Streaming giant Netflix seems to have another gritty hit on their hands, and this one's darker than ever. 'Adolescence' follows the story of a young boy accused of stabbing a female schoolmate, and draws heavily on the continuing controversy of the online ‘manosphere'. The show paints a dark and violent picture of modern masculinity, seemingly pointing the finger of accusation at online influencers like Andrew Tate. So should youths be banned from using smartphones? Are caring and conscious parents the answer? Or is a return to firm traditional Christian gender roles the only way forward? To debate this, Piers Morgan speaks to host of ‘The Crucible' Andrew Wilson, comedian and radio host James Barr, host of ‘Tomi Lahren is Fearless' on Outkick Tomi Lahren and host of ‘The Determined Society' Shawn French.

Until the end of WWI, the Middle East as we know it didn't exist. No Israel, Lebanon, Syria, Jordan, or Iraq. Instead, there was the Ottoman Empire, whose dissolution using an arbitrary line on a map set the region on a course of upheaval that's still with us. Listen as historian James Barr speaks with EconTalk's Russ Roberts about the 1916 Sykes-Picot Agreement, and how, in the century that followed, the machinations of the French, the British, and the local residents created the modern Middle East and affected the lives of millions.

“Politics is personal” as the old saying goes, so no one should be surprised that the rightward geopolitical shift that Trump's re-election has brought to pass would affect other areas of American life. The US entertainment industry for example, is reeling from the new President's zero tolerance for woke. Blake Lively's attempt to ‘cancel' Justin Baldoni has backfired spectacularly and Selena Gomez's recent anti-deportation outing on Instagram has brought her nothing but accusations of performative ‘virtue-signalling'. Plus, trans actress Karla Sofía Gascón, star of Oscar-nominated Emilia Pérez is in hot water after some unsavoury tweets were unearthed... Piers Morgan speaks to his assembled culture vultures; Youtuber The Critical Drinker, radio host and comedian James Barr, Uncensored contributor Esther Krakue, influencer and YouTuber Shallon Lester and pop culture pundit from 'Popcorned Planet' Andy Signore for their expert takes.

So, Piers Mortgan brings rapper and podcast host Zuby, transgender activist and writer Eli Erlick, Uncensored contributor Esther Krakue and comedian and podcast host James Barr together for a timely review of this year's festivities.One thing that has been noticed by more than just a few is that in the US, Target have massively scaled back their pride merchandise and observance of the holiday after the conservative backlash, leading many to question their commitment to the queer community in the first place.

June is Pride Month, a time for acknowledging and celebrating the LGBTQ+ community across the world. It's surely a worthy cause, but Piers Morgan has a question to ask; Why do the LGBTQ+ community enjoy an entire month of events and attention, while other minority groups usually only get a day?To discuss, Piers brings collegiate athlete and author Riley Gaines, journalist Ernest Owens, LGBTQ+ comedian James Barr and columnist Esther Krakue together on Uncensored. James and Ernest furiously defend Pride month, and argue that people like Piers are actually a reason it's necessary. Riley comes at the discussion from a different angle, saying that deference to LGBTQ+ activism is leading to unfairness and a lack of opportunity in women's sports. Hosted on Acast.

While it's supposed to be a unifying celebration of music, the Eurovision Song Contest practically never manages to stay apolitical; and this year was no exception. An unprecedented level of disruption and protest was directed at the Israeli entry Eden Golan over the weekend, as global anger at Israel's actions in Gaza continues to grow. To discuss this year's contest, Piers brings comedian James Barr, Israeli writer and activist Hen Mazzig, Novara Media host Michael Walker and Drag Queen Crystal onto the show. The debate gets heated when Crystal calls Eden Golan ‘a propaganda tool for the Israeli government' and Hen claims no British person can call for the exclusion of Israel without becoming a hypocrite.YouTube: @PiersMorganUncensoredX: @PiersUncensoredTikTok: @piersmorganuncensoredInsta: @piersmorganuncensored Hosted on Acast.

As the Israeli assault on Gaza, immediately preceded by the Hamas-led massacre in Southern Israel, continues, we return to the history of this conflict. This is the second part of my extended interview with the historian James Barr, author of several books on the history of the Middle East including A Line in the Sand and Lords of the Desert, some of the best regarded guides to the region, particularly in the early years of the twentieth century. If you have not yet heard the preceding episode 18, where James starts this story, I recommend that you listen to that first.In this episode we start at the aftermath of World War II and the horrific events of the Holocaust, as Jews are trying to emigrate to what will become the State of Israel and the British colonial authorities are trying to stop them.You can follow James via his website https://www.historythatmatters.org/ as well as on Bluesky at https://bsky.app/profile/jamesbarr.bsky.socialI am on Twitter @snellarthur, Bluesky https://bsky.app/profile/snellarthur.bsky.social and arthursnell.substack.com If you've enjoyed this podcast why not subscribe, and give us a positive review.Also, don't forget to check out the Disorder Podcast https://www.goalhangerpodcasts.com/disorder Hosted on Acast.

The crisis in Israel - Palestine continues, currently unfolding with the Israeli attack on Gaza, immediately preceded by the Hamas-led massacre in Southern Israel. Unpicking the history and origins of these events remains a particularly difficult task, with history used and abused by people with points to prove on all sides. For that reason I was particularly happy to be able to conduct an extended interview with the historian James Barr, whose books on the history of the Middle East, including A Line in the Sand and Lords of the Desert are some of the best regarded guides to the region, particularly in the early years of the twentieth century.With James, in this first episode, we got to the bottom of famous moments in the Levant region in the early twentieth century, including the Sykes-Picot agreement and the Balfour Declaration, as well as the underlying colonial tensions, notably between Britain and France that drove much of these events. In a subsequent episode we will talk about Jewish militancy in the mid-twentieth century, the events of 1948 including the Nakba and the establishment of the State of Israel.
