00:00:27.640 We few, we happy few. 0.98

00:00:28.540 wee band of brothers

00:00:30.440 feels like it's been a long week for me

00:00:34.240 I'm glad it's Friday, I'm looking forward to the weekend ahead

00:00:36.760 hope you guys are too

00:00:38.800 as always, nearly always

00:00:40.460 I'm joined by my producer Little Harry

00:00:42.080 how are you this morning, good sir?

00:00:43.440 morning, I'm all good

00:00:44.400 this embodied voice of the all powerful

00:00:48.320 all knowing

00:00:48.820 omnipresent

00:00:50.560 producer there, we're in his hands

00:00:53.700 what would Little Harry do?

00:00:54.840 okay

00:00:55.240 pardon me

00:00:58.540 Are you bright-eyed or bushy-tailed? Are you working around for the day ahead?

00:01:03.720 Come on, wakey-wakey. Out of bed, sleep ahead. Let's go. Day's half over.

00:01:07.440 Let's get into it. That's enough fanning about, isn't it? That's quite enough faffing for one morning.

00:01:11.880 This show is about what's in the news cycle on any given day.

00:01:15.400 We need to know, really, don't we?

00:01:18.100 You do need to know. Ignorance isn't bliss.

00:01:20.940 Your enemy just gets to drop on you if you're ignorant of what they're doing and saying and talking about.

00:01:25.160 and how they're warping the minds of the millions of normies

00:01:28.260 who still get all their news, their view of reality, really,

00:01:32.120 from the legacy corporate lamestream media.

00:01:35.240 So you're interested to know, even if it is largely slop and really frustrating.

00:01:40.460 Right, what have we got here?

00:01:41.560 What's that cabal of evil, quite frankly, evil Fleet Street editors

00:01:44.340 banging on about this morning?

00:01:46.320 What are they lying to us about by omission?

00:01:47.840 Do you think we'll get many stories about the connection between George Osborne

00:01:51.480 and Jeffrey Epstein?

00:01:55.160 George Osborne and

00:01:57.600 Peter Mandelson

00:01:58.980 George Osborne and Ehud Barak

00:02:01.180 George Osborne and

00:02:03.480 The 5th Baron, Rothschild

00:02:05.400 George Osborne and

00:02:07.920 Leslie Wexner

00:02:09.780 Nope

00:02:10.160 Nope

00:02:11.520 That cabal of evil fleet fleet street editors

00:02:13.840 Whatever you do, don't talk about

00:02:15.680 Les Wexner and Ehud Barak

00:02:17.220 Like every day, yeah guys? Got it?

00:02:19.540 Okay, good, there's a good guy

00:02:20.940 Click

00:02:21.600 Alright, we've got

00:02:26.700 Laughing criminals let loose, sure

00:02:28.660 Because the Labour government have decided

00:02:30.200 That they're just going to flood us with more criminals

00:02:33.140 More criminals

00:02:34.020 How this policy won't be disastrous

00:02:36.880 For them at the ballot box

00:02:39.260 I don't know, surely it must be

00:02:40.920 Who are all these people

00:02:43.000 Still voting Labour 0.97

00:02:43.920 Laughing criminals let loose 0.98

00:02:47.380 Yeah

00:02:47.680 They're laughing, well they are, there's clips

00:02:50.460 actually literally clips of it and return to the castle it's a story about a tv show

00:02:59.500 traitors or is it the traitors i don't know i watched about 10 15 minutes of one episode of it

00:03:04.380 and i'm like got it i don't know about you guys but i don't watch much telly at all but when

00:03:09.020 there's something that's so sort of popular it sort of enters the zeitgeist on some level

00:03:12.940 or so even though you hardly watch any tv still watch some occasionally you can't avoid it like

00:03:20.540 over the years how can you not if you're in britain how could you not become aware of what

00:03:25.740 the great british bake-off is or strictly come dancing the traitors is sort of in that level i

00:03:30.740 don't care about it at all but it was the first episode of a new show yesterday apparently

00:03:36.380 richard e grant was in it apparently i'm not going to talk about it in any detail but it is

00:03:41.240 part of the news cycle today. Alright, the Metro. I would cut to the Stain Cam, but we've

00:03:46.140 got no Stain Cam today. I came in this morning. Me and little Harry came in this morning.

00:03:51.520 The studio was a bit of a mess. What went on last night? Was there some sort of party?

00:03:56.780 One of my big monitors was all askew. The Stain Cam was pointing up at the ceiling.

00:04:02.580 All sorts of weird stuff. Was there some sort of shindig in here last night? I wasn't invited

00:04:07.700 to some sort of hootenanny went down wasn't it little harry it was a bit oh yeah that's something

00:04:15.880 something went down was dan tub having a soiree that he didn't invite anyone else to

00:04:25.220 okay in fact my minds are still a little bit on the wonk if i'm honest

00:04:30.020 i'll get over it i'll soldier on i'll soldier on i'm a professional but there's no disdain

00:04:35.100 can for me to go, ooh, the metro. So I'll have to do this, ooh, the metro. Get my Ming

00:04:41.620 the Merciless face on. Do my Judge Dredd disdain mouth. What do you think you're doing in 1.00

00:04:52.620 the metro? Mamma jamma drama in the traitors. Don't care. Right. Laughing criminals let loose 1.00

00:04:59.960 by prisons. Look, they're having a good time. They're laughing it up. Good one. Get out

00:05:05.040 of jail free day, surely, surely anyone that's sort of a marginal Labour voter is going to

00:05:13.520 be terribly, terribly annoyed, turned off by this policy. Unless you're that type of

00:05:22.780 Fabian, that type of socialist that really, really, really hates the West, like actually

00:05:32.060 hates capitalism, hates whiteness, that type of globalist, that type of leftist, unless

00:05:40.320 you're that type that actually wants to see a communist revolution and that can only come

00:05:44.780 about when the rule of law, when society itself breaks down and that's your ultimate goal,

00:05:49.920 that type of traitor, then you wouldn't like this. Surely, surely 95%, 99% of people are

00:06:00.320 Just aghast to see them let prisoners out of jail early.

00:06:06.780 They'll try and argue, oh, it's only people that have, oh, they've got, like, unpaid parking fines and they've gone to prison for three months.

00:06:15.980 And we're letting them out early.

00:06:17.300 No, no, it's bad criminals. 0.99

00:06:19.300 Bad, violent criminals. 1.00

00:06:22.680 Stalkers, rapists. 1.00

00:06:25.640 All sorts of stuff. 1.00

00:06:26.960 All sorts of stuff.

00:06:30.320 lag thanks PM for release

00:06:34.040 anyone who might not know

00:06:35.600 a foreigner, a foreigner might

00:06:36.860 an American or something 0.99

00:06:38.140 lag just means a prisoner

00:06:39.680 I don't even know where that word comes from

00:06:41.600 but anyway

00:06:41.960 a lag

00:06:42.880 it's like when they call clever people bofs

00:06:46.120 lag thanks PM for release

00:06:51.500 then heads to KFC to party

00:06:53.820 well

00:06:55.980 can't blame me who doesn't like a KFC

00:06:59.240 I like a KFC

00:07:00.200 you gotta have gravy though i'm not interested in a kfc without gravy

00:07:05.700 someone brings you a tray of delicious piping hot kfc and i'm like where's the gravy no gravy

00:07:12.260 take it away take it away i'll do without no i wouldn't that's mad but if you went to prison

00:07:18.360 for a while that's not the craziest thing to do as soon as you get out is go get a kfc with gravy

00:07:22.860 is it? Alright, well, okay. Okay. The Daily Mail, pure subversive, get a load of this

00:07:32.840 banner, I know it's only a banner and not an actual headline, but the banner. After

00:07:36.780 he was diagnosed, my husband turned into a cancer bore, so I left him. That's disgusting. 0.93

00:07:45.900 Even if that's true, even if some woman, that's the true story of some woman, why are you 0.65

00:07:50.480 putting that front and centre as a banner on the Daily Mail. Why? They do it all the

00:07:58.780 time, don't they? The banner on the mail, the express, the times even sometimes, the

00:08:05.060 telegraph. Women, why you should cheat on your husbands. Women, if your husband isn't 1.00

00:08:11.020 perfect, here's why you should leave him. Women, don't have kids. That sort of thing. 1.00

00:08:17.340 Your husband got cancer, just leave him

00:08:19.900 Huh, right 1.00

00:08:22.540 It's absolutely disgusting 0.85

00:08:27.720 Honestly disgusting 0.97

00:08:28.960 It's filthy

00:08:32.800 Oh, I can't even look at that

00:08:36.940 Okay, there's that show The Traitors

00:08:40.060 With the presenter Claudia Winkleman

00:08:42.940 Claudia Winkleman and her bizarre fringe

00:08:47.380 and bizarre face, frankly 0.96

00:08:50.120 Thugs in every postcode

00:08:53.140 Labour frees first of ten tidal waves of convicts

00:08:57.100 There'll be tens of thousands a year

00:08:59.400 and they'll get nastier every month

00:09:01.420 Right

00:09:02.340 Great

00:09:04.080 Great

00:09:09.720 We're already suffering from a pandemic of crime, aren't we? 1.00

00:09:18.900 Our society is already flooded with criminals, foreign and domestic 1.00

00:09:22.920 You're just going to throw another load on, on top

00:09:26.120 Because we know the rate of recidivism, is that the word?

