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.

Mark Dolan - How the Huw Edwards COVER-UP Shook Britain
👉 Don’t miss hard-hitting interviews you won’t find anywhere else — subscribe now to Heretics Clips: https://www.youtube.com/@hereticsclips/videos 🔥 When the Huw Edwards scandal broke, the British public was stunned — but the biggest shock wasn’t the allegations themselves. 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. It’s about the systematic destruction of free speech and the creation of a society where you’re either a “hero” for toeing the woke line — or a “villain” for daring to resist. This is the most controversial conversation yet on Heretics Clips. Prepare to have your assumptions shattered. Why do progressives idolise some figures while treating others as public enemies? What does this say about our culture, our politics, and the future of truth itself? 👉 Stay until the end for Dr. Kiszely’s chilling warning about where this culture war is heading — and why refusing to bow to woke ideology might make YOU their next “villain.” 🎥 Watch the full podcast here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Byld5huthwc #immigration #academicstudy #politics #woke #culturewars #freeexpression #hereticsclips #mothinali #tommyrobinson #gbnews #cancelculture #antiwoke Learn more about your ad choices.

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.

In this challenging exchange, Andrew asks the question that has divided politics, media and medicine for years: “What is a woman?” The conversation becomes even more gripping when Dr Webberley — founder of GenderGP and one of the most controversial figures in the gender-medicine world — offers answers that many viewers will find surprising, unsettling, or difficult to watch. Subscribe to Heretics Clips: https://www.youtube.com/@hereticsclips/videos This clip captures a moment of real tension between Andrew Gold’s direct, probing questions and Dr Webberley’s insistence on her own definitions, beliefs and interpretations of sex, gender and identity. With millions of people worldwide searching for clarity in this debate, this exchange highlights the deep philosophical divide shaping the modern gender conversation. Dr Webberley explains how she believes gender identity should be understood in society, why she rejects traditional definitions of womanhood, and why she argues that lived experience takes precedence over biology.

The result is a discussion that is emotionally charged, intellectually demanding, and guaranteed to provoke thought and debate. This conversation is not about shouting or point-scoring — it’s about exposing the core disagreement at the heart of Western culture right now.

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.

Carl Benjamin - 'Equality is BAD'
Is equality always a good thing? Or could it actually be tearing society apart? In this thought-provoking interview, Carl Benjamin — better known online as Sargon of Akkad — argues why the pursuit of equality has dangerous consequences for liberty, culture, and civilisation itself. For more fearless, unfiltered discussions that challenge political dogma, subscribe here: https://www.youtube.com/@hereticsclips/videos Carl Benjamin doesn’t shy away from controversy. He describes himself as “as far-right as it gets,” but what does that really mean? Is it just a label, or does it represent a deeper philosophy about human nature, freedom, and responsibility? In this conversation, he dismantles the simplistic Left vs. Right framing and asks the harder questions: What is liberty, really? Is the obsession with equality eroding merit and excellence? And is the modern “woke” movement pushing us toward authoritarianism disguised as compassion? Benjamin takes us into the nuts and bolts of political philosophy, exploring ideas that most mainstream outlets refuse to touch. He challenges the dominant narrative by examining the foundations of liberalism, conservatism, and the dangers of unchecked egalitarianism. Whether you see him as a provocateur, philosopher, or political dissenter, there’s no denying Carl Benjamin has shaped online debates for over a decade. Known globally under his moniker Sargon of Akkad, he built a reputation as a sharp critic of progressive ideology and a defender of free speech. Love him or hate him, his perspective forces you to confront uncomfortable truths about the direction Western societies are heading. This conversation isn’t about soundbites or slogans. It’s about asking whether equality, as it’s currently understood, is sustainable — or whether it risks destroying the very freedoms it claims to protect. Benjamin’s bold claim that “equality is bad” is not just a provocation; it’s an invitation to rethink one of the most sacred modern ideals. 👉 Watch the full podcast here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UPXkjNAQj20 👉 Subscribe to Heretics Clips for more interviews that go beyond the surface and dive into the philosophies shaping our world. #CarlBenjamin #Equality #SargonOfAkkad #Woke #Liberalism #HereticsClips Learn more about your ad choices.

