  • Summary

  • Welcome to our failed attempt at a TOPICAL EPISODE.

    The aim was a discussion of unfolding events in the Middle East, now too long ago to be relevant (things move quickly). The actual result was twenty minutes of reminiscing about life among the Houthis in Yemen, followed by a MANIFESTO on why the UK should not have an army or air force and instead focus all its excess resources on a reinvigorated navy that will rule the seas with GREAT SEVERITY. To the extent that one suspects that the entire concept of a topical episode was a trojan horse to introduce more Royal Navy propaganda into our lives.

    “You can make the French ambassador feel really small, and nobody can put a price on that.”
