For this week's show, Harriet and Producer Martin speak to Ethan Chablowski, one of Elon Musk’s small team of bright young men who are making the American government more efficient, about why privacy is cringe and free speech is lit. They also hear from Richard Burgon MP about his reinstatement to the Labour benches now that he acknowledges that he was wrong to do the right thing and what sort of animal Keir Starmer would be, and Eshaan Akbar 'phones it in' with a Hot & Spicy Takeaway of the Week about schools banning mobiles.