00:09:29.960 The rate of re-offending among these people is astronomical, it's giant

00:09:34.200 What is it, like two-thirds or three-quarters will re-offend straight away?

00:09:38.320 straight away

00:09:39.160 in fact there was one clip

00:09:40.220 that was going around

00:09:40.920 there was one guy

00:09:41.840 coming out of prison

00:09:42.600 and he was saying

00:09:44.360 I haven't set up

00:09:45.620 enough things for me

00:09:46.580 enough support for me

00:09:47.480 I haven't got a home

00:09:48.200 to go to

00:09:48.740 or a safe house type

00:09:49.840 accommodation or anything

00:09:51.360 so I don't know

00:09:52.700 what I'm going to do

00:09:53.400 I may as well go out

00:09:54.460 and start stealing again

00:09:55.460 right away

00:09:55.920 right now

00:09:56.440 that's what he said

00:09:57.080 to the camera

00:09:57.540 he's standing outside

00:09:58.740 the gate of the prison

00:09:59.960 so I may as well go

00:10:01.540 and start nicking things

00:10:02.680 right now

00:10:03.220 okay

00:10:06.780 good policy

00:10:08.260 It is mad

00:10:14.820 We must be mad

00:10:16.640 Literally mad

00:10:17.760 To have ever voted Labour in

00:10:20.100 Or the people that did vote Labour

00:10:21.440 It's on your hands

00:10:22.340 Well done

00:10:22.840 Well done Labour voters

00:10:24.480 Well done the socialists of Makerfield

00:11:30.680 Manchester

00:11:33.360 How City's rise

00:11:34.740 Helped Burnham

00:11:37.520 Get into number 10

00:11:38.940 That's Manchester City

00:11:41.700 Football Club that is

00:11:42.800 I read this little blurb down the side this morning

00:11:45.900 It's a little bit odd

00:11:48.560 Because of course

00:11:49.760 No Stern and Burnham

00:11:51.480 King Bumham

00:11:52.840 The first of his name with his guy liner and his man Scara

00:11:55.860 Of course he's from Manchester

00:11:58.720 Has he ever mentioned it?

00:12:00.680 Have you ever heard him mention it? He doesn't bring it up all that often, but he is actually from the north.

00:12:06.680 He's actually from Manchester. Well, I think he's more of a Scouser. Actually, in all seriousness,

00:12:10.680 isn't he more of a Scouser? Doesn't he support Everton?

00:12:13.680 Anyway, he was mayor of Manchester and he thinks he's literally king of the north, doesn't he?

00:12:18.680 The Messiah without a mandate.

00:12:21.680 King Bumham, first of his name, in some way has been helped, according to this article,

00:12:29.680 this article, by Manchester City, well, where the Abu Dhabi, member of the Abu Dhabi royal

00:12:38.560 family, what is it, Sheik, something or other, I can't remember the guy's name, the amount

00:12:43.560 of money they've pumped into not just Manchester City, the football club, but by proxy, Manchester

00:12:49.380 the city, you know, it wasn't just them, but hauling Man City out of the doldrums of football,

00:12:59.680 like 20 years ago was it 20 years ago only 25 years ago Man City were pretty

00:13:06.040 crap they'd got relegated down to like the second division didn't they go down

00:13:09.280 to the second division is that right when I was a kid Man City were always in 0.98

00:13:14.380 the Premiership and always one of the good thing like mid table Premiership

00:13:17.740 team bottom half of the Premiership table team and then they got relegated

00:13:22.960 loads they kept getting relegated and then they've come straight back up and 0.99

00:13:26.320 they've got the insane amount of investment from Arabs. Now they're the best team. Right

00:13:32.580 now they're the best team in Britain and have been one of the best teams, if not the best

00:13:36.340 team for years, 10 years or so. The amount of money that has spread out across Manchester

00:13:42.340 because of it, in revenues, in all sorts of ways. And so Burnham, if you remember, he

00:13:49.520 came out, didn't he? What, two days ago was it, I think? Maybe Tuesday. He sort of seemed

00:13:55.840 to be playing defense on behalf of the uh the arab owners of man city well he's had to back

00:14:02.680 pedal on that that's in the news cycle today he's back peddling on that because loads of people most

00:14:06.700 people came out even like his own advisors and be like andy and don't do that that doesn't go down

00:14:13.040 well no one's on your side really on that other than like the actual government of abu dhabi no

00:14:20.260 one thinks that's a good take don't say that his actor backpedal saying oh yes if any rules were

00:14:26.420 broken there were there were according to the fa and uefa there's like a hundred rules broken

00:14:32.900 over nine years to the tune of a billion 900 million pounds yeah rules were broken loads of

00:14:38.740 rules were broken systemically over years it's like and andy bernard's like if there's any rules

00:14:43.620 broken then you know that that won't fly that's no good no one's above the rules

00:14:47.380 Why don't you just say that in the first place then, Andy?

00:14:54.200 Claymation turtle of a man

00:14:55.600 No sternum

00:14:57.520 Look, prisoner's being let out

00:14:59.080 He's happy

00:14:59.720 He's having a good time

00:15:02.460 UK-Iranian held over Fairford incident

00:15:06.540 Okay, more details about the Fairford incident

00:15:08.940 Well, one more detail

00:15:10.100 They've arrested someone else, someone new

00:15:12.460 A joint UK-Iranian person in London

00:15:16.980 Who's 25 years old

00:15:18.300 That's basically it

00:15:19.280 We haven't got any more

00:15:19.920 Real details about it

00:15:20.840 Than that

00:15:21.380 And so it seems

00:15:26.540 To vindicate

00:15:27.140 If you believe any of this

00:15:28.340 It's all a very odd thing

00:15:29.840 Isn't it

00:15:30.080 A very curious case

00:15:30.820 A bizarre case even

00:15:31.840 If you believe

00:15:32.920 What Trump and Rubio

00:15:34.080 Have been saying

00:15:35.520 And now Burnham

00:15:36.560 Is more and more

00:15:38.240 And more connected

00:15:38.980 According to their account

00:15:40.380 More and more connected

00:15:43.420 To Iran

00:15:43.980 was it a dry run was it a botched dry run entirely a false flag oh another detail about it

00:15:54.860 israel came out the israeli government came out israeli intelligence services

00:16:03.180 came out and said we warned britain about some sort of possible terrorist incident going down

00:16:10.360 In and around RAF Fairford

00:16:12.740 Like a few days before

00:16:14.260 And the British government sort of ignored us

00:16:19.300 The Israeli Intelligent Services

00:16:21.820 They sort of ignored us

00:16:22.880 So

00:16:26.260 What on earth is going on?

00:16:30.740 The American Intelligent Services seem to know all about it

00:16:33.080 Well according to Trump and Rubio's own words

00:16:34.960 They knew all about these guys

00:16:36.760 These very bad guys

00:16:37.920 They're bad guys bigly

00:16:40.100 And they've known all about them

00:16:42.960 They've had their eyes on them for a long, long time

00:16:44.900 The Israeli intelligence services

00:16:47.460 Apparently, according to their own account

00:16:49.580 Knew about something was going to happen

00:16:51.760 The little villages around Fairford

00:16:54.300 Had been warned the day before, hadn't they?

00:16:56.780 So there was obviously chatter

00:16:58.020 That's what they call it, don't they?

