Sunday School: There Will Be Blood Pressure
Let joy be unconfined! Naomi is back and she joins Alex as they poke the ashes of an epic MAGA and Manosphere meltdown, following Donald Trump's Midterm humiliation, Russell Brand's criminal conviction, and Elon Musk's market correction. Could it be that the Manospasm we have been witnessing is beginning to dissipate? ***SPONSOR US AT KO-FI.COM/QUIETRIOTPOD*** • Opening clip from Jimmy Kimmel's epic monologue • Latest episode of How Do You Solve A Problem Like Everything is here • We're on Instagram! • We have put together a BLUESKY STARTER PACK with all our regular contributors and some quality sources - join us there! • Email us at quietriotpod@gmail.com • Or visit our website www.quietriotpod.com Brought to you by Naomi Smith, Alex Andreou and Kenny Campbell.

We're not in Kansas any more
Flipping Nora. We are still surfing the wave of incredulity (and, let's face it, unbridled joy) after those US midterm results. We are also running on fumes, because we all stayed up so we could bring you not just the drama, but some actual insight into what has been happening as the USA gave Republicans and Trump an absolute pasting. Alex and Kenny are joined by fellow night-owl Sam Freedman – he of the fabulous Comment Is Freed Substack – to look at the highlights, lowlights and moments of both high drama and high humour. There is a LOT to get through. There may be a few choice words as well, so cover the cocker spaniel's ears if it's a sensitive soul. ***SPONSOR US AT KO-FI.COM/QUIETRIOTPOD*** • Subscribe to Sam's brilliant Substack, Comment Is Freed • We're on Instagram! • We have put together a BLUESKY STARTER PACK with all our regular contributors and some quality sources - join us there! • Email us at quietriotpod@gmail.com • Or visit our website www.quietriotpod.com Brought to you by Naomi Smith, Alex Andreou and Kenny Campbell.

Sunday School: The Next Generation
Today we look to the young voters of Serbia and Brazil, who have helped achieve quite remarkable political results, and also back to the late Patrick Stewart, whose politics were as admirable and authentic as his acting. Alex and Kenny also turn their gaze to the BBC News team and, in particular, claims that the Beeb is platforming Reform UK in a way that allows Farage to set the agenda rather than responding to it. Plus there some Celebrity Traitors to get stuck into ... join us in the Tower for a particularly packed Sunday School! ***SPONSOR US AT KO-FI.COM/QUIETRIOTPOD*** • Arthur Snell's excellent Behind The Lines primer on India's Cockroach Revolution • We're on Instagram! • We have put together a BLUESKY STARTER PACK with all our regular contributors and some quality sources - join us there! • Email us at quietriotpod@gmail.com • Or visit our website www.quietriotpod.com • Cover image licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 Unported licence Brought to you by Naomi Smith, Alex Andreou and Kenny Campbell.

No rabbits were harmed in the making of this Budget
And so to John Healey's Budget which went... pretty well as predicted. Horses were not scared, rabbits were not pulled from hats and Healey was, well, pretty dogged. Alex and Kenny are joined by economist extraordinaire Vicky Pryce to look at the headlines but also to dive beneath the surface of a Budget that was big on the volume of announcements if not surprise. PLUS ... that Liz Truss book. HOW much of a stinker is it? As we're doing rabbits, we may as well do lettuces too. ***SPONSOR US AT KO-FI.COM/QUIETRIOTPOD*** • Write to your MP with some positive reinforcement! • The latest How Do You Solve A Problem Like Everything? is out! • We're on Instagram! • We have put together a BLUESKY STARTER PACK with all our regular contributors and some quality sources - join us there! • Email us at quietriotpod@gmail.com • Or visit our website www.quietriotpod.com • Cover image based on a photo by Tim Mossholder on Unsplash Brought to you by Naomi Smith, Alex Andreou and Kenny Campbell.

B-Side: Exposing the Covid care home scandal
'An afterthought' – that is the damning description of how Government treated care homes during the pandemic, according to a coruscating report from the independent Covid 19 Inquiry. Alex and Kenny lift the bonnet on the report's disturbing findings with Quiet Riot favourite Christina Pagel, UCL Professor of Operational Research and co-founding member of Independent Sage. From Government incompetence to the ordeal faced by care home workers, via the countless individual tragedies as Covid turned care homes into death traps, the report makes for distressing but essential reading. But what has changed, and what should change? ***SPONSOR US AT KO-FI.COM/QUIETRIOTPOD*** • The first round of consultation for The Big Conversation on Care has ended, but watch out for the next phase, when you will have another opportunity to have your say • Track Trump's authoritarian actions with Christina's Trump Action Tracker • The latest How Do You Solve A Problem Like Everything? is out! • We're on Instagram! • We have put together a BLUESKY STARTER PACK with all our regular contributors and some quality sources - join us there! • Email us at quietriotpod@gmail.com • Or visit our website www.quietriotpod.com • Cover image based on a photo by Tim Mossholder on Unsplash Brought to you by Naomi Smith, Alex Andreou and Kenny Campbell.

Sunday School: Robot Reboot – good machine v bad machine
It's all kicking off on planet AI again this week – Britain is about to spend £100m on an AI biosecurity lab, yet more jobs are being replaced by AI and some investors are making money by betting the whole AI investment circus is going to come crashing down. Alex and Kenny ask What and Why, and take a look at the disturbing flood of AI political attack ads that risk skewing public debate with, well, machine-generated lies. Talking of things that threaten civilization, why was there such a media fuss about Andy Burnham's 'be prepared' message this week? How can 'Don't go hungry if the power fails' be construed as a messaging failure? PLUS With Burnham on Gogglebox, we look at which other shows politicians could be parachuted into. Warning: topic may not be taken seriously. ***SPONSOR US AT KO-FI.COM/QUIETRIOTPOD*** • Want another fascinating listen?

It's a mad, mad, mad, mad world
Chaos. As Trump and Putin keep grabbing stuff for themselves, and Trump fantasises about meeting with Putin and Xi, are we already in a 'everyone-and-everything' war? Alex and Kenny are joined by Quiet Riot's tame geopolitics expert, Arthur Snell, to ponder all that – and ask if we even know what victory would look like in the current global political climate. Plus, a particularly mad God! Less America! which struck a sweet spot with Alex and fellow Greeks. ***SPONSOR US AT KO-FI.COM/QUIETRIOTPOD*** • Arthur's latest Behind The Lines on the Middle East • Arthur's piece in The Nerve: Trump, Putin and now Xi – Europeans are at the mercy of an authoritarian axis • Watch out for the latest How Do You Solve A Problem Like Everything? on Saturday! • America's remarkable list of non-ambassadors • We're on Instagram! • We have put together a BLUESKY STARTER PACK with all our regular contributors and some quality sources - join us there! • Email us at quietriotpod@gmail.com • Or visit our website www.quietriotpod.com Brought to you by Naomi Smith, Alex Andreou and Kenny Campbell.
