James and the Giant Hunt

London Calling - Ein Podcast von Ricochet

We're all over the politically correct spectrum this week. On one hand, James had his epic hunting adventure last weekend, while on the other hand, Toby is struggling to adjust to his new role as "Mr. Mom" now that an empowered Caroline has left for a two week holiday in Barbados. Meanwhile, there's a lot on the censorship front as we take on the list of media that the UK Government’s "anti-extremism unit" thinks could turn you into a far right terrorist, the appalling rewrite of Roald Dahl’s children’s books by Puffin, and the weaponisation of ‘disinformation’ by the Global Disinformation Index to try to demonetise right-of-centre news publishing sites. We also note the protest against 15-minute cities in Oxford. In Culture Corner, James took a trip to Bath to see a Genesis cover band, the vertiginous decline of Marvel Studios and the joys of Clarkson’s Farm. Opening sound this week is Peter Hitchens on Michael Graham's TalkTV programme on the Dahl rewrite, via YouTube. To hear more about James' weekend he was also on the first-ever "On Hunting" podcast.   Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
