  1. I was being facetious but the people you’re talking about have been lost because social media and the internet in general is a ‘wild west’. And one where they’re sold lies because it’s in the interests of foreign powers who want to see the end of democracy as we know it. I see the likes of Andrew Tate as a result of that rather than its driver. It’s obviously not quite as simple as certain parties driving everything. But I really don’t know how you provide a ‘truthful’ alternative from a left wing perspective to people who despise women because they’re abhorrent to women
  2. Not really sure I know what a left wing version of a people trafficking, tiny cocked misogynistic cunt who’s a hero of the thick as fuck misinformed should be like.
  3. When exactly were the days when being an ex-MP was desired? Obviously there’s jobs for the boys for the old school tie lot like Gove and Osbourne. Getting editor roles where they’re just a name with others going their work. That cunt is getting exactly what he deserves as he’d have sneered at anyone in the same boat a few months ago.
  4. All perfectly normal I’m not sure where they’re getting any of this from but I’m only really aware of the women’s match against them because of the fewm / insanity afterwards from their lot on RTG. Why are they even bothered?
  5. I would definitely only have the coin toss for the first match in a series. Then you should alternate afterwards for which captain has the option to bat or bowl
  6. Nah, I think the industrial dryers are already en route
  7. Speaking of which, I googled ‘Fabricant’ just to remind myself of his majority. The Wikipedia page has been amended now but it looks like some wag had been having a bit of a laugh at his expense
  8. I don’t know why but they’ve a long tradition of the absolute fucking mentalists having the safest seats. But they managed to keep them tucked away in the past, but they’ve got so few MPs they can’t do that any more. Particularly with them being the official opposition and pretty much needing to shadow all the ministerial posts in government. They can (and do) use members of the HoL. But that’s limiting in itself. Even though it’s stuffed with Tories.
  9. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/crime/lucy-connolly-sentence-tory-councillor-husband-twitter-post-b2630930.html She sounds like she’d been posting racist shit for a while. She sounds lovely in general tbh
  10. Iirc, she pleaded not guilty and didn’t appear to think she’d done much wrong.
  11. He averages about 32/33 in first class cricket. He’s arguably over performing as his average is the same in tests. But they want two openers to come in and smash it around. I’ve never really agreed with it but when it comes off it’s spectacular. Dan Lawrence has a significantly poorer test record and he seems to be the closest to fitting the bill as an alternative
  12. Pitch is a bit of a pisstake mind. Recycled from the previous match which is pretty unprecedented. Then heavily watered and then dried out with industrial dryers. I know-same for both teams. I think they’ll be about 100 runs short. As you could see wickets falling in a heap
  13. Even if you thought that you wouldn’t say it ffs
  14. Not quite sure what the solution is but a lot of football seems to be ripe for unscrupulous types to exploit. Especially lower down the pyramid and grassroots football. Whether that money laundering, fraudulent appropriation of FA grants, syphoning off of monthly subs etc. Are Spartans in serious bother here?
  15. Well IF the rumours have any truth the club were open to doing that but Liverpool didn’t bite. Apart from the 20/20 hindsight a lot of these self appointed pundits seem to think these things can just be made to happen
  16. Wordy Rappinghood by Tom Tom Club is brilliant too. S”Express were canny but it was basically just cool disco samples. Black Box were the cheesy end of Italo House. And of course their biggest hit completely ripped off Love Sensation by Loletta Holloway. For a bit better representation of the Italian scene try Don Carlos. Not to be confused with the reggae artist of the same name. KLF we’re class, obviously. Don Carlos a DJ: https://on.soundcloud.com/NWDCVERZWj7erf9X7 as a producer:
  17. Sorry, should have realised. Their having the same surname completely threw me when they first started talking about it on the podcast so I thought you may have been similarly confused
  18. There were three compilations done by mixmaster morris by that name. That’s the track list from volume 1. Or similar. Might be an amalgam of all 3. Some mixes of the tracks featured will have been proper obscure/ done for the compilations. That was kind of eclectic dance, 2 was ambient/ambient techno, 3 was more hardcore techno / trance. They were in aid of CND. Vol 2 is excellent. Iirc vol 1 wasn’t mixed but the other two were.
  19. Choon! It wasn’t a spoof. You may remember I made reference to this a while back (well worth a watch btw): This was one of a series of video diaries from the early 90s. Where people were given a camera and then made their own film before BBC looked at it and edited into a programme proper, if it was deemed worth making into one. Off the back of that on (iirc) Def 2, there was a spin off series of teenage video diaries. Same premise made by da yoof for da yoof. The Chris Needham* one was shown and by popular demand was repeated once. But I don’t think it’s been on telly since and survives via vhs uploads to YouTube. *It’s not Al Needham. By coincidence they share the same surname and are both from the East Midlands. They know each other now but only through Al Needham championing ’In Bed With Chris Needham’. I think they’ve done some Q&A events together, as it’s got a cult following. The bit in the podcast intro “What do you like listening to?…giggles…Chart music….” Is from the video diary.
