Anneke Lucas - The American BILLIONAIRE Predator EXPOSED on Patrick Bet David
Anneke Lucas joins Andrew Gold to discuss the shocking story she shared on Patrick Bet-David’s podcast — including the mysterious American billionaire she alleges was part of a powerful network operating far above public scrutiny. In this gripping conversation, Anneke expands on what she revealed previously: the psychological dynamics, the hidden hierarchies, and the extraordinary influence held by certain elite figures. If you want more interviews that tackle the subjects mainstream media won’t touch, make sure you subscribe to Heretics Clips: https://www.youtube.com/@hereticsclips/videos In this clip, Anneke describes how she recognised one powerful American businessman from her past — a man she claims wielded enormous global influence and operated with the kind of protection only the world’s wealthiest enjoy. While she avoids graphic detail, Anneke explains how certain personalities in elite circles use charm, status and manipulation to maintain control, and why these behaviours often go unquestioned at the highest levels of society. Her account raises disturbing questions about how such figures move through the world without accountability. Andrew pushes for clarity: How does someone with unimaginable wealth and influence remain shielded from scrutiny? What patterns did she recognise when speaking with Patrick Bet-David? Why do certain names keep appearing in accounts of elite abuse networks? And why do survivors often identify the same behavioural traits — secrecy, entitlement, and a chilling lack of empathy? Anneke speaks candidly about the psychological fallout of her experiences, the difficulty of speaking publicly about powerful people, and why many survivors stay silent for decades. She also explains why she believes public awareness is finally shifting — and why more people are now willing to listen to stories that once seemed too dark or too unbelievable. This conversation isn’t about sensationalism — it’s about understanding the structures of power that allow certain individuals to operate unchecked. Anneke’s story is one of survival, insight and an unwavering commitment to speaking truth to power. 🔥 Watch the full podcast here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1wc4AcaKw-4 #AnnekeLucas #ElitePower #Heretics #AndrewGold #SurvivorStories #PowerStructures #Psychology #PBDPodcast Learn more about your ad choices.

Connie Shaw - Threatened with VIOLENCE for Gender Critical Views at Leeds University
👉 Subscribe to Heretics Clips for more explosive interviews: https://www.youtube.com/@hereticsclips/videos 🔥 Leeds University has become the centre of a shocking free speech scandal that reveals just how dangerous it has become to hold gender-critical views in British academia. At the heart of this controversy is Connie Shaw, a former Leeds Student Radio presenter, who was accused of “bringing the station into disrepute” simply for interviewing comedy writer Graham Linehan on her podcast. What followed was a nightmare of censorship, intimidation, and even threats of violence. Instead of defending her right to free expression, the university launched a Kafkaesque disciplinary process that felt more like Stalinist Russia than a modern British campus. Connie was banned from university grounds, socially ostracised, and pressured to undergo what amounted to ideological re-education. 👉 Watch the full podcast here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zeLnRAhlb6M In this gripping interview, Connie reveals: The most shocking question she faced during her disciplinary hearing. How gender ideology has captured UK universities, from “gender expression funds” for binders and tuckers to professors enforcing speech codes. The chilling social isolation she endured, with friends told not to be seen with her. The disturbing threats of violence she received for daring to question the prevailing orthodoxy. How Toby Young and the Free Speech Union stepped in at her lowest point — support she describes as life-saving. This is more than one student’s ordeal. It’s a warning about the authoritarian culture spreading through higher education — where open debate is replaced with ideological policing, and where speaking out comes with devastating personal consequences. 👉 Stay tuned until the end for Connie’s future plans, the surprising inspirations that kept her going, and her powerful message to anyone worried about censorship, cancel culture, and academic freedom. This isn’t just a student scandal. It’s a test of whether free speech has any future left in British universities. #ConnieShaw #FreeSpeechUnion #LeedsUniversity #GenderCritical #CancelCulture #AcademicFreedom #Woke Learn more about your ad choices.

