This week Harriet and Producer Martin introduce their new feature, Column Of The Week, where they speak to an eminent British newspaper columnist about their brilliant, brilliant work. This week, it's the Telegraph's Allison Pearson, who talks us through her article, "JD Vance’s courageous lecture on migration has shamed our gutless elites”. We also welcome DOGE's Ethan Chablowski back to the show, to explain how his takeover of the Federal Aviation Authority is going, and Eshaan Akbar asks a question for his Hot & Spicy Takeaway of the Week that turns out to be [REDACTED].

If you enjoy the show and fancy early, ad-free episodes, full videos of every segment, bonus podcasts and exclusive video content, as well as the nice warm feeling you get from supporting the arts, pop over to Patreon.com/NonCensored and sign up.
