Brilliant podcast! Let’s think critically for once. Why is the French word for “left” a synonym for evil? (For those who don’t know, it’s “sinister”) This is not coincidental! We are products of social conditioning. Breaking out of this conditioning is akin to “rising like a lion after slumber”. (Hence the etymology of the word “woke”.) This is a brilliant series that speaks about both sides of the debate. If anyone knows Oona Chaplin, can they please thank her on my behalf for creating this podcast? Thanks!! #socialistandproud

When I walked around Elephant&castle in the 1980s, there were so much evidence of the history of Charlie Chaplin. There was a pub in his name, and people knew him his history. I know what they say about him and younger women….. but it’s never simple as black or white history, lives are grey. I’m looking forward to listening to the podcast the movie. The kids was powerful to me when I was a child and I have a black-and-white photograph of the two of them together. I think it’s a clever movie there should be looked at deeper…Oona it is always the grandchildren that can look back at the history. It’s too close to your parents……. elephant and Castle today is very different when I came in the 80s and that is life everything changes ❤️❤️