Dr. Raj Persaud - Celebrity Psychiatrist: The DARK Truth Why Celebs FAIL at Parenting
👉 Subscribe now to Heretics Clips for fearless conversations the mainstream avoids: https://www.youtube.com/@hereticsclips/videos Why do so many celebrities fail at parenting despite their fame, wealth, and influence? In this gripping interview, celebrity psychiatrist Dr. Raj Persaud exposes the disturbing psychological truths behind why famous figures often struggle to raise grounded, balanced children. From David Tennant speaking publicly about his trans child, to high-profile scandals involving celebrity families, Persaud asks the tough questions: Are these decisions genuinely rooted in love and understanding — or is there a darker mix of narcissism, virtue-signalling, and psychological blind spots at play? 🔥 In this conversation, Dr. Raj Persaud unpacks: Why celebrity culture warps parenting instincts and creates unhealthy family dynamics. The psychology behind David Tennant’s outspoken support for his child’s gender identity — and what it reveals about the pressures of fame. How narcissism, psychopathy, and Machiavellian tendencies can show up in celebrity households. Why celebrities are often quick to broadcast their family issues for public approval rather than handle them privately. The unsettling parallels between celebrity parenting and wider scandals in media and power structures. The interview raises a chilling question: Are celebrity children being used as props in a public performance designed to protect reputations and signal moral virtue? And if so, what long-term psychological damage could this cause? Dr. Persaud doesn’t hold back. He dives deep into the dark psychology of fame, revealing how the same traits that make celebrities successful — relentless ambition, self-obsession, and the hunger for validation — may also make them the worst role models as parents. 👉 Stick around until the end for Persaud’s most shocking insight into how celebrity culture normalises dysfunction, and why ordinary families should think twice before taking cues from the parenting choices of the rich and famous. 🎥 Watch the full podcast here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zh3ONC9GQAQ #bbc #jimmysavile #huwedwards #davidtennant #celebrityparenting #transkids #rajpersaud #celebrityculture #narcissism #virtuesignalling #hereticsclips Learn more about your ad choices.

Andy Webb - The DARK Truth About the BBC's Panorama Princess Diana Interview
Investigative journalist Andy Webb joins Andrew Gold to reveal the dark truth behind the BBC’s Panorama interview with Princess Diana — a scandal that shook Britain, destroyed trust in the broadcaster, and exposed shocking deception at the heart of one of the most-watched interviews in history. Webb has spent years digging into the case, uncovering the lies, forged documents and manipulation used by Martin Bashir to secure the interview. If you want more fearless investigations like this, make sure you subscribe to Heretics Clips: https://www.youtube.com/@hereticsclips/videos In this explosive clip, Andy Webb breaks down how the BBC’s prized Panorama episode — hailed at the time as a groundbreaking insight into Princess Diana’s life — was built on a foundation of deceit. Webb explains how forged bank statements, fabricated threats and false allegations were used to manipulate Diana into believing she was being spied on and betrayed. According to Webb, the interview never would have happened without these unethical tactics. But the scandal doesn’t end with Bashir. Webb exposes the BBC’s attempts to protect its reputation, conceal the truth and silence internal critics for decades. He details how senior figures at the BBC ignored warning signs, dismissed whistleblowers and buried key evidence to keep the deception hidden from the public — and even from Diana herself. What makes the story even darker is the long-term impact it had on Princess Diana’s life. Webb reveals how the Panorama interview intensified Diana’s fears, deepened her sense of isolation, and influenced some of the most significant decisions she made in the years that followed. It wasn’t just a television moment — it was a turning point that shaped Diana’s final chapters. Why did the BBC allow this to happen? How far did the cover-up go? And what does the scandal reveal about the flaws inside one of the world’s most trusted broadcasters? Webb answers these questions with rare insight, explaining how the BBC’s failings damaged not only Diana, but the corporation’s integrity for a generation. If you’ve ever wondered what really happened behind the scenes of the most controversial interview in royal history — and why the BBC does not want this story re-examined — this conversation reveals the full truth, without spin. 🔥 Watch the full podcast here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2qq9fcGZTKM #PrincessDiana #MartinBashir #BBCScandal #Panorama #AndyWebb #RoyalFamily #Heretics #AndrewGold #DianaInterview #BBC Learn more about your ad choices.

