Thank you for your discussion on farming today and on Farmed Outrage earlier in the week. @pimlicat.bsky.social and @sturdyalex.bsky.social have articulated precisely the right arguments, in my opinion, and sensitively so. @libdems.org.uk & @teamlabouruk.bsky.social, please listen

Quiet Riot has replaced The News Agents for me. Sopel & Maitlis are just too gleeful about Trump's worst excesses. That was the fuel that drove Johnson/Truss era coverage. We were forced to live on junk food. Quiet Riot provides deep, civilised, unhurried discussion & I'm so grateful for all you do.

And we are grateful that you listen. x

I’m a new listener and Quiet Riot becoming one of my favourite podcasts! Intriguing insights and unexpected swearing. Thank you both 👍🏻

grumpybb.bsky.social•101 days ago

The unexpected swearing adds perfectly to the entertainment 😁

Another episode where I found myself nodding along.
However, on Spotify, we got three - yes, three! - American ads in the 43-min pod. Is that from you guys or Spotify?

quietriotpod.bsky.social•101 days ago

It's a rare occasional glitch. A couple of times people have had even German or Spanish ads. In communication with your browser, the algorithm just misunderstands where you are located. A x

If you're, say, in Spain, or on a Spanish VPN, an app such as Grover Pro delivers Spanish ads as you stream. So I have found, anyway!

I think that Hamas of the scum of the Earth and have since 2006 but even Alex seems to buy into BN s assertion that they are deliberately hiding behind civilians whilst overlooking the fact that there are 15kpeople per squ mile in Gaza. Where else could they hide?

quietriotpod.bsky.social•100 days ago

That's not what I said. Please don't put words in my mouth. I said "they are enmeshed with civilians" precisely because of the tiny space. A x

Sorry Alex, I really wasn’t trying to have a go at you. I just find the whole thing so soul destroying and I don’t think for a second you are excusing what’s happening and if I gave that impression, I really didn’t mean to. Ax

Just looked on the Quiet Riot webpage and there isn't a link to Bluesky on there at the bottom. As a newbie to this site, are there issues making Bluesky links as I have seen so few on webpages in the wild? (Is it just a butterfly symbol?)

quietriotpod.bsky.social•100 days ago

No. It's just an oversight. I'll sort it later. Thank you for prodding. A x

Listening now, and really enjoying it. I cooked a shepherd's pie for dinner to take the edge off this horrid weather (I'm sure Quorn mince and veggie stock could work, although I've not tried that yet) and was immediately smiling at the clip at the start.

Perfect for a Sunday night!
