Nick Dixon and Toby Young Talk About Whether They’d Fight for Their Country, Whether Trump Should Really Have to Pay $83m to E.J. Carrol and if it’s Possible to Find Love Across the Political Divide

by Will Jones
30 January 2024 9:56 PM

Welcome to the Weekly Sceptic, episode 73!

This week:

  • As the world creeps ever closer to all-out war, Nick and Toby discuss whether they’d fight for their country
  • Laurence Fox loses his lawsuit, but why is it libellous to call someone a paedo but not a racist?
  • After distancing herself from the plot to replace Rishi Sunak, Kemi Badenoch turns out to be in a Tory WhatsApp group called ‘Evil Plotters’
  • What accounts for the ideological gender divide and is it possible to have a relationship with a political opponent?
  • The UN Secretary-General constantly warns us about the ‘global threat’ posed by online ‘hate speech’, but isn’t the fact that the UN employs actual terrorists a bigger threat?
  • Is ‘Stand Off at Eagle Pass’ a genuine news story or a long-forgotten 1940s Western?
  • Should Trump really have to pay $83.3 million to E.J. Carrol?
  • Plus Peak Woke and, for premium subscribers only, Review the Reviews
