Historian Bijan Omrani joins The Winston Marshall Show for a profound conversation on Christianity, Western decline, and the spiritual crisis reshaping our civilisation.

Bijan lays out how the erosion of faith has hollowed out Western identity—from the collapse of moral conviction to the rise of relativism and nihilism. He argues that Christianity is not just a personal belief system, but the civilisational glue that once underpinned law, liberty, and culture.

They explore the dangers of spiritual amnesia, the seductive void left by postmodernism, and why attempts to rebuild the West without God are doomed to fail.

All this—the atrophy of faith, the crisis of meaning, the war on tradition, and the quiet revolution needed to restore the soul of the West…

Renowned Israeli historian Benny Morris joins The Winston Marshall Show for a piercing and provocative conversation on the origins of the historic conflict between Israel and Iran — and why the West still doesn’t understand it.

Morris dismantles the popular narrative that Zionism was a colonial project, explaining how Jewish statehood was born out of historical necessity, persecution, and repeated rejection by Arab leaders. He charts the trajectory from 1948 to October 7th, tracing a consistent refusal to accept Israel’s existence.

They explore the role of religion in the conflict, the enduring power of jihadist ideology, and the failure of peace processes built on Western illusions.

All this — Middle East myths, Hamas, U.S. naivety, and why history keeps repeating itself in the Holy Land…

Writer, broadcaster and former politician, Sir Trevor Phillips joins The Winston Marshall Show for a frank and fearless conversation on Windrush, race and Britain’s deepening cultural divides.

Phillips reflects on his journey from championing multiculturalism to warning that Britain’s model of integration is broken. He unpacks how good intentions gave way to segregation, silence, and parallel societies—where shared values are eroded and tough questions are avoided in the name of tolerance.

Phillips tackle the failures of the political class, the limits of diversity policy, and the dangers of importing American-style race politics into the British context.

All this—identity, immigration, institutional fear, and the reckoning facing a nation that’s lost faith in its own story…

Former Israeli Ambassador to the U.S. Michael Oren joins The Winston Marshall Show for a sweeping conversation on Iran-Israel war — and why the West keeps failing to see the bigger picture.

Oren warns that the missile attacks from Iran are just the surface of a much deeper, ideological war—one in which Hamas, Hezbollah, the Houthis, and others act as Tehran’s proxies in a global jihadist strategy. He explains why the West misreads the region, mistaking economic grievances for religious zeal, and how this blindness has led to years of appeasement and strategic failure.

Oren discusses historic missteps, the illusion of moderation, and the rising threat of a direct Iran–Israel confrontation that could drag the world into war.

All this—Iran’s global network, the myth of proportionality, jihadist ideology, and the price of Western naivety…

Former Israeli government spokesman, Eylon Levy joins The Winston Marshall Show to break down the recent wave of attacks between Israel and Iran—and what they signal for the future of the Middle East.

Levy details how the Islamic Republic’s fingerprints are all over the region’s escalating chaos: from Hamas’s massacre on October 7th, to missile strikes launched from Syria and Iraq, to Hezbollah’s mounting aggression in the north. He warns that Iran’s proxy war is entering a new phase.

We discuss wavering support, the failure of Western deterrence, and why the global community’s obsession with “proportionality” is empowering the very forces threatening regional—and global—stability.

All this—Iranian escalation, proxy terror, Western weakness, and the gathering storm on Israel’s borders…

Theologian and cultural commentator Jonathan Pageau joins The Winston Marshall Show for a profound discussion on meaning, myth, and the crumbling foundations of the post-war consensus.

Pageau argues that the secular order built after WWII—rooted in liberalism, materialism, and the rejection of transcendent values—is collapsing under the weight of its own contradictions. As old narratives dissolve, chaos rushes in to fill the void: identity politics, technocracy, and ideological extremism.

They explore the spiritual cost of modernity, the dangers of trying to build a society without sacred stories, and why the breakdown of shared mythos is leaving the West vulnerable to civilizational decay.

All this—rituals, relativism, revolution, and the desperate search for meaning in a world that has forgotten its soul…

Documentary maker and journalist Tim Samuels joins The Winston Marshall Show for a thoughtful and challenging conversation on masculinity, identity, and the unique crisis facing white men in the modern West due to DEI.

Samuels explores how white working-class men are increasingly left behind—struggling with poor mental health, social disconnection, and a sense of being vilified in mainstream discourse.

They discuss the collapse of traditional male roles, the decline of industrial jobs, and the lack of public sympathy for a group often portrayed as privileged, yet facing rising suicide rates and dwindling prospects.

All this— forgotten communities, identity taboos, and the silent suffering of men who no longer recognise the world they’re in…

Author and broadcaster Matthew Syed joins me on The Winston Marshall Show for a sharp takedown of the post-colonial guilt underlying the decision making of Britain’s governing elite, Britain’s looming debt crisis, the case for diversity and the decline of reason in Western discourse.

Syed dismantles the lazy assumptions behind identity politics, arguing that equality of opportunity has been hijacked by a culture obsessed with group identity. He warns that diversity, when divorced from excellence, becomes a hollow virtue—and that critical thinking is being replaced by moral posturing.

Syed delves into Britain's racial discourse, the myth of systemic whiteness, and the dangers of importing American-style race politics into a very different British context.

All this—taboo truths, intellectual cowardice, the tyranny of groupthink, and the fight to restore reason in an age of ideological madness…
