The secret was to record an episode and then have it fail completely at the editing stage so we ended up with more practice under our belts.

I'm really putting it down to a big coming together of a lot of people invested in the project. Every aspect of the podcast has been voted on or discussed in an open forum without any one person having total authority over the whole thing short of me while i'm editing it.

Collectivism works :)

I'd like to point out that in the lost episode, I got 4/4 on comment or commentariat, and I'm mostly sad about my great success never making the light of day.

Like I said in the ep, there are zero qualifying criteria for being a print journalist with the exception of connections.

I mean yeah, absolutely, metal is very dumb even when it's great, and suicidal depressive black metal is just emo for people too insecure to admit that they like emo. And third wave ska is the work of the devil himself and needs to be destroyed with a cleansing fire.

I'm surprised yiz aren't more familiar with GK Chesterton. It's also perhaps a bit reductive of the guy you were quoting to have called him a conservative Christian, whilst he fits that in broad strokes he's a wee bit more complicated than that (And infinitely more intelligent than the dipshits invoking his name today. He actually was a smart man and he'd have thought the 'rationalists' were complete numpties). Frex. he fiercely hated eugenics and saw exactly where it was leading, and hated Hitler from the start. Puts him well above most of the modern right.

Hello, dear
I really think it is because of May's delusions of grandeur and just plain wanting to be PM that this poo poo has escalated from what could have been a forgettable sort of early 2000s foot and mouth crisis to something you would have to seek past centuries to find

Children may yet learn of her as the escalator

What’s the best way to actually listen to the podcast? I generally use the generic Apple podcast app on my iPhone, but I suspect this won’t be appearing on there in the near future. Is there a better way than just streaming it off the website?

Nah. May was a significant part of how the problem developed, but the main thing was that there was a vote to leave the EU while the Conservatives were in government. That was always going to result in some flavour of deranged ghoul muscling everyone else aside in a mad rush to turbofuck the country. May was just the one we got.

Usually, you can subscribe to a podcast in most players using its RSS feed. The UKMT podcast has an RSS feed on the site.

Riot police out in Glasgow as Irish unity march sparks disorder

The Guardian posted:

Riot police, mounted officers, a force helicopter and dog units are being used in Glasgow after protesters against an Irish unity march sparked “significant disorder”.

Police said the planned march through the city’s Govan area, organised by the James Connolly Republican Flute Band, was met by hundreds of “disruptive” counter-demonstrators at about 7pm.

Witnesses reported smoke bombs being used. The force said this had led to “significant disorder” around Govan Road, which was blocked by officers.
Got to say, "they're using smoke, break out the riot gear & attack dogs!!!!" doesn't sound like the most effective way to stop civil disorder. Wonder which side the cops decided to stomp, idk enough about Scottish sectarianism
