Since the start of 2025 the presence of Pakistani 'grooming gangs' operating across the United Kingdom has dominated online discourse and parliamentary debate. We discuss the nature of these 'gangs', provide a cultural analysis of why they existed, and consider the scale of the political cover-up by the Labour Party, police, and local authorities. Plus, the key divide in feminism on the issue, the Left’s sentiment that they own feminism because their project is a claim to liberating all humanity, Jimmy Savile, islamophobia as conceptually tied to imperialism or a useless term, and the Left’s delusion that ethnic minorities are universally aligned with them.

Dr. Ally Louks, a scholar at Cambridge University, created a frenzy online after posing for a selfie with her PhD thesis entitled 'Olfactory Ethics: The Politics of Smell in Modern and Contemporary Prose’. Her tweet went viral, with over 120 million views to date. We discuss the backlash and why we think her English Literature PhD caused such a furore. Including... anti-intellectualism, envy, knowledge as something possession of a particular sex, the crisis in the American academy, and the history of conservatives in literature. Plus, what dealing with academic charlatans is like, what PhDs actually are, and why men sometimes hate something a woman does precisely because it’s excellent.

We respond to Labour MP Pat McFadden's suggestion that anyone wanting to be euthanised should pay for it themselves. We talk package deals, budget deaths, and spectacular deluxe send offs involving planes and assassination-style takedowns. We wonder how the bureaucracy around death will work? What will the safeguards be? Can there be safeguards around death?

Jen’s outlines her dark theory about why Kim Leadbeater is so interested in promoting death and Hannah explains euthanasia as a phenomenological understanding of Satan in cultural form. Plus, vapid progressivism, intersectional car crashes, consequences for the ‘euthanasia defence’, the unintelligibility of MPs to the general public and the unintelligibility of the general public to MPs, middle-class people’s denial around the state, and liberalisms obsession with the individual and the individual as the only point of analysis for the liberal.

The Labour government is set to introduce inheritance tax on farms that will potentially decimate the farming industry in the UK. We take a heretical leftwing position by arguing against this in the name of food sovereignty, productive value, and anti-globalisation. We discuss how the Left used to be the advocates of organic food, free range farming, and have entirely ceded that cultural ground to the Right. We then delve into the widening pathways of alienation in our society in terms of consumption regarding food, living in regard to housing, the creation of life in relation to surrogacy, and with euthanasia now an attempt to socially construct death.

We give an example of how trans-humanism cannot even fit into our institutions citing YouTube couple Jamie Raines and wife Shaaba who have screwed themselves out of IVF on the NHS due to Jamie being male on her medical records and also not qualifying as a heterosexual couple because they’re both actually female. Plus, the Marxist definition of oppression, Hannah lambasts the language around assisted suicide, and Jen states she'd prefer to be hit by a bus than be euthanised.

We discuss the relationship between transgender ideology's tendency towards categorisation and the black and white concreteness of mind required to buy in to it. The more ambiguous, messier parts of subjectivity can cause a certain ambivalence, for which surgeries, hormones, and cosmetic procedures become a way to make concrete changes to oneself in the hope of splitting off parts of the self that don’t fit neatly into a core self-image or identification with a desired category. This black and white thinking has its basis in emotional maturity, which is partly why so many as mature 'detransition', having come to integrate all parts of themselves psychically as age.

Similarly, in regard to maturity and a lack of experience, it is remarkable how often it is that those with little to no sexual experience are the people most attracted to and highly fascinated by sexual categories or sexual politics. As if labelling yourself with three types of sexual identities, or obsessing over the social relations between the sexes, would fill a void of inexperience and lack of understanding.

Plus, transgender ideology’s curious rejection on social construction for the more concrete arguments of hard science, why sanitising and infantilising gay people through rainbows is a recipe for making us all look like pedophiles, and the value of seeing other women say “no”.

Donald Trump won the American Presidential election last week in a landslide victory, winning every swing state, and almost 'flipping' a few others. We discuss how he managed to pull off a feat that most polls and political commentators were not expecting. If Trump's win signals a wider crisis of liberalism, what hope is there for the Democrats to renew themselves and win this side of 2040? The election humiliated not just the many pollsters who expected a blue victory, but also the mainstream media, who found themselves floundering for explanations as to what had gone so wrong. We discuss the denial of those mainstream media commentators and others in the Harris camp who now find themselves political refugees as they continue to not face the seismic political shift Trump represents. Plus, the feminine bullying tactics of woke liberals, the new emergent fault line of globalisation vs anti-globalisation, Jen feeling surprisingly sad after the election result became clear, the racism of low expectations, and we ask whether Rory Stewart inadvertenly indicated he was privy to intelligence conversations about bumping Trump off? And sorry for the fireworks!

The 2024 U.S Election results will be known in just 36 - 48 hours time. We discuss how acrimonious the run up has been, and how dominant online discourse has become in shaping political outcomes. We cover the new normalcy of openly wishing violence on your political opponents or those who differ ideologically to you, how the online sphere has fostered petulance as politics, and why assuming everyone who disagrees with you is stupid is a bad idea. Plus, the UK’s predilection for teaching children gruesome histories, Ben Shapiro on Jewish whiteness, moral incontinence, and whether we should only be nice about people after they die. Towards the end of the episode we give our predictions on whether Trump or Kamala will win and, of course, the mass global fallout from the tragic state murder of Peanut the squirrel.

We review Matt Walsh's new documentary uncovering the DEI movement in the United States. 'Am I a Racist?' looks at race relations specifically, and the self-help, grief counselling, Protestant evangelical culture found within the workshops he attends. There is a pessimism at the heart of these DEI sessions, one that has a wider context in capitalist realism, afro-pessimism, and Victorian morality. The function of pessimism here is about proposing a foreclosure of systemic change or reorganising society in a meaningful way to end racism, so that instead people individually 'do the work' through self-flagellation and quasi-psychological deconstruction. That sets up the lucrative grift of DEI workshops or events as the only activity someone can attend to be anti-racist, rather than focusing on political action. Individualistic measures become the ceiling of what one can do to defeat racism.

Plus, Derrida's 'reiteration' theory, women's loyalty to men as highly racialised, the red flags of coercive workshops, and a prediction of land acknowledgements happening even in Israel some day. At the end of the episode we discuss some of the damage done by vegan activists to indigenous communities in the north of Canada.
