Podcast defends culture

Our feature interview is with the author of "Culturism", John Press, who says if we don't believe we have the right to defend our own culture, then we'll lose it. Which would be bad. For everyone.

The book is available at his website and at Amazon dot com.

In this week's show, we mark the passing of William F Buckley, discuss the UK government's much-feared new anti-jihadi strategy of making terrorists sit on the naughty seat, now that Kosovo is independent, how long will California remain part of the United States,and we have excerpts from this remarkable You Tube video of a group of students watching growing increasingly incredulous as the BBC resolutely refuses to do its job and cover breaking news.

Meryl Yourish is along with a handy guide for perplexed US voters.

Hollywood conservative comedian, Evan Sayet, is along to clue us in as to why people are avoiding Tinseltown's anti-war borefests.

Congratulations also to one of our regular contributors, Damian Penny, whose blog, Daimnation, has been ranked as 8th in the list of Canada's top 25 political blogs. The "A Dime A Dozen" blog used a combination of web traffic and Alexa ranking to work out which websites are most influential. In first place was, naturally Mark Steyn , and the wonderful Kate McMillan's Small Dead Animals came in at number four.

Just behind Damian Penny in tenth place is the absolutely brilliant Kathy Shaidle with Five Feet of Fury, and all of them managed to top Canada's answer to Lionel Hutz,Warren Kinsella who limped home at number 24.