00:17:00.180 Intelligence chatter

00:17:01.200 The intelligence services, one way or another

00:17:05.660 Various ones

00:17:07.160 Seem to know something was afoot

00:17:09.380 The game was afoot

00:17:11.360 On some level

00:17:12.320 And

00:17:14.460 Sorry Harry do you mind

00:17:17.300 Can you keep it down in there

00:17:18.780 Sorry it's a bit distracting

00:17:20.620 Sorry

00:17:21.340 I'm being such a diva

00:17:26.340 Don't look at me in the eyes

00:17:27.760 No sorry

00:17:31.020 I hate to be a bit precious about these things

00:17:32.720 I really do

00:17:33.500 But when you're trying to do a monologue

00:17:35.840 Little things are distracting

00:17:38.000 Sorry

00:17:38.800 Sorry there

00:17:41.020 Okay, alright

00:17:41.680 What was I talking about?

00:17:45.320 Yeah, Foreign Intelligence Services

00:17:46.980 Need to know all about it

00:17:47.860 Seemed to know all about it

00:17:49.800 And yet

00:17:50.480 It took this one 1.00

00:17:52.180 This one woman 1.00

00:17:53.560 This one random civilian woman 1.00

00:17:55.160 To call the police 1.00

00:17:57.420 Which remember

00:17:58.300 We talked about it yesterday

00:17:59.080 She called up

00:18:00.000 The special RAF Fairford security line

00:18:02.980 No one picked up

00:18:04.120 What?

00:18:05.760 What?

00:18:06.560 Why?

00:18:06.920 Why?

00:18:08.800 She called the local constabulary.

00:18:12.840 Nobody picked up.

00:18:14.600 She had to call the normal 999. 0.72

00:18:19.080 Okay, now they've arrested some joint UK-Iranian person who's 25 from London.

00:18:26.580 Why are the other guys on bail?

00:18:29.360 If this is, if, for me it's still a big if,

00:18:33.760 if this is a genuine attempt at a terrorist event,

00:18:38.800 orchestrated by a foreign actor or actors whoever they are let's say the 0.52

00:18:43.940 Iranians why are those five guys being released on bail

00:18:52.680 it's weird

00:18:58.080 and the police haven't questioned that farmer woman the main witness he says

00:19:03.520 there was more than five of them why have you not interviewed her

00:19:09.220 bizarre okay the times the venerable times is the film better than the book

00:19:17.080 are they talking about the godfather is that a young al pacino as michael corleone i mean it is

00:19:23.340 i've actually uh read the book the mario puzo book it's really good it's really good there's

00:19:29.660 reason why it got optioned as a film. Yeah, it's really good. I would say the book is

00:19:35.520 slightly better than the film, and the film's great. Godfather won, right? It's one of the

00:19:39.240 best films. It's one of my favourite films, probably top ten. A lot of people say that,

00:19:44.560 most people say that, for a reason. Sort of undeniably a great film. You know, the family

00:19:50.340 guy sketch where Peter's like, no, I don't like it. It's being contrarian. No, I don't

00:19:53.480 like it it insists upon itself that's funny of course because you'd have to really be a contrarian

00:20:03.400 to argue godfather one isn't a good film all right is the book better yeah i think so i think the

00:20:09.780 whole thing's on audiobook unabridged for free on youtube listen to it while you're doing chores

00:20:15.360 or whatever while you're playing a computer game listen to the audiobook of it it's really good

00:20:19.100 There's loads more detail in it

00:20:20.580 Of course

00:20:21.040 Of course

00:20:22.080 Alright

00:20:24.260 Back soon

00:20:26.340 Prisoners freed early

00:20:27.600 But recalls on the rise

00:20:28.800 Yeah

00:20:29.100 Yeah

00:20:29.560 Because when you're a career criminal

00:20:31.720 Not saying every single person in jail

00:20:33.820 Is a career criminal

00:20:34.720 Of course not

00:20:35.320 Or that every single person

00:20:36.820 Being released early

00:20:37.700 Is an actual

00:20:38.460 Full blown career criminal

00:20:40.300 Not saying that

00:20:40.900 A lot of them will be though

00:20:41.700 Won't they

00:20:41.980 A lot of them will be

00:20:42.740 A fair chunk of them will be

00:20:44.060 Until you get old

00:20:46.220 You become an old man

00:20:48.180 And 0.93

00:20:49.100 You're going to keep committing crimes.

00:20:50.380 They'll let you out.

00:20:50.880 You'll just start doing crime again.

00:20:52.800 Yeah.

00:20:54.140 Yeah.

00:21:00.060 Emergency diesel talks after Trump ultimatum.

00:21:02.800 This is a reasonably interesting story.

00:21:04.400 Oh, pretty interesting.

00:21:06.500 Release reserves or face export ban, Europe told,

00:21:10.020 by the United States.

00:21:12.820 Say Europe, apparently, according to the story,

00:21:15.220 is largely talking to France and Germany.

00:21:16.960 According to this story, France and Germany have got very large, relatively large, national strategic reserves of diesel

00:21:26.680 And the price of diesel, domestically, in the United States, is through the roof at the moment

00:21:34.560 I believe it's the most expensive it's ever been

00:21:38.980 To buy a gallon of diesel in the United States

00:21:44.320 And what would help that

00:21:46.860 Would be if there was more diesel on the market

00:21:51.040 And so Trump's asking

00:21:54.660 Sort of demanding

00:21:55.740 That France and Germany particularly

00:21:58.280 But other countries as well

00:21:59.320 Start releasing their giant reserves

00:22:04.120 So they don't have to buy as much

00:22:05.340 And they can even sell some

00:22:06.340 And etc etc

00:22:07.040 Isn't the United States a

00:22:11.040 A net exporter of all these things

00:22:17.000 Well I say that as though that's an obvious cure

00:22:21.720 An obvious remedy

00:22:22.420 But it's like she was talking to Dan Tubb about this

00:22:25.200 And it's not as simple as just

00:22:28.520 The United States just using its own petrochemicals domestically

00:22:35.360 If everything's set up

00:22:36.820 The whole industry, the whole infrastructure set up to export it

00:22:40.040 It's not as simple as just simply not exporting it

00:22:43.920 And turning it around and using it in the United States

00:22:46.420 I mean, it's possible of course

00:22:47.940 There's nothing in the laws of physics to prevent it

00:22:50.560 But it's just not straightforward

00:22:51.460 It's not as straightforward as that

00:22:52.520 There's all sorts of reasons, technical reasons why

00:22:55.380 But still, as I say, it's not impossible

00:23:00.860 Okay, it's difficult to get barrels from the Gulf of Mexico

00:23:06.000 Sorry, the Gulf of America

00:23:07.240 and to just send them inland 1.00

00:23:10.640 instead of putting them on ships

00:23:12.200 and shipping them

00:23:13.040 well couldn't you at least ship them

00:23:15.340 to Florida then

00:23:17.100 ship them somewhere on the eastern seaboard

00:23:20.260 go through the Panama Canal

00:23:21.780 if you have to

00:23:23.620 and ship them to California

00:23:25.020 I don't know

00:23:25.960 things could be done

00:23:27.040 why is he putting tons of pressure on France and Germany

00:23:30.000 okay

00:23:31.360 he's threatening them with an export ban

00:23:37.240 there wouldn't be turmoil on the in in the world of oil

00:23:43.240 would dare if trump hadn't have gone to war with

00:23:45.980 iran oh but they were going to get a nuke within minutes

00:23:49.300 okay let's uh let's check in with the uh price of crude shall we we did it on the show

00:23:57.920 i'll do it at this juncture while we're talking about oil

00:24:00.020 okay about the same as it was yesterday a touch higher than it was yesterday

00:24:04.860 Brent crude dipped below $100 a barrel, didn't it, yesterday?

00:24:08.500 Well, at the moment, it's $101.

00:24:10.540 $101.6 a barrel for Brent crude.

00:24:14.520 West Texas, $92, a shade over $92.

00:24:17.740 Let's do a quick refresh and reload.

00:24:22.100 We've got the real-time.

00:24:25.220 $101 a barrel for Brent, $91 a barrel for West Texas.

00:24:29.040 OK.

00:24:29.940 Diesel is at an all-time high at the pump in the United States. 0.94

00:24:32.940 Germany and France most effective. 0.99

00:24:34.860 Okay

00:24:38.780 Alrighty

00:24:40.180 A six-year-old girl

00:24:42.640 Is a hero

00:24:44.100 For helping

00:24:45.520 Thwart that

00:24:46.600 Potential terrorist incident

00:24:48.320 On that

00:24:49.020 Aeroplane that was going from Dubai

00:24:50.760 To Tel Aviv

00:24:52.060 A six-year-old girl

00:24:53.600 Helped save everyone

00:24:55.760 Did she?

00:24:56.540 Did she?

