This week James and Pete talk the Royal Wedding (kind of), the ongoing saga of ABC cuts and Spotify’s campaign against “hateful music”. We talk to Professor Mark Bauerlein from Emory University about his recent article on the disappearance of great books from universities and how identity politics is destroying the teaching of literature (10:13-32:48). We also talk to IPA Research Fellow Gideon Rozner about his time in the US, how he ended up speaking at a tax cut rally in a small town in Iowa and his take on the government’s ban on $10k card payments (33:09-49:52).
