“Clueless enough to have Ann Coulter on; really egregious r/w trash. Contrary to the show’s description, it’s not really “in depth”, and seems to want to carry a recurring theme of “no collusion”. BTW, writing this review, the following text came up automatically on the screen: “Insular right wing nonsense.” (Why? This is not a reply to a previous review.)
Wouldn’t have written it myself but basically agree, and it’s what you might expect from a Brit who seems to speak through his back teeth & clenched jaw. Just a cultural quirk of some in class-bound land of Brexit, I suppose.
The best episode, enlivening and actually worth hearing, would be the recent one with Thomas Frank, shortly after the 2019 State of the Union speech. A peephole into the real world of history and context opened up in the thick shell of the smug Tory-ish neo-liberal world view.
Other than that, predictable, tedious and disappointing, even for the Spectator, where Gray’s columns . . . appear.”
