Description

What makes you a heretic? Journalist Andrew Gold believes that, in an age of group-think and tribes, we need heretics - those who use unconventional wisdom to speak out against their own groups, from cancelled comedians and radical feminists to cult defectors and vigilantes hunting deviants.


Learn from my guests how to rebel, think differently and resist social contagion. From Triggernometry's Francis Foster and the world's most cancelled man Graham Linehan to ex-Hasidic Jew Julia Haart and gender critical atheist Richard Dawkins. These are the people living with the weight of their own community's disappointment on their shoulders.

I find it always interesting how one case gets all the attention and another doesn't. Yu-ting Lin also took gold from a woman, he even hit a woman on the back of the head. Still all the attention goes to Imane Khelif. Why is that?

I'm sorry, Andrew, but as much as I am pro-Israel when it comes to this current conflict over there, this lady just sounds like a shill for Netanyahu or the Knesset. Israel hasn't done anything wrong in its entire history?! Oh, c'mon. I think she made an interesting point, still, about that ratio of civilian to aggressor death.

You're not getting any abuse online. Grow up. Rightful criticism isn't abuse. And no, writing this doesn't make me extreme, ultra or a troll.

Come on, Andrew. You're too intelligent for this nonsense. No girl 'nearly transitions' into a boy. There is no transition from female to male, or vice versa. The amount of medicalisation and mutilation doesn't change that for one bit.

From what I heard from her, she seemed to laugh a lot. I got the impression she is truly grateful to have come out the other side of this insanity.

I know you probably won't read this, but seriously - Dachshund? - a Dachs is a badger. Hence the short legs for hunting down burrows. Mine is a half-cast rescue. Love him to death. Please tell me you aren't making poor Gnocchi a vegan 🙄. Love your work.

theirs something very soothing in your voice,reminds of the guy from Notting hill, you have spent some episodes making Judaism look like a cult,shame that you've never looked In to your tradition in a serious and intellectual way ,maybe the fact that you were sent a jewish wife should get you thinking my father lived in a small village in germany they were the only religious family there all the other Jews were very ashamed of them untill Hitler went out o control ,then they begged my

Guest is terribly superficial, engages in embarrassing generalisations. I can't stand the worst of the let's woke agenda, but she has one idea and tries to horseshoe complex issues into that idea/hypothesis. In general I greatly enjoy this podcast.

The way the guest says "Right" when Andrew explains what he'd been told by the producers... and then she comes out and questions if it actually happened or if it was the way he perceived it.. Disgusting. And then Andrew points out that white men are under-represented in the media and the guest's reaction is that she has no problem with that. She is an idiot and I hope that she can one day see why her mindset is wrong.
