James O'Brien is a treasure. I found him a few years ago and his show is a long-time favorite of mine. A voice of reason in an ocean of misinformation.

Wouldn't go that far

Re your question would the Farage riots have happened without Musk buying Twitter, from Ireland, I don't think the Dublin riots would have happened, the far right got nowhere in the recent Irish election

I notice they dodge this with 'free expression'.

We will all be whacked by 'creatives'.

Thanks, will have a listen on global player. James O'Brien is fast becoming my never-miss listening material.

UK based radio, but listening around the local references still provides a morning well listened too! Fascinating second hour….

I understand you’re a Lizard, Will? I heard it on the Radio about 11:30 this morning, so it must be true? Especially as it was said by someone who knows how not to be wrong.

I loved your chat with @mrjamesob. I could hear the emotion in your voice and completely concur. It's terrifying.

Hi will, do you have any concerns about the new AI Google search?

I can't help but fear that this can/will be more easily manipulated.

Will people scroll to find legitimate sources or just go with the "search result"

With the degradation of legacy media I worry re facts/where to find them.

mattmoo16.bsky.social•51 days ago

Ps heard you on the show. You didn't put my mind at rest.

The earth is flat
Up is down
Left is right
Facts don’t matter
god help us all.
