Podcast: The Plumley Pod

'It’s not possible to “blow Covid out of proportion”. This is the most important thing that has happened in our lifetimes, and perhaps for a millennium. There is nothing on Earth as significant.'

Let Us Not have Given Up, On the Day Before Victory!

This conversation with Sarah Plumley on her podcast, The Plumley Pod (‘your voice of reason for Home Education’) was recorded shortly before Christmas.

We don’t actually get to the topic of home schooling, but that's about the only thing we don’t touch on!

Topics include:

  • A reprise and some loose ends arising from our constitutional challenge, which culminated this year;

  • the inversion of journalism into journalying; why the media agreed to be bought;

  • the strange death of the BBC;

  • the newspaper as ideological instrument;

  • the Usepaper — salvation of the print industry!

  • the long war against fathers and why it was really, all the time, a weapon of destruction against the family, and how this was visible a quarter of a century ago, if only we had recognised the signs;

  • Jordan Peterson’s odd behaviour over Covid;

  • The even stranger silence of the ‘Intellectual Dark Web’.
