Children of the Coren feat. Jonathan Nunn

What if you could never be fired from your job -- even if you crossed every possible line, to include threatening to sexually assault and then immolate your neighbour’s child during a row over drum practice? What if you were also insanely racist? In your published columns? Well then, you’d be Giles Coren, Britain’s worst food writer. This week, Riley (@raaleh), Milo (@Milo_Edwards), Nate (@inthesedeserts), and Olga (@rocknrolga ) join Eater London writer Jonathan Nunn (@demarionunn) to discuss Giles’s reign of terror in the British food writing scene.

We also discuss transport secretary Chris Grayling’s scheme to fund a ferry company with no boats -- and, crucially, an article from Ed Husain on ‘Britain regaining its confidence’ that seems to be written by artificial intelligence.
