What makes you a heretic? Journalist Andrew Gold believes that, in an age of group-think and tribes, we need heretics - those who use unconventional wisdom to speak out against their own groups, from cancelled comedians and radical feminists to cult defectors and vigilantes hunting deviants.

Learn from my guests how to rebel, think differently and resist social contagion. From Triggernometry's Francis Foster and the world's most cancelled man Graham Linehan to ex-Hasidic Jew Julia Haart and gender critical atheist Richard Dawkins. These are the people living with the weight of their own community's disappointment on their shoulders.

Vanessa G’s Megan Markle

I would just like to point out the sheer ignorance Vanessa displayed by saying a dress costs nothing to the designer. That is absolutely false, especially for couture. And her voice. What an annoying west coast accent. I actually did stop listening to her podcast Infamous- the quality of her journalism went from bad to worst.

OK

Definitely not bad. Certainly better than the Joe Rogan episode when they ate Pizza. The time when there were mouth noises was only really one single episode, and then it wasn’t for the whole thing, just one spot.

Okel1 ,

Blah

The host is not very bright, or he thinks his audience is not very bright.
