🎧 NEW PODCAST EPISODE Episode 152 – Charlie Kirk Andy and Roger plunge into the dark territory surrounding the assassination of American conservative activist Charlie Kirk. With a week’s distance from the event, they examine the cultural, political, and ideological impact of Kirk’s killing, dissecting both the online reaction and the real-world implications. Roger reflects on the shocking footage, while Andy highlights the chilling effect such violence has on public discourse. They dive into Kirk’s legacy—his role in Turning Point USA, his relationship with Donald Trump, and whether his provocations should be seen as divisive or hateful. The pair also explore the media’s response, contrasting the nuance of Ezra Klein with social media hot takes, and debating whether the broader left and right handled the aftermath responsibly. The episode also ventures into the uncomfortable terrain of political violence, cancel culture, and free speech. Andy and Roger challenge the audience to consider what trends are actually emerging—and whether the centre is still holding.
