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.

Scouts: Uncovering Abuse in America's Most Trusted Institution
Patrick Boyle made a discovery, some years ago, that will change your perception of the traditional Boy Scouts groups. After analysing thousands of files he noticed the vulnerability - and many cases - of children being victims of abuse in these type of groups. Find out more!

HUGE: Is This The End for John Travolta & Scientology?
John Travolta’s involvement in Scientology has a deeper meaning than just participating - as controversial as that already is - His way of living and sexuality play a big role in Aaron’s observation. Ex scientologist and Scientology expert Aaron Smith Levin chatted with me live on YouTube about his theory. It’s amazing to talk with him, I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. Don’t forget to support him on his channel https://www.youtube.com/@GrowingUpInScientology

Toxic Femininity & Male Darkness - Nina Power
Nina Power wrote What Do Men Want to find out how dark it is to be a man. We discuss Russell Brand, toxic femininity, incels (involuntary celibates) and how a lot of incel language was mistakenly stolen from chimpanzees dynamics. Most of all, we talk about what it is to be a heretic, and how some of woke culture is like a death cult.

Customer Reviews
Episode after episode
Great listening! I started listening about six months ago. Episode 199 is a standout for me - super interesting and thank you for letting your guests talk! Bonus points! The royal family is a cult?? That’s a bit of a stretch. The Jon Atack one the week of 7/2/23 is really good. I learned something I didn't know about Charles Manson. Re: RussellBrand: what you should have said is nothing. Live and learnn.
I wish he would quit talking about all the things. YouTube doesn't let him do. It interrupts the flow of the podcast and it's not anything I can do some thing about so just don't bring it up. Just don't do the things you're not supposed to do and just quit talking about it!
Honest Opinion
I mostly love your episodes, this last episode “toxic feminism etc.” is tough to swallow though. Your guest labeling the left a “death cult” was shocking to hear. What she assumed about the left had no nuance and seemed on the edge of extreme bias and characterization. Right wing politics and systems in America have caused incalculable harm to American media, legislation and politics. Also, I find her take on incels very skewed.
Not for me
I used to like your podcast but when you recently said you put a poll on YouTube asking if trans women are LITERALLY women and that the 10% that answered yes were lying or wrong, that's too much. That attitude is why so many people aren't accepting of trans women and men. I'm out. Trans women are women.
