In this week’s episode of London Calling, James and I announce we’re taking a break and when we return in October it will be for a monthly show in which we confine ourselves to an amicable conversation about what we each got up to the previous week, including the films and TV shows we’ve seen and books we’ve read. That may sound a little too sedate, but we’ve decided we cannot continue to have the same heated argument about whether the world is going to hell in a hand cart because of folly and incompetence – my theory – or as a result of the diabolical machinations of a cabal of evil billionaires – James’s hypothesis. We’re clearly never going to convince each other and I doubt we’re convincing any of our listeners either. In this, the final episode of London Calling in its present form, James shares his conspiracy theory about the wildfires in Maui and I refuse to engage, telling him he should write a book called The Grand Unified Conspiracy Theory. In Culture Corner, I praise Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning: Part 1 and James says he’s gone back to reading Gogol’s Dead Souls.
