On the Triggernometry YouTube channel at 9pm. I like the Triggernomtry fellas and they interview a lot of interesting and erudite people. Last one was Gad Saad and worth your time

The @Triggerpod interview with Harry The Owl is pretty good too. Love these 2 guys and their wit. Worth supporting them financially if you've a few bob to spare.

The comments under the video!! Grin

Top Triggering, @Triggerpod !! Star

I would love to see you interview Sarah Braasch :

www.youtube.com/channel/UCz4xV2R6mTVJhAu9OQzwp5g

"I am a PhD Candidate at Yale University in Philosophy (ABD), a rocket scientist, a NYS attorney, and a human and civil rights activist. I am currently working on a saving the world project, which is an analysis of how to undermine the oppression that is inherent to our social institutions.

If you are visiting my channel, you are probably aware that I was falsely accused of racism at Yale University. My life was subsequently destroyed by Yale, the press, and a global internet rage mob of #moraloutragewarriors.

This channel is my journey as I tell the truth about what happened and rebuild my life."

Filmmaker Chico Colvard would be another one right up your street:

Thanks for posting about this - looking forward to seeing it.

SunsetBeetch · 14/05/2020 17:12

Great suggestions, MoleSmokes

SunsetBeetch · 15/05/2020 08:34

Having now listened to it fridgepants that's not what he said at all.

To paraphrase, he said he loves sending articles about people like Karen White to "people he hates" (which to me sounded tongue in cheek) like Josie, Jon Ronson,etc.

You'll never guess what Stephanie Hayden is doing now, everyone (except of course you will!).

@SunsetBeetch Oh there's a surprise. Even though Glinner told truths readily available on google about SH. Also, the only thing he said about LR and DIVA was "Diva is a lesbian magazine for men". Pretty funny and also accurate. Hardly libellous or worth suing him over.

BringbackLang · 15/05/2020 08:52

@SunsetBeetch I'm shocked, shocked I tell you! Grin

Thinkingabout1t · 15/05/2020 09:16

I have great respect and admiration for Graham Linehan, and for anyone who has the courage to stand up to male supremacist thugs, which is what T”R”As are.

SunsetBeetch · 15/05/2020 09:44

Yes I genuinely laughed out loud at that, Jintyfer Grin

ChattyLion · 15/05/2020 10:32

I’ve been trying to watch a bit of the interview. Glinner seems to be thinking and challenging and contributing to a debate on a level way above these two, and over their heads.

I think I am about ten minutes in so far. Already the interviewers are coming across like starstruck, not particularly bright or politically aware unreconstructed teenage boys. I suppose that’s what you get when it’s not a trained broadcast journalist interview for a proper journalistic organisation, and fair enough, but it’s a bit disappointing to listen to.

Gems like responding ‘haha aren’t all lesbian magazines for men’ when Glinner had made a completely different joke about Diva Magazine’s politics... and also talking about how the ‘balls’ on tv commissioners and comedy producers have ‘shrunk’ Hmm ie asserting that they won’t commission anything but anodyne comedy these days, it comes across that they are getting misty eyes for their good old 90s ‘lad’ days. Hmm

SunsetBeetch · 15/05/2020 12:15

I wouldn't say that's a fair assessment of their characters, ChattyLion They are a bit jokey (they are comedians after all), but I wouldn't say they are particularly laddish. If you listen to more of their podcasts, they can be intelligent and insightful.

And it was a trained journalist on the BBC who talked over Graham, didn't seem to understand what he was talking about at all and focused most on a "nazi" comment made on twitter that was taken out of context.

ChattyLion · 15/05/2020 12:50

I will try to listen to the rest when I can. My impression is these two are coming from a free speech related position and haven’t given much thought to where Linehan has pointed to misogyny as a specific problem, but I’ll be happy to hear otherwise further on.

Yes I also posted on the thread about the Sarah Smith interview on Newsnight, saying that it was an appalling interview with Glinner and also a bit strange editorially, given Smith’s other Newsnight colleagues Emily Maitliss, Hannah Barnes and Deborah Cohen clearly have an informed take on this area.

MoleSmokes · 15/05/2020 13:40

ChattyLion - I would really recommend watching more Triggerpod interviews so that you can put this one in context. My impression is very different to yours. I do not interpret the interviewers' indulgence of Glinner's rambling style as due to them being "star struck".

The only one I have seen where they were a bit star-struck and annoyingly giggly was an otherwise excellent interview with Matthew Goodwin. That one covers completely different ground so I am not linking it here.

I will link some others that cover issues that are of current interest on FWR, in reverse chronological order, plus the interview with Count Dankula (covered in the interview with GL).

I have never bothered to check if they have covered anyone or anything to do with Gamergate but that is another huge controversy that GL was involved with and that Konstantin Kisin and Francis Foster are aware of.

However, I think that before diving into the Triggerpod interviews that this interview with Konstantin Kisin would be well worth checking out. It might not be your thing but I enjoyed it Smile

You can almost graph their increasing awaking to women's rights issues through those videos.

Interestingly, Count Dankula cites the Harry Miller / Fair Cop / Harry The Owl case in his interview but without any of them commenting on its significance other than as a Free Speech issue.

I hope you enjoy at least some of those. I haven't watched the India W interview myself as I suspect I would find it too triggering! Smile

SunsetBeetch · 15/05/2020 13:44

I think that's fair, ChattyLion

This is what happened to Konstantin, so you can see how free speech is important to them

BustedWench · 15/05/2020 13:49

So they've edited it now. Free speech is long gone

ThinEndoftheWedge · 15/05/2020 14:26

So they've edited it now.

In what way did they edit?

MoleSmokes · 15/05/2020 14:40

BustedWench - The original Triggernometry interview is still up but they have warned that it might "disappear" - not clear whether because they would have to take it down or because YouTube might take it down.

(You can't edit YouTube videos while they are up - only delete, edit and then re-post starting from scratch.)

Perhaps that's only common knowledge and say out loud-able down on the Farms, Busted. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Yes, seems it is subject to legal action if mentioned, so I will refrain from going in to detail as I'm already being sued!

MoleSmokes · 15/05/2020 17:26

Oh! I am out date with YouTube video editing - you can "trim" (delete) a clip from a video that is already uploaded! Ooops! Blush

MaMaLa321 · 15/05/2020 18:13

I find it a bit irritatingly laddish in tone (especially the guy who isn't Konstantin. Could his 'fnar fnar' laugh BE any more annoying)
BUT
Where else is providing in depth interviews with such an interesting range of guests? Giving them all the time they need to give their thoughts? Certainly not the BBC.
I especially enjoyed the one with Paul Embury, Posie Parker, and ? Curtis (the expert on elections, talking about the Brexit result.
So I can put up with the Fnar fnar and the laddishness.

ChattyLion · 15/05/2020 19:54

Thanks Mole and Sunset for all the links, all on my list to check out. I shouldn’t really post after only 10 minutes watching Grin but I didn’t have much time today. thanks for the context you’ve given. You’re right that more often than not the mainstream broadcasters are often dodging reality on this topic and that is really negligent of them.

nauticant · 15/05/2020 20:00

The reason why we it can come across as lacking depth and not sufficiently getting to grips with the issues is that we aren't the intended audience. We're the converted, we already have a lot of the requisite knowledge.

Even though some of the delivery isn't to my taste and I frowned at some of the comments, overall I don't mind. If what's going on gets a broader audience then so long as the content isn't nasty, I'm in favour.

Since the Triggernometry guys are strongly in favour of free speech, the legal threats should have the benefit of helping them realise for good that trans activists often use pretty unpleasant tactics in the pursuit of keeping things hidden.
