Summary

Is this the end of woke? In this explosive conversation with Andrew Doyle, we dive deep into the signs that the woke movement is finally losing steam — from people quietly removing pronouns from their bios to Keir Starmer's increasingly authoritarian stance. We tackle the culture war, the failure of liberalism, the rise of illiberal Islam in the UK, and why both the left and right are embracing censorship.

Andrew Doyle, author of The New Puritans and creator of Titania McGrath, pulls no punches as he calls out Starmer's Labour for cheering on hate speech laws, dismantles the contradictions of modern progressivism, and explains why the next culture war is already brewing. We also discuss what "woke" even means, and whether liberal democracy can survive in the long run.
