Turning the heat down on a very hot topic, Lucien dives deep into the world of air conditioners, highlighting an incredible success story in the ‘Made in Saudi’ Vision 2030 journey.

BlackRocks big moves in Saudi Arabia recently, Dubai’s incredible new airport plans, a China-based food delivery app entering the Saudi market, and more.

The TWENTY30 co-hosts meet up in Hanaa’s adopted hometown of London for a special ”live” recording of TheTWENTY30 for Episode 4 from studios in the neighborhood of Hackney.

Kicking off the third episode of The TWENTY30, co-hosts Lucien and Hanaa consult a magic 8 ball, the famous toy, on how the forthcoming show is going to turn out — receiving a funny answer with which you hopefully disagree (inshallah).   Then, Hanaa kicks off Episode 3’s DEEPDIVE segment, highlighting a recent interview from Mohammed Al-Jadaan, which produced a number of interesting comments on a range of topics including income tax and VAT in Saudi Arabia, the importance of open communication between government leaders and the public, and much more. The segment is part of an ongoing effort by The TWENTY30 to bring to light media items that made waves in the Arabic world but which may have been overlooked by Western media and the English-speaking world.   The hosts round out the show as always with a discussion of some interesting recent news items, including comments on Israel-Gaza and the latest there, and how the region might be impacted in the wake of Iranian strikes. The hosts discuss Ronaldo’s hot temper and flooding across Arabia including shocking images from Dubai, the IMF setting up shop in Saudi Arabia, and more.   Programming note: on Wednesday, Lucien and Hanaa will publish Episode 4 from a LIVE recording in studio from London, UK, discussing Vision 2030’s “report card” and much more!   Like The TWENTY30?
