Musk vs The Regime

Toby and Nick chat about Meghan and the whipped Harry’s new Netflix documentary and how unsympathetically she comes across, how long planned this project has been in the planning and how much their life is a woke victim parody of itself.

We revisit a new(ish) segment discussing all the juicy Twitter Files revelations – called ‘Birdwatch’: how a power hungry group of authoritarian nerds censored Trump, how Elon ignored the obvious choice of Toby to release the documents to – and why the mainstream news outlets have ignored this massive story. And we discuss what an Otter might be in LGBT circles…

Nick and Toby debate at length whether mainstream journalists are now beyond hope, reason or salvation and can ever be trusted to be objective or truthful with big stories like Twitter. They talk about how incredibly important this debate is on our side of the fence – referring to a piece in the National Review about Toby’s similar discussions with James Delingpole in London Calling and how open dialogue and freedom of expression sets the better tone.

Nick is joined again this week by The Daily Sceptic’s editor, Will Jones, to discuss this week’s featured stories.

And after a brief football match post mortem, Toby and Nick go head to head for the coveted title of ‘Peak Woke’
