In this episode, host Bidemi Ologundebreaks down the week of Feb 2–8, 2026, when an ancient idea, the Olympic Truce, collided with modern reality: AI-built platforms leaking identities, satellites and cyber defenses becoming battlefield "terrain," sanctions escalating into lawfare, and ceasefire language clashing with ongoing violence. What happens when "trust" becomes the scarcest resource online? Who controls connectivity in war zones: states or private networks? When do sanctions stop being diplomacy and start reshaping international justice? And in an era of drones, deepfakes, and cyberattacks, what does a "truce" even mean?
On the Bid Picture Podcast, I talk about big ideas, and Lembrih is one of them. Born from Ghanaian roots, Lembrih is building an ethical marketplace for Black and African artisans: makers of heritage-rich products often overlooked online. The vision is simple: shop consciously, empower communities, and share the stories behind the craft. Lembrih is live on Kickstarter now, and your pledge helps build the platform. Visit lembrih.com, or search “Lembrih” on Kickstarter.
