  • The “Boys Are Back In Town” and talking sense every week!

    Being a late boomer, every week when I hear Nick and Paul on this podcast, I am reminded of that 1976 Thin Lizzy classic - The Boys Are Back In Town - "Guess who just got back today

    Them wild-eyed boys that had been away". Back this week with some more classic takes, great analysis, and a dose of humour. The perfect podcast 😊

  • Not as good as it was

    I have listened to Nick for a number of years now and really enjoyed his podcasts. I do find Paul Cox a bit annoying as he goes on and on and has a habit of going off topic. More Nick less Paul please.

  • I came here to escape academics!

    Normally love mix of banter and down-to-earth commentary, but the political pontifications of so-called 'academic' agent are increasingly cringeworthy and going dark places: constant reference to 'that nation' supposedly controlling all world affairs but no guts to state his age-old conspiracy theory in plain terms. Academic agent should stick to English Literature while Nick sticks to the usually sound mix of reaction and humour.

  • Always more of staunch Rev. J Franklin

    Psalms, Bible readings, musings - more of the good Father. A good man is Cox, on a journey so he is - perhaps he could ask Nick more questions than go on normie rants. I respect Nick’s intellectual fortitude and bravery. More impressions wouldn’t go amiss. Nick is genuinely talented and funny.

  • The deep thinker and the normie

    Nick Dixon is a deep thinker and a funny guy. His insights are entertaining and thought provoking and he makes it very clear how his opinions are formed, making him very accessible and interesting, leaving plenty of room for disagreement. Paul Cox is a total normie whose conclusions were reached 20+ years ago by ‘awake’ folk. Best example: he’s always at pains to show he’s not racist even though no sane person would think he is.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Is This Our Last Chance to Save Britain? - Harrison Pitt
Q: Is the key immigration policy to deportations or to a broader colorblind meritocracy that protects demographic security while avoiding discriminatory outcomes?
The guest suggests a policy framework that emphasizes demographic security and the preservation of a host population as essential to national identity, while asserting that policies should avoid mistreating minorities and should be implemented within a broader strategy that still acknowledges individual rights; DEI should have no place in the state, and immigration and deportation policies are linked to demographic realities.
Nick Buckley Takes on Reform and Greens in Manchester
Q: Is the next election really our last chance?
No, it's a scare tactic. We have many elections after that, and while the next general election matters, it is not the end of the country.
Nick Buckley Takes on Reform and Greens in Manchester
Q: What are your main policies then for Gorton?
I've put together a five-point manifesto all about Gorton and Denton, including a local inquiry into grooming gangs and anti-knife crime projects.
Nick Buckley Takes on Reform and Greens in Manchester
Q: Why did you decide to join Advance UK?
I thought I really need a party behind me because it's too expensive and you don't get enough traction.
The War for the Right - Restore Britain vs Reform UK | Basil the Great
Q: What did you make of that Advance thing, that they were going to merge, then they didn't?
Basil mentions that no one has a monopoly on being problematic in politics, and he elaborates that the Advance party had potential but lacked the popularity of Restore Britain. He suggests that they need more time to find their footing before any merger discussions become meaningful.