Extremism Expert Charles Asher Small - Tucker Carlson is a QATARI Asset
Andrew Gold sits down with Charles Asher Small, one of the world’s foremost experts on extremism, for a gripping, deeply researched exposé into how global influence networks quietly shape Western politics, media, and culture. In this eye-opening conversation, Small breaks down the silent, decades-long strategy he believes is now reaching its pivotal moment — and why the West may be dangerously unprepared. Subscribe to Heretics Clips for more explosive interviews: https://www.youtube.com/@hereticsclips/videos Charles Asher Small reveals how a coordinated ideological project — originating nearly a century ago — has enabled extremist movements to gain influence across Western institutions, academia, political circles and the media. He argues that while the vast majority of Muslims simply want peaceful, stable lives, a small number of ideological actors have spent decades embedding themselves within influential Western structures, often unnoticed and unchallenged. One of the most provocative themes in this discussion is Small’s analysis of Qatar’s vast soft-power network. Without making defamatory or unverified allegations, he explains how influence campaigns — whether through funding, cultural partnerships, or academic engagement — can shape public narratives and political debate in subtle but powerful ways. Small also examines what he calls the “Red–Green Alliance” — the strategic convergence between radical left-wing groups and Islamist ideologues who, despite differing worldviews, share a desire to transform Western societies. He argues that ignoring this ideological partnership could have significant long-term consequences. In this episode, we explore: Whether the West is “sleepwalking into a revolution” Why countries like Jordan and the UAE have outlawed the Muslim Brotherhood The UK’s 40,000-person jihadist watchlist and what it reveals How ideological networks influence political elites, academia, and the media The implications for women, LGBTQ+ people, minorities, and democratic freedoms Whether Western governments are too afraid to confront these challenges Despite the grave warnings, Small repeatedly emphasises that the danger lies in extremist ideologies — not in ordinary Muslim communities, who often suffer first under authoritarian movements. This is a high-stakes, deeply informed conversation about ideology, geopolitics, extremism, and the future of liberal democracy — delivered responsibly, without sensationalism and without hate.

Richard Dawkins Drops BOMBSHELL on First Alien Contact
👉 Subscribe now to Heretics Clips for more fearless conversations with the world’s most controversial thinkers: https://www.youtube.com/@hereticsclips/videos 🚀 What happens when alien life finally makes contact with Earth? In this gripping interview, world-renowned biologist and outspoken atheist Richard Dawkins explores one of humanity’s most profound questions: are we alone in the universe, and how would religion react if we’re not? Dawkins, best known for his groundbreaking works The Selfish Gene and The God Delusion, doesn’t hold back. He unpacks the scientific likelihood of alien civilizations, what forms of intelligence we might expect, and why the first contact scenario could shatter religious dogmas worldwide. Will it be radio signals, probes, or even face-to-face visitation? And what would it mean for our understanding of human evolution, consciousness, and God? 🔥 Expect big, unsettling questions: Could alien life be more advanced than us, and if so, would they see us as equals — or something far less? Would Christianity, Islam, and other religions collapse under the weight of extraterrestrial reality? Or would faiths around the world adapt alien existence into their narratives of creation and divine purpose? Richard Dawkins also delves into the Darwinian implications of alien evolution. If natural selection shaped us, how would it shape life on other planets? Could alien biology follow entirely new rules, or are there universal patterns to life itself? This conversation isn’t just about aliens. It’s about who we are, what we believe, and how fragile our worldviews really are when confronted with the possibility of intelligent life beyond Earth. 👉 Watch to the end for Dawkins’ surprising take on whether alien contact would unite humanity or divide us further, and why he believes science — not religion — offers the best framework for understanding what’s out there. Don’t miss this mind-expanding discussion with one of the most provocative intellectuals of our time. 🎥 Watch the full interview here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uF5miK73RCY #aliens #richarddawkins #atheism #extraterrestrial #lifeonmars #contact #science #religion #darwin Learn more about your ad choices.

Tilly Middlehurst - George Abaraonye's INSANE Reaction to Charlie Kirk DEATH
👉 Subscribe to Heretics Clips for more explosive interviews: https://www.youtube.com/@hereticsclips/videos In this electrifying Heretics Clips episode, Andrew Gold sits down with Tilly Middlehurst, the Cambridge student bizarrely swept into a storm of online misinformation after publicly debating Charlie Kirk. When false rumours about Kirk began circulating online, Tilly suddenly found herself targeted — not for anything she’d done, but for daring to criticise his rhetoric. And in the middle of the chaos, one reaction stood out: George Abaraonye’s explosive response, which turned an already surreal moment into a viral cultural flashpoint. Tilly breaks down exactly how this firestorm erupted, how George Abaraonye’s dramatic reaction reignited the rumour mill, and why so many people were eager to assign blame to anyone who challenged their political tribe — even when the narrative made no sense. Why did people rush to sensationalise a false story? Why did Tilly become a lightning rod for outrage? And what does George’s reaction reveal about today’s hyper-reactive political ecosystem? As the conversation deepens, Tilly explores the online witch-hunt she faced from both Right and Left. She describes the surreal moment when progressives turned on her simply for saying that celebrating a political opponent’s supposed death — even falsely — is morally wrong. Her honesty exposes the increasingly volatile climate of digital politics, where moral consistency often takes a back seat to tribal loyalty. Andrew and Tilly dig into the social dynamics behind pile-ons, the emotional incentives that drive viral outrage, and the dangerous feedback loops that turn misinformation into moral panic. Tilly also reflects on the pressures inside elite universities, where ideological conformity can be more suffocating than open political conflict. If you’re exhausted by scripted talking points and want a raw, unfiltered look at how misinformation spreads, why outrage is addictive, and how ordinary people become symbols in battles they never sought, this episode is essential viewing. 📺 Watch the full podcast here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QnoMSNSD5R0&t=12s #TillyMiddlehurst #GeorgeAbaraonye #CharlieKirk #HereticsClips #CultureWar #FreeSpeech #AndrewGold #PoliticalBacklash #OnlineOutrage Learn more about your ad choices.

