Duration - 59:25[A #video #podcast about #Cuba from the podcast team #CubaAnalysisPodcasts]

He stresses the human consequences of these measures: Cuba’s infant mortality rate has doubled, and some 7,000 shipping containers carrying essential food and medical supplies are currently being prevented from unloading on the island.

Duration - 1:05:51In this episode of Cuba Analysis, #HelenYaffe sits down with Cuban Ambassador Ismara Mercedes Vargas Walter to discuss recent and escalating threats from the #US government under #Trump.

#Video - Interview with investigative journalist Alan MacLeod about #InformationWarfare
https://peertube.world/w/bKNP2VH3dDbNkUCUM8YbNpfrom #CubaAnalysisPodcasts
Feb. 12, 2026In this episode of the Cuba Analysis Podcast, we talk to Alan MacLeod about the #Trump administration’s use of #propaganda, #misinformation and psychological warfare to facilitate regime change in #Cuba and #Venezuela. MacLeod is a researcher and investigative journalist for MintPress News, and author of ‘Bad News from Venezuela: 20 Years of Fake News and Misreporting’, based on his PhD thesis.
Through interviewing the western journalists posted in Caracas, MacLeod’s research showed that they acted as ‘ideological foot soldiers’ for #US imperialism, deliberately manufacturing consent for #RegimeChange. MacLeod tells us how one journalist, who he names in the podcast, admitted to planting fake news about Venezuela, describing himself as ‘mercenary for hire’.

Cuba Analysis Podcasts and Belly of the Beast #video channels moved to a new server
A week or two ago the admin of Peertube.wtf did an upgrade which brought down the server. Since then, he has brought it back up, but it has not been working reliably.
So I have bought a domain name called peertube.world, and I have migrated the Cuba Analysis Podcasts and Belly of the Beast video channels to it. It is hosted on a monthly-fee server, instead of a voluntary-donation server, so I am hopeful that this will work better. 🤞
New locations:

from #CubaAnalysisPodcasts
https://peertube.wtf/w/feLLj41q1ov8j5G3SBZXbKThousands of Cubans rose early this morning to honor the 32 compatriots killed by #US troops during the violent abduction of Venezuelan President #NicolásMaduro on January 3, 2026. Their remains were flown into #Havana, and honoured with a ceremony there before being carried along Boyeros Avenue—lined with mourners—to the Ministry of the Revolutionary Armed Forces. People waited for hours to pay tribute to the fallen Cubans, despite the heavy rain which swept in, filing past the coffins in silence and sorrow.
Cuba Analysis co-host #HelenYaffe was there as the procession passed and spoke with attendees about why they had participated and what this moment means for them and for #Cuba.

Video - Cuba Analysis exclusive: Ana Maldonado reports from Caracas on the US attackhttps://peertube.wtf/w/mqBu1tiHNXKBZTgG4gsQ3b
[A #video #podcast about #Venezuela, hosted on #PeerTube.wtf, from the podcast team #CubaAnalysisPodcasts]
Maldonado describes the experience of the nighttime bombings on the 2 to 3 January and the widespread destruction to antennas, military facilities, ports and airports, as well as the popular mobilisation in response. On 4 January, Venezuelans took to the streets en masse to protest the attack and demand #Maduro is returned. She points to the emotional resilience of Venezuelans who refuse to accept foreign intervention.
Ana responds directly to the Trump’s lies in his 3 January press conference, affirming that #US forces do not have a presence on the ground, that acting President #DelcyRodriguez and the Venezuelan government are not collaborating with the #Trump administration...

Interview with Mitchell Valdés Sosa, Director of Cuba’s Neuroscience Centre
[A #video #podcast about #Cuba, hosted on #PeerTube.wtf, from the podcast team #CubaAnalysisPodcasts]
https://peertube.wtf/w/vGASpsM3siYhR1zqxioUmb
Leading Cuban neuroscientist, Mitchell Valdés Sosa joins CA to discuss Cuba’s commitments to sovereignty, #socialism and #science. He explains how the National Centre for Scientific Research, founded by Fidel Castro in 1965, trained Cubans in #biomedical sciences, and incubated multiple research and development centres, including the #Neuroscience Centre that he directs. Cuba’s unique state-founded, state-owned #biotechnology sector... emerged from this process in the 1980s.
Looking to the future, we discuss Cuba’s three innovative treatments in the pipeline for Alzheimer’s... Most advanced is NeuroEPO, which has shown extremely promising results in clinical trials, with very few side effects and should be available to Cuban patients in 2026.
