I accept we have a blind spot as non-religious people, but your critique is not fair. Here's the transcript. The singing is about watching football. Church is not "reduced" to gossip. All N is saying is that "often" people revelled in "a moment of congregation" and *maybe* a gossip and a cuppa. 1/2

Putting this together was actually a HUGE amount of fun.

Feel free to share it - here or on whatever platform and with whichever friend or family member you think would enjoy our vibe and the gorgeous community we have become.

This seems such a weird criticism. It feels bad faith. But I would be grateful for listeners' views - especially women's sense of our tone. A

Apologies, Pete. It was some stupid mock up that got through because I took my eye off the ball yesterday, instead of this, which should have been the visual. I have corrected it now, although it will take an hour to propagate across all services. A x

This is the shallow sensationalising I was talking about in the podcast. Zero context, just tabloid OMG OMG OMG framing. From The Times ffs

GBP was worth 1.2269 USD at the open and 1.2208 at the close.

UK 30yr bond rate was 5.412% first thing and is 5.410% now. 10-yr gilts tiny movement other way.

I'm not gonna lie, this is quite a bit ahead of where we thought we would be six months in...

I have. Twice. I could not be prouder of that conversation. Sorry. It is actually a deliberate style shift and maybe it will take a bit of getting used to, but the point is precisely that I have no interest in facilitating, but in discussing. A x

I am just baffled. Grateful for your feedback, but baffled. Because it is, quite literally, the opposite to what everyone else moved to comment seems to have received. Which leaves me utterly unable to reflect on what behaviour I should consider changing, going forward. Here is a TINY sample. A x

Name one other indie politics pod, run by three people out of a basement, that offers THIS in ONE WEEK.

You can help turn us into four people, who OCCASIONALLY SLEEP, if you can afford to, on

ko-fi.com/quietriotpod

We will love you for it. And if you can't afford to, we will love you, anyway.

LOLZ, but also weirdly cute. If Liz Truss had a sense of humour, she would get this made and wear it in a high profile event.
