544. Andrew Doyle - Keir Starmer, The End of Woke & Islam

Is this the end of woke? In this explosive conversation with Andrew Doyle, we dive deep into the signs that the woke movement is finally losing steam — from people quietly removing pronouns from their bios to Keir Starmer's increasingly authoritarian stance. We tackle the culture war, the failure of liberalism, the rise of illiberal Islam in the UK, and why both the left and right are embracing censorship.

Andrew Doyle, author of The New Puritans and creator of Titania McGrath, pulls no punches as he calls out Starmer's Labour for cheering on hate speech laws, dismantles the contradictions of modern progressivism, and explains why the next culture war is already brewing. We also discuss what "woke" even means, and whether liberal democracy can survive in the long run.

What makes you a heretic? Journalist Andrew Gold believes that, in an age of group-think and tribes, we need heretics - those who use unconventional wisdom to speak out against their own groups, from cancelled comedians and radical feminists to cult defectors and vigilantes hunting deviants. Learn from my guests how to rebel, think differently and resist social contagion. From Triggernometry's Francis Foster and the world's most cancelled man Graham Linehan to Robbie Williams and gender critical atheist Richard Dawkins. These are the people living with the weight of their own community's disappointment on their shoulders.