Internal BBC Politics: Tim Davie LOST Fight Against WOKE Mob
Subscribe to Heretics Clips for more explosive media exposés, political deep dives and insider interviews revealing what really happens inside Britain’s most powerful institutions. https://www.youtube.com/@hereticsclips/videos In this gripping and hard-hitting interview, Camilla Tominey joins Andrew Gold to unpack the internal culture war that has been tearing the BBC apart — and to explain exactly how Tim Davie lost the fight against the “woke” faction inside the corporation. As Director-General, Davie arrived promising impartiality, reform and a reset of BBC culture. But, as Camilla reveals, he found himself facing an entrenched ideological bloc determined to resist change at every turn. Camilla takes us behind closed doors at Broadcasting House, revealing the internal rebellions, newsroom tensions and ideological battles that defined Davie’s time in charge. She explains why Davie’s attempts to restore political balance were met with hostility, how senior BBC staff quietly undermined his agenda, and why the corporation’s internal culture ultimately proved too powerful for him to shift. In this revealing conversation, Camilla and Andrew explore: How Tim Davie tried — and failed — to tackle the BBC’s growing ideological bias Why a vocal internal faction resisted his push for impartiality The internal battles, clashes and walkouts the public never saw Which departments were most entrenched in progressive activism How Davie’s authority eroded as staff pushed back against his reforms Why his leadership collapsed — and what it means for the future of the BBC Camilla details the “silent war” inside the organisation: editors refusing guidance, journalists publicly criticising management, and producers shaping content through their own worldview. She argues that Davie underestimated the scale of the ideological takeover — a takeover that left him increasingly isolated, even at the top of the BBC. This interview exposes the tension between the BBC’s public promises of neutrality and the internal activism shaping its output. Camilla explains why attempts at reform repeatedly failed, how staff networks and internal pressure groups influenced editorial decisions, and why the corporation now faces a crisis of trust unlike anything in its history. Whether you support Davie’s attempted reforms or believe the BBC should embrace progressive activism, this conversation lays bare the internal power struggle that defined his tenure. It’s a rare insider look at a broadcaster fighting with itself — and a Director-General who discovered too late that he was outnumbered.

Founder Ray Kelvin - The 'Hug Culture' Scandal That RUINED Ted Baker
Ray Kelvin, the elusive founder of Ted Baker, breaks his silence on the ‘hug culture’ scandal that shook the British fashion world and ultimately destroyed his career. In this gripping conversation with Andrew Gold, Kelvin finally gives his own account of the controversy that dominated headlines, sparked public outrage, and forced him out of the company he built. If you enjoy hard-hitting interviews that cut through media narratives, make sure you subscribe to Heretics Clips: https://www.youtube.com/@hereticsclips/videos In this explosive interview, Kelvin reveals what really happened behind the scenes at Ted Baker when accusations of inappropriate “hug culture” practices surfaced — allegations that brought intense scrutiny and a corporate investigation that left the public divided. Kelvin explains where the idea of “hugging” as part of the Ted Baker workplace ethos came from, how it grew into a defining part of the company’s culture, and why it spiralled into one of the most high-profile scandals in modern British business. For the first time, Kelvin addresses the claims head-on: the staff complaints, the media frenzy, the pressure from the board, and the fallout that cost him his reputation. He gives a candid and emotional account of what it felt like to watch decades of work unravel almost overnight, and why he believes key context and truth were lost amid the headlines. Andrew pushes him on the critical questions: Was the culture inappropriate? Was the reaction fair? Did Kelvin cross a line — or was he the victim of a media narrative that got out of control? Beyond the scandal, Kelvin discusses the origins of Ted Baker, the eccentric leadership style that built an international fashion powerhouse, and the internal pressures of running a billion-pound brand. He reveals the personal mistakes, business tensions, and misunderstood behaviours that shaped the company — and the downfall. This conversation is raw, revealing, and often surprising. Whether you see Kelvin as a misunderstood creative or the architect of a toxic culture, his insider account is essential to understanding the full story behind the scandal that reshaped Ted Baker forever. 🔥 Watch the full podcast here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Wo8N2m8a4I #RayKelvin #TedBaker #HugCulture #BusinessScandal #Heretics #AndrewGold #BritishFashion #WorkplaceCulture #Leadership #Controversy Learn more about your ad choices.

