That's interesting about James O'Brien.

I listened on Catch Up. Excellent show. I get the impression that Ian Collins is quite new to the whole debate but he has really done his homework.

I left a message with the station praising the show and suggesting a couple of future topics he might want to cover (women in sports; skewing of crime stats). Of course there's loads more topics!

I contacted Talk Radio here: talkradio.co.uk/contact

@ItsAllGoingToBeFine

You can watch on YouTube (and rewind to the start here)

Starts at about 1346 (by the clock in the programme screen)

That was brilliant, cheers for sharing. I love Ian Collins, he's always been a voice of reason (really missed him when he left LBC) but this show was particularly good. He was on point, it was well researched and how interesting (but nor surprising) that they couldn't for the life of them get any actual "JK Haters" to come on the show. They knew he'd rip their shallow reasoning to shreds, in the most classy way. Their cowardly "no debate" position will hopefully finally be their downfall .

One of the women interviewed kept talking about Griffs - I don't know what that means - it made what she said difficult to follow initially as I didn't know if griff means pro or anti? Can anyone enlighten me?

Ive just come on here after spending too long on twitter and ending up feeling so frustrated with the whole TRA pile on. Some moron thought it was a good idea to post explicit photos of him having sex onto the Iklebog thread after a parent asked for JKR to say hi to her child!
I'm going to spend some time in peace and quite this afternoon listening to this show. I hope it lifts my mood!

Bluemooooon That caller was talking about "grift".

'So he is reaching for a middle ground. He admits 'I dont know''

Only after being truly vile, bullying and nasty to GC women on more than one occasion on his show (James o'Brien). Hes also mused about this issue on his show, saying he 'doesn't know' which side hes on but he suspects hes probably more empathetic to the transwomen. He doesn't have a clue, and has the nerve to call himself a feminist Hmm

That is just awful. I can't understand how this behaviour is not being reported in the media. Instead JKR is reported as having made controversial comments, even though the majority of people can't see anything wrong with what she said. But appalling behaviour like this is ignored. It's not a good look for the trans activists.

Grift. A grifter is slang for conman (or conwoman).

Grifting is conning/swindling.

Bluemooooon - a grift is a con / confidence trick.
