Hello, I'm Pete McCormack. This is going to be a very different show we're going to make today.

The other day, I made a show in my car. I got in my car. I was heading out to Amsterdam for a conference

and I was listening to a conversation on the way and I got a bit ranty about it and I made a video

in my car complaining about some of the things going on in the world, the things that I'm

seen, I just make zero sense to me. And so I talked about it with my son, Connor, who helps me

make this show. And he was like, Dad, let's just do it in the studio. Make a proper show. Talk at the camera. Talk to me. Tell people what you're thinking.

Because when we make this show in London, we're always driving into town. We drive home.

We spend, what, two hours con, there and back each way. We're talking about what's going on in the world.

And like most of the time,

I feel like we're living in this parallel universe

because I watch all these debates.

I watch what the politicians are saying.

And then we get into the car and we talk about it

and we're like,

this doesn't make any sense what the

hell is going on what the hell is going on what are they talking about and so either i'm stupid

or they're stupid but we said we're going to make the show um i'm going to talk about the things

i'm seeing what i what i think's going on in the world and then give me your feedback. This is the one time, I think, Connor, you're going to let me read the comments on this one, on you? Yeah, I'm going to read the comments on this one. If this is useful, we'll make loads more of them. And if it's not, then we'll just go back to interviewing people. But I am, I am, how do I put this? I am very worried about the political discourse in this country because I am, how do I put this?

I am very worried about the political discourse in this country because I am seeing politicians argue about policy.

They're arguing about ideas.

And when they're making these arguments about taxation or wealth taxes or immigration

most of them are skirting around the ideas that require a little bit of critical thinking
