Es wird extrem toxisch, da die Person, die emotional ablädt, oft nicht in der Lage ist, eine konstruktive Bemerkung oder einen Ratschlag zu geben. Der ganze Prozess lässt keinen Raum für eine Lösung.“Etymologie: Rant kommt aus dem Niederländischen ranten, „Unsinn reden“.Der erste dokumentierte Gebrauch von rant stammt aus dem Ende des sechzehnten Jahrhunderts, aus Shakespeares Die lustigen Weiber von Windsor.VILLE Urban dictionary: „Populäres Suffix, das häufig als Verstärker an ein beliebiges Wort angehängt wird, etwa: ‚hoe ville‘: eine Stadt voller Schlampen“PET PEEVE „Das Lieblingsärgernis“; ein kleines Ärgernis, das einen immer wieder aufs neue auf die Palme bringt.Danke fürs Zuhören und fürs Teilen!Cover Art: Cat AsenguaMusik: Helmut Stekl und Michael „Mitch“ Dörfler, www.tripbox.com#rant #ranting #rantsville #complaining #petpeeves #jammern #beschweren #negativ

A year on from his presidential election victory, what lessons can Britain learn from Trump II? Tim Shipman writes this week's cover piece from Washington D.C., considering where Keir Starmer can ‘go big' like President Trump. Both leaders face crunch elections next year, but who has momentum behind them? There is also the question of who will replace Peter Mandelson as ambassador to the United States. Can Starmer find a candidate who can get the Americans on side?Host Lara Prendergast is joined by The Spectator's political editor Tim Shipman, features editor Will Moore and commissioning editor Mary Wakefield.As well as the cover, they discuss Mary's piece urging us not to ‘look away' in the wake of the Huntingdon train stabbings; whether Zack Polanski can harness the energy seen in Zohran Mamdani's New York City mayoral election victory; and the growing fashion for polyamory.Plus: what books have the panel enjoyed reading this year? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

While COP30 gets underway in Brazil - Donald Trump is ripping up climate policy, blasting his allies for falling for what he calls the ‘world's greatest con job' and trying to get big business to follow his lead - and yet in New York, Zohran Mamdani - a left-wing populist unafraid to tout a green agenda - has just won the mayoral race and in the UK, the Green Party has surged under Zack Polanski.So is the direction of travel really a climate rollback - or is a new left preparing to claim power and reclaim the climate argument? With me, from the COP in Belém, is our Chief Correspondent Alex Thomson - and in London, the financial journalist and author Andrew Ross Sorkin, whose new book 1929 investigates the Wall Street crash.

