Description

We begin this week with James and Toby debating a truly burning issue - Is it better to live in the city or live in the country? After some time in the country this past week, Toby isn't sure the Youngs would last very long living the Delipngpole life.In the news we talk about independent journalists detained for questioning by counterterror police, The Telegraph story published this morning about the cost and the effectiveness of the lockdowns, and the Philip Schofield affair. (For our American listeners think a grayer and gayer version of Matt Lauer.)In Culture Corner, James can't even make it through the trailer for Poker Face (SkyMax in the UK, Peacock in the US), Toby is back on the Bernard Cornwall train with Sharpe's Devil, and they agree not to talk about Succession until James is caught up - and he'd be caught up if he wasn't watching crap such as The Days (Netflix).Opening sound this week is Amercan journalist Michael Shellenberger talking tp Andrew Doyle on GBNews about government censorship during the pandemic.This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/5822211/advertisement