00:24:58.200 Nonsense

00:24:58.920 Nonsense

00:24:59.960 Get out of my face 0.91

00:25:02.360 Ugh

00:25:03.760 oh bill hicks bit isn't there it's like whatever you need let's go or you need an angelic child 0.99

00:25:10.760 there you go we've got a narrative a bullshit narrative we've got a nonsense narrative we're 0.96

00:25:22.220 about nuclear war or show you some horrible dead bodies of something or we'll try the other we'll

00:25:32.380 Now do and think the thing we want you to think

00:25:35.480 No

00:25:36.860 No

00:25:38.640 Alright, the Telegraph 0.95

00:25:46.060 German-O-Zionist slop 1.00

00:25:47.980 Seditious, traitorous 0.99

00:25:50.000 Zionist slop, the Telegraph 1.00

00:25:52.020 Ethno-nationalism is fine in Israel 0.96

00:25:57.480 But not in England

00:25:58.540 That's the Telegraph

00:26:00.440 That's what the Telegraph is

00:26:02.060 We can't have a country

00:26:03.300 We can't have demographic security

00:26:04.900 That's the Telegraph's line

00:26:06.660 Not in Britain, not in England 0.94

00:26:08.420 No, you'd be a racist and a bigot 0.69

00:26:10.400 To even suggest such a thing 0.96

00:26:11.680 You'd be beyond the pale

00:26:12.920 It would be a vile politics 1.00

00:26:14.980 In Israel it's fine

00:26:16.360 That's the Telegraph, that's who they are

00:26:19.480 There's Claudia Winkleman

00:26:20.840 Yeah

00:26:25.040 Claudia Winkleman

00:26:29.700 Alright

00:26:30.360 Trump tells Europe to release diesel

00:26:34.420 Okay, we've done that

00:26:35.340 Britain at risk of fuel shortages

00:26:37.580 As ministers hold crisis talks

00:26:39.280 About tapping reserves

00:26:41.440 Okay, we've sort of done the story

00:26:42.720 Israel, Labour hell-bent on destroying our relationship

00:26:47.840 Oh well

00:26:48.360 Oh well

00:26:49.500 That's a story actually about

00:26:53.920 Apparently the Israeli intelligence services

00:26:56.820 Warmed MI5

00:26:58.320 about the RAF, RAF everything in Gloucestershire, and they were largely ignored. 0.78

00:27:06.320 Israelis got to be in their bonnet about Ed Miliband, who himself is Jewish of course,

00:27:12.320 remember he's very proud of the early memories in a kibbutz, he's very proud of his Jewish heritage. 0.92

00:27:16.320 Not enough for Israel though, unless you completely bend the knee and do absolutely everything they want at all times. 0.91

00:27:22.320 They won't be happy. 0.81

00:27:28.320 Burnham preparing for election next May suggests Badenoch, Olukemi Olufenti Badenoch, the Nigerian woman, the Nigerian anchor baby, bizarrely finds herself LARPing as the leader of the opposition in Britain.

00:27:42.980 She seems to be convinced that Andy Bumham, Noe Stern and Burnham, King of the North, is going to call a general election in May next year.

00:27:54.500 This article goes into a little bit of detail, not a fantastic amount, but a little bit of detail about why the Tories and Olukemi, Olufanchi Badenoch thinks that.

00:28:04.560 may well be right it's reasonably convincing

00:28:08.360 that there's just

00:28:10.960 the speech he did

00:28:13.100 at a conference the other day

00:28:14.900 there's so much

00:28:17.360 in that that just speaks of

00:28:19.120 a government and policies that would

00:28:23.200 require a new mandate from the people

00:28:24.880 and a general election obviously

00:28:28.520 there's sort of profoundly

00:28:31.240 breaking from the Starmer manifesto

00:28:33.680 The 2024 Starmer Manifesto

00:28:35.240 Would require a new mandate

00:28:38.240 And lots of other hints and suggestions

00:28:41.800 From people on the inside

00:28:43.740 On the inside of Number 10

00:28:44.980 Senior, senior people in Whitehall, etc

00:28:48.060 Various aides

00:28:49.780 Whispers, Chinese whispers

00:28:52.020 Around the corridors of power 0.97

00:28:53.400 In Westminster

00:28:54.420 Next spring, it's going to be next spring

00:28:57.300 Next spring, it's going to be next spring, yeah

00:28:59.200 They will be

00:29:01.420 They will be

00:29:03.240 or in fact some senior people in and around the corridors of power

00:29:07.760 when pressed on it recently like in the last 24 hours 48 hours

00:29:13.400 have apparently refused to rule it out

00:29:16.620 that's how these things start isn't it

00:29:19.400 when somebody in the know refuses to rule something out

00:29:24.380 that means something's in the pipeline quite often

00:29:28.440 not always not always of course

00:29:33.240 Can you rule out that there won't be a general election by May next year?

00:29:38.860 Well, we couldn't possibly say, couldn't categorically rule it out.

00:29:44.260 All right, you get it.

00:29:48.960 It's a slightly interesting story to me.

00:29:51.840 AI solves the mystery of Napoleon's coded letter.

00:29:56.400 It's not Napoleon Bonaparte, it was Prince Eugene.

00:30:01.180 Napoleon's, what is he, nephew, was it?

00:30:03.240 sent a letter to, what, Marmont?

00:30:07.360 Was Marmont in Spain at that point?

00:30:09.660 Was that part of the Peninsular War in 1808 or 1807?

00:30:14.540 Anyway, it was coded, and we know about it.

00:30:17.300 It's sort of a famous letter, famous-ish.

00:30:19.740 If you're a Napoleonic War scholar,

00:30:22.440 and it was in code, and no one could break it.

00:30:25.320 Apparently, AI has broken it.

00:30:28.460 So, that's that.

00:30:29.220 i didn't get to read what it actually said in it it wouldn't be anything that interesting to be

00:30:35.260 perfectly honest but nonetheless slightly interesting note all right what else we got

00:30:42.580 the financial times there's one of these abu dhabi guys that thinks the rules don't apply to him

00:30:51.020 global bond sell-off leaves us trapped in vicious loop says the financial times treasury yield us 0.94

00:30:59.200 US Treasury yield hits high since 2002. Gulf War drives up borrowing costs. They're just

00:31:06.300 going to call this war with Iran a Gulf War again. It'll be Gulf War 3. I wonder if history, 0.77

00:31:13.440 quite often they don't decide what a war is going to be called until after. Even in my

00:31:17.440 lifetime, it's usually the case. I wonder if this will be Gulf War 3. All right, well, 0.58

00:31:26.700 it before i haven't made a load of things um issuing more and more bonds to borrow money

00:31:32.160 it's not really borrowing in the normal sense like you or i would borrow money borrowing okay

00:31:37.000 well so again a lot of diminishing returns like quantitative easing or just raising taxes higher

00:31:42.420 and higher and higher in the end it's a false economy yeah okay all right the eye paper something

00:31:53.200 about Richard Osman. Don't care. Don't care about Richard Osman. What a cretin. What

00:31:58.920 a shill. There's nothing wrong with him. He seems like an alright man. But who sells 0.98

00:32:02.840 their soul to like the BBC these days? It'll be out of your mind. BBC. Living in the past

00:32:17.460 like the BBC is a great institution. No it isn't. It's globalist, anti-white, anti-British

00:32:22.800 subversion and some sort of de facto paedophile ring isn't it oh what's that bow that's that's a 0.98

00:32:30.360 bit strong isn't it no no if you look at the amount of sex crime in the general population

00:32:36.260 sort of per capita yeah it's a certain level one in how many one in every 10 000 people

00:32:43.100 is actually a sex criminal or a paedophile then you look at that same rate within the ranks of

00:32:48.880 employees of the BBC, it's way higher. Way higher. The number of freaks and wrong-uns 0.77

00:32:59.700 and sex criminals in that organisation, crazy. Crazy. And you think they're still good, they're 1.00

00:33:09.900 still the good guys. I thought Rich Dobson was supposed to be clever. No.

00:33:18.880 No.

00:33:22.360 He's a shill, a hand-picked shill.

00:33:31.560 Burnham leaving the door open to snap election in 2027.

00:33:35.520 We just talked about that a bit, didn't we?

00:33:37.100 Shall we quickly read the blurb?

00:33:38.840 The blurb on the front of the iPaper is about the best thing you'll get.