The future's bright, the future's not orange. Perhaps. Trump may think he's the ultimate New Yorker but the Big Apple turned rotten on him, as Zohran Mamdani became the first mayor to attract a million votes since the 1960s, on an uplifting night for Democrats across the US. We take a deep dive. And, talking of rotten, we look at Rachel Reeves' attempts to prepare us all for a bruising Budget. Uh-oh. Plus - what to do about the far right radicalising the country online. Alex Andreou and Kenny Campbell are joined by two top-tier guests: former special advisor Salma Shah; and geopolitical mega-brain and newest member of the Quiet Riot family, Arthur Snell. ***SPONSOR US AT ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠KO-FI.COM/QUIETRIOTPOD⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠*** CALLS TO ACTION Listen to Arthur Snell's latest Behind The Lines, with Emily Thornberry and SUBSCRIBE! Find out more about Relief International's work in Sudan. “Trump has made Democratic voters feel extremely threatened and disempowered, so I think the big takeaway is that, if you do that, the moment voters have the power to punish you, they will take the opportunity to do so and in large numbers.” “The number of votes Cuomo got, would have won any NYC mayoral election since the mid-90s. And yet, against Mamdani, he was nearly 10% short. Turnout was extraordinary.” “There is more space for radical policies now, than there has been for the last several decades - whether you believe in left or right radicalism.” “What Mamdani shares with people like Polanski, but also Trump or Farage, is that he acknowledges a decline and seeks to reverse it. Whatever one thinks of their proposed solutions, tonally, that is very different from centrist politicians who, on the whole, seek to manage and tweak.” “There is a tension inside the Trump regime between the desires of an aging billionaire with pretty toxic behavioural traits and no impulse control, and the calculated Stephen Miller approach of trying to turn America into a corporate oligarchy.” “In all administrations, you have big figures. In this one, you have only Trump. This creates practical questions of comms management and how to run a news grid. Because he cannot do it all, all the time.” “Trump has moved from outright hostility to Ukraine to a sort of grumpy neutrality, where, as long as someone else is paying, he is happy for weapons to keep flowing.” “The original sin of this Labour manifesto was how the gov't boxed itself in on taxes. But the time to rip the plaster off, rather than peel it off slowly, was when they took over.”  “There are strategic missteps by the Tory leadership. Apparent weaknesses are being allowed to be exploited by people like Jenrick - or any backbencher looking for a bit of profile.” “We do have quite an inexperienced House of Commons, on all sides. And that is bad for scrutiny, it is bad for legislation, it is bad for debates.” “That gap, between an attack and proper information coming out, is their golden hour to sow discord. And it feels strategic and deliberate. Because after information is out, it might suit them or not. The confusion of the aftermath is all theirs.” “It's up to all of us to close the gap between the Prevent programme theory and its practical delivery and to be a lot more open in discussing the signs of someone about to fall into the radicalisation pit, so we can catch them before it's too late.” “We tend to obsess about the ideology of radicalisation, when more often the issue is the psychology of individuals feeling a profound lack of status.” • Buy something from ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠our bookshop here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠. • Email us at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠quietriotpod@gmail.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠. • Or visit our website ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.quietriotpod.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

This week, the boys head back to Roman Polanski-ville for the third time to discuss the pivotal 1965 film “Repulsion”. This “dangerous” film is Polanski's first English-language movie, shot in London during the peak of the French New Wave (Polanski is a Polish-French filmmaker). “Repulsion” offers indie-film groundedness, a gritty reality, noir-inspired neorealism, and an upheaval of social values of the time- sexual liberation, classism, irony, and iconoclasm. Also, we all had different levels of enjoyment, which led to one of our finest broad conversations!

Borussia Mönchengladbach hat nach dem Pokalerfolg auch in der Liga überzeugt - Trainer Eugen Polanski darf auf eine längere Zukunft hoffen. Auch der FC Schalke 04 schöpft nach zwei Niederlagen frischen Mut.

Borussia Mönchengladbach scheint die Trendwende geschafft zu haben: Nach dem Sieg im Pokal fertigten die Fohlen in der Bundesliga den FC St. Pauli ab. Was bedeutet das nun für Trainer Eugen Polanski? Darf er länger bleiben, worauf kommt es noch an? Außerdem: Wo steht der FC Schalke 04 nach zwei Niederlagen in Folge?

Mittlerweile reicht den Bayern auch die B-Elf für Bundesliga-Aufgaben und eine Bank, die teurer ist als die Bank von England. Wer soll das noch aufhalten? Leverkusen ist Lichtjahre entfernt. Gladbach gibt ein Lebenszeichen ab. Man kann also doch gewinnen unter Polanski. Augsburg hingegen verliert und verliert. Und mittlerweile verlieren sie auch die Fans. Im Duell der Aufsteiger siegen die Kölner und der HSV sieht doppelt gelb-rot. Außerdem ein Pokalmärchen aus Holland der besonderen Art.---------------Ihr habt Bock bekommen auf HOLY?

Matt Trump celebrates Halloween in true Spellbreakers fashion with a nostalgic, spooky, and thought-provoking journey through decades of magic, media, and meaning. Broadcasting in costume and spirit, Matt revisits the eerie Disney album Chilling, Thrilling Sounds of the Haunted House before diving into a cinematic exploration of witches in pop culture, from Polanski's haunting Macbeth to the charm of Bewitched and the romance of Bell, Book and Candle. Along the way, he muses on the evolution of Halloween itself, how it's shifted from childhood innocence and neighborhood trust to modern horror and memes, and what that says about America's cultural soul. Mixing humor, history, and philosophy, Matt examines how love redeems even the darkest tales and why every generation redefines “the witch” to reflect its own anxieties and desires. He closes the night with sponsors, poetry, and a heartfelt toast to the spooky season, reminding listeners that Halloween's magic lives on in nostalgia, faith, and a good cup of Loaded Gun Coffee.

