February 05, 2025 337: ‘I became a pariah in corporate America’ | Jennifer Sey
This is the audio from a video we have just published on our YouTube channel – an interview with Jennifer Sey. To make sure you never miss great content like this, subscribe to our channel: https://www.youtube.com/@spiked

Jennifer Sey – former US national-champion gymnast and brand president at Levi’s – was on her way to the top of the corporate ladder when her career was brutally cut short. For speaking out against Covid school closures, she was branded a heretic, smeared as a bigot, and Levi’s demanded her silence. Here, she gives her inside story of the great ‘awokening’ of corporate America, and explains why the cancel culture that forced her out may now finally be in retreat. Plus, she discusses her new venture, XX-XY Athletics, and its battle to keep men out of women’s sports.

January 07, 2025 330: An interview with Charlie Hebdo’s Gérard Biard
This is the audio from a video we have just published on our YouTube channel – an interview with Gérard Biard. To make sure you never miss great content like this, subscribe to our channel: https://www.youtube.com/@spiked

On 7 January 2015, two Islamist terrorists, armed with Kalashnikovs, burst into the offices of Charlie Hebdo. 12 people were murdered, eight of them writers and cartoonists at the left-wing, satirical newspaper. Charlie’s supposed crime? It had published cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad. The massacre sparked outpourings of solidarity, but also a cowardly, censorious backlash. Many decried the killings, but decried Charlie’s supposed ‘provocations’, too. 10 years on from the massacre, spiked went to Paris to meet with Gérard Biard, Charlie’s editor-in-chief. We discussed the attack, the fight for free speech and the crucial importance of courage.
