The Daily Heretic

👉 Don’t miss stories the mainstream media won’t cover — subscribe now to Heretics Clips: https://www.youtube.com/@hereticsclips/videos 🔥 What happens when a student refuses to bow to ideological pressure? Connie Shaw, a former Leeds Student Radio presenter, found out the hard way. After daring to interview Graham Linehan on her podcast, she was accused of “bringing the station into disrepute.” That single conversation unleashed a storm of censorship, intimidation, and social ostracism that felt less like a modern university — and more like a totalitarian regime. 👉 Watch the full podcast here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zeLnRAhlb6M In this gripping interview, Connie reveals the full story of how she was forced out of Leeds University by a hostile trans activist mob and complicit lecturers. From Kafkaesque disciplinary hearings to re-education demands and even a campus ban, her case exposes just how far ideological capture has spread through British universities. You’ll hear: The most shocking question Connie was asked in her disciplinary meeting. How so-called “gender expression funds” for binders and tuckers reveal the deep institutional capture. Why professors now police speech, thought, and belief inside the classroom. The devastating social consequences, from friends being warned not to be seen with her to her podcast being used as “evidence” against her. But amidst the chaos, Connie found support in the Free Speech Union (FSU), led by Toby Young. Without them, she says, her life would have been completely destroyed. The FSU’s intervention showed that there are still people willing to defend free expression when universities and activist mobs close ranks. This is more than just one student’s ordeal. It’s a warning about the future of free speech in Britain, and a glimpse into what happens when academic institutions trade intellectual diversity for ideological conformity. 👉 Stay tuned until the end for Connie’s unfiltered message about cancel culture, censorship, and why she refuses to be silenced. #ConnieShaw #LeedsUniversity #FreeSpeechUnion #CancelCulture #FreeSpeech #AcademicFreedom #GrahamLinehan #HereticsClips Learn more about your ad choices.

What if the very movement that claims to fight for justice is actually laying the groundwork for tyranny?

He openly describes himself as “as far-right as it gets,” but is that label accurate, or just another tool used to silence dissent? In this episode, he challenges the Left vs. Right divide, asking much deeper questions about power, liberty, and the future of Western civilisation. 👉 How does the woke movement weaponise morality to control society? 👉 Why is liberty always sacrificed in the name of equality? 👉 And could the obsession with social justice be a Trojan horse for authoritarianism? Benjamin takes us beyond political soundbites and into the philosophical mechanics of tyranny. He argues that the modern woke ideology isn’t just misguided — it’s dangerous, corrosive, and ultimately unsustainable. From censorship to cultural capture, he exposes the tactics that create conformity and punish dissent. Known worldwide under his online moniker Sargon of Akkad, Carl Benjamin has built a reputation for fearlessly dismantling progressive narratives and defending free speech. His arguments provoke strong reactions — but whether you agree or disagree, his perspective forces you to confront uncomfortable truths about the direction of our societies. This isn’t about cheap slogans or partisan bickering. It’s about digging into the philosophical nuts and bolts of what freedom actually means, and why movements dressed in compassion can lead to tyranny.

Subscribe to Heretics Clips for fearless, insight-driven conversations that dig beneath the headlines — where politics, power, and human nature collide. 👉 https://www.youtube.com/@hereticsclips/videos In this powerful episode, Henry Bolton OBE — decorated soldier, former UKIP leader, and counter-terror expert — joins Andrew Gold to dissect the rapid rise of Reform UK, the influence of Danny Kruger, and what their momentum reveals about a Britain fed up with hollow leadership. Bolton, who’s served both in war zones and the political trenches, offers a rare insider’s take on how frustration with establishment parties has ignited a new populist movement that refuses to play by Westminster’s rules. Born in Nairobi and trained in the British Army, Bolton earned an OBE for international security after missions in Bosnia, Kosovo, and Afghanistan. He later entered politics, first with the Liberal Democrats, then with UKIP, eventually becoming party leader during its most chaotic chapter. Having seen the inner workings of power up close, Bolton now argues that the traditional political class has lost touch with reality — and that parties like Reform UK are the inevitable backlash. So what is the “Danny Kruger Effect”? Bolton believes it’s the embodiment of a national mood shift — a demand for moral clarity, real-world leadership, and courage to challenge bureaucratic groupthink. He and Gold explore how Kruger and Reform are tapping into a deep cultural frustration, reshaping British conservatism and threatening to rewrite the electoral map. Inside the episode: Why Reform’s rhetoric is striking a chord with voters left behind by Labour and the Tories. How Danny Kruger’s unapologetic tone is reshaping the right. What lessons Bolton learned from UKIP’s collapse that Reform must heed. And whether Britain’s political elite are finally facing a reckoning. Is this a genuine political reset — or another populist flash in the pan? Bolton’s analysis blends the pragmatism of a soldier with the experience of a political survivor. Expect honesty, sharp insight, and no spin.