Harriet responds to your messages about the Green Party after she went viral for her take on leader Zack Polanski.How does its surge in popularity link up with the result of the Caerphilly by-election? And is the party getting more support because it's not entirely focused on climate change? Plus, rumour has it that the Labour government is planning to raise income tax in next month's budget. It would mean breaking a manifesto promise. So how believable is it? Beth, Ruth and Harriet aren't convinced. They discuss how the government could get itself out of the black hole, and what would happen if it did break its promise on tax. Remember, you can also watch Beth Rigby, Harriet Harman and Ruth Davidson on YouTube.

Special guest Zoe Williams (and young Ruby), discuss the week's big stories with Alex and Kenny. What is it about Zack Polanski that seems to be taking the British left by storm? Has Corbyn and Sultana's 'Your Party' missed the boat? Will the Caerphilly by-election become a test case? AND how is it possible for AI solutions to be both at the fingertips of every minister, to answer all the UK's problems and simultaneously incapable of being regulated? PLUS - regular feature 'Wokey Dokey'. ***SPONSOR US AT ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠KO-FI.COM/QUIETRIOTPOD⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠*** “The fundamental problem is that progressives are drawn towards consensus and the far right is not - they like division. So any attempt to engage in discussion involves us moving further towards them, while they never move towards us. It's as much physics as it is ideology.” “The far right in the UK - and the US - are wishing civil war as a sort of cleansing act. I'm much more scared of that language of cleansing violence than I am of a few guys sticking fireworks up their butts on their way back from the football.” “The thing with Zack is that, even though I really notice his background as a storyteller, the result is more than storytelling. He can make you believe that things are possible. And in the current environment, that is massive.” “Hope is the last vestige of rascals in public life.” ***SPONSOR US AT ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠KO-FI.COM/QUIETRIOTPOD⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠*** Buy something from ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠our bookshop here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

Kann Borussia in diesem Jahr überhaupt noch ein Fußballspiel gewinnen? Viel Hoffnung gibt es nach dem 1:3 bei Union Berlin nicht. Und jetzt muss Borussia ausgerechnet gegen den FC Bayern München ran. Unsere Reporter diskutieren die Lage und die Situation von Trainer Eugen Polanski.

Dearest faithful EIC listeners, happy Friday, it's time for a round table discussion to dissect the biggest stories from the week.The UK's first ever celebrity Traitors is here, following beloved series across in the US. This cohort include huge figures like Stephen Fry, Claire Balding, Jonathan Ross, Charlotte Church, Alan Carr and Nick Mohammed to name a few. The show, which was recorded earlier this year at Ardross Castle in Scotland, features 19 celebrity contestants competing for a prize of £100,000 for a charity of their choosing. We talk about whether or the beloved show is executing this new famous format.Next up, sugar daddy finances. We recently read a piece for Bustle by Camille Soheet Pesha called Even The Sugar Daddies Are Feeling The Squeeze: As costs of living climb, high earners who once had money to burn on their sex lives are cutting back.” And in the piece she explores a troubling trend where the men who were once willing and able to splash the cash on sugar babies are now struggling to keep up. Sugar dating, for anyone not aware, is a type of transactional relationship where sugar daddies, typically older and wealthier, would offer gifts and money and a better quality of life to often younger, very beautiful women who offer companionship and intimacy. We discuss our thoughts on the piece.Lastly, last year we had Brat girl summer, but the season of green might not be over yet, are we potentially having Zack Polanski autumn? The Green party has reached over 110,000 members at the time of recording, for the first time. In England and Wales the party has had over a 55% rise in membership since Polanski took over last month. Polanski has had an unconventional path to politics, previously working as an actor, hypnotherapist and mental health counsellor. And yet is proving to be one of the most effective communicators we've seen in a very long time. One of Polanksi's slogans is ‘Let's make hope normal again', is this stratospheric new interest in the Green Party making us feel hopeful?We hope you enjoy listening, please do leave us a review on Apple Podcasts and a rating on Spotify or wherever you get podcasts, love, O,R,B xxRuchira's been loving: RoofmanBeth's been loving: Better ManOenone's been loving: Game Of ThronesThe Celebrity TraitorsEven The Sugar Daddies Are Feeling The SqueezeGreen Party over 100k membersThanks so much to Cue for editing this podcast.

