In this week’s episode of London Calling, James and I discuss last Saturday’s live recording of The Delingpod, in which James interviewed Neil Oliver in front of a paying audience of 900; I worry about whether mine and Nick Dixon’s live recording of the Weekly Sceptic on 1st April in the same venue (the Emmanuel Centre) will be as popular, while James says he doesn’t care because I’m Salieri to his Mozart; we argue about who is doing more to defend our liberties, with James maintaining democratic institutions are now wholly-owned by the billionaire class and all the usual methods for holding the powerful to account are broken, and me arguing the system still works, but is in need of rejuvenation; James cites the lack of discussion about vaccine injuries as an example of how captured the mainstream media is, while I cite the recent discussion in the New York Times of the Cochrane mask study, as well as the lab leak hypothesis, as evidence the picture is more nuanced; and, in Culture Corner, we discuss the ‘updating’ of the novels of Roald Dahl and Ian Fleming, Oblomov, Riding the Rap by Elmore Leonard, season five of Drive to Survive and season three of Happy Valley.
