Please add links to the channel? I haven’t watched insiders since about 2022 and while I’m very happy with my life choices I still feel that Sunday 10am pull to turn it on. I will be watching you for sure.

Not recent but iconic. In 2007 a huge container ship crashed into Nobby’s Beach in Newcastle. Here’s the image (stolen from reddit). The storm was a terrifying experience and I still get anxious when driving in heavy rain.

Eoin Colfer has a similar sense of the absurd as both Pratchett (RIP, met him twice and a true gentleman) and Adams (didn't meet him but re-read regularly). He mostly writes YA fantasy and is very amusing. I did not like Colfer's completion of Adams' final unfinished novel though, it read 'wrong'.

Australian here so no need to respond if you'd prefer to focus on your countrypeople's Qs. When sanity returns to the WH and democracy is restored, do you think there will be any desire to reform electoral processes? From a distance (again, Ausralian), most of the US systems seem v. inefficient. 💙

Haven’t watched it for a couple of years now but used to be a fanatic. I even used to have an alarm called “Insiders”. Couldn’t stand speersy and his smarmy approach to “interviews” especially with labs and independents. Sunday morning is now speersy-free.

Don’t forget ignoring the tennis in January. Also ignoring lots of different sports every four years.