It's just six weeks since Zack Polanski became leader of the Green party. He's not even an MP. And yet, in that short space of time, he's become something of a political rockstar for those on the left of British politics. His party is shooting up in the polls, he's attracted a devout and growing following on social media, and his modern style of communication is marking him out against what can at times feel like a rather stale political establishment in Westminster. In this extended interview, Lewis speaks to Polanski about his political journey and about his radical vision. Why does he support the break up of the United Kingdom? Does he recognise his stance on NATO sets him at odds with the public? And could Labour MPs be about to join him?Visit our new website for more analysis and interviews from the team: https://www.thenewsagents.co.uk/The News Agents is brought to you by HSBC UK - https://www.hsbc.co.uk/EXCLUSIVE NordVPN Deal -> https://nordvpn.com/thenewsagents Try it risk-free now with a 30-day money-back guarantee

Roman Polanski's Rosemary's Baby (1968) didn't just invent occult horror: it cursed Hollywood itself. A young couple moves into New York's Dakota building, only to find their new neighbors are part of an ancient Satanic conspiracy. What begins as domestic paranoia becomes a slow descent into psychological terror and a film that redefined horror forever. Richard Lewis, MonteCristo, and Thorin open the Four Play: Occult Horror Arc with the movie that birthed the genre, discussing Polanski's eerie direction, Mia Farrow's haunting performance, and how Rosemary's Baby set the stage for everything from Hereditary to Suspiria. Control Body Odor ANYWHERE with Mando and get 20% off + free shipping with promo code FOURPLAY at shopmando.com!

Borussia Mönchengladbach und Interimstrainer Eugen Polanski sind mit einem Mutmacher in die Länderspielpause gegangen. Die darf der Coach nutzen, um das Spiel gegen Union Berlin vorzubereiten. Und dann? Vieles ist bei den Fohlen aktuell noch im Unklaren, wir analysieren die Lage. Schalke ist als Zweiter in der 2. Liga in die Pause gegangen. Was macht Miron Muslic richtig - und was fehlt seiner Mannschaft noch für den großen Wurf?

“Forget it, Jake. It's Chinatown,” were, of course, the closing words from Polanski's 1974 movie, Chinatown. But the point of Jeff Chang's new biography of Bruce Lee, Water Mirror Echo, is that by 1973, when Lee died, Asian America was more than just Chinatown. Lee made Asian America, Chang argues, by giving Asian Americans dignity. Chang shows how Lee's journey from segregated Seattle and San Francisco neighborhoods to global stardom paralleled the rise of Asian American political consciousness. His films weren't just action movies but anti-colonial spectacles - kicking down “No Chinese and Dogs” signs, fighting for workers against bosses, defending communities against gentrification. After Bruce Lee, chinatown became more, so much more, than just chinatown.1. Lee was an “anchor baby” who embodied the immigrant struggle Born in San Francisco in 1940 during Chinese Exclusion, Lee lived in segregated neighborhoods and learned firsthand what it meant to be a racialized minority - making him a powerful symbol for those Trump-era immigration debates Chang references.2. His movies were explicitly political, not just action films From labor solidarity in The Big Boss to anti-colonialism in Fist of Fury to fighting gentrification in Way of the Dragon, Lee's films consistently championed underdogs against oppressors.3. Lee's rise paralleled the birth of “Asian American” identity Just as the term “Asian American” emerged in Berkeley in 1968, Lee was transforming from Hollywood sidekick to global hero, giving form to a new political consciousness that refused second-class status.4. Hollywood's racism forced Lee to find stardom in Asia After losing the Kung Fu role to David Carradine in yellowface, Lee had to return to Hong Kong to be seen as a leading man - becoming Asia's biggest star in six months.5. Hip-hop embraced Lee through shared spaces of segregation Inner-city theaters showed both Blaxploitation and kung fu films to the same audiences, creating an unexpected solidarity between Black and Asian communities that continues through artists like Wu-Tang Clan.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

