honestly, ferrari is a clever bloke but he (or I) can’t honestly believe the crap he a) says or b) callers he fails spectacularly to challenge. Alot of them seem open goal.

JOB mystery hour at 11 is still the finest hour on radio, perhaps of all time, but at the same time each week.

      I feel like it’s a performance. I suppose being a public broadcaster it’s all a show but that suspicion is always there. I passed an Insulate Britain roadblock a while back just as he was yelling at someone trying to point out it’s a very good idea to fix our housing stock after decades of neglecting basic repair work. Literally yelling, shouting.

        The big problem are landlords. It’s the tenants who pay the heating bills, so why would they want to fork out money for insulation? It doesn’t save them any money at all.

        I’m sure a lot of this is coming from them. I’m sure they all get together at monthly meetings to discuss how they’re going to oppress democracy in thir never ending pursuit of small profits.
