In this week’s bumper episode of London Calling, James Delingpole and I discuss James’s recent gig in Dorset and the division in towns like Bridport and Totnes between the ‘woke’ and the ‘awake’, particularly over traffic calming measures; they go on to talk about Yuval Harari’s recent suggestion on the Lex Friedman podcast that ‘conspiracy theorists’ should be banned from the internet and I ask James to respond to Harari’s claim that some conspiracy theories, particularly those that blame the world’s problems on an elite cabal of billionaires and their acolytes, sound a lot like the Protocols of the Elders of the Zion; we then talk about James’s theory that Paul McCartney was replaced by the fake Paul when he supposedly died in 1966, with me expressing some scepticism; next we discuss Ron DeSantis’s fading hopes of becoming the Republican Presidential nominee, which I think is a shame, and whether the 2020 Presidential election was stolen from Trump (which James still believes); and that leads to a longer, shoutier argument about whether James’s conspiracy theory about the ‘death jab’ being manufactured by the ‘cabal’ to decimate the global population turned out to be true, with James maintaining it has and me arguing it hasn’t; finally, in Culture Corner, I heap praise on They Cloned Tyrone, a new sci-fi conspiracy thriller on Netflix, and Lioness, the new Taylor Sheridan series on Paramount+, while James enthuses about Kohrra, an Indian police procedural on Netflix.

First of all, thank you Toby for launching the Daily Sceptic (previously Lockdown Sceptic). It is a brilliant forum for all of us who know that we are being done over by the establishment. It has to be said that James Delingpole is spot on with every topic that you have made reference to. There is plenty of evidence out there to confirm his viewpoints.
From the first half hour alone of the recent Current Thing podcast we learnt James doesn’t believe we went to the moon, dinosaurs existed or that evolution is real.
The man is harming the sceptical movement.
He’s right about some things, but in swivel eyed loon territory on many.
That’s right, there is no theory, no matter how wierd, that he won’t fall for. The end for me was when he said the Titanic didn’t sink, it the Olympic. Some sort of insurance fraud was involved. He’s potty!
The Titantic/Olympic switch is fairly credible. Look at the windows on C Deck.
Serial number on starboard propellor matches the Olympic, bulkhead repairs seen by ROVs (only done on the Olympic), and now the letters “MP” appearing underneath the ships name. All pretty strong evidence
Except for the ‘Paul is dead’ stuff. His evidence there is shoddy.
Toby’s bizarre insistence that everything is either coincidence or cockup is nauseating. He now moves in lockstep with MSM on most things. Very, very, odd.
I find Toby to be sensible and balanced, credible and decent. I enjoy listening to his pov and I am often found thinking about topics in a way I hadn’t before.
I expect London Calling won’t last much longer. James doesn’t believe he has to justify his positions to non believers and just shouting ‘cuck’ isn’t really proof of much.
Yes, it’s getting old. If someone (eg De Santis) does 9 things James supports but one thing he doesn’t that makes that person ‘controlled opposition’. Boring.
It’s not getting old. I just love listening to two different viewpoints, I just wish that James wouldn’t insult Toby and talk over him, that really lets his side down. It is so good to hear opposing viewpoints discussed, we need more of this. More free speech.
I also find their lifestyles quite fascinating and interesting to hear about – their holidays and travels, all the famous people they meet, the fox hunting and mixing in posh circles, and what life is like for married male 50-somethings with 4 or so kids each.
For a self-declared sceptic, he seems to be remarkably credulous.
The whole Beatles/Tavistock/Fake Paul thing gets very boring. It’s a load of nonsense dreamt up by nomark fantasists. I support James in much of what he says, but I wish he wouldn’t keep going for this one.
I agree. I support James in most as well, but the Fake Paul thing seems implausible, and I have very little interest in that theory so don’t want to spend time researching it for myself.
Why is my previous comment ‘awaiting approval’? It contained neither profanity nor abuse.
Hello, as a new donor, your comments will need approval for a limited period. We do our best to approve comments ASAP but sometimes life gets in the way of the moderators.
Ok. Thank you.
I don’t understand why TY struggles to comprehend that ruling powers would be interested in undermining small c conservative values like the family and the various traditional institutions in order to control the population and exert control.
That’s exactly what the communists did in Russia and Eastern Europe in the 20th century.
It’s what PolPot tried very brutally in Cambodia.
It’s what Mao did with the Cultural Revolution.
The mistake is to think there aren’t people any more who want to control the world by transforming society in a radical way. Why wouldn’t there be?
The means at their disposal now are greater than ever and allow them to do it in a much more.sophisticated way.
They thrive on the sowing of chaos, confusion and discord. He can’t seem to understand that, thinking that everyone would obviously want to live in a happy place called Stepford, or some such like.
Toby, depending on who you know, the vaccines have caused mass devastation and people I know who are suddenly suffering strokes, heart attacks and turbo cancers, and I don’t like your glib tones.
July 2021: My young healthy neighbour miscarried a few weeks after getting her first and last vaccine
Christmas Eve: My partner’s best friend died of a heart attack (age 53). He’d been suffering chest pains since his booster 3 weeks previous.
2022: My best friend diagnosed with breast cancer (age 60)
Also another friend diagnosed with womb cancer (age 50)
2023: My friend’s brother in law died suddenly of a blood disorder
My exe’s 50 year old sister had menstrual disorders leading to blood clots and then a massive stroke which has left her paralysed on one side.
People at work have been taking time off for funerals at a rate I have never seen before.
And I KNOW all these people have been vaccinated. There certainly has been an outbreak of coincidences.
If the ‘sudden, unexplained, excess deaths’ were amongst the ‘unvaccinated’, it would be front page news across the board. But it’s not. And yet, sceptical Toby doesn’t seem that sceptical. You’d think he might at least be a little bit curious…
Toby, you just need to watch the UK Column News and you’ll come round to James’ point of view about the death jabs and how there is a very evil global elite pulling the strings behind everything. The UK Column News presents overwhelming evidence that brings us to these conclusions.
