First time i've listened to Castle in a while. He's so cringe, it's embarassing. He's like a vanilla tennis coach at some run down David Llyod health club somewhere in the home counties. No wait, that's what he actually is! :ROFLMAO: Still, I don't think he's inherently evil in anyway, so I suppose he can be forgiven. Or maybe he is the banality of evil and the devil incarnate. It's hard to tell. God, I'm so discombobulated ... I think I need to go to James' book tour when it comes near me, that will re-calibrate my chakra's.

Oh, I don't know. I find him quite soothing. He doesn't have any political axes to grind; he doesn't try to be profound; he doesn't add 'yeah?' to every point he's trying to make. After listening to an hour of Oli Dugmore doing all that, Andrew comes as something of a relief.

Fair point. Bland and non-shouty is a good hangover cure on a Saturday morning.
 
Oli Dugmore - living proof that Fred Kite still exists.

I think Andrew did well not to end up screaming down the phone at Hassan, a fanatical ranter who simply refused to engage in reasonable discussion and responded to every question with another question.

Andrew strikes me as a man who has mild depression. I think he finds it hard to get emotionally invested in anything.

Lammy going full-on "We're not a bunch of anti-semites in the Labour Party". Christ, it's insufferable.

I think Andrew is just trying to protect his own mental health by not getting emotionally involved in really contentious issues. He sounded really exhausted this morning. It can't be easy trying to deal with fanatical callers who have a rigid agenda. It must be draining emotionally?

According to the Other Place, Hassan was calmly putting his opinion across and had Andrew on the ropes.That is just a bit frightening. 😟

I heard some of that call. Andrew was asking him to answer a specific question and Hassan would go around the houses to avoid it. I suspect the 'others' need to go to have ear wax removed from their ears!!

I doubt if he'd be allowed on, although the four politicians would be used to arguing with nutters. But I don't think Vorderman would cope.

The Vorderman will be heavily monitored. I won't listen, but it would be good if someone here does and reports back. There is no bleeping way anyone who paints Carol and her views in a bad light will be accepted to call-in and make a show of her.
