In this episode of The Sunday Roast, recorded on Sunday 11th May, Phil Carroll, Kevin Hornsby, and Charles Archer return with a packed agenda as they unpack a truly historic week. From the Vatican to Washington, Westminster to Wall Street, there’s no shortage of headlines.
They begin with a landmark moment: the Catholic Church announces its first American-born Pope, Cardinal Robert Francis Prevost, now Pope Leo XIV, bringing a message of unity from the heart of St. Peter’s Basilica. Across the Atlantic, Donald Trump’s controversial proposal to reopen Alcatraz sparks debate, while a major US-UK trade deal reshapes the automotive and agricultural landscapes with sweeping tariff changes.
On the home front, Labour's UK-India trade deal gets mired in political miscommunication despite clear economic benefits. VE Day 80 is commemorated across Britain, but not everyone pauses for reflection—Phil shares an amusing moment from the supermarket.
In the markets, the team highlights this week's movers including Symphony Environmental, Mosman Oil and Gas, Surface Transforms, Empyrean Energy, and Mast Energy Developments—whose CEO Pieter Krügel joins for an exclusive update.
They also discuss Conroy Gold’s latest antimony discovery and Alien Metals’ drilling progress at Elizabeth Hill. With central banks adjusting interest rates, gold and silver diverging, and AIM showing signs of revival, the team explores where smart money might be heading.
In sport, McLaren’s Oscar Piastri continues his winning streak in Miami, Arsenal crash out of the Champions League, and Manchester United set up a dramatic Europa League final showdown with Spurs.
It’s a week of firsts, flashpoints, and financial shifts—so tune in, pour yourself a coffee, and settle in for this edition of The Sunday Roast.