Francis Foster - Why Netflix Will NEVER Cancel Ricky Gervais
Why hasn’t Netflix cancelled Ricky Gervais, even as cancel culture takes down everyone else? In this revealing episode of Heretics Clips, comedian Francis Foster joins Andrew Gold to unpack why Gervais remains untouchable — and what it says about power, comedy, and free speech in 2025. 👉 Subscribe to Heretics Clips for more fearless interviews and thought-provoking debates: https://www.youtube.com/@hereticsclips/videos Ricky Gervais has become one of the last comedians willing to mock sacred cows — from gender ideology to religion — yet Netflix keeps renewing his specials. Francis Foster, co-host of the hit podcast TRIGGERnometry, explains why that’s no accident. He argues that Gervais represents something Hollywood desperately needs: authenticity. In an era where most comedians fear backlash, Gervais’ refusal to apologise has made him both a cultural lightning rod and a commercial goldmine. Andrew Gold and Francis debate whether Gervais’ defiance is genuine bravery or smart branding — and whether even he could one day face the mob. Expect a fast, funny, and brutally honest conversation about: Why Netflix stands by Gervais when other platforms cave to outrage mobs. How his “anti-woke” reputation actually helps his global reach. The economics of controversy — and why cancel culture often fails. The double standards in comedy: why some jokes are “offensive” and others get applause. Whether comedians today are too afraid to tell the truth. Francis also shares his insider perspective on the state of British comedy — how club audiences differ from online mobs, and why younger comics are scared to take risks. Meanwhile, Andrew explores what Gervais’ success reveals about public appetite for authenticity, humour, and free speech. This is one of the most entertaining and insightful discussions yet on the intersection of comedy, censorship, and cultural hypocrisy.

Andrew Gold Debates Dr. Helen Webberley - Trans Isn't Progressive (It's MENTAL)
Andrew Gold sits down with Dr Helen Webberley for one of the most heated and provocative conversations ever featured on Heretics. In this explosive debate, Andrew challenges Webberley on the core question dividing the modern gender movement: is transgender ideology progressive — or is it rooted in mental distress that’s being misdiagnosed as identity? If you enjoy bold, unfiltered discussions that push back against mainstream narratives, make sure you subscribe to Heretics Clips: https://www.youtube.com/@hereticsclips/videos In this gripping exchange, Andrew confronts Dr Webberley — the controversial founder of GenderGP — on her beliefs about childhood transition, gender identity, medical pathways, and what she describes as the “affirmation model.” The conversation quickly becomes intense as Andrew questions whether transitioning is always the compassionate option, or whether it risks overlooking the underlying mental health issues so many people face. Webberley defends her clinical experience and argues that gender-affirming care saves lives, while Andrew presses her on rapid-onset dysphoria, detransitioners, puberty blockers, irreversible interventions and the growing list of clinicians who now say the system has gone too far. The debate cuts to the heart of the culture war: what is compassion, what is harm, and who gets to decide? This episode digs deep into the definitions of gender, identity and “progressivism,” with Andrew challenging whether the modern trans movement has become a form of ideology that discourages open discussion. Webberley pushes back, insisting that critics misunderstand trans people and misrepresent the science — while Andrew argues that real science requires scrutiny, not censorship. Expect sharp exchanges, uncomfortable questions and moments of real tension as the two clash over medicine, ethics and the limits of social tolerance. Whether you support the affirmation model, oppose medical transition for minors, or simply want to understand the debate without the noise of social media, this conversation offers rare clarity. Both Andrew and Webberley articulate strong, opposing worldviews — creating a discussion that is challenging, emotional and impossible to ignore. 🔥 Watch the full podcast here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Lh8SVtqpQI #TransDebate #GenderGP #HelenWebberley #AndrewGold #Heretics #CultureWar #Transitioning #Detransition #GenderIdentity #Debate Learn more about your ad choices.