Oh dear lefties… We just can't stop tearing each other apart, huh? One short month into the evolution of the new political party experiment undertaken by independent MPs Zarah Sultana and Jeremy Corbyn - and the whole thing has descended into acrimony. After a weekend of legal threats, “your” party is suddenly seeming to be a house of cards built amidst a hurricane.   Meanwhile, Nigel Farage has seized the moment to vomit out a new wave of inflammatory anti-migrant rhetoric. The need for a unified left movement has never been more urgent - and new Green Party leader Zack Polanski is ready to meet the moment.  Zack joins Nish and Coco in our (fully powered) studio - to talk about his vision for the future of the left, his plans to fight inequality and why he's not actually thrilled to see Zarah and Jez at each others throats. He also brings up his ever-so-slightly hypnotherapy boobjob and in revenge, helps us pip the Sun to the post on a saaaaaucy exclusive.  Later - Nish weighs in on the Jimmy Kimmel saga… It couldn't happen here, right?

PSG-Star Ousmane Dembélé gewinnt den Ballon d'Or 2025. Für viele nach der Triple-Saison mit PSG absolut verdient - einen stört es allerdings massiv: Mounir Nasraoui, Vater von Barca-Wunderkind Lamine Yamal, der die Wahl auf Platz zwei belegte. Grund genug für Papa, um zur Wutrede auszuholen. Außerdem: Bayern-Urgestein Karl-Heinz Rummenigge feiert seinen 70. Geburtstag mit jeder Menge Klartext zum Deutschen Rekordmeister, Florian Wirtz und die teilweise irrsinnigen Transfersummen.

Florian Wirtz hat in Liverpool unbestreitbar Anlaufprobleme. Was bremst den Nationalspieler, welchen Ausweg und welche Gefahren gibt es? Außerdem: Eugen Polanski ist seit vergangener Woche Trainer von Borussia Mönchengladbach. Wie war das erste Spiel unter seiner Leitung, vor welche Probleme wird er gestellt und hat der Ex-Profi das Zeug zur Dauerlösung?

Was HSV-Fans Hoffnung und was Sorgen machen sollte, warum der BVB vielleicht unfair bewertet wird und was Polanski mit Gladbach vorhat. Stefan Rommel und Louis Loeser analysieren den Spieltag.

Oliver Burke macht drei Tore beim Union-Sieg in Frankfurt. Eugen Polanski holt bei seinem Debüt einen Last-Minute-Punkt in Leverkusen und Nico Schlotterbeck macht den BVB nach seiner gelungenen Rückkehr am DAZN-Mikro zum Bayern-Jäger.

“Well, to tell ya the truth, I lied a little.” Alex and Nick break down one of the essential films of the New Hollywood movement, Roman Polanski's “Chinatown.” The guys discuss their favorite Jack Nicholson performances, Polanski's infamous career, Faye Dunaway's disturbing performance, John Huston as one of the best movie villains of all time, Robert Towne writing one of the best screenplays of all time, and much more.Part 6 of the WAYW New Hollywood Film Project.Follow @WAYW_Podcast on Twitter / Instagram / LetterboxdSend mailbag questions to whatareyouwatchingpodcast@gmail.com

