On this programme, we start by examining the recent leadership change at tech giant Apple, after Tim Cook announced he'll step down from his role as the company's CEO in September. He makes way for John Ternus, the company's long time hardware chief.
After that, we turn our attention to New York City , where the city's youngest mayor Zohran Mamdani recently completed 100 days in office, whilst maintaining high approval ratings. From making bus rides free, to delivering universal, free healthcare for children, we look at how Mr Mamdani's success is driving ratings for the democrats ahead of the midterms.
After the break, we take a closer look at the Hong Kong Baptist University’s Centre for Exercise Science and Medicine that opened last week, featuring state-of-the-art facilities for research in sports science.
And to wrap up the show, we learn how students can get more sleep after a survey found that 83 percent of primary school students get 8.8 hours of sleep a day, falling below international standard.