Subscribe to Heretics Clips now for explosive interviews that pull no punches: https://www.youtube.com/@hereticsclips/videos Why does woke culture seem so obsessed with gaining status and attention? In this thought-provoking Heretics interview, award-winning author and journalist Will Storr breaks down the psychological forces driving virtue signalling and the relentless pursuit of moral superiority in modern society. Storr, whose acclaimed books include The Heretics, The Science of Storytelling, Selfie, and The Status Game, has spent years studying human behaviour, tribalism, and the ways people compete for influence within their communities. Here, he applies that lens to woke culture — explaining how its participants often frame themselves as virtuous, oppressed, or morally pure as a way to climb the social ladder. In this revealing conversation, you’ll discover: The psychology of virtue signalling and why it’s hard-wired into human behaviour. How the desire for dominance, success, or virtue plays out in online activism. Why woke culture rewards public outrage and moral grandstanding. The tribal nature of status games — and why groups punish dissenters. How social media algorithms amplify the loudest and most extreme voices. Why status-seeking behaviour isn’t unique to the Left, but especially visible in woke circles. Andrew Gold pushes Storr to explore whether this craving for recognition is inherently harmful — or simply part of being human. Together, they discuss how status games shape everything from politics to workplace culture, and why understanding them is essential if we want healthier public discourse. Storr argues that while the desire for status is universal, in woke culture it’s often channelled into public acts of moral performance, where signalling one’s alignment with the “right” causes becomes more important than engaging in meaningful change. He warns that this dynamic can create a toxic environment of one-upmanship, fear, and conformity. Whether you see woke culture as a necessary social justice movement or a competitive theatre of moral vanity, Storr’s insights will challenge you to think differently about why people behave the way they do online and off. ➡️ Watch the full interview now and join the debate in the comments: Is woke culture driven by true values — or just a hunger for attention? 🎥 Full podcast here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IhLwf8Gd1ts&t=875s #WillStorr #Heretics #WokeCulture #VirtueSignalling #StatusGame #Selfie #TheScienceOfStorytelling #FreeSpeech #CultureWars Learn more about your ad choices.

He wrote Father Ted, The IT Crowd, Black Books and Brass Eye — but now Graham Linehan is more famous for being one of Britain’s most cancelled comedians. In this explosive interview on Heretics, Andrew Gold sits down with Graham to uncover the truth about how comedy lost its edge, why the industry has turned against him, and why he believes woke comedians like Stewart Lee have become everything they once mocked. 👉 Subscribe to Heretics Clips for more fearless, unfiltered conversations: https://www.youtube.com/@hereticsclips/videos Once a national treasure, Graham Linehan found himself ostracised by the very comedy world he helped build — blacklisted for speaking out about gender ideology, censorship, and the protection of children. He’s been labelled “transphobic,” dropped from shows, and vilified online — yet refuses to back down. In this no-holds-barred conversation, Graham opens up about what cancel culture has done to him, how he lost almost everything, and why he still won’t apologise. But this time, he’s naming names. Graham takes aim at Stewart Lee, the self-proclaimed “anti-establishment” comic who, according to Graham, sold out his principles to fit in with the new cultural elite. He argues that Lee and others like him — once symbols of creative rebellion — have become guardians of the very orthodoxy they used to challenge. Expect brutal honesty and sharp insight as Andrew and Graham discuss: Why Britain’s comedy scene has been captured by fear and ideology How woke comedians now punch down on ordinary people instead of power The hypocrisy of once-edgy performers who now silence dissent How J.K. Rowling, Ricky Gervais, and others have helped shift the debate back toward free expression And why Graham still believes comedy can be saved — but only if the cowards stop running This is a raw, emotional and often hilarious conversation about art, truth, and the courage to stand alone. Whether you agree with Graham or not, you’ll walk away questioning what happened to comedy — and why no one is laughing anymore. 🎧 Watch the full Heretics episode here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JtliX5oSvGk&t=3214s #Heretics #AndrewGold #GrahamLinehan #StewartLee #CancelCulture #Comedy #FreeSpeech #GenderIdeology #WokeCulture #JKRowling #CultureWars #TruthPodcast #BritishComedy #HereticsClips Learn more about your ad choices.

