Description

In a departure from our normal format Rafael Behr (host) and Philip Berman (the show's producer) agreed to press record when they met yesterday (Thursday 28 September) to discuss a new series idea for Politics on the Couch.And this podcast is the end result, instead of a meta-cast talking about what we could talk about this Autumn, it's more of a casual ramble around Phil's break from Twitter, his despair about the state of political discourse and Raf's one-stop solution for all.Topics covered (in no order of importance):TwitterLaurence FoxGB NewsSunak's postion on net zeroThe mood in WestminsterState captureDemocratic back-slidingThe preface to the paperback version of Rafael's new book.https://rafaelbehr.com Hosted on Acast.