Suella Braverman - PROOF Multiculturalism Has FAILED in Britain
Former Home Secretary Suella Braverman sits down with Andrew Gold on Heretics for one of her most candid and explosive interviews yet. In this powerful conversation, Suella lays out her case that multiculturalism has failed in Britain, arguing that decades of weak leadership, open borders, and political correctness have eroded British values and national unity. 👉 Subscribe to Heretics Clips for more fearless, unfiltered interviews: https://www.youtube.com/@hereticsclips/videos What went wrong with Britain’s multicultural experiment? Suella Braverman — one of the most outspoken figures in British politics — explains why she believes the system is breaking down, and what it will take to restore a shared sense of identity. From mass immigration and community segregation to rising extremism and censorship, she argues that Britain’s leaders have been too afraid to tell the truth — and that the country is now paying the price. 💬 “Multiculturalism has failed — not because of diversity, but because of division.” 💬 “We’ve lost the confidence to defend British values.” 💬 “If you refuse to integrate, you create parallel societies.” Andrew Gold challenges Suella on the controversies that have defined her career — from her immigration policies and outspoken speeches to her clashes with media elites and activists. She defends her stance as common sense over ideology, insisting that protecting borders, culture, and free speech isn’t racism — it’s realism. This episode goes beyond headlines to reveal the human and political motivations behind one of Britain’s most polarising politicians. Whether you agree or not, Suella’s arguments force an uncomfortable question: Can Britain survive if it refuses to defend its own identity? 🔥 Topics Include: • Why multiculturalism is failing in the UK • Immigration, integration & national identity • The erosion of British values • Free speech, censorship & cancel culture • Media hypocrisy & political cowardice • What it means to be British in 2025 • Can the UK still unite a divided population? #HereticsPodcast #SuellaBraverman #AndrewGold #Multiculturalism #BritishPolitics #FreeSpeech #ImmigrationCrisis #CancelCulture #UKPodcast #CultureWar #HereticsClips #Britain2025 #PoliticalInterview Learn more about your ad choices.

Tommy Robinson - Inside the Hamas Billionaire's Charity SCAM Operation
What if the charities you thought were helping people were actually funding terror? In this explosive interview, Tommy Robinson pulls back the curtain on the billionaire-backed Hamas charity scam that few dare to talk about. He exposes the networks, the corruption, and the shocking flow of money that fuels extremism under the guise of humanitarian work. For more fearless conversations that reveal what the mainstream media won’t, subscribe here: https://www.youtube.com/@hereticsclips/videos Robinson has always been painted as one of Britain’s most controversial figures. For years, he was branded “the face of racism.” Yet today, a remarkable reappraisal is underway. Intellectual heavyweights like Douglas Murray and Jordan Peterson have begun acknowledging his role in raising questions others were too afraid to ask. Could it be that the man dismissed as a pariah has been uncovering truths the establishment wanted buried? In this rare sit-down, filmed at his hidden location abroad, Robinson lays out his case against the global charity networks linked to Hamas. He explains how billions in donations are siphoned into political and militant agendas, while the public is kept in the dark. The revelations raise disturbing questions: How deep does the deception go? Why are Western governments and institutions looking the other way? And how many ordinary people are unknowingly funding extremism through “charitable” giving? This isn’t just about money — it’s about power, influence, and the future of free societies. Robinson connects the dots between charity scams, radical Islam, immigration, and state complicity, painting a picture that is as unsettling as it is urgent. Whether you agree with him or not, Robinson’s unfiltered perspective forces you to confront uncomfortable realities. If his claims are true, the public is being lied to on a massive scale — and the consequences could shape the future of Europe and beyond. 👉 Watch the full podcast here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eiBsZErTk7Y&t=4s 👉 Subscribe to Heretics Clips and hit the bell for more raw, unflinching interviews that go where others won’t. #TommyRobinson #Hamas #CharityScam #Islam #Immigration #AntiWoke #HereticsClips Learn more about your ad choices.

Charles Asher Small - How Qatar is Using $1 TRILLION to SECRETLY Destroy the WEST
In one of the most urgent and eye-opening interviews on Heretics Clips, Andrew Gold speaks with Dr. Charles Asher Small — a leading global expert on extremism — to reveal how Qatar’s unprecedented $1 trillion influence strategy is reshaping Western institutions, destabilising democracies, and empowering ideological movements that openly oppose liberal values. If you want more hard-hitting conversations like this, make sure you subscribe to Heretics Clips: https://www.youtube.com/@hereticsclips/videos Dr. Small lays out a sweeping 50-year warning: that the ideological project rooted in the Muslim Brotherhood’s early strategy has now reached a critical midpoint. According to him, the West is facing a long-term soft-power campaign driven by a mixture of political influence, financial investments, cultural outreach, and elite partnerships — all of which have gone largely unchallenged. Qatar, he argues, has become the single most powerful force funding and shaping these networks, from major universities to media platforms to political institutions. This episode exposes how influence operations work in practice: not through dramatic takeovers, but through incremental cultural and institutional shifts that policymakers often fail to recognise. Dr. Small explains how what he calls the “Red-Green Alliance” — a convergence of radical left movements and Islamist ideological groups — has gained ground by infiltrating academic spaces, activist networks, and public discourse, often with the help of Western leaders who underestimate the long-term consequences. Andrew pushes Dr. Small on tough questions, including whether the West is “sleepwalking” into a generational ideological battle, why countries like Jordan and the UAE have taken a harder line against the Muslim Brotherhood, and what it means when the UK reportedly has 40,000 individuals on its terrorism watchlist. They also explore the human consequences: the threats to women’s rights, LGBTQ+ freedoms, religious minorities, and democratic institutions if extremist ideologies gain further legitimacy. Throughout the conversation, Dr. Small stresses that the vast majority of Muslims are peaceful, ordinary citizens — and that the issue is ideological extremism, not communities. His argument is not about division, but about recognising political movements that exploit Western openness to undermine Western freedoms. This is a gripping and essential discussion for anyone concerned about security, geopolitics, or the future of democratic societies. 🔥 Watch the full podcast here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SWpJKSqA-FE #Qatar #CharlesAsherSmall #Heretics #AndrewGold #MuslimBrotherhood #Extremism #Geopolitics #RedGreenAlliance #WesternDemocracy #InfluenceOperations Learn more about your ad choices.