00:33:42.700 Sources close to number 10 tell the iPaper

00:33:45.100 that calling a surprise poll in May has not been ruled out,

00:33:48.200 Despite Prime Minister's insistence

00:33:50.100 That there would not be one

00:33:51.380 Yeah he can go back on that

00:33:52.400 Giving himself enough wiggle room on that

00:33:54.740 More than enough wiggle room

00:33:56.980 When asked he would say things like

00:33:59.040 Do you remember

00:33:59.420 Say things like

00:34:00.340 Well I just don't think it's what the people want

00:34:02.420 He didn't say

00:34:03.940 I promise on my political career

00:34:07.260 That under no circumstances ever

00:34:09.520 Will there be an early general election

00:34:11.020 That's not what he said was it

00:34:11.940 That's not how he put it

00:34:13.560 He left himself more than enough wiggle room

00:34:17.180 to at any moment to say, I'm calling an election now.

00:34:20.180 Oh, but Mr. Burnham, you said you wasn't going to.

00:34:21.880 We'll just smile and shrug that off.

00:34:23.080 Yeah, but the situation's changed now, so I'll do what I want.

00:34:30.600 Quote, there is a growing school of thought

00:34:32.980 that there might be a sweet spot for an early general election,

00:34:36.800 quote, a source close to Andy Burnham said.

00:34:41.940 OK.

00:34:43.060 Prime Minister has said,

00:34:44.080 2029 will be date of next poll of next election going to the country earlier would risk labor's

00:34:52.640 majority yeah well i imagine whatever happens whatever happens we think i would have thought

00:34:58.320 the labor majority will go down because it was such a landslide in 2024 because rishi's failure

00:35:04.880 was so complete

00:35:06.320 That Labour got a landslide in 2024

00:35:10.620 Basically, didn't they?

00:35:12.240 A remarkable win, really

00:35:14.100 But it was only because the Tories and Rishi 0.79

00:35:18.300 Were so despised

00:35:19.580 The Boris wave

00:35:22.000 The Liz Trust, the Barkle, etc, etc

00:35:24.660 It's not that Labour are beloved and brilliant

00:35:28.020 It was the Tories were despised

00:35:31.780 Are despised

00:35:32.960 So, whatever happens

00:35:36.020 what if the Labour's majority will be reduced

00:35:39.060 it's just a case of how badly

00:35:40.740 will there be a sweet spot

00:35:42.260 in spring 2027

00:35:44.700 apparently no Stern and Burnham

00:35:47.160 thinks there is

00:35:48.360 advisors

00:35:50.840 stress that no decision has been made

00:35:53.520 but party officials

00:35:54.980 have been told to quote be ready

00:35:57.120 there's been enough

00:35:59.260 rumour hasn't there

00:36:00.860 flying around

00:36:01.840 I think there's been enough sort of

00:36:05.140 scuttlebutt

00:36:06.020 enough rumblings oh hey there's been rumblings

00:36:09.500 but there's often no smoke without fire he's obviously considering it isn't he obviously

00:36:16.500 obviously considering it and the people close to him talking about it trying to make the best

00:36:22.740 calculation for themselves okay the daily express it's a good paper you can read your express now

00:36:29.960 it's not a good paper i'm being sarcastic it's globalist subversive treasonous slop

00:36:34.440 Wearing the skin suit of patriotism and nativism

00:36:38.040 It's not 0.75

00:36:38.940 It tries to destroy anyone

00:36:40.820 That wants demographic security for Britain

00:36:43.500 It's evil 0.81

00:44:56.040 the tongue, National Rally, and Marine Le Pen should get in.

00:45:01.360 So we needn't have to liberate them from the tyranny of their own leftist globalist government.

00:45:08.880 We can talk.

00:45:09.880 Like when, if, when, probably when National Rally get in in France, they'll have a much

00:45:17.820 better government than us at that point, won't they?

00:45:53.020 Down through the centuries, nay the millennia

00:45:55.820 On this day, what happened of note?

00:45:58.540 Let's have a look

00:45:58.940 Okay, we're talking about the 2nd of October

00:46:00.800 On the 2nd of October

00:46:03.160 What have we got?

00:46:04.440 In the year 1187

00:46:09.580 Captures Jerusalem from the Crusaders 0.94

00:46:12.420 That's the 3rd Crusade, isn't it?

00:46:17.420 The Coeur de Lyon

00:46:18.900 Richard the Lionheart, Richard I

00:46:21.440 that's his third crusade his baby do you think i've got long-form content all about that on

00:46:26.000 bow day's epochs my history theme show behind the paywall on lotusseaters.com do consider

00:46:29.900 sign up for as little as five pound a month of bronze team membership a body of work built up

00:46:33.140 over five years quite literally without exaggeration hundreds and hundreds of hours of history themed

00:46:37.420 content do you think there i've got a long-form content a few hours talking about the third

00:46:43.720 Crusade and Richard the Lionheart. Yeah. And Saladin, of course. It was a great showdown

00:46:53.480 between Saladin and Richard. Deep, deep rabbit hole there. Lots and lots to talk about. Okay, 0.97

00:47:01.980 but I can't on this show. It's just supposed to be a little bit of an overview on what

00:47:05.080 happened on this day in history. What else have we got? In the year 1492, same year Christopher

00:47:11.300 columbus sailed the ocean blue king henry the seventh henry tudor henry the eighth's dad

00:47:17.140 of england invades france yeah it was only a small campaign though

00:47:20.900 again it wasn't like a henry the fifth it wasn't like a richard uh edward the first or edward the

00:47:25.700 third wasn't that sort of a deal he bounced across the channel to boulogne if i recall oh i got

00:47:34.260 yeah i got long form i got long form content all about henry the seventh yeah oh yeah

00:47:39.700 All about Henry VII

00:47:42.140 He just jumped across the channel to Boulogne

00:47:46.520 Took Boulogne

00:47:47.440 And then accepted a massive bribe

00:47:50.560 Or a massive payoff

00:47:51.920 From the French crown to go home again

00:47:54.240 Massive

00:47:55.720 Massive

00:47:56.840 So yeah

00:47:59.540 It wasn't a giant war

00:48:00.940 Particularly 0.99

00:48:01.980 It was just to sort of force the French 0.98

00:48:06.420 To give him loads and loads of money 1.00

00:48:08.000 Because they weren't

00:48:09.500 at that point they weren't in a really good position to stop him so he could have gone sort

00:48:16.100 of uh edward the third style and started running amok through the uh the heartlands of france

00:48:24.560 that's a bit dangerous isn't it that's a bit of a risk

00:48:27.180 so they were happy to pay him off he was happy to take the money and go home

00:48:32.660 okay little known French campaign of Henry VII there all right the Bill of Rights this website

00:48:41.180 loves the Bill of Rights doesn't it I swear this is like the third fourth maybe the fifth time it's

00:48:45.700 mentioned the Bill of Rights on this day the Bill of Rights was the first ink was put to paper on

00:48:50.440 this day the Bill of Rights it was the first day anyone outside of the government saw it on this

00:48:55.360 day was the first day Jefferson knew about the Bill of Rights on this day okay there's another

00:49:00.840 one 1789 on this day in 1789 george washington transmits the proposed constitutional amendments

00:49:07.880 known as the united states bill of rights to the states for ratification

00:49:13.640 i don't understand like i broke a record but we've talked about the bill of rights at least at least

00:49:17.080 twice but in the constitution it's completely different documents of the constitution

00:49:25.320 in the constitution they thought after after the constitution had been written they were like

00:49:28.920 We haven't explicitly laid out a number of key rights, like freedom of speech, like the right to bear arms, like the right to not be cruelly and unusually tortured by the government, like the right to not purge yourself, the right to not have men billeted in your house, military men, the right to a fair trial in a reasonable amount of time, i.e. just not kept without charge or trial indefinitely.

00:49:58.920 Like a despotic king

00:49:59.960 Lots of things like that

00:50:01.020 They're like

00:50:01.300 Yeah the constitution's good

00:50:03.240 It is good

00:50:04.980 Thanks Thomas Jefferson

00:50:07.000 Appreciate that

00:50:07.680 But

00:50:08.120 It's more sort of a general

00:50:11.700 General statement of things

00:50:13.840 Isn't it the constitution

00:50:14.520 We really should

00:50:16.060 Well Jefferson himself

00:50:16.980 Jefferson himself

00:50:19.400 Was aghast that certain things

00:50:21.820 Weren't explicitly laid out

00:50:23.920 In the final draft of the constitution

00:50:26.200 It's like

00:50:28.920 You need to do some amendments right now.

00:50:32.160 Well, that's what the Bill of Rights is.

00:50:33.080 The first ten amendments to the Constitution is the Bill of Rights.

00:50:40.040 There you go.

00:50:40.900 This website seems to really, really care about it.

00:50:44.620 I mean, it's a fundamental document, an absolutely fundamental thing.

