Welcome to the first episode of my new podcast, “PETER YORK’S CULTURE WARS HOUSE PARTY.” There’s some serious stuff here, but we’re also having a bit of fun along the way. This podcast is all about my cultural preoccupations, from how political Culture Wars are waged—and yes, do check out my latest book, A Dead Cat On Your Table — to the reputational currency of clever celebrities, and, of course, the eternal quest for the best suede loafers in St James’s.
In this first episode, I'm joined by Michael Wolff, the journalist and bestselling author behind the Trump White House trilogy—Fire and Fury, Siege, and Landslide. These books offered an unprecedented, often jaw-dropping look into the chaos and intrigue of Donald Trump’s presidency. He's also written the definitive biography of Rupert Murdoch The Man Who Owns the News. Michael shares his insights on another Donald Trump presidency, Elon Musk, the Tech Billionaires, and the potential revelations from his recordings of the late Jeffrey Epstein.
“Right now we have two kings of the world in the same room together.” – Elon Musk and Donald Trump – “That is not a prescription for success for one of the kings.”

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.
