Episode 151 - The RP Literary Review (ft. McCats)

Jack and Geraint do not actually review any books, but - joined in the first of two episodes by friend of the show and national hero Pete AKA McCats (@tonepolicing on Twitter) - do discuss three topics pertaining to literature. First, the Guardian's weirdly bitter red-baiting hitpiece against popular (and left-wing) author Sally Rooney. Then we discuss one of the hot-button issues of recent days - the British establishment's astonishing rallying around Michael Gove to defend the virtues of having books by convicted Holocaust denier David Irving on ones bookshelf. Finally, we look at the forthcoming "difficult second book" by James O'Brien.