 *NEW!* On this episodes annotated deep dive, The Cultists present Roman Polanski's The Ninth Gate (1999).  A slow and cozy burn of paranoia through warm-lit and dusty streets, The Ninth Gate tells that classic tale of a bored and bitter book dealing mercenary who happens upon an ancient esoteric puzzle concealed in the pages of the text — a one shot, all-consuming mystery that many a mad man has tried to solve for centuries — but that Johnny Depp's Robert/Dean/Lucas Corso might happen to solve instead through sheer divine apathy. (Albeit with a heavy green-eyed stalker assist). Curiously based on only half of Arturo Pérez-Reverte's novel, The Dumas Club, (and on the B plot of the novel at that), Polanski's adaptation transforms Reverte's postmodern parable about the dangers of of looking too closely at a text, into a modernist love letter to the practice of… looking too closely at a text.  Topics Include: Comparisons to The Dumas Club and the details from the novel that help shape the more esoteric parts of the film; the book market value of all those old tomes; the abstract tradition of Grimoires; the occult golden age of Prague; fallen angels, The Grigori , and other lesser diablos; the paradox of making a modernist film out of a postmodern source, and a (somewhat brief) history of the devil, or how satan(s) became Satan. Episode Safeword: Salvation

We were joined in studio today by newly ordained leader of the Green Party Zack Polanski to react to the latest scandals pummelling Keir Starmer, as Peter Mandelson's relationship with pedophile Jeffrey Epstein gains speed. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Net toen Keir Starmer dacht dat hij met een nieuwe intentieverklaring -wij zijn vergeten de hoeveelste dit was- de boel kon herpakken, zag de Britse premier vorige week een van zijn ministeriele kopstukken aftreden vanwege een schandaal. Een crisis die Starmer probeerde af te wenden met haastige kabinetswisselingen en nieuwe benoemingen. Maar de vraag is of deze nieuwe misère het al zeer gehavende imago van Labour niet nog meer gezichtsverlies oplevert. We blijven in de politiek, maar maken een uitstapje naar links: De nieuwe leider Zack Polanski van The Green Party heeft de pittige uitdaging om de populariteit van Farage en zijn Reform partij in te dammen. Hij won de interne verkiezingen om het leiderschap met glans en heeft een ding direct duidelijk gemaakt aan de regerende Labour Partij: "Wij zijn hier om jullie te vervangen". Ook in deze aflevering Hoe brei je een passend einde aan een van de meest iconische televisie- en filmseries uit de Britse geschiedenis? Met een slotfilm die morgen uitkomt, waarin met een groot, meeslepend en dramatisch schandaal valt het doek voor het immens populaire Downton Abbey. Over Van Bekhovens Britten In van Bekhovens Britten praten Lia van Bekhoven en Connor Clerx elke week over de grootste nieuwsonderwerpen en de belangrijkste ontwikkelingen in het Verenigd Koninkrijk. Van Brexit naar binnenlandse politiek, van de Royals tot de tabloids. Waarom fascineert het VK Nederlanders meer dan zo veel andere Europese landen? Welke rol speelt het vooralsnog Verenigd Koninkrijk in Europa, nu het woord Brexit uit het Britse leven lijkt verbannen, maar de gevolgen van de beslissing om uit de EU te stappen iedere dag duidelijker worden? De Britse monarchie, en daarmee de staat, staat voor grote veranderingen na de dood van Queen Elisabeth en de kroning van haar zoon Charles. De populariteit van het Koningshuis staat op een dieptepunt. Hoe verandert de Britse monarchie onder koning Charles, en welke gevolgen heeft dat voor de Gemenebest? In Van Bekhovens Britten analyseren Lia en Connor een Koninkrijk met tanende welvaart, invloed en macht. De Conservatieve Partij leverde veertien jaar op rij de premier, maar nu heeft Labour onder Keir Starmer de teugels in handen. Hoe ziet het VK er onder Keir Starmer uit? En hoe gaan de ‘gewone’ Britten, voor zover die bestaan, daar mee om? Al deze vragen en meer komen aan bod in Van Bekhovens Britten. Een kritische blik op het Verenigd Koninkrijk, waar het een race tussen Noord-Ierland en Schotland lijkt te worden wie zich het eerst af kan scheiden van het VK. Hoe lang blijft het Koninkrijk verenigd? Na ruim 45 jaar onder de Britten heeft Lia van Bekhoven een unieke kijk op het Verenigd Koninkrijk. Als inwoner, maar zeker geen anglofiel, heeft ze een scherpe blik op het nieuws, de politiek, de monarchie en het dagelijkse leven aan de overkant van de Noordzee.