00:50:49.120 Okay, on this day in 1928,

00:50:53.380 the prelature of the Holy Cross and the work of God,

00:50:56.540 known as Opus Dei, is founded by a Catholic priest Jose Maria Escriva in Madrid, Spain.

00:51:08.180 Opus Dei. I don't know a great deal about Opus Dei. I've heard about them before and I've heard

00:51:12.480 nefarious things about them, but I don't know enough to say if that's actually fair or not.

00:51:16.580 I'm not a Catholic. Certainly not a member of Opus Dei. It's just a bit of a semi-secret

00:51:22.740 catholic society although it's not secret anymore i believe in the earlier years of it it was kind

00:51:27.440 of semi-secret a bit like the the masons like not really secret really secret everyone knows about

00:51:33.240 it really but some of the inner workings of it are secret but i think in the last few years

00:51:37.620 the last half a generation or whatever it's sort of formally not secret anymore like the masons

00:51:45.080 the masons aren't secret everyone knows where the building is in london anyone within reason

00:51:49.840 anyone can join it you can just join it anyone can Callum did you remember Callum he used to

00:51:55.220 work for Lotus Eaters he joined them just just out of interest to see what it was like you have

00:51:59.620 to pay a bit of money it's not secret Opus Dei is that now I believe just just completely not

00:52:05.720 secret but I think it used to be and there was some controversies like people would say there

00:52:10.740 was I don't know I don't know enough about it I've never really researched Opus Dei so

00:52:15.160 it's only fair if I just leave it there because I don't want to say things and it's just

00:52:19.580 completely wrong you know that's fair isn't it probably should know more about opus day i

00:52:25.500 probably should i don't okay on this day 1944 polish resistance fighters capitulate

00:52:32.740 in the warsaw uprising after an estimated quarter of a million people killed was it that many 0.84

00:52:37.580 but okay yeah as the mr hitler's nazi hordes are losing world war ii and retreating all the way 0.76

00:52:47.380 From the Russian hinterlands 0.65

00:52:49.880 All the way across

00:52:51.160 Eastern Europe and Poland

00:52:52.520 And then into Germany ultimately 0.71

00:52:53.920 And the Red Army 0.81

00:52:56.080 Mr. Stalin's

00:53:01.360 Use of Yugoslavia's armies 0.62

00:53:03.160 Chasing them 0.83

00:53:04.240 When they got near Warsaw 0.99

00:53:07.200 Like Polish nationalists 0.78

00:53:10.220 All sorts of Polish people 1.00

00:53:11.440 Thought this is like our window of time 1.00

00:53:14.460 We obviously resented 1.00

00:53:16.200 Being invaded and occupied by the Germans 1.00

00:53:18.660 We don't really actually want to be 0.99

00:53:21.020 Invaded and occupied by 1.00

00:53:22.680 Bolsheviks either

00:53:23.920 Communists, Russian communists 0.97

00:53:26.060 We don't want that either 1.00

00:53:26.920 There was any moment in time

00:53:29.220 When potentially we could rise up

00:53:32.480 Take back our own

00:53:34.260 Sovereignty, our own 0.79

00:53:36.260 You know, sort of national

00:53:38.540 Self-determination

00:53:40.180 And have the

00:53:42.380 Tiniest slither of a chance

00:53:44.500 of standing up to the communists they might treat us seriously at some sort of negotiating table

00:53:52.020 we need to at least win our own freedom from the nazis whilst the nazis are at the

00:54:00.100 at their lowest ebb or near their lowest ebb on the retreat and and all that sort of thing

00:54:05.880 so they tried to do that and it didn't work it didn't work the germans decided despite how

00:54:12.440 terribly the war in the east and the west was going you know d-day was a while ago now

00:54:17.640 june the 6th 1944 that's in the rearview mirror already the third reich is collapsing from every

00:54:24.500 angle but the decision was made in okw in german high command now we're still going to use a lot

00:54:30.480 of men and time and energy and money to crush this new warsaw uprising and they did apparently

00:54:37.020 But it was so brutal, the crushing of it, that even the Nazis put some of their own senior

00:54:42.720 guys on trial for effectively, like, war crimes.

00:54:51.140 You know it's bad, right, when that happens?

00:54:55.800 Even the Nazis were like, whoa, calm down.

00:54:58.000 Whoa, that was a bit...

00:55:00.000 In 1944, we're like, whoa, that was a bit...

00:55:02.780 I know we asked you to do that, but calm down a bit, bro.

00:55:07.900 All right, the Warsaw Uprising.

00:55:09.980 On this day in 2007, President Romu Hwan,

00:55:14.000 have I pronounced that correctly?

00:55:16.840 Almost certainly not, of South Korea,

00:55:19.000 walks across the military demarcation line into North Korea

00:55:22.140 on his way to the second inter-Korean summit

00:55:25.140 with North Korean leader Kim Jong-il.

00:55:28.760 Yeah, I remember that a little bit.

00:55:30.160 sort of a well not sort of is a symbolic moment for north south korean relations

00:55:38.520 most of the rest of the world don't really care one way or another well about that detail anyway

00:55:43.700 care about like the korean peninsula in the broadest sense but like

00:55:48.320 for koreans that was like a bit of a big deal at the time

00:55:54.780 all right let's have a look at our rumba rants and superchats

00:55:57.420 let me do this with my boom mic so i can see the left hand side of my screen

00:56:00.840 i wonder if global church history is going to be back i do i do miss his factoids i don't think he

00:56:06.960 is i had a quick look a quick glance down earlier and he wasn't there no he's not well i hope he'll

00:56:13.740 be back soon global church history try and get your um your rumble account sorted out hashtag

00:56:21.300 pray for global church history's rumble account okay instead then we've got somebody new in at

00:56:26.140 number one. Davyverse. Somebody called Davyverse is in at number one. They say, oh, they're

00:56:35.980 going to give us a fact, lovely. They say, in 1452, King Richard III was born on this

00:56:42.880 day. The past Plantagenet king, do you mean to put the last Plantagenet king? I mean,

00:56:50.440 yeah, the last proper Plantagenet king was Richard II, though, wasn't it? Because after

00:56:56.020 that they're all cadet branches. They are the Plantagenets, they are, to be fair, but

00:56:59.960 they're cadet branches, aren't they? The House of York and the House of Lancaster.

00:57:06.860 Still, can say he was a Plantagenet, even if it's sort of a cousin branch. Certainly

00:57:13.920 after him, Henry Tudor, Henry VII, we mentioned earlier, he's certainly not a Plantagenet,

00:57:21.100 isn't it? The Tudors are descended from Welsh nobodies. Yeah, the Tudors came from Welsh 0.99

00:57:27.800 nothing. The O in Tudor. Just a Welsh knight. I say nothing. It wasn't a true peasant. It's 0.97

00:57:34.680 just a knight. I think I've gone through all of that in quite a lot of detail on Epochs.

00:57:42.180 Odate Epochs on lotusseeters.com. Go over to lotusseeters.com. I've gone through all

00:57:48.440 the Wars of the Roses, Edward IV, Richard III, all of it, Henry Tudor, and quite a lot of detail,

00:57:55.500 sort of short audio book level of detail, quoting from all sorts of histories, Professor Sir Charles

00:58:00.640 Oman, Churchill's History of the English-Speaking Peoples, all sorts of books. It's good content,

00:58:05.840 it's good content. Okay, Richard III was born on this day in 1452. Okay, the next couple are also

00:58:14.700 davey verse next one he says and today are we going to get another one he says and today in 1836

00:58:19.840 i think the hms beagle carrying darwin's the theory shaping specimens arrived back in england

00:58:26.300 i've talked about that before haven't i so if you're interested i would say don't start with

00:58:31.820 origin of the species start with another book called the voyage of the beagle you'll get it

00:58:37.400 you'll be able to get it just in like penguin paperback or whatever like 9.99 or something

00:58:41.180 from amazon the voyage of the beagle by charles darwin a fascinating story fascinating story

00:58:48.860 yeah he went round the world on a ship called the beagle to the galapagos islands and all sorts of

00:58:54.860 places yeah check it out hms beagle uh the voyage of the beagle very good read okay davy verse says

00:59:03.660 finally today in the year 2026 so today in the year 2026 of our lord and savior jesus christ

00:59:12.100 i'll be proposing to my girlfriend oh congratulations oh cool oh have you got a ring

00:59:19.260 have you got an engagement ring with a big diamond on it you're gonna go down on one knee

