"There seems to be very little effort to maintain and foster that trusting relationship between the channels and the audience, and make amends when things have gone wrong."

Those who do not choose a direction are lost. It is far better to become something than to remain anything but become nothing.

This is despite all the genuine limitations and disappointments that becoming something entails. Everywhere, the cynic despairs, are bad decisions. But someone who has transcended that cynicism (or more accurately, replaced it with an even more profound doubt— that is, the doubt that doubt itself is an ultimately reliable guide) objects: the worst decision of all is none.

"When I’ve gone to the TV stations and been interviewed by a journalist, I’ll have a discussion with the journalist in the green room, and I’m talking to a person then. But as soon as the cameras go on, I’m not talking to a person anymore. I’m talking to someone who’s an adept mouthpiece for a massive corporate organization."

What you most want to find will be found where you least want to look.

There's this old story from King Arthur: King Arthur has these knights, and they're off to find the Holy Grail.

The Holy Grail is the most valuable object - That's what it means. So they're off to find the most valuable thing, but they don't know what it is, and they don't know where it is. But they know that there is such a thing. They don't know where to look... Well, there's a castle in the middle of the forest. So each night each one of them decides to start looking for the Holy Grail by entering the forest at the point that looks darkest to him.

What's the idea there? Well, imagine some things come easy to you and that you're happy about pursuing, you found those things and followed them, and you've mastered them. You know all that. But then there are other places you don't want to go to, you haven't been yet, and you haven't mastered them. They have this monstrous aspect to them.

There will be a lot of things in your life that you're afraid of that you don't want to face. But if you want to put yourself together, that's precisely what you have to do.

It is frequently the case that what you want to find is to be found where you least want to look.

The Impossible Anti-Racism Discourse

“The word “racism” has almost become meaningless: the people who use it the most, they throw it around so liberally that I never believe it when I hear someone brand it that way. I assume it’s someone not being honest and not being truthful.”

Andrew Doyle and I sit down to discuss a variety of topics including his new book, “Free Speech and Why It Matters, the hate crime law in Parliament, the attack on free speech and its importance, Twitter attacks, creativity, and more.

Bring out the best in your child.

"I would almost be in dereliction if I didn’t mock it. It would be an act of self-censorship if I didn’t go after these targets. A lot of comedians think this stuff is ridiculous. They won’t go near it, because they know that if they do, they won’t get on the BBC, and they won’t get booked by certain clubs. They just leave it well alone."

Gaslighting the Meaning of Racism

"They gave the word to us: gaslighting. When they gaslight all the time and say, “The culture war is a right-wing myth.” Or, the chief practitioners of cancel culture saying that council culture doesn’t exist." When they say the opposite of what is the observable reality, I don’t know how to break through that, how to break through those arguments, because not only have they constructed a pseudo-reality in their own minds."