Calvin Robinson - Jordan Peterson's Road to Finding GOD
👉 Subscribe to Heretics Clips for more unfiltered conversations: https://www.youtube.com/@hereticsclips/videos Jordan Peterson has spent years wrestling with questions of meaning, faith, and morality. But is his journey leading him to God? In this gripping conversation, Father Calvin Robinson — conservative commentator, Anglican priest, and unapologetic culture warrior — unpacks Peterson’s evolving relationship with Christianity, why it matters for the West, and what it says about our spiritual crisis today. For decades, Peterson has been the intellectual face of psychology, philosophy, and self-help. Yet behind the lectures on responsibility and truth lies a deeper tension: does the modern world need God to hold society together? Calvin Robinson believes yes — and he’s not afraid to say why. This discussion digs into the biggest questions of our time: Why Jordan Peterson struggles openly with belief in God. How the collapse of Christianity left a dangerous vacuum in Western society. Why Father Calvin Robinson thinks woke culture and Islam have rushed in to fill the void. Whether Peterson’s “biblical lectures” are a sign he’s inching closer to faith. Can an atheist interviewer and a priest find common ground on truth, morality, and meaning? The cultural stakes couldn’t be higher. Is Western civilisation doomed without a return to Christianity? Is woke ideology really becoming the new state religion? And if Jordan Peterson himself finds God, what would that mean for millions of his followers worldwide? Robinson argues that Peterson’s intellectual honesty — his refusal to dismiss religion outright — has brought him closer to God than he may realise. But can a man of reason become a man of faith? Or is Peterson destined to remain caught in the middle? 🔥 Watch the full podcast here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4QfB_dkh9RY If you’re ready for a raw, no-nonsense exploration of God, culture, and the future of the West, this interview will challenge everything you think you know. #heretics #calvinrobinson #jordanpeterson #findinggod #wokeculture #christianity #atheism #culturewars #cancelculture #anglicanpriest Learn more about your ad choices.

Alex Armstrong - A FALLEN Genius: The WOKE Decline of Armando Iannucci
Once hailed as a comedy genius, Armando Iannucci helped define British satire with shows like The Thick of It and The Day Today. But what happened to that razor-sharp edge? In this provocative Heretics conversation, Alex Armstrong joins Andrew Gold to explore what he calls the “woke decline” of one of Britain’s most brilliant minds — and what it says about the death of daring comedy in modern Britain. 👉 Subscribe to Heretics Clips for more fearless, unfiltered conversations: https://www.youtube.com/@hereticsclips/videos For decades, Armando Iannucci stood as the king of political comedy — skewering hypocrisy, mocking power, and giving us some of the smartest satire ever written. But as Alex and Andrew discuss, something has changed. The once fearless critic of political nonsense now seems to have joined the very establishment he once mocked. Alex argues that the creative spirit behind Iannucci’s early work — anarchic, witty, subversive — has been replaced by a cautious, conformist tone that panders to the cultural elite. What happened to comedy that challenged everyone? Has the industry become so consumed by moral policing and fear of offence that even its best minds are self-censoring? The discussion dives deep into how “woke culture” has infected British entertainment — from BBC comedy rooms to writers’ rooms across the industry — turning once bold artists into moral messengers. Andrew and Alex explore whether today’s comedians are even allowed to tell the truth anymore, and why audiences are starving for the kind of fearless humour that made Iannucci a household name. Expect sharp insight, biting commentary, and moments of uncomfortable truth as Alex Armstrong and Andrew Gold unpack the fall of Britain’s most influential satirist — and what that fall tells us about a creative culture that’s forgotten how to laugh at itself. 🎧 Watch the full Heretics episode here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=492bRl_XS-U&t=3953s #AlexArmstrong #ArmandoIannucci #Heretics #AndrewGold #BritishComedy #WokeCulture #Satire #BBC #FreeSpeech #CultureWars #ComedyDecline #UKEntertainment #MediaCensorship #HereticsClips Learn more about your ad choices.