Roy Greenslade - 'I SUPPORT the IRA'
In this gripping Heretics Clips episode, veteran journalist Roy Greenslade addresses one of the most controversial chapters of his career — the period in which his past writings and comments regarding the IRA ignited a fierce public backlash. For years, Greenslade was known as one of Britain’s most influential media commentators, but revelations about his views triggered intense debate about journalistic ethics, political transparency and the responsibilities of those shaping public discourse. In this conversation, Greenslade speaks with Andrew Gold about the context behind the statements that later caused such uproar. How did his perspective develop? What was he attempting to communicate at the time? And why did the reaction from the public and the press become so explosive? Greenslade offers rare insight into the pressures, conflicts and moral complexities that surrounded both the Northern Ireland conflict and the media landscape covering it. As Andrew Gold probes deeper, Greenslade reflects on the line between personal belief and professional duty — a line that many argue must remain absolutely clear. Should journalists declare their political positions? How does undisclosed ideology shape reporting? And what happens when private views collide with public roles? This episode also explores the wider repercussions of Greenslade’s past comments: the impact on his reputation, the debates about impartiality they reignited, and the uncomfortable questions they raised about the British media’s handling of the Troubles. Rather than sensationalism, the discussion offers context, introspection and critical analysis — creating a fuller picture of a controversy that continues to provoke discussion. Stay to the end for Greenslade’s candid reflections on regret, responsibility and what he believes the public should take away from the fallout. For viewers interested in media ethics, political journalism or the forces that shape public trust, this episode provides a rare level of honesty and depth. 📺 Watch the full podcast here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H09M0H5rmoo #RoyGreenslade #HereticsClips #BritishMedia #AndrewGold #UKJournalism #MediaEthics #NorthernIreland #JournalismControversy Learn more about your ad choices.

Connie Shaw - Free Speech Union SAVED Me From WOKE University
👉 Subscribe to Heretics Clips for more explosive interviews: https://www.youtube.com/@hereticsclips/videos 🔥 Leeds University has become ground zero for a shocking free speech scandal that exposes the creeping authoritarianism inside UK higher education. At the centre of it all is Connie Shaw, a former Leeds Student Radio presenter, who found herself accused of “bringing the station into disrepute” simply for interviewing comedy writer Graham Linehan — a man blacklisted by woke academia for questioning gender ideology. What followed was nothing short of a nightmare. Connie was dragged through a disciplinary process that felt more like a Stalinist show trial than a British university. She was banned from campus, subjected to re-education style demands, and treated as a pariah by lecturers and fellow students. 👉 Watch the full podcast here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zeLnRAhlb6M In this powerful conversation, Connie reveals: The most shocking question she faced during her disciplinary. How gender ideology has captured UK universities, from “gender expression funds” for binders and tuckers to professors policing thought and speech. The devastating social ostracism she endured, including friends warned not to be seen with her. How the Free Speech Union, led by Toby Young, stepped in at her darkest moment — and why she says they literally saved her life. But Connie’s ordeal is bigger than her personal story. It highlights how cancel culture, institutional capture, and ideological conformity are threatening the very foundations of open debate in Britain’s universities. When a student can be silenced and punished simply for talking to the “wrong” person, what does that say about the state of academic freedom? 👉 Stay tuned until the end for Connie’s surprising inspirations, her future plans, and her rallying cry to anyone who values free speech and refuses to be silenced. This is not just about one student. It’s about whether free expression still has a place in modern Britain. #ConnieShaw #FreeSpeechUnion #LeedsUniversity #GrahamLinehan #CancelCulture #AcademicFreedom #Woke Learn more about your ad choices.

Anneke Lucas - EXPOSING the ELITE'S UNTHINKABLE Sadistic Rituals
Anneke Lucas joins Andrew Gold on Heretics for one of the most disturbing and eye-opening conversations we have ever hosted — a deep dive into her harrowing childhood experiences inside what she describes as an elite European network that exploited vulnerable children behind closed doors. Before we begin, make sure you subscribe to Heretics Clips for more investigations and powerful interviews: https://www.youtube.com/@hereticsclips/videos In this gripping interview, Anneke recounts the hidden world she says she was pulled into as a young girl — a world involving powerful individuals whose public reputations often masked unimaginable cruelty. Without sensationalising or showing graphic detail, Anneke explains the psychological manipulation, the secrecy, and the systematic grooming that kept children silent and the network protected. Her bravery in speaking out provides a rare, human perspective on an otherwise inaccessible world — and raises uncomfortable questions about how far influence and power can go when no one is watching. Andrew asks Anneke to break down the structures that allowed this alleged network to exist, how certain high-status individuals were able to operate with impunity, and why so many victims feel unable to come forward. Anneke also explores the emotional aftermath: the trauma, the decades-long recovery process, and how she rebuilt her life after surviving what she describes as organised abuse carried out by the elite of Belgian society. This conversation is not only about the past — it’s about the present-day systems that fail children, the psychological tactics used by abusers, and the societal blind spots that allow harmful behaviour to continue unchecked. Anneke shares the red flags the public often misses, the mechanisms that shield offenders, and why it is so difficult for survivors to be believed when their stories implicate highly influential people. Despite the darkness of her experiences, Anneke’s message is ultimately one of resilience. She discusses the therapeutic tools that helped her heal, the importance of giving survivors a voice, and her belief that transparency and awareness are the only ways to prevent future exploitation. 🔥 Watch the full, unfiltered conversation here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1wc4AcaKw-4 #AnnekeLucas #SurvivorStories #ElitePower #Heretics #AndrewGold #HiddenNetworks #TraumaRecovery #Psychology Learn more about your ad choices.

