The Women Take Over The Podcast (Again) Edition - Week 16 - 2026
from DutchNews Podcast · host DutchNews
Those who can, plan; those who can't, plan scenarios. At any rate, that seems to be how the Dutch government is preparing for the impending crisis triggered by the war in Iran and blockade of the Strait of Hormuz. It wasn't enough to stop the king and queen's visit to the other orange king in the White House going ahead: the royal couple avoided any embarrassing mishaps, unless you count the faux pas of talking about last season's coup. Three men have appeared in court accused of organising the Drents Museum heist, while three major cyberhacks at Dutch companies have exposed the private details of millions of customers across Europe. And we explain why tough new asylum laws could have unexpected and unpleasant consequences for international workers who lose their jobs.
