Planet Normal

Always interesting, and especially so today, approaching the election with Peter Hitchens as a guest.

Thank God for Pearson and Halligan over the last three years. They brought nuance to the fore, and spoke for those of us who didn’t have a platform. I continue to look forward to their weekly podcast.

As a longtime listener and avid fan of the U.K. culture and politics I have to give a resounding “Bravo” “Hoorah” and “Je ne sais quoi” to Allison and Liam. Listening to a clearer perspicacious view of U.K. current affairs by non establishment types like yourselves makes me less want to chunder in the loo and more wish to visit the last great refuge of territory outside the U.K. mainland but still a British Overseas Territory, Gibraltar and pal around with the locals. I’ll probably be listening to Planet Normal on my way there.

As a Brit living abroad this in a wonderful way to catch up on current affairs in the UK and hear a sane, rational and well reasoned common sense view that is sadly lacking from the ubiquitous BBC. It blows my mind that most media companies have been captured by a woke intelligentsia who are so out of touch with everyday people but foist condescending views on us daily over Brexit, the Climate, Gender and everything else. This podcast is the perfect antidote.
