What Most Impulse?

Hello and I didn't mention on this breaking news episode of what most people think.

And I didn't mention on this week's main episode that I was

feeling a bit ill. So apologies if I was a bit low energy on Tuesday. But I think I think I finally

got this thing. Anyway, the illness gods just heard that. I went, fuck you, Jeff. One more week

of illness. But anyway, I'm doing a breaking news for a different reason than usual. Now, usually I'll do a breaking news because big political stuff has happened during the week. And we will discuss some of that, including PMQs and Donald Trump and what's happening with Ukraine. But I don't know if you've seen, but there's been this show on Netflix called Adolescence, right? There's been a lot of reaction to it as a show.

And the media have tuned in, again, briefly.

They do it every once in a while.

It's like Haley's comment.

They've tuned in briefly to the plight of young men.

And in many cases come up with all the wrong answers, right,

about what's going on with young men.

So, and, you know, as you'd expect, they're quite scared to talk about class or the impact of poor educational outcomes on white working class boys or the absence of dads. You know, a lot of it is just an excuse for them to tell you how much they hate Andrew Tate. So that'll be coming up later in the show after we discuss the politics of the week. But new patrons, remember if you are a Patreon, you get the, a Patron, a Patron. You get the podcast early ad-free and with bonus content. You get a weekly Patreon-only edition. So we've got a couple of new ones. We've had one new one since Tuesday's episode, and that is Marik Carras. Marik Marik Karas. That is the most challenging name I've ever had to roast. Having said that, you do mention in the word roast, you do

sound like you could be one of those, one of those guys that gets on Sunday brunch. You know those

guys? Sunday brunch is underrated as a show man. Everyone my age watches it. And you just wake up and you get little theories in your head about the beautiful food you can have that day or the creative alcohol or the cocktails you're going to mix. And it ends up with me getting a dairy milk and a can of fosters from the off license. But it's nice to dream. Marek Karras, I reckon he's opened up a new restaurant in Hoxton. And it's like some concept food. It's like English tapas. It's kind of like, yeah, you know, so the fusion is, you know, my background comes from like Eastern Europe. But I fuse that with, so what we've got is like chips and cabbage but in a tiny like a vol avant

and he would say like that as well a volumont so Marek Karas have I got your heritage correct there

marik Karas let me know mate but so you're welcome to the patron community though I might just have

offended you domain talking point well not domain talking point, but feedback. So the episode

earlier this week with Eric McElroy, some people enjoyed it, some people felt that Eric was a bit

too partisan. I can't remember what I said in the show, but Eric, he's a Democrat, out and proud,

you know, and he, I think he does stuff, you know, for the Democrats in the UK, but I always think

it's nice to get different perspectives. And for once, right? For once, there were criticism to the show, but Jeff pushed back. I pushed back. Oh, Jeffrey pushed back. But look, if you want to have stuff that maybe you more predominantly agree with, our guest next week is Andrew Doyle. What most people think. So I know I've been hyping the tour a lot, but I want to say thank you to people that have been coming to the work in progress legs. As I've been saying about the work in progress legs, right? It's a bit cheaper, but some of it will be a bit shit. I think that's a fair deal, isn't it? It's a few quid cheaper, but some of it I'll be trying for... like, as I'm recording this tonight, I'm doing one in Sudbury, which is sold out at, I don't know what I said that, maybe needed to make myself feel better, but I'm going to try a new bit. So this is the new bit I'm going to try tonight, is about just, you know, people talk about feeling tired, ill or depressed once they get into middle age. I sort of wondering what we're comparing it to, right?
