FFS … Unionism - Afrikaaners both have their roots stretching back to the 17th century - Trump ‘voters’ are a flash in the pan and a melting pot of differing backgrounds/reasons - and can’t exactly be defined as a group. Utter snowflake garbage to draw a parallel …
He’s consistently well informed, has interesting guests and asks very good questions on his political podcasts. This leads to them being very stimulating listening.
I’ll take my own opinion on this over the opinions of people who haven’t even listened to them, thanks.
Tbf I haven’t listened to his political podcasts, I can only go on his Tweets which can be a bit hit or miss on current affairs. I’ll take your word for it, I’d probably like it, I enjoy most of his ramblings on football despite not following it that deeply.
Although, thinking about it I have always loved Keith Olbermann talking about sports but can’t stand the guy talking about politics. I will give it a listen though.
Yer man Alex Massie from The Spectator was one of his guests on his show after the UK election so he gets voices coming from different angles.
The politics ones are every couple of weeks at most so the topics don’t go stale or repetitive in the way that often happens on the Irish Times’ Inside Politics podcast, which can also be pretty good, to be fair.
I see that the second captains lads have 10k paid subscribers. Thats fair going. What is it 5 quid a month? 600k a year. Fuck all overheads really. Plus advertising, corporate gigs etc. Coining it
My brother gave me a sub as a xmas present. I have limited interest in soccer so ignore all those ones. Its generally ok though but I wouldnt pay for it myself
Fools and their money and all that. Paying to listen to lads talk shite about sport - fair play to them if people are willing to pay for such a service.