00:59:23.980 it's a cliche but it's pretty cool cliche i suppose

00:59:28.140 Best of luck to you sir

00:59:32.280 Best of luck to you

00:59:34.540 Are you pretty confident she'll say yes

00:59:36.060 Usually when most people propose

00:59:39.120 It's almost long overdue

00:59:41.100 And you're 100% guaranteed she's going to say yes

00:59:43.160 It must be terrifying to not have that

00:59:45.880 Usually most people have been in a long term relationship

00:59:48.160 For years and they've talked about it

00:59:50.380 And of course she's going to say yes

00:59:52.540 She's been waiting for a couple of years already

00:59:54.920 but i must be really nerve-wracking to be not sure you haven't been together all that long

01:00:01.640 she might say no i hope you're in the situation davy verse where it's a slam dunk she's just

01:00:08.940 going to say yes she's just going to start crying with joy immediately and of course it's a yes

01:00:12.760 fingers crossed it's that okay cool best of luck to you sir genuinely genuinely best of luck

01:00:20.820 okay let us know how it goes on monday unless it's a complete disaster and then just

01:00:28.260 sweep it under the carpet okay next one is dragon lady chris uh how are how are you madam

01:00:37.580 thank you for sending in super chats you put hey harry what's with the change from the good

01:00:43.660 intro outro music to the music it is now we rumblers have been wondering all week well

01:00:50.540 i think we explained this more than months haven't we yeah possibly it's just copyright

01:00:58.300 issues um so we got big harry to make a piece of music yeah so the old music intro outro music we

01:01:08.240 had we legitimately bought it from some website where you can do that and yet it kept getting

01:01:15.380 copyright struck because people are scumbags they try and take a copyright claim on something that 0.95

01:01:23.060 isn't theirs people do that scumbags do that and it happened what three times was it more than three 0.97

01:01:29.780 times little harry yeah it was a lot and they get sorted quite quickly but in the interim it's just 0.99

01:01:37.660 It just became a bit of a pain in the arse 0.97

01:01:40.720 I liked that jingle 0.99

01:01:41.980 I know a lot of you did, I also did

01:01:44.260 But we had to

01:01:46.100 We had to change it out, we kind of had to

01:01:48.220 Really change it out

01:01:49.340 So we got big Harry, Harry Robinson

01:01:51.920 Who does right music

01:01:53.820 He's a musician

01:01:54.920 To do us a new one

01:01:57.120 I said

01:02:00.280 I like the

01:02:02.220 Tone, the sound of what we've got

01:02:06.160 I like Crockett's theme

01:02:07.560 you do something for me along the line of Crockett's theme

01:02:10.560 anyway he wrote

01:02:12.280 from scratch the one we've got now

01:02:13.960 and we use it now and there's just no

01:02:15.880 apparently there's no possibility we're going to have to keep

01:02:18.280 worrying about getting copyright struck

01:02:20.340 for it because Harry Robinson

01:02:22.460 actually fashioned

01:02:24.440 it from scratch

01:02:25.600 so that's why that is

01:02:28.460 that's why that is

01:02:29.380 okay alright next one

01:02:34.420 next one is That's Their Name

01:02:36.320 that's what they call themselves that's underscore their underscore name says all right chap yeah i'm

01:03:12.360 be able to make it ah that's really frustrating i didn't realize it was this weekend uh i need

01:03:19.020 to organize myself a bit better i actually need like a diary secretary i actually need someone

01:03:28.020 to sort of organise my time for me a bit better.

01:03:31.320 I'm really, really quite busy.

01:03:34.260 Between this, having an actual life,

01:03:39.060 state of politics,

01:03:39.980 state of politics,

01:03:41.120 and stuff I do for Restore,

01:03:43.400 local party Restore stuff in Swindon South,

01:03:46.260 between all of that,

01:03:48.280 my time's just completely full up.

01:03:50.140 It's kind of completely full up.

01:03:52.980 I didn't realise it was this Saturday. 0.99

01:03:54.960 Crap. 0.99

01:03:55.660 And it's in London, yeah, 0.99

01:03:56.440 I won't be able to make that.

01:03:58.020 anyway if anyone can go there check it out i think someone on twitter said what's this

01:04:03.380 thing about basket weaving i'm interested in basket weaving no it's not it's not

01:04:09.380 there's no actual weaving of baskets going on it's just what it's called it's like a social

01:04:15.380 club organization thing not social club but it's just a social organization of people getting

01:04:20.900 together like many people getting together and having a drink sometimes and maybe a talk or

01:04:24.900 or whatever, and other stuff.

01:04:26.580 There's no actual physical basket weaving.

01:04:28.700 Although, if you wanted to sit there in the pub,

01:04:30.680 weaving a basket, no one's going to stop you.

01:04:33.820 All right.

01:04:34.860 Next one is Acidhelm.

01:04:36.100 Next to Acidhelm, who says,

01:04:38.260 Morning, B.

01:04:38.880 Morning.

01:04:41.180 Looking to be a nice day.

01:04:43.280 Yeah, hopefully.

01:04:44.000 It's a bit crisp down in the southwest of England,

01:04:46.780 in Wiltshire, but nice enough.

01:04:48.420 Not freezing.

01:04:49.220 Not blowing a gale while raining,

01:04:50.480 which is about the best you can hope for

01:04:51.660 in Wiltshire in October.

01:04:53.220 It's not blowing a gale.

01:04:54.260 it's not blowing rain horizontally into your face then you're winning says uh wouldn't happen

01:05:02.480 to know of anywhere i can watch hours and hours of history content literature discussions and

01:05:07.120 economics broken down by a funny slightly rotund man um let me think let me think off the top of

01:05:12.500 my head oh yeah lotusseaters.com because for five pound a month for us team membership not only do

01:05:16.520 you get history themed combat content by yours truly but you'll also get literature themed

01:05:21.940 content by luca johnson you know that luca johnson he's well all right he is he's glad you get

01:05:27.940 economics content by dan tub big danny t and then you get um was it geopolitical stuff by firaz modad

01:05:39.860 a lebanese man who knows about geopolitics to an extraordinary degree truly extraordinary

01:05:46.740 Well, it's a profession.

01:05:48.880 It's literally a professional in it.

01:05:51.440 Before, not even including Lotus Eaters.

01:05:55.460 Load of philosophy content from an actual real-life living Athenian philosopher, PhD.

01:06:03.580 Stelios.

01:06:05.060 And some older stuff, like Big Josh Firms, The Firminators, Contemplation Series.

01:06:09.920 A few hundred episodes of that, aren't there?

01:06:12.720 About all sorts of stuff.

01:06:13.780 You actually, for £5 a month

01:06:16.500 Get an insane amount of content

01:06:18.240 You really do

01:06:18.660 It's crazily generous

01:06:20.060 As far as tiering systems go

01:06:21.940 I don't think many other websites or places

01:06:24.600 We get basically everything for the lowest tier

01:06:27.260 Okay, next one is Asitam again

01:06:30.460 It says

01:06:30.720 Been seeing people trying to say 0.94

01:06:34.720 How can you say Islam is a violent, oppressive religion

01:06:37.420 When the Crusades happened? 1.00

01:06:39.260 Well, the Crusades were 0.99

01:06:40.180 Crusades were a reaction to Islam 1.00

01:06:45.740 First and foremost 1.00

01:06:46.640 But okay

01:06:47.240 Then you put 1.00

01:06:48.340 It's retarded because the Muslim conquests 1.00

01:06:50.740 Is why we had to go crusade in the first place 1.00

01:06:53.040 Right

01:06:53.240 If you look at the first crusade

01:06:56.100 Called at Claremont

01:06:57.640 By what was it

01:06:58.140 Urban II

01:06:58.800 In what the 1090s

01:07:01.700 Bernard of Clairvaux

01:07:05.300 Advocating for it

01:07:06.500 Yeah

01:07:06.800 That's because 1.00

01:07:07.840 Jerusalem had been taken by a Muslim hall 1.00

01:07:10.160 And they'd captured the Church of the Holy Sepulchre 1.00

01:07:15.220 We're apparently using it as a stable

01:07:17.860 That whole argument 1.00

01:07:22.840 Oh how can you ever be in your bonnet about the violence of Islam 1.00

01:07:26.420 When Christians have also been violent in the past 1.00

01:07:28.720 Non sequitur 1.00

01:07:30.200 Right

01:07:33.120 That's their name

01:07:35.040 It says

01:07:35.440 someone from reform is blaming restore for losing blackpool

01:07:41.840 had the old tories joined in you they would have won they're afraid elsewhere time elsewhere time

01:07:50.840 to walk doggo okay yeah the amount that reform spurred out that restore is responsible for all 0.94

