Paul English Live

Broadcasts live every Thursday at 8:00p.m. uk time on Radio Soapbox: http://radiosoapbox.comBonfire Night gave us the perfect springboard for a wide-ranging and incendiary conversation in episode 164. I was joined by returning guest Mike Burke and my ever-reliable foil Eric Von Essex as we dug into the history behind Guy Fawkes, the Gunpowder Plot, the King James Bible, Lewes Bonfire traditions, and the bigger constitutional and religious questions that still echo through British life. From James I and the Jesuits to the slow drift of power away from monarch and parliament towards the executive state, we followed a line of argument that challenged the simplified schoolbook version of events and asked what really changed Britain over the centuries.In hour three, Eli James joined us and the discussion widened into usury, banking power, democracy, nationalism, corruption, media narratives, and the long decline of public life on both sides of the Atlantic. It was one of those shows where history, theology, politics and culture all collided, with plenty of sharp observations, dark humour and the usual late-night wandering into the roots of how things got this way.Paul English Live: https://paulenglishlive.com/Food For Thought Radio: https://www.fftradio.com/Paul English on FFT: https://www.fftradio.com/shows/paul-english/Eric Von Essex on FFT: https://www.fftradio.com/djs/eric-von-essex/Fockham Hall on FFT: https://www.fftradio.com/shows/fockham-hall/EURO·FOLK·RADIO: https://eurofolkradio.com/The Global Voice Internet Radio: https://www.theglobalvoice.info/Lewes Bonfire information: https://www.visitlewes.co.uk/information/lewes-bonfireHampton Court Palace: https://www.hrp.org.uk/hampton-court-palace/The Tablet: https://www.thetablet.co.uk/Rulers of Evil by F.

Broadcasts live every Thursday at 8:00p.m. uk time on Radio Soapbox: http://radiosoapbox.comI kicked off this week’s show with a proper ramble through the little things that make life feel human — seaside walks, Halloween versus Bonfire Night, odd memories of bargain-bin fireworks, my son’s impressive new phone camera setup, a surprisingly lovely chat with a listener I met out walking, and even a bit about finally getting stuck into cleaning the house. We also had a laugh about acupuncture, old-fashioned nursing, architecture, and the strange comforts of poetry, before the evening took a much more serious turn.My main guest was Debi Evans, the "Gobby Granny", and we got into a wide-ranging conversation about the Fabian Society, Labour politics, the London School of Economics, the NHS, Palantir, surveillance, AI note-taking in healthcare, mass immigration, propaganda, and the importance of rebuilding real-world community. In the final hour Monica Schaefer joined us from Canada, where we spoke about time-zone absurdities, prison letters from Alfred Schaefer, bats and storks as little signs of hope, poetry, memory, and why beauty, truth and human connection still matter in an increasingly synthetic world.Paul English Live: https://paulenglishlive.com/Food For Thought Radio (FFT Radio): https://www.fftradio.com/Fabian Society: https://fabians.org.uk/about-us/Fabian Window at LSE: https://www.lse.ac.uk/supporting-lse/our-supporters/benefactorsLondon School of Economics and Political Science: https://www.lse.ac.uk/Truth and Justice for Germans Society: https://truthandjusticeforgermans.com/Debi Evans Uncaptured (Substack): https://substack.com/@debievansmatronLSB Films (Patreon): https://www.patreon.com/LSBFilmsDuke of Wellington, Shoreham-by-Sea: https://www.thewelly.co.uk/GoPro: https://gopro.com/en/us/NHS App: https://www.nhs.uk/nhs-app/NHS Federated Data Platform update: https://www.england.nhs.uk/long-read/federated-data-platform-update/Palantir UK: https://www.palantir.com/uk/Spartacus Educational: https://www.spartacus-educational.com/Roger Scruton Oikos: https://roger-scruton.com/Liz Truss / Bank Job (Free Speech Press author page): https://freespeechpress.co.uk/liz-truss/Free Speech Press: https://freespeechpress.co.uk/The Artilect War by Hugo de Garis: https://books.google.com/books/about/The_Artilect_War.html?id=wwgdzgEACAAJThe Raven by Edgar Allan Poe: https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/48860/the-ravenIf— by Rudyard Kipling: https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/46473/if---Rumble: https://rumble.com/

