| 0:00.0 | What Most Impulse. |
| 0:04.1 | Hello and welcome to this week's episode of What Most People think and I'm going to bring in my guest straight away because I'm delighted to have him back. |
| 0:41.1 | But you're not back though, are you, Andrew Doyle? You're joining us live from Arizona. What are you doing out there? Well, I'm in Arizona for a while. I'm looking into the very much, very seriously looking into the prospect and moving here permanently. So I'm here for the time being, checking stuff out. I went to visit Tombstone the other day, which is really my real reason for wanting to come here so I could go and relive the Val Kilmer, Kurt Russell film, because it's just down the road |
| 0:45.5 | for me, really, a couple of hours away. |
| 0:47.6 | Arizona, very cool. |
| 0:48.6 | I mean, we were talking just before we came on here about, you know, these people, |
| 0:51.7 | when somebody they don't like gets in power, they flee and then you've sort of gone, well, I'm going to go to that place, you were suggesting there could be some sort of cultural exchange scheme? Well, yeah, because Rose O'Donnell and Helen Hunt have gone to Ireland and myself and Graham Linehan have gone over to America, so we could, we could actually make that an official thing, to swap citizenship. I think that would work really well. And they're fleeing Trump. I could say that I was fleeing Stama. I mean, it's not true, but I could say it. But he's not, he's not fleable, is it? I mean, he's really deeply disappointed, annoying, irritating human being, but that's part of the reason you wouldn't flee. What a damnable indictment to be not fleable. |
| 2:01.1 | You're just not a fleable leader. He's not a fleable person. Well, listen, maybe you could do it. They used to do this thing with council flats back in the day where like if you lived by the sea and you wanted to get in London, vice versa. It could be like a council flat exchange screen. And look, there's so many people over in the US who are complaining about Trump and so many people in the UK complaining about Stama. This just solves absolutely everything. We could do it in one fell swoop and then everyone be politically homogenized in either country. I think it's a winner. Let's create a fluid global system where everybody leaves where they live based on the reaction to the last election. It's interesting you mentioned Stama there and him not being fleable. One of the |
| 2:05.8 | things we're going to talk about in this week's show is just what is Keir Stama? There's a real |
| 2:10.6 | kind of hodgepotch of policies and directions, you know, from a tax and spend budget last |
| 2:16.4 | time to a bit of diet austerity this time to supposedly a left-wing guy, you know, from a tax and spend budget last time to a bit of diet austerity this time, to supposedly a left-wing guy, but it seems to be, didn't take that much nudging to be Trump's best made. So we're going to talk about that and the upcoming spring statement. I should time check this. This is six o'clock UK time on the Monday. So just if you're listening to this after the spring statement, that will be why we haven't said things that were in the spring statement. And we're also going to continue to chat about the TV show Adolescence last week and the whole the hand-wringing that it prompted in terms of what's going on with young men. And we're going to get Andrew's take on that. And in the Patriot only, we're going to talk about what is the woke right? What is it? |
| 2:51.5 | What is it, Andrew? In a nutshell, just give people a little tease here. What is the woke right? |
| 2:55.8 | It is those who are on the right side of politics as opposed to the left side of politics who are, |
| 3:00.9 | who have a tendency towards authoritarianism and censorship as the woke left do. |
| 3:06.1 | So I was going to say, that sounds familiar, or offence archaeology as well. A bit of that and also an obsession with group identity. So there are all these traits that link them that have nothing to do with left and right. I mean, we'll go into it later, no doubt, but I've never thought that the culture war has anything to do with left and right. So it makes perfectly sense that you've got woke people on the left and the right. |
| 3:25.2 | Yeah, it's increasing the woke right and the woke left are a Venn diagram where there's only one circle. |
| 3:31.5 | New patrons, as you know, Andrew, we roast names here. |
| 3:34.9 | And we've got James Kennard. |
| 3:36.6 | James Kennard sounds to me like a guy that does really expensive bathroom surfaces. |
| 3:42.3 | James Kenard Kitchens, James Kenard Kitchens, JKK. |
| 3:45.5 | That would work. |
| 3:47.0 | I also see it as a kind of, it could work as a scholar's name as well, James Kenard. |
