On this week's podcast:
Two weeks out from the all important mid-term elections, we discuss the likely outcome and its repercussions with Patrick Basham from Democracy Institute.
In these exciting times, Democracy Institute, in conjunction with the London Express, has been doing noticeably good research on American politics.
And following the success of his novel "Agenda 2060”, author A.I. Fabler is back with “The Seed of Corruption”.
The parallels with actual recent events are stunning, more so because he wrote it mostly before we had even heard of Covid-19.
The interview is a must listen.
And we go to The Mailroom, with your much appreciated communication.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
