| 0:00.0 | I am campaigning for your right to express your opinions. |
| 0:06.1 | So this censorship war with Spotify, Joe Rogan and artists like Joni Mitchell and Neil Young |
| 0:13.5 | is gathering great momentum up and reporting on it and I think that this could be a landmark |
| 0:20.8 | in the evolution of free speech which is why I've been watching it closely and making my opinions |
| 0:28.4 | very clear. Now I'm going to talk to you about Harry and Meghan waiting in and their pressure. |
| 0:35.2 | I'm going to talk to you about the response from Spotify and interestingly Joe Rogan has just |
| 0:41.6 | published an official response as well. So I've done three or four videos charting the journey of |
| 0:47.4 | this. You can watch them on my Facebook page if you want to see what's going on. I don't want to |

| 1:38.0 | Surely we're all allowed our own opinion on our own podcast. So that's the story to date |
| 1:43.4 | and I've been pushing hard to protect the free speech for Joe Rogan and not to press your |
| 1:51.1 | platforms into canceling others and that it's easy for us not to take action when it's not us |
| 1:57.7 | but you know I think we should take action even when it's not us. I've got a 90 day shadow |
| 2:03.6 | ban on YouTube for saying food has been hard for small businesses. In fact it wasn't even me. |
| 2:09.8 | It was my guest that said it. The fact of the matter is that the C word has been hard for small |
| 2:16.0 | business. That's fact not misinformation. I got accused of misinformation from YouTube and I got |