It was the cover-up. In this explosive interview, broadcaster and commentator Mark Dolan pulls back the curtain on how the establishment, the media, and the BBC scrambled to protect one of their own. 👉 Watch the full podcast here: Mark Dolan, best known for hosting Channel 4’s cult hit Balls of Steel and now a leading voice on GB News, joins us to ask the questions the mainstream won’t touch. Why did it take so long for the truth about Huw Edwards to surface? What role did the BBC’s culture of secrecy play? And how does this tie into a broader pattern of elite institutions shielding their insiders while ordinary people are left in the dark? In this unfiltered conversation, Mark exposes: The timeline of the Huw Edwards revelations and why the delays mattered. How media spin and silence shaped public perception. The way Britain’s institutions repeatedly put reputation over accountability. What the cover-up reveals about deeper cultural rot at the BBC and beyond. But this isn’t just about one man. Mark Dolan explains how the Edwards affair is a symptom of something bigger — from crumbling public trust in legacy media to the way woke ideology and establishment arrogance combine to shut down dissent. This is a story that raises uncomfortable but necessary questions: Who guards the guardians? Who holds the media elite accountable when they cross the line? And how many other cover-ups never see the light of day? Mark Dolan doesn’t mince words. His sharp wit and fearless analysis make this one of the most compelling breakdowns of the Huw Edwards saga you’ll find online. 👉 Stay until the end as Mark shares his surprising take on what Britain must do to restore trust — and why it starts with ordinary people refusing to be gaslit. #HuwEdwards #BBCScandal #MarkDolan #CancelCulture #GBNews #MediaBias #HereticsClips Learn more about your ad choices.

Richard Grannon & Andrew Gold - MASS ILLUSION: The Paralells Between Excorcisms and Trans
👉 Subscribe to Heretics Clips for more unfiltered conversations: https://www.youtube.com/@hereticsclips/videos What do exorcisms and the trans movement have in common? In this mind-bending conversation, Richard Grannon, narcissism expert and social commentator, challenges journalist Andrew Gold to explore the eerie parallels between religious rituals of the past and the identity battles of today. Across history, societies have created rituals, beliefs, and taboos that unite people — but also divide them. From the medieval obsession with casting out demons to the modern fixation on gender ideology, are we simply witnessing new expressions of the same mass illusion? In this gripping exchange, you’ll hear: Why exorcisms and gender identity debates share striking similarities in psychology and ritual. How groupthink and cult-like behaviour are driving today’s culture wars. The dangers of unquestioned dogma, whether it comes from the church or from woke ideology. Why so many intelligent people fall into collective illusions — and what that means for the future of the West. The uncomfortable truths about identity, belonging, and the price of dissent. Andrew Gold pushes back, questioning whether these comparisons go too far, while Grannon insists the patterns of mass delusion remain the same. Together, they dissect one of the most controversial cultural flashpoints of our time. 🔥 Watch the full podcast here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DAlFt4QnWfo&t=2290s Are we witnessing a modern-day version of spiritual possession, only rebranded for the 21st century? Could the fight over gender identity be less about individual rights and more about society’s craving for control and conformity? And what happens when people start to wake up from the illusion? This is not just an interview — it’s a confrontation with ideas most are too afraid to touch.

