  • Brilliant Journalism

    This is a searching and informative podcast. The latest one is an account by Dr Nick Maynard on his work with the people of Gaza. This harrowing first person account of bravery and compassion in terribly dangerous conditions. He teaches medical students as a consultant surgeon. His humanitarian work is an example of extraordinary courage. I am in no doubt that his account is honest and accurate. Israel is committing war crimes and genocide on a desperate civilian population and our Government’s ... more

  • Why?

    Adrian why are you avoiding talking about the genocide in Gaza? It’s shocking to see that no other important podcaster is either. There are a number of genocide scholars … Prof Martin Shaw is the best known in the UK. Why aren’t you talking to him. What is it that is stopping the podcast media from discussing the issue?

    Thanks

  • Thank You Bonnie Greer

    Just as Bonnie Greer avoided watching all of Joe Biden’s disastrous debate, so I avoided the BYT “Biden Question” podcast. I figured it would just be a regurgitation of right-wing tropes, an unthinking echoing of the anti-Biden ageist narrative put out by Fox News, the New York Times, Russian bots etc. The Economist has fallen for the ageist tropes, as has the New Statesman, Campbell and Stewart and a few others. I’ve had enough. Why don’t they critically check the source of these “Biden is too ... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Control? Or Cruelty? Mahmood's Asylum Plan
Q: Shabana Mahmood has spoken about the way in which asylum and migration is tearing the country apart.
It has become a divisive issue, complicated by policies and rhetoric that foster resentment and fail to address the real issues affecting public services.
Control? Or Cruelty? Mahmood's Asylum Plan
Q: Sohail, what's your reaction to what we've been hearing?
The tone is dangerous as it contributes to the dehumanization of asylum seekers, making them feel worthless and marginalized in society.
"Trump's Russia Sanctions Welcome - But More Needed"
Q: Does this tell us that actually President Trump hasn't moved quickly enough and hasn't moved strongly enough hitherto to stop the Russian war machine?
Yes, it's obvious he hasn't, and we lost quite a lot of time which could have prevented human suffering.
Inside The COP Climate Summit
Q: Tell us which group she belongs to and why exactly they are threatened.
The group is the Guarani-Caiowa from Mato Grasso do Sul, who are at the front line of climate change and environmental injustice, facing threats and violence despite their ancestral claims to the land.
PPE, The Pandemic and Cronyism with Russell Scott
Q: What needs to change in our political system so that this thing doesn't happen again?
Scott suggests there should be laws to prevent such nepotism, transparency in government contracts, and accountability for officials involved in cronyism during procurement processes.