Broadcasts live every Thursday at 8:00p.m. uk time on Radio Soapbox: http://radiosoapbox.comTonight I opened with the great biannual absurdity of the clocks changing, and Eric and I had plenty to say about the confusion, the faff and the wider sense that modern life is designed to make simple things harder than they need to be. From there we moved into a Dutch court case drawing in big names including Bill Gates, Albert Bourla and Mark Rutte, and then into a broader discussion about media silence, public trust, publishing, banking, law, and the need to get clear ideas into short, readable formats that ordinary people will actually engage with.In the second half I was joined by Joss for a spirited and often very funny conversation about the Fabian Society, captured institutions, community resilience, local self-organisation, policing, authority and what meaningful resistance might look like at street level. Along the way we touched on books, old and new media, practical mutual aid, underground publishing, the importance of morale, and why rebuilding real community may be one of the few sane ways through the mess we are living in.Paul English Live: https://paulenglishlive.com/Food For Thought Radio: https://www.fftradio.com/WBN324 Talk Radio: https://linktr.ee/wbn324The Netherlands Case (official case site and livestream information): https://thenetherlandscase.com/livestreamsRechtspraak livestreams: https://www.rechtspraak.nl/livestreamsHans Brinker Hostel Amsterdam: https://hansbrinker.com/home/Free Speech Press: https://freespeechpress.co.uk/Liz Truss at Free Speech Press (includes Bank Job): https://freespeechpress.co.uk/liz-truss/The Network UK: https://the-network-uk.org/Fabian Society: https://fabians.org.uk/about-us/London School of Economics and Political Science: https://www.lse.ac.uk/home.aspx/Claude by Anthropic: https://support.anthropic.com/en/articles/8114487-what-interfaces-can-i-use-to-access-claudeBill Gates at the Gates Foundation: https://www.gatesfoundation.org/about/leadership/bill-gatesDr Albert Bourla at Pfizer: https://www.pfizer.com/people/leadership/board-of-directors/dr-albert_bourlaMark Rutte at NATO: https://www.nato.int/cps/uk/natohq/who_is_who_229125.htmJD McPherson: https://www.jdmcpherson.com/Focus: https://focustheband.co.uk/Boots by Rudyard Kipling (The Kipling Society): https://www.kiplingsociety.co.uk/readers-guide/rg_boots1.htmFifty Years in the Church of Rome by Charles P.

Broadcasts live every Thursday at 8:00p.m. uk time on Radio Soapbox: http://radiosoapbox.comAfter an irksome start wrestling with streaming gremlins, I settled in with Paul Gunson for a wide-ranging first conversation that moved from childhood questions about faith to biblical history, giants, Revelation, the antichrist, Noah, Nimrod, Gog and Magog, and the way ancient themes may still be playing out in modern politics and culture. We also got into debt, usury, gold, jubilees, birth certificates, trust law, CBDCs, and the claim that much of today’s political and financial disorder only makes sense when viewed through a spiritual and scriptural lens.In the final hour, Eli James joined me for a looser but no less lively exchange on prohibition, Rockefeller influence, social engineering, the French Revolution, communism, egalitarian fantasies, and the practical incompetence of ideologues who want to rule other people’s lives. Along the way we managed to squeeze in Kipling, Jeff Beck, doors, fridges, prisons, practical life, and the broader problem of how modern people are manipulated into accepting systems that work against common sense, community, and human dignity.Paul English Live: https://paulenglishlive.com/Food For Thought Radio (FFT Radio): https://www.fftradio.com/Paul English on FFT: https://www.fftradio.com/djs/paul-english/WBN324 Talk Radio: https://linktr.ee/wbn324YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/Rumble: https://rumble.com/UK Column: https://www.ukcolumn.org/Eli James: https://www.elijames.co/Maria Wheatley: https://mariawheatley.uk/The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints: https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/The Book of Enoch (Project Gutenberg): https://www.gutenberg.org/cache/epub/77815/pg77815-images.htmlLittle House on the Prairie: https://littlehouseontheprairie.com/The Death of Stalin: https://www.paramountpictures.com/movies/death-of-stalinIn the Loop: https://filmsandfestivals.britishcouncil.org/projects/in-the-loopThe Mouse That Roared: https://www.sonypictures.com/movies/themousethatroaredThe Kipling Society: https://www.kiplingsociety.co.uk/Rudyard Kipling’s “The Stranger”: https://www.kiplingsociety.co.uk/readers-guide/rg_stranger1.htmJeff Beck: https://www.jeffbeck.com/The English Counties Assembly (TECA): https://www.teca.live/The Genesis Trust: https://thegenesistrust.com/

