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.

Customer Reviews
Indeed a soapbox for right wing nutters
Like another listener mentioned, this series has evolved into a soapbox for right wing nutters being obsessed by gender ideology. Andrew unfortunately fails to see this for himself. Listening to this podcast its hard to imagine this man once worked for the BBC simply due to the complete lack of objective journalism. I tried to contact Andrew about this so he could clarify since he mentioned he disliked another user who gave him a bad rating without discussing this issue with him. Unfortunately he got mad and blocked me. Very mature Andrew.