01:07:58.820 their failures is pathetic now it's absolutely pathetic just like in what was it makerfield 0.95

01:08:06.720 where even if every single vote that went to restore had gone to reform they still would 0.99

01:08:12.220 have lost handily they're still trying to blame restore nonsense it's nonsense no reform need to

01:08:19.140 win or lose on their own merits regardless of all the other parties that's how that works

01:08:23.120 yeah that's how that works the endless oh you're splitting the vote you're letting the leftists

01:08:29.140 back in well not not currently that's not how that works that's not how that works i think

01:08:33.300 maybe once or twice has been an example like a local councillor or something where if every

01:08:38.460 single restore vote had gone to reform reform might have won and they didn't i think there's

01:08:44.220 one example of that somewhere but even if that is the case so what hey reform cards it's up to you

01:08:52.480 To win or lose on your own merits

01:08:54.360 It's as simple as that

01:08:57.980 It really is as simple as that 1.00

01:08:59.720 Pathetic 1.00

01:09:02.320 It's pathetic 1.00

01:09:03.680 And remember 0.97

01:09:05.960 Restore and Rupert as a political force

01:09:08.000 In its own right

01:09:08.660 Is entirely of Nigel's making

01:09:11.320 Yeah

01:09:13.080 Nigel hadn't

01:09:15.520 Hadn't crapped himself

01:09:16.800 About

01:09:17.520 About Rupert

01:09:20.160 Mentioning re-migration

01:09:21.800 Mass remigration

01:09:23.240 Nigel had the stones 1.00

01:09:25.620 To just accept that in the first place

01:09:27.880 Which he then subsequently accepted

01:09:29.580 Just a few months later

01:09:30.720 Then Restore wouldn't even be a thing at all

01:09:33.500 It's all of their own making 0.99

01:09:35.620 They don't want to bitch and moan about it 0.99

01:09:38.100 Too late 1.00

01:09:38.560 Too late

01:09:39.740 You've got to win entirely on your own merits

01:09:41.840 Win the arguments

01:09:42.900 Keep blaming Restore for everything

01:09:47.400 Not many people buy that

01:09:49.440 not many people really really buy that okay for team barber morning mate all right yeah i'm all

01:09:56.880 right i'm pretty good thank you did you see that wonderful poll that only 35 of great britain

01:10:04.500 wants to return to the eu aunt auntie burnham campaigning for eu return uh would keep him out

01:10:12.660 i didn't see that poll but that's cool i said that yesterday didn't i was it the day before

01:10:16.340 it would be interesting, it would be funny, it would be hilarious

01:10:18.460 if there was a second referendum

01:10:20.240 and the

01:10:21.400 leave vote or remain left

01:10:24.180 remain out of the EU vote

01:10:38.220 good

01:10:41.240 if those are the numbers, if those are accurate numbers

01:10:43.940 it means that somebody like Burnham

01:12:29.180 Website idea

01:12:30.420 You've so much content running

01:12:32.560 Why not set up a live channel

01:12:35.520 That just runs through a program of content

01:12:37.580 That people can have on in the background

01:12:39.540 Log in, turn on, run passively

01:12:42.000 That's a good idea

01:12:43.300 I think that's genuinely

01:12:45.860 It just runs 24-7 on loop

01:12:47.660 And it will take days, week, months

01:12:49.960 For it to loop round

01:12:51.160 Yeah, that's not a bad idea

01:12:53.740 I'm going to mention that to

01:12:55.160 The powers that be

01:12:56.660 As soon as I get out of the office

01:13:07.720 That actually make it happen

01:13:08.700 I'll mention it to him

01:13:09.700 I'll mention it to him

01:18:06.960 If I could help it

01:18:07.860 Especially in any sort of suburban

01:18:10.680 or in a city area

01:18:12.600 where they're going to be in the minority

01:18:14.560 be hated and marginalised

01:22:46.820 picture of a pussycat there george galloway oh god gotta start on george galloway where to begin 0.64

01:22:54.660 now it'll be a 20 minute rant about george galloway all you need to know is i suppose the 0.93

01:23:00.580 headline among dozens of things you could mention why george galloway is revolting revolting

01:23:08.820 is that he's always sided with our enemies much like jeremy corbyn has he's an islamophile

01:23:14.260 a socialist communist

01:23:16.200 he's Scottish 0.95

01:23:16.800 hates England

01:23:17.660 throughout the years

01:23:21.060 he has sided

01:23:21.640 nearly always

01:23:22.740 with whoever

01:23:23.800 our enemies are

01:23:25.140 sided with 1.00

01:23:28.460 Islamic terrorists 0.99

01:23:31.260 Hamas 0.69

01:23:31.780 he was friends with 0.98

01:23:33.940 Saddam Hussein

01:23:35.500 etc etc etc

01:23:37.020 went and visited

01:23:40.000 Saddam Hussein

01:23:40.880 there's pictures of him

01:23:43.380 shaking hands aren't there with Uday Hussein

01:23:45.600 an actual monster 0.77

01:23:46.900 and a communist, a socialist 0.71

01:23:49.580 George Galloway 0.95

01:23:51.520 is despicable on every level 0.99

01:23:53.180 I hate everything he stands for 0.98

01:23:55.740 and of course on top of everything else he's got a chip on his shoulder

01:23:59.360 about England, of course he has

01:24:00.580 I think it was the first segment I ever did

01:24:05.160 I ever ever did

01:24:06.840 on the podcast of the Lotus Eats like five years ago

01:24:09.560 was a segment about George Galloway

01:24:11.540 I think, he just happened to be in the news that day

01:24:13.340 cynically trying to get a seat in parliament again by appealing to the islamic vote 0.96

01:24:19.160 in some islamic constituency somewhere he's gross he's gross the more you look into the 0.95

01:24:23.740 details of who he is what he is i don't know why people still like him even people on the 0.99

01:24:28.580 center right kind of like him they're like no he's all right actually he's very very quick

01:24:33.020 very very clever i don't deny that he's very very good at being an orator he's very very sharp

01:24:41.080 Among the sharpest people you will find

01:24:43.200 I won't deny that

01:24:44.020 But his politics, to me, are revolting

01:24:47.960 An enemy

01:24:49.880 I consider him an enemy

01:24:51.140 Okay, James Lee Parenthold says

01:24:53.560 Henry VII's field canteen was organised by Sir Richard Lee the farmer

01:24:58.280 My 13th great-grandfather

01:25:00.620 Sir Richard's son, Sir Robert Lee, was H8's bodyguard

01:25:05.880 Oh, Henry VIII's bodyguard

01:25:08.860 oh right yeah yeah yeah said a few times you've got uh your family tree goes back to the tudors

01:25:14.760 or beyond actually beyond okay global footjob history again says maybe i'm biased because i

01:25:20.420 played him but the last legit plantagenet was richard iii not richard ii as you said

01:25:25.940 don't play with me well the plantagenet line

01:25:30.280 the plantagenet line through richard through edward iii went down to his son the black prince

01:25:37.960 Who never got to be king

01:25:39.240 Because Edward III lived too long 1.00

01:25:42.760 The Black Prince died 0.97

01:25:45.640 In his 40s 1.00

01:25:47.960 And it passed down to his son

01:25:49.720 Richard II

01:25:50.940 Right, so that's the Plantagenet Lion

01:25:54.440 Down to Richard II

01:25:55.300 Then Richard II did not have

01:25:57.420 Any legitimate children at all

01:25:59.420 And in the end was imprisoned and murdered

01:26:02.000 Probably starved to death

01:26:04.100 So that's the end of the legit

01:26:06.420 Plantagenet Lion

01:26:07.480 But then you've got cadet branches of the family

01:26:10.240 It went to Bolingbroke, Henry IV

01:26:12.320 The House of Lancaster

01:26:14.200 And then the House of York and Lancaster

01:26:16.560 Had the Hundred Years War

01:26:17.340 So they are Plantagenet

01:26:18.680 Richard III is a Plantagenet

01:26:21.200 But it's not the true lion

01:26:24.040 It's a cousin branch

01:26:25.700 It's a cadet branch of the family

01:26:27.200 That's all I'm saying

01:26:28.900 Okay

01:26:30.580 Daniel D. King says

01:26:33.680 That was me with the basket weaving confusion

01:26:37.260 Oh, okay, yeah

01:26:38.080 I tried to find that tweet later

01:26:40.420 I saw that and I had to move

01:26:41.640 I couldn't immediately reply

01:26:42.840 Because I was doing stuff

01:26:43.500 Then later I was like