Broadcasts live every Thursday at 8:00p.m. uk time on Radio Soapbox: http://radiosoapbox.comThis evening’s show began in gloriously frazzled fashion, with Rumble refusing to cooperate and forcing us to improvise, but we settled in soon enough with the usual mix of absurdity and substance. I caught up with Eric Von Essex for a meandering and very entertaining opening hour that ranged from swollen front doors, broken locks and chainsaw-based home maintenance to the practical realities of trying to keep a crumbling house and studio in one piece. We also touched on the recent FFT solution summit, the challenge of keeping on top of a growing network of contacts and guests, and the idea of eventually turning the shed into a proper in-person interview space rather than always broadcasting remotely.In hour two, Miles Johnston joined me for a wide-ranging discussion on antigravity, Victor Grebennikov, insect wing structures, Coral Castle, megalithic knowledge, Stonehenge, Tartaria, Antarctica, pole shifts and Lucy Wyatt’s book Approaching Chaos. In the final hour, Etta Volk brought her usual forceful energy to a conversation about propaganda, historical narratives, censorship, immigration, social fracture and the sense that younger generations may now be more willing to challenge official stories than their parents ever were. All in all, a chaotic, funny and provocative edition of the programme that somehow held together despite the technical gremlins at the start.Paul English Live: https://paulenglishlive.com/Food For Thought Radio (FFT Radio): https://www.fftradio.com/WBN324 Talk Radio: https://linktr.ee/wbn324EURO·FOLK·RADIO: https://eurofolkradio.com/The Global Voice Internet Radio: https://www.theglobalvoice.info/Paul English Live on Rumble: https://rumble.com/PaulEnglishLiveYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/BASES TV: https://www.basestv.com/BASES TV Events / Tickets: https://www.basestv.org/Richard Vobes: https://www.vobes.com/Lucy Wyatt — Approaching Chaos: https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/Approaching-Chaos/Lucy-Wyatt/9781846942556Maria Wheatley: https://www.mariawheatley.uk/Coral Castle: https://coralcastle.com/Truth11.com: https://www.truth11.com/Earthfiles (Linda Moulton Howe): https://www.earthfiles.com/Tucker Carlson Network: https://tuckercarlson.com/George Carlin: https://georgecarlin.com/Monty Python: https://www.montypython.com/Spike Milligan: https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/authors/54510/spike-milligan/David Irving / Focal Point Publications: https://fpp.co.uk/Patrick J.

Broadcasts live every Thursday at 8:00p.m. uk time on Radio Soapbox: http://radiosoapbox.comEli James joins us in hour 3 to chew over Rulers of Evil, 50 Years in the Church of Rome and The Two Babylons. Chainsaws and other sorted tosh in the first part of the show. 

Broadcasts live every Thursday at 8:00p.m. uk time on Radio Soapbox: http://radiosoapbox.comI opened this week’s show in a thoroughly autumnal mood, reflecting on the first real glow of the season, the strange sweetness of late September, and a memorial gathering that brought old friends, old bands and old memories back into sharp focus. From there we wandered, as we do, through Henley, black-and-white dogtooth jackets, Frank Bellamy’s magnificent comic artwork, Heath Robinson, harmonicas, Motown, and the sort of English melancholy that seems to arrive with falling conkers and warm evenings at the tail end of summer.The heart of the episode was a long and lively conversation with John Briggs, author of Alice and the Money Tree, Revisited, about debt-based money, usury, political power and the problem of how to explain financial fraud in plain English. We talked about history, propaganda, children’s stories, comics, Belloc, The Wizard of Oz, and the need to get foundational ideas across simply enough that ordinary people can grasp what sits underneath the whole system. In the final hour, Monica Schaefer joined us with grave news about her brother Alfred Schaefer, who has been sentenced in Germany to seven years in prison for speech. Monica spoke movingly about prisoners of war in the present age, the use of force when argument fails, and why the answer cannot be fear or silence but greater clarity, courage and resolve.Paul English Live: https://paulenglishlive.com/Paul English Live on Rumble: https://rumble.com/PaulEnglishLiveFood For Thought Radio (FFT Radio): https://www.fftradio.com/WBN324 Talk Radio: https://linktr.ee/wbn324FTJ Media: https://ftjmedia.com/?lang=englishFree Speech Monika: https://freespeechmonika.com/UK Column: https://www.ukcolumn.org/Alice and the Money Tree by J.

