What a fantastic episode. Fiona knows so much about this subject and talks so clearly about it. It's incredible really. Brendan's questions are always to the point, and can I also say that, now that he mentioned (dis)Grace Lavery's book, I think his review of that book was absolutely stunningly written and hilarious? Thank you so much, the both of you.

I particularly liked the later parts of this interview. With the suggestions about unintended consequences of the attempts to censor language and thought. "There must be something to it if.. speech is being shut down"! Another ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ interview.

Like your show, but the ad that blasts through just after saying about that poor mans demise was a bit distasteful

Fascinating talk. Good to know the FSU exists. I suspect the particularly vitriolic harassment of Kathleen Stock is driven by misogyny from the male trans activists.

Excellent interview, Carl Heneghan articulately explains the folly of lockdowns and other mainstream policies to “fight” COVID over the last two years.

The Lord Sumption episode is a ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ well reasoned and thought provoking critique of the way the government has handled the Covid-19 issue. A damning evaluation of the way that the public have been abused.
