Konstantin Kisin joins Peter Whittle on the #SWYSI sofa to discuss Russia & Ukraine from his perspective as a Russian-born citizen who is married to a Ukrainian and is in constant contact with family in both countries, which he also visits several times a year. As a Russian speaker he also closely follows Russian media that is inaccessible to non-Russian speakers in the West. In a wide-ranging discussion they also discuss his new book (out in July) An Immigrant's Love Letter to the West. Funny, provocative and unswervingly perceptive, An Immigrant's Love letter to the West interrogates the developing sense of self-loathing the Western sphere has adopted and offers an alternative perspective. Exploring race, politics, free speech, immigration and more, Kisin argues that wrongdoing and guilt need not pervade how we feel about the West - and Britain - today, and that despite all its ups and downs, it remains one of the best places to live in the world.

On this episode of #SWYSI, Nina Power discusses her book "What Do Men Want?: Masculinity & its Discontents" and provides her insights on men and women, "toxic masculinity", incels, "patriarchy", Western culture, and the "men are bad" narrative. Nina Power's book is an inquiry into love, sex and power and provides an unashamed defence of masculinity and an attempt to tackle the crisis in masculinity that has grown to epidemic proportions amongst vast swathes of the population. Nina Power is a philosopher, cultural critic and author. In addition to her books, she has written for The Spectator, The Telegraph and the Art Review, amongst other publications. Nina says she wrote this book “partly because I have been personally and politically disturbed by the division created by media and technology between men and women in my own lifetime. Partly because I feel that men and women have had their lives reduced to generalizations by a media that loves sweeping claims: I think that these claims don’t accord in the slightest with the complex reality of our lives.” On her website she adds “it’s an attempt, among other things, to understand...male resentment."

On this week's #NCFNewspeak, our panel discuss the impact of Ukraine on our energy prices and energy security and why this makes Britain's "Net Zero" ambitions ludicrous & reckless. Also, is The West right to lionize and make heroes out of politicians like Zelensky? Taking so-called micro-aggressions to a whole new level, Transport for London (TfL) now warns commuters not to stare at fellow passengers. And, despite the brave efforts of women in Ukraine, Nicola Sturgeon has instead chosen to mark International Womens' Day by apologising to ancient witches. Our Host: Emma Webb, commentator & deputy research director at the Free Speech Union. Our panel: * Peter Whittle, Founder & Director of the New Culture Forum * Marc Glendening, Head of Cultural Affairs at the Institute of Economic Affairs * Gawain Towler, political consultant and former head of media for the Brexit Party ---------------- SUBSCRIBE: If you are enjoying the show, please subscribe to our channel on YouTube (click the Subscribe Button underneath the video and then Click on the Bell icon next to it to make sure you Receive All Notifications) AUDIO: If you prefer Audio you can subscribe on itunes or Soundcloud.

Dr. Attila Demko is a former Hungarian diplomat & defence strategist and an expert on the geopolitics of Russia & Ukraine. He is the author of "Fury of the Tsar", which gives an exclusive insight into Vladimir Putin's mindset, what he has against the United States and NATO and why Ukraine is so important for so called "Mother Russia". It guides the reader into the shady realm of geopolitical competition; false-flag operations and cruel battles behind the scenes, all wrapped into the fire of Eastern European history. Dr. Demko joins Peter Whittle in Budapest to explain Putin is furious and what he is capable of doing when cornered. And he is indeed cornered. Things are not going well for Russia, and a new economic crisis is at the door. Written in 2019, this book reads like a prophecy in 2022. Vladimir Putin is on the path of revenge, a path which Dr. Demok believes may lead to two graves: the grave of the West, and the grave of Russia. Reviews: “I ignored meetings, calls, and impeachment hearings to devour this book. For any reader who values history, enjoys fiction, and follows East-West power politics, this book is a mesmerizing tour de force. Part intelligence briefing, part cinema verité, it’s a powerful, unnerving ride.” Victor Gaetan (The American Spectator) “A controversial, thought-provoking, insightful, yet entertaining book. A new Tom Clancy is born.” Dario Quintavalle (Limes) To purchase "Fury of the Tsars" written under Dr. Demko's pseudonym "David Autere", please click here: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Fury-Tsar-Bo... ---------------- SUBSCRIBE: If you are enjoying the show, please subscribe to our channel on YouTube (click the Subscribe Button underneath the video and then Click on the Bell icon next to it to make sure you Receive All Notifications) AUDIO: If you prefer Audio you can subscribe on itunes or Soundcloud.

As the Free Speech Union (FSU) marks its 2nd anniversary, founder Toby Young joins Peter Whittle to discuss the FSU's notable free-speech victories and the general state of free speech in both England & Scotland.

As the founder of The Daily Sceptic, originally "Lockdown Sceptics", Toby also discusses the past 2 years under Covid and why he feels vindicated. #SWYSI ---------------- SUBSCRIBE: If you are enjoying the show, please subscribe to our channel on YouTube (click the Subscribe Button underneath the video and then Click on the Bell icon next to it to make sure you Receive All Notifications) AUDIO: If you prefer Audio you can subscribe on itunes or Soundcloud.

We're delighted to present the first episode of NEWSPEAK, our new "in-house" discussion show. On today's programme we discuss Whoopi Goldberg's historical ignorance around the Holocaust, and the way in which her views have clearly been shaped by Critical Race Theory. We also discuss the police's continuing suppression of free speech, as they arrest a woman in a mobility scooter for stickers bearing entirely legal statements regarding women's rights. We look at the issue of charging people different rates for goods and tickets based upon their sex, race and sexuality as one club charges straight white men 6 times more than trans people of colour to enter. And we also discuss attempts to cancel George Orwell and place trigger warnings on his classic work "1984". #NCFNewspeak ----------------- SUBSCRIBE: If you are enjoying the show, please subscribe to our channel on YouTube (click the Subscribe Button underneath the video and then Click on the Bell icon next to it to make sure you Receive All Notifications) AUDIO: If you prefer Audio you can subscribe on itunes or Soundcloud.

BBC Radio 4's legendary "Quote... Unquote" has entertained audiences since 1976. However, in December 2021, fans were dismayed to discover that the show was at an end. On this week's #SWYSI, Nigel Rees, the creator & host of "Quote... Unquote", explains the events that led him to cancel his own show. He explains how the BBC's diversity quotas for greater representation of women, ethnic minorities and disabled people began to affect the programme and how the BBC's political correctness required him to amend his scripts, preventing the inclusion of familiar and harmless quotations, loved by generations. --------------- SUBSCRIBE: If you are enjoying the show, please subscribe to our channel on YouTube (click the Subscribe Button underneath the video and then Click on the Bell icon next to it to make sure you Receive All Notifications) AUDIO: If you prefer Audio you can subscribe on itunes or Soundcloud.
