🎧 The one where @nndroid.bsky.social tries not to spoil a true-life story in this look at sycamore gap devastation. “…bit ironic that magazine and newspaper writers should be complaining about dead trees. Between us, we've killed loads of them.” 🌳 #NonFictionBooks 💡📚💙 #BookSky 🦋 #Podcasts 📻

🪾NEW DEEP DIVE 🪾 The men who cut down the Sycamore Gap tree were senseless morons… or were they? 🪾 Andrew Hankinson, author fascinating new book FELLED, takes @nndroid.bsky.social into the real story behind the outrage. 🪾 Listen linktr.ee/bunker_pod

I absolutely loved ‘You Could Do Something Amazing with Your Life (You Are Raoul Moat)’ and Andrew Hankinson’s new book is equally fascinating.

This was fascinating, and something I'd not thought about before: chronicling the way that totalitarianism seeped into every corner of people's existence, colonising their dreams as well as their waking lives.

Andrew Harrison@nndroid.bsky.social

This is one of the most chilling Bunkers I’ve done – the true story of how a Jewish journalist catalogued the dreams of ordinary Germans as Hitler took power, and what they meant. Listen – linktr.ee/bunker_pod

Brilliant interview with someone who has experienced the reality of Putinism and come home to tell the tale.

Few people jailed in Russia on charges of spying for the CIA live to tell the tale. Evan Gershkovich is one of them. The US reporter tells @dorianlynskey.bsky.social about his 491 days as Putin’s prisoner and the psychological toll of his incarceration. 🎧 Listen: linktr.ee/bunker_pod

The Times profiles a bunch of narcissistic cranks with truly dangerous anti-science, anti-medicine ideas as if it’s all good lifestyle fun… and then turns off comments so its readers can’t express their opinion.

Ros and me with the stories of the week ahead.

☀️ START YOUR WEEK ☀️ Andy Burnham confirms Russia meddled in the Brexit referendum, Trump strikes a sordid diesel deal with Putin weeks before the midterms and the Houthis cause chaos in Saudi Arabia. @rostaylor.bsky.social and @nndroid.bsky.social look at the week ahead 🎧 linktr.ee/bunker_pod

Steve and I look at what Labour, the Greens and yes all right then the Tories can learn from Holborn & St Pancras.

🗳️ BONUS HOLBORNCAST 🗳️ Labour holds Starmer’s old seat… but is Polanski in trouble? 🗳️ @steverichards.bsky.social of Rock & Roll Politics reads the runes with @nndroid.bsky.social 🗳️ Listen linktr.ee/ohgodwhatnow...

Your lunchtime listen…

Christa Pike is "walking and talking" after surviving two botched executions, the Kremlin insists Russia hasn’t unleashed the plague on the world and party conference season is over – hurrah! @nndroid.bsky.social and @seththevoz.bsky.social recap the BIG stories of the week ➡️ linktr.ee/bunker_pod

Featuring an appreciation of the man Private Eye used to call “Lord Archole”.

🇪🇺 OUT EARLY 🇪🇺 There may well be an emergency pod tomorrow… 🇪🇺 Has Burnham finally broken the Brexit deadlock? Plus an “appreciation” of Jeffrey Archer. 🇪🇺 With @seththevoz.bsky.social @jonnelledge.bsky.social @jasonhazeley.bsky.social & guest @sebastiansalek.com 🇪🇺 Listen linktr.ee/ohgodwhatnow...

Imagine being the world’s second richest man and yet still being such a craven fucking bootlicker.

The chef's kiss moment was following this with a complaint that people in politics are too tribal.

Andrew Harrison@nndroid.bsky.social

Badenoch on #R4Today claiming the Tories’ problems started with the Coalition when they “had to make compromises” and were perceived as “not proper Conservatives”. Cameron/Osbourne absolutely steamrollered the Lib Dems, got all they wanted, and left Clegg &c. as patsies. What is she on?

Andrew Harrison reposted

Yep, when I catch up with other former Lib Dem Spads we just sit around cackling about how we destroyed the Tories by making them compromise on key issues. ‘Wow we totally screwed their electoral chances for a decade’ we say as we laugh into our drinks.
