TNW Podcast: Pavel Durov’s arrest in France, concrete-based CO₂ storage, renewables in Iceland

Welcome to the new episode of the TNW Podcast — the show where we discuss the latest developments in the European technology ecosystem and feature interviews with some of the most interesting people in the industry.

In today’s episode, Linnea and Andrii talk about a silent hangar in the UK, the fate of Boeing Starliner, the detention of Pavel Durov in France, renewable energy and Iceland, and a few things in between.

You’ll also hear an interview with Andreas Saari, co-founder and co-CEO of Paebbl, a startup that — very simply speaking — stores captured CO₂ in building materials, namely cement and concrete. It’s a fascinating story, I’m so happy to share it with you.

Here are the stories and things mentioned in the episode:

• UK ‘silent hangar’ to battle-ready aircraft, vehicles amid Russian GPS assault
• NASA will bring the Starliner astronauts home next year on SpaceX’s Crew-9 mission
• How Telegram played itself
• Russian lawmakers hit back at arrest of Telegram chief Pavel Durov in France
• Iceland will tunnel into a volcano to tap into virtually unlimited geothermal power
