGUEST
Mm-hmm.
Celiwe RossGUEST
I think that you have to think about AI, whether you're a legislator, whether you're a regulator, whether you're a company listed or not, NGO, you need to look at AI through three distinct windows in terms of impact.
Celiwe RossGUEST
So the first is the work.
Celiwe RossGUEST
And I believe AI will impact the work first.

Satyaki BaruaHOST
But your book focuses on how foreign aid shapes electoral behavior.
Satyaki BaruaHOST
And that was something really interesting.
Satyaki BaruaHOST
So the more we think about international aid and NGOs, we mostly think of international politics, right? The lens is not so much on international, on internal or domestic politics, especially voting behavior.
Satyaki BaruaHOST
So could you tell us what made you probe into this question of how aid affects domestic politics?

Joe PattersonHOST
So I asked the question at the bottom, is this sudden blue wave purely coincidental in how it fits with leaked plans for Democrats committing insurrection? Now, for those of you who missed the Alan Nathan shows that I talked about this...
Joe PattersonHOST
This came out a couple of weeks ago, Data Republican on X, this user who does a lot of NGO investigations.
Joe PattersonHOST
Well, we do have our guest here, so interrupt that thought because we're pivoting wildly over to AI.
Joe PattersonHOST
Lloyd Chapman, founder and president of the American Small Business League and the Don't Cheat Women project that supports advocacy work that aims to elevate women-owned small businesses in federal contracting.
30 MINS LATER
Joe PattersonHOST
And I was starting to describe actually in an earlier segment why this might be a orchestrated event, at least the motive behind it.
Joe PattersonHOST
Now, we have that a Republican on X.
Joe PattersonHOST
She had leaked out a few weeks ago this information about the Democratic Socialists of America and some NGOs and other groups that were plotting the overthrow of the United States government.
Joe PattersonHOST
What they needed was what happened Tuesday.
Tom LaipplyHOST
No.
Tom LaipplyHOST
We don't have anybody circle bleeping through NGOs, right? We don't have any of that either, right?
AaronHOST
No.
Tom LaipplyHOST
All right, so let's go to France.
33 MINS LATER
Tom LaipplyHOST
What did they lose that was more important than their jobs? They lost all the money they were going to make.
AaronHOST
Yep.
Tom LaipplyHOST
All the money from the NGO circle bleep, you know, give the money to the NGOs and then the NGOs give it back to your campaign.
Tom LaipplyHOST
Um, or, or they lost their insider trading and their fame and their fortune.
Trine Møller-NielsenGUEST
I've worked with someone who was an engineer and I've studied history and we did the exact same thing.
Trine Møller-NielsenGUEST
If you want to be a grant writer, that would be a good example.
Trine Møller-NielsenGUEST
I mean, you can do grant writing, but on the general academic spectrum, you could also be good at writing grants for NGOs.
Trine Møller-NielsenGUEST
Or you could, I know that there's people employed to do ethical advice on research and they have very different backgrounds, but they do the exact same job.
Trine Møller-NielsenGUEST
So that's a starting point.