Broadcasts live every Thursday at 8:00p.m. uk time on Radio Soapbox: http://radiosoapbox.comI opened the show in gloriously ramshackle fashion with Eric Von Essex, a moon-over-the-sea weather report, and far too much excitement about my broken kitchen door and the unexpectedly heroic walk to the studio. From there, the evening turned into a genuinely rich conversation with Anna Isabel, who explored astrology as far more than star signs and used it as a springboard into something bigger: the long imbalance between ‘yin’ and ‘yang’ ways of living, the loss of the sacred, and the kind of civilisational values that have shaped power, hierarchy and control. We also wandered through Druids, Cathars, chivalry, community, and why so much of history seems to celebrate conquest while ignoring gentler, more collaborative societies.In hour two, after a brief wrestle with the Internet, Dee Dee Hilliard joined me to talk about CABI — the Community Assembly of the British Isles — and the practical side of restoring community life, lawful self-governance, mutual support and local resilience. We touched on food, councils, trust, self-sufficiency and why real change may come from people quietly stepping back into responsibility together. Later, Dr Miles Fleetwood dropped in to discuss natural health, nutrition, acupuncture, depleted soils, Chinese medicine and the strange gap between modern scientific confidence and what our bodies actually need. All in all, one of those evenings where sheds, sovereignty, spirit and supplements somehow ended up sharing the same table.Paul English Live: https://paulenglishlive.com/Paul English Live on Rumble: https://rumble.com/PaulEnglishLiveFood For Thought Radio (FFT Radio): https://www.fftradio.com/Community Assembly of the British Isles (CABI): https://www.ca-britishisles.com/Ana Isabel / Life Astrologer: https://www.lifeastrologer.com/Astrological Association: https://www.astrologicalassociation.com/World Council for Health: https://www.worldcouncilforhealth.org/Dr Tess Lawrie at World Council for Health: https://www.worldcouncilforhealth.org/important-message-dr-tess-lawrie/Richard Stanley — Otto Rahn, Grail Hunter: https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/Otto-Rahn-Grail-Hunter/Richard-Stanley/9798888501559Jon G.

Broadcasts live every Thursday at 8:00p.m. uk time on Radio Soapbox: http://radiosoapbox.comNOTE: we had an Issue connecting David to hence the slightly shorter show.I kicked off episode 156 with Eric Von Essex for one of our gloriously daft shed reports before we veered into the far less amusing business of war rhetoric, conscription chatter and the increasingly absurd language coming out of politics. The main guest was David Adelman, better known as The People’s Lawyer, who joined me after a bout of technical gremlins and gave a fascinating account of how he moved from law into education, public speaking and rights-based work. We talked about his book School - No Place for Children, the failures of modern schooling, the Prussian roots of compliance culture, the misuse of language in legal settings, and why he believes people need to understand the roles and assumptions the system quietly persuades them to accept.In the final stretch, Etta Volk joined us from Chicago for a transatlantic catch-up on the state of the media, political theatre, social pressure, migration and the mood among ordinary people in both the UK and the US. We also got into the collapse of public trust, generational shifts, and whether younger people may end up dismantling broken institutions simply by refusing to submit to them. Add in harmonicas, fruit crumble, a few scandalously British food references and the usual late-night mischief, and it turned into a lively, wide-ranging show with more than a few unexpected turns.Paul English Live: https://paulenglishlive.com/Paul English Live on Rumble: https://rumble.com/PaulEnglishLiveFood For Thought Radio (FFT Radio): https://www.fftradio.com/The People’s Lawyer: https://thepeopleslawyeruk.com/School - No Place For Children by David Adelman: https://www.hatchards.co.uk/book/school-no-place-for-children/david-adelman/9781978370036University of Cambridge: https://www.cam.ac.uk/English Bridge Union: https://www.ebu.co.uk/The Glastonbury Symposium: https://glastonburysymposium.co.uk/Word Magic: The Powers & Occult Definitions of Words by Pao Chang: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/35171666-word-magicSir Ken Robinson on TED: https://www.ted.com/speakers/sir_ken_robinsonThe Deliberate Dumbing Down of America by Charlotte Thomson Iserbyt: https://deliberatedumbingdown.com/ddd/deliberate-dumbing-down/Mary Rodwell official website: https://www.maryrodwell.com.au/The New Human by Mary Rodwell: https://www.maryrodwell.com.au/shopThe Mark Attwood Show: https://themarkattwoodshow.com/Lorraine Bowen official website: https://lorrainebowen.co.uk/The Crumble Song by Lorraine Bowen: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7GSMCsBdCSABritain’s Got Talent: https://www.itv.com/britainsgottalent10 Abilities the Book of Enoch Says Humans Lost And Who Took Them: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AMEIPH0KWGoThe Book of Enoch online text: https://www.bookofenoch.org/

