Owen Jones, journalist, author of Chavs and The Establishment, or "that left-wing idiot off the telly", is fed up with the establishment media. After all, it punches down, not up, blames minorities for all the problems in society, and, let's face it, often just parrots the government line. So this podcast is offering something different: speaking truth to power, giving the marginalised a voice, of... more

  • Can understand why legacy media hates him

    Owen brings facts and moral clarity. When the right are hysterical, Owen sounds like a raised eyebrow and a big belly sigh - “oh dear, let’s explain journalism again…”

  • Gorton + Denton observation

    I notice how although the reform candidate MG ‘speaks’ the language of the things that matter to people yet Nigel and the wider gang of expat landlords who jet in/land in Gorton + Denton from UAE/Saudi millionaire space have no intention of observing the reality of precarious homes/work on the quality of life/infrastructural/service investment needed: witness them having a secretive ‘rally’ with supporters on an industrial estate where they can’t be held to democratic account.

  • A thinker: explain this please

    Question about pubs feudalism + reform’s constituency (it’s in the malformed pub culture)

    When we hear about new legislation about leasehold reform in property hooray why can’t it be applied as a lens on the medieval way pub land/pub estates operate on landlords and tenants? It seems to me that through all the penalties and charges imposed by the estate and landholders invisibly and unaccountably on the people who want to work in a neighbourhood setting that it creates a vassal/feudal culture th... more

  • Narrow Minded “Journalist”

    I listened to the podcast “Gaza Hunger Strike; Buried by the Media” with an open mind, as I wanted hear things from the other side. I found the reporting to be deeply one-sided. While the production value is reasonable, Owen Jones provides a narrative that feels more like an agenda than an investigation.

    My main concern is the lack of balance; Owen consistently ignores the 'other side' of the story, choosing only the facts that support a specific viewpoint. Most troubling, however, is the omissi... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Netanyahu DEFIES Trump As Israel PANICS, w/. Trita Parsi
Q: Do you think there's any prospect of some sort of deal with Trump, for example, putting pressure on Netanyahu to restrain actions and press for a ceasefire?
Parsi suggests a possible pathway where the US leverages a deal—particularly the unfrozen Iranian assets—to push Israel toward restraint, with Trump needing to show tangible gains to justify the political capital involved in pressuring Netanyahu.
Netanyahu DEFIES Trump As Israel PANICS, w/. Trita Parsi
Q: What do you think is going on in terms of what Iran's calculation was at this moment to begin with in terms of it striking back in the context of what's going on in Lebanon?
Parsi argues that Iran aimed to reestablish extended deterrence by signaling that its actions could deter Israel and any unilateral Israeli moves in Lebanon, thus pushing for a region-wide ceasefire and complicating Israel's ability to operate freely in the area.
Belfast: What You’re NOT Being Told - w/. Sarah Creighton
Q: What do you think about the Northern Ireland context and history, and how this violence fits into it?
Creighton outlines how the current pogrom-like violence echoes past sectarian tensions, but emphasizes that the targeted groups are migrants and refugees rather than the traditional Catholic-Protestant divide, highlighting the broader pattern of racism and white supremacy crossing communal lines. She also stresses that while concern about immigration exists on both sides, it does not justify violence and underscores the need to challenge racist narratives.
Smearing A Jewish Leader To Protect War Criminals
Q: How can individuals pursue accountability if national governments are reluctant to act?
Private actors can use universal jurisdiction to file private arrest applications for individuals accused of war crimes, especially when states fail to act, thereby pressing for accountability beyond national borders.
Smearing A Jewish Leader To Protect War Criminals
Q: What is the core aim of the letter and the accompanying campaign, and how does it relate to international law?
The campaign seeks to collect data on Britons who have left to fight with the IDF, disclose details on those who return, and push for independent investigations into possible war crimes, aligning with international law's emphasis on accountability and transparency.