Dr. Philip Kiszely - WOKE Left: Why Mothin Ali is a HERO & Tommy Robinson is a VILLAN
👉 Subscribe now to Heretics Clips for the truth the mainstream refuses to tell you: https://www.youtube.com/@hereticsclips/videos Why is the woke Left so desperate to paint Mothin Ali as a saint — while branding Tommy Robinson the ultimate villain? The hypocrisy is staggering, and in this explosive conversation, Dr. Philip Kiszely tears apart the myths, the propaganda, and the dangerous double standards driving Britain’s culture wars. Dr. Kiszely, a fearless lecturer at Leeds University and Senior Fellow at the New Culture Forum, exposes how woke activists, media elites, and university lecturers rewrite reality to fit their ideology. Some voices get elevated as “heroes” — no matter how flawed. Others are demonised into silence, no matter how valid their warnings may be. 🔥 Inside this episode: Why woke elites cheer for Mothin Ali as a progressive champion. The real reasons Tommy Robinson is relentlessly vilified. How identity politics shields some from criticism while others are destroyed. The chilling role of universities and media in enforcing ideological conformity. And here’s the bombshell: Dr. Kiszely argues that this isn’t just about two men.

Suella Braverman - Tory MP REVEALS the Party's ULTIMATE Betrayal to the British People
Former Home Secretary Suella Braverman joins Andrew Gold on Heretics for one of the most explosive and revealing political interviews of the year. In this unfiltered conversation, Suella exposes what she calls the ultimate betrayal of the British people — how the Conservative Party abandoned its promises on immigration, national identity, and free speech, and lost the trust of the voters who put them in power. 👉 Subscribe to Heretics Clips for more fearless, unfiltered interviews: https://www.youtube.com/@hereticsclips/videos Has the Conservative Party completely lost its way? Suella Braverman — once seen as the future of the Tory movement — lifts the lid on the internal divisions, weak leadership, and ideological drift that she says have left Britain unrecognisable. From Rishi Sunak’s broken pledges to bureaucratic sabotage behind the scenes, Suella argues that the party has chosen popularity over principles and Westminster comfort over conviction. 💬 “We promised control — instead, we’ve surrendered.” 💬 “The betrayal wasn’t a mistake. It was a choice.” 💬 “Voters were misled — and they deserve the truth.” In this gripping interview, Suella reveals the real battles happening inside Downing Street and the civil service — and why even senior ministers were too afraid to challenge the status quo. She discusses how political cowardice, media pressure, and the rise of “woke orthodoxy” have silenced honest debate on immigration, law and order, and British values. Andrew Gold pushes Suella to answer whether the Tory Party can ever rebuild trust, or if it’s too late. Her answers are brutally candid, offering a rare insider’s view of a political system more focused on spin than substance. This isn’t just another political interview — it’s a moment of reckoning for the Conservative Party and the country it was meant to serve. Whether you agree or not, Suella’s revelations will leave you questioning what the Tories really stand for today. 🔥 Topics Include: • The Tory Party’s betrayal of its voters • Immigration, identity & political cowardice • What went wrong inside government • Free speech vs party discipline • How Westminster lost touch with real Britain • Can the Conservatives ever recover trust? #HereticsPodcast #SuellaBraverman #AndrewGold #UKPolitics #ConservativeParty #ToryBetrayal #ImmigrationCrisis #BritishValues #FreeSpeech #HereticsClips #Britain2025 #PoliticalInterview Learn more about your ad choices.

Tommy Robinson - THIS is Why the UAE Bans RADICAL Islamists
Subscribe to Heretics Clips for more explosive, unfiltered conversations that dig into the ideologies, power struggles and geopolitical tensions shaping today’s world — especially interviews that mainstream platforms won’t touch. https://www.youtube.com/@hereticsclips/videos In this gripping interview, Andrew Gold sits down with Tommy Robinson for one of their most revealing and controversial conversations yet — diving deep into why the UAE bans radical Islamists, what Tommy believes the West is getting dangerously wrong, and how extremist networks operate across borders. Tommy breaks down why the United Arab Emirates has taken such a firm stance against certain Islamist groups, explaining the ideology the UAE considers destabilising — and why he argues Western governments refuse to act with the same clarity. He lays out the warning signs he thinks Britain is ignoring, the organisations banned in the UAE, and the cultural, political and financial influence that he claims fuels their reach. Throughout the conversation, Tommy reveals: What the UAE defines as “radical Islamism” and why they act decisively Why he believes the UK is years behind in recognising extremist infrastructure How ideology spreads through funding pipelines, lobbying and community pressure Why he thinks free speech and national identity are central to resisting radicalisation What he predicts will happen if Britain continues to avoid difficult conversations This isn’t a soft interview. Andrew challenges Tommy repeatedly, pushing him for specifics, questioning his evidence, and tackling the controversies that have followed him for years. The result is a tense, detailed and high-stakes exchange that reveals the worldview of one of Britain’s most polarising voices. Whether you agree with Tommy or strongly disagree, this episode shines a harsh light on the fault lines between security and freedom, culture and ideology, and fear and political correctness. If you want to understand why the UAE acts so aggressively, and why Tommy thinks the UK should pay attention, this is essential viewing.

