He’s the most streamed artist on the planet and will headline the Super Bowl halftime show – so, who is Bad Bunny? 

The star dubbed the 'King of Latin Trap’ has become a household name across the US and Latin America – but his political stance and decision to cancel concerts over fears they would be targeted by immigration raids has caused controversy. 

Niall is joined by Anamaria Sayre, co-host of Alt.Latino, curator and producer for NPR’s Tiny Desk Concerts, to understand Bad Bunny’s career to date and what could be next.

The NHS is warning of a worst-case scenario over Christmas as an "unprecedented wave of super flu" drives infections across the country.  

An average of 2,660 patients were in hospital a day with flu last week - the highest ever for this time of year and up 55% on the week before.  

There is no peak in sight - so what's caused the predominant H3N2 strain to emerge and can the NHS cope with the extra pressure?  

Niall is joined by NHS GP and health educator Dr Raj Arora and Sky's science correspondent Thomas Moore.

Kiki Marriott is one of the thousands of people in the UK whose life has spiralled out of control because of gambling addiction. 

However, research has shown that while people from ethnic minorities like Kiki are actually less likely to gamble than their white counterparts – they are more likely to suffer harm from gambling and less likely to seek help. 

Why is this? And what can be done to help those most in need feel more comfortable with getting support? 

Niall is joined by Kiki and Sky News correspondent Emma Birchley.

Earlier this year, Donald Trump launched a series of punitive tariffs that in turn ignited a trade war that has changed the way we look at the established global economy.  

As we head towards the first anniversary of Trump’s second term in office, what has been the impact of those tariffs both in the USA and around the world? 

Niall is joined by Sky’s economics and data editor, Ed Conway, who has been on the road to see how Trump’s tariffs have affected everyone from small businesses to global conglomerates.

“Too many women and babies are not getting the safe, compassionate care they deserve.”  

The starkest of warnings has been issued by the president of the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists, Professor Ranee Thakar, about the failures in maternity services across the country. 

A new Sky documentary, Birth Trauma: The women who weren’t listened to, tells the stories of three women who were failed by the NHS.  

But why is maternity care so bad in the UK? And what can be done to improve the experiences of women and babies? 

Niall is joined by Leah Hazard, a practising NHS midwife and bestselling author of Hard Pushed: A Midwife’s Story, to understand what leads to negative birth experiences and what changes she hopes a national inquiry will recommend.
