Dan takes a look at the new Department of Government Efficiency established by Donald Trump and led by Elon Musk. It has set itself a Herculean task to cut $2tr from US spending. Can it possibly achieve that?

Josh, Beau and Henry Bolton discuss how Britain has become a tyranny beyond parody, the discovery of the identity of Jack the Ripper and how the aesthetic of multicultural Britain is that of a dystopia.

This week, Beau talks all about Richard II, the grandson of Edward III. At just 10 years old, he inherited the throne, and a few years later, he faced a major uprising against taxes during the Peasants’ Revolt of 1381. Later, he was overthrown by his cousin, Henry Bolingbroke (the future Henry IV), imprisoned, and likely starved to death.

The discussion kicks off with a hilarious take on Valentine’s Day before diving into the serious geopolitical chaos in the Congo. Topics include the historical Rwandan-Congolese conflict and the complex role of foreign aid, especially regarding Eswatini.

The fascinating blend of humor with in-depth analysis keeps listeners engaged as the hosts tackle both global issues and the absurdities of international aid.

Connor, Harry, and Josh discuss how Britain’s farmer’s protests are progressing, Europe’s Zoomers copying the MAGA revolution, and how changing demographics will lead to the South Africanisation of the UK.

Carl and Beau are joined by Dr Charlie Cornish-Dale (Raw Egg Nationalist) to discuss how the youth hate Britain, how doxing Anons isn't working, and the best Gaza deal.