Sonia Poulton - Margaret Thatcher KNEW This About Jimmy Savile
What did Margaret Thatcher really know about Jimmy Savile — and how deep did his connections to power truly run? In this explosive Heretics episode, journalist Sonia Poulton joins Andrew Gold to expose shocking evidence and long-ignored questions surrounding one of Britain’s darkest scandals. 👉 Subscribe to Heretics Clips for more fearless, unfiltered conversations: https://www.youtube.com/@hereticsclips/videos Sonia Poulton has spent years investigating how Jimmy Savile operated with impunity at the heart of Britain’s establishment — from the BBC to Downing Street. In this powerful interview, she reveals what she’s discovered about Savile’s extraordinary access to politicians, royals, and celebrities, and why she believes Margaret Thatcher was aware of far more than she ever admitted publicly. As Sonia explains, Savile’s relationship with Thatcher went beyond simple charity appearances or photo ops. He dined at Chequers, corresponded with her privately, and was awarded a knighthood despite widespread rumours of abuse. How could so many warnings have been ignored? Was Savile protected because of who he knew — or because of what he knew? In a gripping, no-holds-barred discussion, Sonia and Andrew explore the broader implications of this story: How Britain’s political and media elite created a culture of protection around predators. Why Savile’s influence stretched across the BBC, the NHS, and Westminster. What Sonia uncovered in government correspondence and media archives that suggests Thatcher’s office had concerns — yet still pushed through his honours. And why the establishment continues to bury uncomfortable truths, even decades after Savile’s crimes were exposed. This is not just about Savile — it’s about power, complicity, and the corruption of institutions that claimed to protect the public. Sonia Poulton’s revelations raise urgent questions about who else knew, who looked the other way, and whether anything has really changed in Britain’s corridors of power. If you thought the Savile story was over, think again. This episode will leave you questioning everything you thought you knew about one of Britain’s most shocking cover-ups. 🎧 Watch the full Heretics episode here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B4v7AnxCNxA&t=3s #SoniaPoulton #JimmySavile #MargaretThatcher #BBC #Heretics #AndrewGold #BritishPolitics #CoverUp #MediaCorruption #PoliticalScandal #BritishHistory #TruthTeller #InvestigativeJournalism #HereticsClips Learn more about your ad choices.

Charles Asher Smith - Zohran Mamdani’s Rise: The Movement Reshaping New York
Andrew Gold sits down with Charles Asher Small, one of the world’s leading experts on extremism and ideological movements, to explore how figures like Zohran Mamdani have become central to a political shift transforming parts of New York. Small argues that Mamdani’s rise is not an isolated story—but part of a much broader ideological project reaching back nearly a century. Subscribe to Heretics Clips for more fearless, in-depth conversations: https://www.youtube.com/@hereticsclips/videos In this gripping conversation, Small explains how long-term, strategic ideological movements have gradually gained influence across Western institutions—shaping politics, culture, academic spaces, and public debate. He argues that certain networks, originally linked to the Muslim Brotherhood’s intellectual legacy, have been remarkably effective at embedding themselves into the fabric of Western political discourse over several decades. Small also examines how activists, politicians, and ideological groups have formed powerful alliances within American progressive spaces, helping propel voices like Zohran Mamdani to prominence. Without making defamatory or unverified claims, Small describes how a new ideological ecosystem has emerged—one that blends anti-imperialist rhetoric, identity-based politics, and radical critiques of Western institutions. He also discusses the influence of Qatar’s soft-power outreach, which he argues has shaped academic and cultural conversations in the West, subtly shifting narratives around geopolitics, ideology, and identity. Small places this within a larger framework he calls the “Red–Green Coalition”—a convergence of radical left movements and Islamist ideological actors who share a desire to challenge traditional Western structures. In this episode, we explore: How ideological movements gain footholds in universities, NGOs, media, and politics Why some Middle Eastern nations have banned the Muslim Brotherhood Whether the West is “sleepwalking through a revolution” The implications of the UK’s 40,000-person jihadist watchlist How ideological alliances shape policy debates in New York and beyond Whether certain extremist interpretations of political Islam clash with liberal democratic values How ordinary Muslims often suffer most under extremist ideologies Throughout the conversation, Small is emphatic: the issue is ideology—not ordinary Muslim communities, who are overwhelmingly peaceful and want nothing to do with extremism. This is a high-stakes, thought-provoking exploration of modern political movements, ideological influence, and the shifting landscape of Western democracy.
