| 0:00.0 | Good afternoon to you. It's a warm one here in Seoul for July 31st, 2024. I'm Richie Allen. Hope all is well with you. I look forward to your company between now and the end of the program. If there's anything you'd like to say to me, do it, say it via richie Allen.com.uk. Or use the app for the program. Please do. |
| 0:22.1 | It's the BBC. Not the BBC. This is your Richie Allen show. Live from the magnificent |
| 0:28.7 | city of Salford. It's the Richie Allen show. |
| 0:36.8 | Broadcasting live on richie Allen.com. |
| 0:39.4 | UK and multiple platforms around the world. |
| 0:43.5 | And now, here's your host, Richie Allen. |
| 0:51.3 | Yeah, I had lined up a very interesting academic for you to listen to, and he was going to talk about the money and the forces behind, well, those responsible for a lot of the misinformation that emerged in the wake of the stabbings in Southport on Monday. |
| 1:10.7 | But shortly after agreeing to come on the programme, Mark Owen Jones, who's an author and a PhD at Durham University, he cried off and said he couldn't do it. |

| 1:28.8 | to pre-record but that's okay that happens sometimes you invite people on and they agree and |
| 1:34.8 | then they go and look at your Wikipedia page and they change their minds but it's a real shame |
| 1:39.5 | this because I'd like to wind a few people up today. |
| 1:46.3 | I don't set out to wind anybody up. |
| 1:47.3 | I really don't. |
| 1:48.6 | What I should say there is, |
| 1:53.4 | I know that if he'd come on the program this afternoon, |
| 1:55.7 | it would have annoyed some people. |
| 2:01.7 | You know, the funding, the money behind the likes of Tommy Robinson and others. |
| 2:07.0 | We'll get into a little bit of it on the programme this hour, a little bit later on this hour, |
| 2:10.4 | but I promise I won't overwhelm you with it. I really won't. |
| 2:14.9 | I'm Richie Allen, by the way, if you happen to be listening to the program for the first time, |
| 2:17.8 | and that happens all the time for me enough. I had a lovely email today from somebody who discovered the program only last week. So how are you doing Gavin? Good morning |