The Greens have a new leader. Listeners want to know what's in store for the left now.Tom McTague is joined by Andrew Marr, Rachel Cunliffe and Megan Kenyon to answer listener questions on:the future of the Green Party under Zack PolanskiJeremy Corbyn and Your Party's position on trans rightswhether a pro-immigration left party could win working class votesif the Lib Dems have any "serious" policiesLISTEN AD-FREE:

Zack Polanski scored a resounding victory in The Green Party leadership election on a platform promising bold communication and "eco-populism". Polanski has had an unorthodox path into politics, previously working as an actor, hypnotherapist and mental health counsellor. But he's been dogged by a 2013 article in The Sun involving a reporter who claimed he helped her try to boost her bust size through the power of thought.Born in 1982, Polanski is gay and Jewish, and changed his name at 18 to embrace the identity erased by his family's anglicised surname. His first foray into politics was joining The Liberal Democrats, and he stood unsuccessfully for Camden Council and The London Assembly. He joined the Greens in 2017, and was elected to City Hall in 2021, becoming the party's deputy leader the following year.In his pitch for the leadership, he linked the climate crisis to inequality and called for radical action to fix it. Now leader of The Green Party, Polanski has vowed to "take the fight to Labour", telling The Labour Party,"We are here to replace you."Stephen Smith talks to friends and colleagues tracing Polanski's journey from actor to politician.

When it originally was released, it couldn't find an American distributor (and likewise was shunned by streaming services), a consequence of the MeToo moment meeting Polanski's criminal past—in 1978 he fled to Europe after being indicted for the rape of a 13 year-old girl in the United States. Polanski's past is particularly relevant for his film about the falsely accused Jewish officer in the French military, to whom, in publicity materials circulated when An Officer and a Spy came out in Europe in 2019, the director explicitly compared himself.Of course, we couldn't possibly have had on any other guest than John Ganz to help us understand the politics of the Dreyfus affair, both in 1895 and 2025, and what to make of Polanski's cinematic rendering of it. Topics include: Polanski's life and crimes; Hannah Arendt's treatment of the Dreyfus affair in The Origins of Totalitarianism; anti-semitism in 19th and early 20th century France; the way Polanski largely ignores the political convulsions caused by the Dreyfus affair, instead handling it more as a crime procedural, and why he might have done so; and more.Sources:John Ganz, "Reading, Watching," Unpopular Front, Aug 10, 2025— "Gramscians vs Sorelians," Unpopular Front, Jan 23, 2021— "The Third Republic and Today," Unpopular Front, Jan 27, 2021— "The Century of Rubbish," Unpopular Front, Feb 2, 2021— "From Republic to Reaction," Unpopular Front, Feb 4, 2021David Bell, "An Officer and a Spy," H-France, March 2021Hannah Arendt, The Origins of Totalitarianism (1951)

Phil and Emily continue their mini series on Oscar-winning Best Director follow-ups from the 2000s with Oliver Twist (2005), Roman Polanski's adaptation of Charles Dickens' classic. They're joined by writer and producer Bryan Cogman, who may be one of the few people to have actually seen the film in theaters.The conversation dives into Polanski's unexpected choice to follow The Pianist with this family-oriented Dickens adaptation, why it feels strangely muted compared to both the director's darker films and other Dickens adaptations, and how Ben Kingsley's nuanced turn as Fagin stands out amidst an otherwise flat production. Together, they unpack Dickens' enduring influence, the many Oliver Twist adaptations across history, and how this version fits into Polanski's complicated legacy and the cinematic landscape of 2005.If you want more deep-dive discussions, exclusive mini series, and bonus content, join our Patreon at patreon.com/PodcastLikeIts.