Former Home Secretary Suella Braverman joins Andrew Gold on Heretics to expose the real reason why *Boris Johnson’s government failed to stop the boats. In this explosive and revealing interview, Suella pulls back the curtain on what was really happening inside Downing Street — from political cowardice and bureaucratic obstruction to media hypocrisy and fear of being called “racist.” 👉 Subscribe to Heretics Clips for more fearless, unfiltered interviews: https://www.youtube.com/@hereticsclips/videos For years, Boris Johnson promised to “take back control” of Britain’s borders — but the small boats kept coming. In this gripping conversation, Suella Braverman explains why that promise was always destined to fail. She reveals how Whitehall’s bureaucracy, activist lawyers, and a timid political class sabotaged every attempt to tackle illegal immigration. Suella claims that while the public demanded action, the government quietly prioritised optics over outcomes — more concerned with press headlines than protecting the border. She also exposes the moral hypocrisy of Britain’s elite, who lecture the public about compassion while ignoring the chaos and criminal networks thriving in the Channel. 💬 “Boris wanted to look strong — but the system made him weak.” 💬 “Civil servants laughed at the idea of stopping the boats.” 💬 “If you tell the truth about immigration, they’ll brand you a bigot.” Andrew Gold pushes Suella on her own time in government — asking how much blame she places on Boris himself, and whether anyone in Westminster truly has the courage to fix Britain’s border crisis. Her answers are raw, detailed, and brutally honest. This isn’t just about politics — it’s about power, truth, and the system that keeps Britain’s borders open no matter who’s in charge. Whether you agree with Suella or not, this Heretics episode is essential viewing for anyone who wants to understand why every government promises to stop the boats — and none ever does. 🔥 Topics Include: • Why Boris Johnson couldn’t stop the boats • Civil service resistance & bureaucratic sabotage • The truth about Britain’s border failures • Illegal immigration & political fear • The role of activist lawyers • Suella Braverman on Boris & leadership #HereticsPodcast #SuellaBraverman #AndrewGold #BorisJohnson #StopTheBoats #ImmigrationCrisis #UKPolitics #BorderControl #HereticsClips #FreeSpeech #Britain2025 #PoliticalInterview Learn more about your ad choices.

👉 Subscribe now to Heretics Clips for more fearless conversations: https://www.youtube.com/@hereticsclips/videos What happens when universities abandon truth and meritocracy in favour of woke ideology? In this explosive interview, philosopher and former professor Peter Boghossian breaks down how today’s elite colleges have become factories of groupthink, where Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) take precedence over academic excellence. Boghossian — known for his fearless critiques of cancel culture and the corruption of higher education — exposes how plagiarism scandals, ideological capture, and political conformity are rotting the very foundations of academia. From Harvard to small liberal arts colleges, the consequences are spreading fast, shaping not just students but the culture we all live in. 🔥 Watch the full interview here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cy3Lhl1uG0g In this episode, you’ll discover: Why meritocracy is under attack — and what’s replacing it. The shocking details of the Claudine Gay Harvard scandal and what it says about elite institutions. How plagiarism and corruption are swept under the rug when identity politics takes over. Why DEI initiatives often backfire, breeding resentment instead of equality. How the woke takeover of universities is now trickling down into business, politics, and even your daily life. Boghossian, who resigned from Portland State University after clashing with the administration over free speech, argues that the very purpose of universities has been corrupted. Instead of producing critical thinkers, they are now producing ideological activists. But how did we get here — and is there any way back? This is not just an academic debate. If universities are training the next generation of leaders, what happens when those leaders have been taught to prize identity over truth? When science, reason, and open inquiry are sacrificed to ideology, what’s left of a free society? Peter Boghossian has become one of the most outspoken voices against this intellectual decay. Whether you agree with him or not, you cannot ignore the urgency of his warning. The day the woke colleges were exposed might just be the day we finally understand how deep this crisis runs. #peterboghossian #woke #highereducation #DEI #meritocracy #hereticsclips #claudinegay #cancelculture #university Learn more about your ad choices.
