Quiet Riot - Midnight Mass: One more for the road

Quiet Riot ·

2024/07/03

Naomi and Alex right the world's wrongs, in the wee small hours of the morning. We decided that, basically, Nick Clegg is to blame for everything - among several other people, who are also to blame for everything. Also, that, at a time the country needed a broadsheet editorial, Sunak provided a listicle. Also, that conservatism in deep doo-doo. Also that Starmer will probably be a bitter disappointment, unless he is not.And Alex utters the world's most depressing sentence: "The next Conservative

Quiet Riot ·

2024/06/22

Alex Andreou fact-checks Nigel Farage's claim that he is some sort of oracle that - alone, among politicians - saw the war in Ukraine coming, that he made his complimentary comments on Putin before the annexation of Crimea. All he found was a history of shilling for Russia. Please subscribe to the podcast, like, review and rate us, and share the love on social media – it makes such a difference.

There's a recap of the General Election so far – just 14 days to go people – and we ask if there's a parallel universe in which Rishi Sunak is leading his party to something other than an abject, miserable meltdown. And we gift you a tantalising taste of Henry's new book,

What a start it has been to the general election campaign! Glorious gaffes and kneejerk policies galore. Alex Andreou and Naomi Smith are joined on their new politics podcast by old friends economist Miatta Fahnbulleh who is standing for Labour in Peckahm and the inimitable Ian Dunt (guess what the rating of this episode is – go on, guess) to pick over the wreckage.