Broadcasts live every Thursday at 8:00p.m. uk time on Radio Soapbox: http://radiosoapbox.comTonight I went gloriously off-piste before getting to the heart of the matter. We began with a ramble through names, old television, streaking, pipe smoking, nostalgia and the strange way the seasons now seem to be dictated for us, before settling into a broader discussion about newspapers, satire and whether we ought to create our own irreverent publication in the spirit of the old trench papers. From there, I reflected on Hilaire Belloc, the decline in journalistic standards, and the way headlines and institutions now seem less interested in informing people than in steering them. Along the way we touched on the power of humour to tell the truth, the loss of self-reliance, and even found time for a passionate diversion into blackberry crumble, pizza dough, and a marvellous little 1950s-flavoured clip about time travel and modern neuroses.In the second half, the conversation turned more directly to brainwashing, belief, propaganda and the mechanisms by which people are conditioned not to question what they are told. We talked about democracy, juries, law, hidden power, institutional decay, and several books and essays that have shaped these ideas for us, including works by Belloc, Jason Christoff, Tupper Saussy and others. Rudyard Kipling provided the soundtrack, with AI-rendered versions of The Stranger and Tommy prompting a discussion about nationhood, loyalty and cultural memory. In the final hour, Eli James joined us from America for a lively exchange on propaganda, social engineering, media narratives, education, mass persuasion and the wider spiritual and political malaise of the age.Paul English Live: https://paulenglishlive.com/Food For Thought Radio: https://www.fftradio.com/WBN324 Talk Radio: https://linktr.ee/wbn324Paul English Live on Rumble: https://rumble.com/user/paulenglishlive/channelsThe People's Lawyer: https://thepeopleslawyeruk.com/The Bowler Hat Farmer: https://thebowlerhatfarmer.com/Professor Richard Werner: https://professorwerner.org/Jason Christoff: https://www.jchristoff.com/Planet Mind Control: https://www.planetmindcontrol.com/Democracy Defined: https://democracydefined.org/Economics for Helen by Hilaire Belloc: https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/75629Political Ponerology: https://www.redpillpress.com/shop/political-ponerology-expanded/Fake News by Mike Graham: https://books.mailshop.co.uk/fake-news-9781918396157/The Great Impersonation by Eli James: https://www.bannedbyamazon.com/product-page/the-great-impersonationThe Kipling Society: https://www.kiplingsociety.co.uk/The Stranger by Rudyard Kipling: https://www.kiplingsociety.co.uk/readers-guide/rg_stranger1.htmTommy by Rudyard Kipling: https://www.kiplingsociety.co.uk/readers-guide/rg_tommy1.htmThe Wipers Times: https://www.nam.ac.uk/explore/wipers-timesSooty Official Shop: https://sootyshop.com/en-us/pages/about-usBreaking Bad: https://www.sonypictures.com/tv/breakingbadRay Stevens discography (includes The Streak): https://raystevens.com/discography/
