Warning - this episode was recorded remotely and there are moments when George sounds like he's in space. We apologise for the poor sound quality in those moments but he's so worth listening to hopefully substance makes up for styleGeorge Monbiot is a journalist, author, and environmental and political activist. He writes a regular column for The Guardian and has written several books. In 2023 he went viral on Question Time having finally been asked back after a long hiatus. Jemma and Marina kick the episode off with that barnstorming clip when George let us know what he really thought about the Rwanda policy. Spoiler alert - he wasn't keen. The Trawl ladies are fascinated to learn about his time at Oxford university and why the culture wasn't for him. He was there at the same time as some of the most infamous members of the Bullingdon Club…. say no more. It goes without saying there's climate conversation, politics chat and clips with a man Marina and Jemma could listen to all day.

They can't beat the obscene wealth of petrostate oligarchs, so they've joined them in ransacking the country. Ash is joined by Sam Bright, author of Bullingdon Club […]

We travel to Dartmoor for our first episode of 2022, where we encounter the Hammer Studios version of “The Hound of the Baskervilles”. A film in which Peter Cushing's status as an OG cosplayer leads to some exceptional authenticity; we learn the best way to present a ceremonial dagger to a suspect; the Bullingdon Club dry a half-drowned man out over an open fire; and Christopher Lee gets a good slap. Along the way we discuss Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's own relationship with his most famous creation; the question of co-authorship with Bertram Fletcher Robinson; and the many folktales and myths that fuelled the original story. Watch (or re-watch) to avoid spoilers, and join us. APOLOGIES FOR ANY SOUND/SPEECH QUALITY ISSUES - THIS EPISODE WAS RECORDED REMOTELY, AT THE HEART OF THE GREAT GRIMPEN MIRE

In today's episode I sit down with Sophie Pender, the Founder and CEO of the 93% Club. Before training as a solicitor at Herbert Smith Freehills, Sophie grew up in a single parent household on a council estate in North London and balanced two jobs in McDonalds and John Lewis alongside her schoolwork. After becoming the first student in her school to achieve straight A*s at A level, Sophie left for the University of Bristol to study English. In her second year, Sophie founded The 93% Club, a society dedicated to improving the experience of state school students at university. Since then, The 93% Club has become a nationwide charity and is the largest network of state educated students in the UK.Sophie was recently named a finalist in the 'Rising Star' category of the UK Social Mobility Awards and has been profiled in the BBC, ITV, LBC, The Guardian and the Telegraph for her work in this space.In our conversation we discuss her challenging upbringing, which included her fathers battle with alcoholism and drug addiction, the class-based issues she experienced whilst at university and why she founded the 93% Club.This is a super inspirational episode with an unequivocal future leader so be sure to listen to this episode in full!***Please note that the views shared in this podcast by the speakers are personal and do not represent their respective employers.***
In this episode of Going Underground, we speak to WikiLeaks Editor-in-Chief Kristinn Hrafnsson. He discusses the leaks that showed some 50,000 people are potential targets of the Pegasus spyware that has been sold to governments around the world by NSO, an Israeli company, and the inescapable global surveillance apparatus that has now become privatized. He also discusses Julian Assange's US extradition case, slamming the ongoing detention of the WikiLeaks founder despite a key witness in the case admitting to lying. Next, we speak to Professor Richard Murphy, co-founder of the Tax Justice Network. He claims UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson's government is “rotten to the core,” having faced numerous accusations of corruption throughout the pandemic, and why Johnson's decision to lift nearly all coronavirus restrictions will prove to be a catastrophic mistake. He goes on to discuss why the Treasury Committee exonerated David Cameron for lobbying on behalf of Greensill Capital, and explains why he believes it was a strategic decision to protect the former prime minister. Finally, he talks about the controversial appointment of a member of the notorious Bullingdon Club to a key oversight position on the government's sleaze watchdog, and why the UK has become one of the world's most lucrative tax havens.
James Dionne, author of Fahrenheit 1984: A Concerned Citizens Manifesto, was my guest on today's show. I was put in touch with James after my episode on cyber torture was released, he's a rap artist and author from Canada who has been a victim of organised harassment. I wanted to speak to him about his book, the problems with the term conspiracy theory, the power of governments and intelligence agencies and their capacity to be corrupted.

If at any point you think we've gone into truly crazy territory, check out the links provided and see for yourself what we are discussing. One thing to clear up, whilst recording I mixed up the Bilderberg Group and Bohemian Grove, in case anyone is listening and is confused at the mistake.

Tom Sutcliffe and guests Rosie Boycott, Simon Jenkins and Maria Delgado discuss the cultural highlights of the week, including The Riot Club based on Laura Wade's controversial stage play Posh and which fictionalised the riotous behaviour of Oxford's notorious Bullingdon Club, which David Cameron, George Osborne and Boris Johnson have all been members of. Enda Walsh's new play Ballyturk at the National Theatre has been compared to Samuel Beckett's Waiting For Godot and stars Cillan Murphy, Mikel Murfi and Stephen Rea. Mr Mac and Me is the 8th novel from Esther Freud, a blend of fact and fiction it recounts the time spent by the architect Charles Rennie Mackintosh in a small fishing village in Suffolk through the eyes of a 12 year old boy. Constable, the Making of a Master, is a new exhibition at London's V&A, which presents his work for the first time alongside the Old Masters whose work he copied so fastidiously, and also features the two version of his most famous painting, The Haywain, side by side. And The Driver, a new three part series on BBC One, starring David Morrissey and written by Danny Brocklehurst is the story of an ordinary man who - because of family mystery, frustration with his job and his life - makes a terrible decision.
