  • Weekly Sceptic Live!
    Welcome to episode 38 of the Weekly Sceptic – live from the Emmanuel Centre in London! The first ever Weekly Sceptic Live was a huge success. The event was sold out, and the feedback was amazing. Massive thanks to everyone who came along. Nick opens the show with five minutes of comedic genius, then Nick and Toby discuss: -Meghan and Harry’s alleged car chase -The continued fallout from NatCon -Insane immigration levels under the Tories -The closure of Triggernometry’s bank account -The rapid decline of Radio 4 (to unexpected cheers from the crowd!) They then move to Birdwatch, focusing on Elon Musk’s recent interview, followed, of course, by ‘Peak Woke’. Daily Sceptic editor Will Jones makes a special appearance, as does a highly famous mystery guest (you will have to listen to find out who!). The show ends with a Q&A, featuring some unsurprisingly intelligent questions from you, our wise and discerning audience. A great night, and a great podcast that is well worth a listen whether you were there or not! The event was very kindly sponsored by CAR26, organised by the brilliant Lois Perry.

  • NatCons v Libtards
    Welcome to this week’s Weekly Sceptic podcast – episode 37! Nick and Toby discuss the National Conservatism conference, having both attended the gala dinner at the Natural History Museum on Monday night. Why has the liberal left convinced itself that it’s some kind of neo-Nazi convention, when the driving force behind National Conservatism is the Israeli intellectual Yarom Hazony? They also defend Douglas Murray, who has been attacked on Twitter for saying in his speech at the gala dinner that Germany has given nationalism a bad name by having ‘mucked up’ twice in the 20th Century. Don’t the haters understand ironic understatement? They go on to discuss the remarks of Sir Simon Macdonald, formerly the top man at the Foreign Office, who bad-mouthed Britain in an interview in the New Statesman. Nick has some sympathies for his gloomy assessment of Britain’s future as a global power – it doesn’t have one, basically – while Toby says he might as well have hoisted the Chinese flag above Whitehall. The next topic is Donald Trump’s ‘Town Hall’, which Nick describes as ‘CNN’s Trump Comedy Special’. The boys agree that Trump projected masculine power, and Nick particularly enjoyed Trump telling the audience that the plaintiff in the recent sexual assault case against him has a cat called ‘Vagina’. But Toby says this might not have been an example of the liberal media shooting itself in the foot, as everyone claims. After all, if it helped to consolidate Trump’s status as the Republican front runner, then that will probably help Joe Biden, who Toby thinks will fare better in a run-off against the former President than against Ron DeSantis. They then talk about the extraordinary amounts of money raised for the defence of Daniel Penny, the ex-marine accused of killing Jordan Neely, and agree that his prosecution is an unwelcome development since it will mean have-a-go-heroes are less likely to intervene to protect the weak and vulnerable from violent males in future. They take time out to marvel at the new ad for Miller Lite, which credits women with inventing beer. Toby says it’s as if Miller Lite saw the damage that Bud Light’s embrace of woke gobbledegook was doing to its sales and said, ‘Hold my beer.’ In Birdwatch, the boys talk about Tucker Carlson’s forthcoming show on Twitter and puzzle over Elon Musk’s appointment of Linda Yaccarino as the new CEO. Does this represent a pivot away from a subscriber-funded platform back to an advertiser-funded one? And what will that mean for free speech on Twitter? Daily Sceptic Editor Will Jones then makes an appearance to talk about the top stories of the week on the site. Finally, the boys compete to see who can come up with the most egregious example of Peak Woke. Sponsored by: -The Stack Assistant.

  • Talking Absolute Monarchs
    Welcome to this week’s Weekly Sceptic podcast – episode 36! Nick and Toby discuss the coronation, the arrested protesters and the selective outrage of the ‘free speech’ supporters (who were notably silent during the lockdown protests). Nick admires Penny Mordaunt’s big sword and predicts a Meghan/Xena-esque response. They debate whether an absolute monarchy would be preferable to a constitutional one.  Nick and Toby discuss whether they believe the Queen said Meghan was evil — Toby is sceptical, even though he thinks it’s true.   The Tories got smashed in the local elections and Toby and Nick discuss whether the Conservatives are finished or not.  Andrew Doyle hosted a televised debate between Andrew Bridgen and Fraser Myers about Myers’ polemical attack on Bridgen in Spiked. The boys discuss who did better and why it may have been a missed opportunity.  They then move on to ‘Across the Pond’, the section of the show about the US, and he and Toby discuss the accidental killing by choking/restraint of a threatening homeless man (Jordan Neely) on a New York subway train. Tucker vs Fox heats up a little as Tucker says he’s going to go nuclear. And Toby brings us the latest on the Bud Lite / Dylan Mulvaney saga and whether Bud Lite may have, in fact, got a raw deal. And Nick discusses the rumour that a former first lady might, in fact, be a man. Nick then falls into a very deep rabbit hole.  This week’s first sponsor is The Stack Assistant and you can reach him to organise a free Zoom consultation about Bitcoin at [email protected]  Dr Will Jones joins Nick for his regular slot discussing the week’s most interesting stories from The Daily Sceptic.  This show’s second sponsor is Thor Holt and you can connect with him at https://www.linkedin.com/in/thorholt/.  You can still get Weekly Sceptic Live show tickets (May 20th at the Emmanuel Centre) at Eventbrite.com. But hurry — there are only 20 left.  To advertise on one of the fastest-growing podcasts in the U.K. – or if you have a question for Dr Peterson – drop Nick or Toby a line on [email protected]  Please go to https://dailysceptic.org/ and make a donation so we can continue to bring you all this high quality content.  Subscribe to Nick’s substack at https://nickdixon.substack.com/.  Listen to Nick’s podcast – The Current Thing – by going here https://currentthingpod.podbean.com.   Produced by Jason Clift.   Music by Tinderella.
