    Who?
    I love Brendan but the last two podcasts were not up to par. Bridget Phetasy is not intelligent or interesting. What unique insight or point of view does she have? She is vapid and boring. Brendan needs to not do podcasts when his guests, especially the last two, are blathering gossip media hacks.
  • The S.K.P. Machine
    Blind to His Own Bigotry
    O’Neill rightly denounces anti-Jewish conspiracy theories, but he is more than happy to traffic in anti-Catholic conspiracy theories, such as the supposed “link” between transgender ideology & Transsubstantiation.

    Request for Information
    On Joe Rogan Experience (4-16-24) you mentioned a highly important/influential article during the Chartist Movement. Please point to its location by way of this podcast. Thank You. You’re one of the few thinkers worth listening to.

    Crap show - interviews seldom go anywhere interesting - you can hear the same content on many other pods - he really needs to do some research before he talks to people. Nodding along with whiners and conspiracists is not journalism.
  • ShyTory
    Smart and sane
    Brendan is a beacon of pure sanity in dark times. No exaggeration. This podcast gives me a shield against crazy. It’s not me, it’s them, and this too shall pass.
  • MamanParisienne
    But take another look at Eric Zemmour
    He’s saying important things and he is relentlessly smeared.

    Descent into whackoville
    When this show started it was great. The guests are now conforming and weird and never challenged on their opinions. If you already believe in p’owning the Libs then this is the podcast for you.

    A lighthouse.
    “A lighthouse in a foggy world” from the Capra movie ‘Meet John Doe’ -which after listening to the Kellie Ray interview one should watchh that movie.( their only relationship is excellence and the good fight)
  • Michael Robert Wood
    Fantastic
    This podcast is a breath of fresh air. I have completely cut out mainstream news from my diet for several years now. Podcasts like these are the future of news in my opinion
  • Elphilipe
    This should be called “The Straw Man Podcast”
    The subject matter and even the point of view aligns closely with my interests and me on the shows I’ve heard. But the latitude given guests to spin out logical fallacies and nonsense is disappointing.

    Meh
    I don’t care
  • RenewedAgora
    Well done
    They don’t make them like Bo’N much anymore...

    One of my favorite podcast. Very insightful
  • kinast195
    Great discovery!
    Just discovered this podcast and so pleased to find such a refreshing diversion from the mainstream woke media and broadcasts. I desperately need this along with the likes such as Sam Harris, Megyn Kelly and the Quillette team to name a few. Thank you.

    Brilliant
    Brendan O’Neill is intelligent and committed to free speech. His guests are timely and smart and Spiked is worth the support of all lovers of liberty and individual rights.
  • kacemaster
    Interesting topics, too much filibustering by host
    O’Neil is a great podcast guest. As a host, his “questions” often wander for 2-3 minutes to the point where you forget there’s actually a guest he’s speaking to. Still worth listening but it’s tedious at times because of the monologues.
  • bonnie brodie
    Excellent discussions
    Just discovered Brandon O’Neill and spiked and really enjoy his intelligent and brave contrarian views

    Michael Lind, burning bush
    The interview w Michael Lind is the podcast of the year, unless Brendan has Lind back again in 2020. The most searching analysis of our present moment I’ve yet heard. Is there a finer interviewer than B.O.? Not that I’ve seen.

    Fantastic
    Wonderfully rational
  • A NR winner
    Intelligent, balanced voice
    Interesting guests and great debates.

    What’s a Tory?
    I’ll learn UK political terms JUST so I can understand everything being said here. It’s that good! Basic premise: wokeness is 180degrees opposite of what it claims to be. The threat of being kicked out of society for saying the “emperor has no clothes!” is a more powerful and dangerous form of censorship than any formal written plan. Smart, to the point, simple, fun, and good!
  • InSearchOfSanity
    The Dictionary Definition of A Liberal Progressives.
    In a media world where those claiming to be ‘liberal progressives’ are actually illiberal and regressive, the likes of Spiked & BO’N actually do what they say on the tin!
  • Becccamell
    Yes yes yes!!
    Articulate, intelligent, provocative—never a dull moment! Despite living in California, and sometimes not “getting” all the references to British current events, I learn much that’s relevant to today’s world, and find myself shouting and even laughing “Yes!!” “Exactly!” to many points made by Brendan and guests. A big “ta” to all for this podcast.
  • Sutty33

    My favorite podcast
    Easily my favorite podcast. Also love the real debates Brendan has with SJWs on YouTube.
  • SrjG
    Intellectually Outstanding
    The quality of the guests and particularly the interviewer is of the highest standard. I haven’t been this engaged by a podcast in a long time.
  • Brargis
    Superb
    Really really good interviews of the highest quality
  • maltvinegarfish and chips
    Stimulating thought provoking dialogue
    Thoughtful independently minded, riveting interviews that leave you with a feast of food for thought.
  • lizl61
    Interesting and thoughtful interviews
    Fantastic conversations that make you think, learn and consider different points of view. Brendan is a respectful interviewer, he listens - a refreshing change from the supercilious know-it-alls that pervade journalism today
  • gandj4l
    High quality
    Always a good conversation.
  • soilandstar
    outstanding and thoughtful
    This podcast provides common insights that are not so common anymore.
  • TheFreelanceTeacher
    Thoughtful and deep.
    Always a deeply thorough discussion - often about topics that are off limits to the mainstream. I recommend it to my students and to you.
  • quinntopia
    A voice of reason
    In these hysterical times, Brendan provides a rational, intelligent, and sound voice. Highly recommended.
  • Louis Lyons
    Very Measured and Intellectually Stimulating
    I very much enjoyed his discussion with Jonathan Haidt.
  • thejuicnator
    Fantastic Podcast
    Even though I'm in the U.S., I find the content interesting and relevant (considering the current anti-free speech climate here). I discovered Brendan's Unsafe Space Tour videos on YouTube and was impressed with his ability to articulate these issues and a present a logical counter-argument. Look forward to future episodes.
  • fantasyfanz
    Enjoyed
    Enjoyed this. Good interview style. Good content.
  • Cashola4
    Great show
    I love the podcast as I have been a huge fan of Brendan since I first stumbled on his work a couple of years ago. I love to see/hear him debate and use reason to put down anti-liberalism.
  • JohnnyDaz
    Great first show
    Excellent in depth conversation with a lot of good points. I’m looking forward to future podcasts.