Zack Polanski, the self-confessed eco-populist, won the leadership of the Green Party in a landslide this week. So Westminster Insider Host Sascha O'Sullivan finds out why the Green Party have often struggled to be taken seriously in SW1. Sascha speaks to the man himself – Polanski – who tells her he is a vegan, who doesn't drive and wants to tell "similar stories as Nigel Farage" but his will be "the truth". She speaks to Jonathon Porritt, a Green Party veteran and former chair, who says he isn't "completely comfortable with eco-populism". And Natalie Bennett, Green Party peer and former leader, tells Sascha the party will have to "stir the hornet's nest" to start to get their message across. Jürgen Klockner, senior policy reporter for POLITICO Europe, based in Berlin, takes Sascha inside the troubles of the Green Party in Germany and issues a warning to their compatriots back in the UK. "They would promise a Mercedes but turn up with an empty wallet", he says. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Alex Forsyth presents political debate from Kimpton Memorial Hall, Hertfordshire.

Zack Polanski is the fresh face of the Green Party. He already sits on the London Assembly – the capital's elected body that scrutinises the activities of the Mayor. But he's got his eyes set on the Commons – with ambitions to join the four Green MPs already there.Polanski wants to offer a different approach to politics with policies that include a wealth tax on billionaires and renationalising water companies. And to be a threat to both Labour and Reform UK.To find out more about Polanski's ambitions, Niall Paterson is joined by Caroline Russell, Green leader of the London Assembly who has worked alongside him and backed his campaign, plus George Monaghan, commissioning editor at the New Statesman. Producer: Soila Apparicio 

Zack Polanski has been elected as the new leader of the Green Party of England and Wales. Many believe the result will lead to a further realignment on the left of British politics. Also: long-term borrowing costs rise, putting pressure on Rachel Reeves ahead of the Budget. And politicians criticise the arrest of the Father Ted writer, Graham Linehan, over social media posts about trans rights.

The Green Party in England and Wales has a new leader and by an overwhelming majority members picked the candidate from the radical left-wing of the party - Zack Polanski. His campaign focussed on poverty and Palestine rather than plants or the planet. He's a former actor, a member of the London Assembly, though not actually a member of parliament. So, is he now the voice of progressive populism that can take on Nigel Farage and Jeremy Corbyn?

Is the convicted sex criminal Roman Polanski worth defending? Particularly in the context of “An Officer and a Spy”, his vaguely autobiographical 2019 movie about the Dreyfus case, the first Polanski film in a decade to be shown in the United States. Writing in Liberties Quarterly, Charles Taylor answers yes, intelligently making the case that we should concentrate on evaluating Polanski's art rather than his crimes. But I wonder about the wisdom of Polanski making a film about, of all things, the Dreyfus Affair - the celebrated 19th century French case of the persecution of an innocent Jewish military officer. Taylor's Liberties piece is entitled “Polanski's Nation of Pain” in reference to the manifold tragedies of the filmmaker's life. But there's also the unimaginable pain Roman Polanski has inflicted on any number of innocent women and girls. No, I don't think I'll be paying to see “An Officer and a Spy”. Not even if it's a good movie. 1. The Separation Dilemma Can we truly separate art from artist? Taylor argues yes - judging work solely on artistic merit regardless of the creator's character. But this becomes harder when the artist may be using their platform to craft narratives about innocence and persecution.2. Subject Matter Matters Polanski's choice to make a film about the Dreyfus Affair - a famous case of false accusation and the persecution of an innocent man - feels particularly tone-deaf given his own history of victimizing others. The "what" an artist chooses to explore can't be divorced from the "who" is exploring it.3. Cultural Gatekeeping vs. Access There's tension between those who believe controversial artists' work should still be available to audiences (let people decide for themselves) and those who argue that some crimes should disqualify someone from cultural participation and profit.4. The Victim's Paradox Even Samantha Geimer, Polanski's victim, has spoken against his continued prosecution - yet this doesn't resolve the broader question of accountability. Individual forgiveness doesn't necessarily translate to cultural rehabilitation.5. Economic Ethics Beyond just artistic judgment lies the question of financial support. You can acknowledge artistic skill while refusing to economically reward it - choosing not to pay for tickets becomes a form of moral statement separate from aesthetic evaluation.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.
