Guns & Ammo looks into why students have been bringing guns into schools in America; if arming teachers is a viable solution; as well as delving into the toxins found in modern ammunition that has caused birth defects and diseases in other parts of the world such as Pakistan (Ep 3). Love & Rockets (Ep 4) follows up by exploring the ramifications of China’s one-child policy which has resulted in an estimated 50 million more men than women, making marriage difficult for many Chinese men; while Spain’s government austerity measures have taken their toll on education, healthcare, and social welfare initiatives due to economic strife (Ep 5).
In Winners & Losers we travel to Mauritania where weight plays an important role when it comes to beauty standards; Utah where polygamist leader Warren Jeffs continues to control his town despite being serving life in prison; as well as India where deep class divides remain evident (Ep 6). Corruption (Ep 7) takes us back to China where massive buildings remain vacant—a potential real estate disaster waiting to happen—and Egypt which toppled one authoritarian regime only to find itself ruled by another.
The next few episodes look at addiction in Indonesia (where average smoking age is six) and Mexico (where a heroine addict attempts recovery through voodoo); Fighting Chances in Senegal where Laamb wrestling reigns supreme amid climate change damage done throughout Venice; Gangs & Oil which investigates Chicago’s gun epidemic and Nigeria’s oil industry issues caused by pirates; before wrapping up with The Hermit Kingdom (Ep 10), which focuses on North Korea’s unique use of basketball as a means of foreign relations.
