Hello and welcome back to the podcast. My name is Jonathan Brown. Today I am speaking with Dom Frisby, perhaps the worlds first economic commentator/comedian. Dom has been a friend of SW and PSE for a long time, hosting talks with Phil but also being crucial to the superb documentary The Four Horsemen, something we know our readers and subscribers have enjoyed.
A short time ago we interviewed Dom to look at all his work. Whilst he isn’t an SW author we think his work is worth time to look at as he has an interesting perspective on precious metals, crypto, the markets in general and political systems.
In this first podcast we look at how Dom became the world’s first economist-investor-comedian, how he became a libertarian - subtitled “why Cuban fathers want their daughters to be hookers”!
We also look at how well intended government actions can undermine and even eliminate personal responsibility of the citizens they are trying to help, the importance of 1909 to the First World War and why people of every political persuasion seem to dislike the BBC.
Thanks for listening to the first part in this interview with Dom. For more information check out the links to his content below – his youtube channels and his new investor subscription service. Also check out the other episodes when they are released.

Heather Remoff (Meet The Author) - What’s Sex Got To Do With It?
Monday Feb 14, 2022
Monday Feb 14, 2022
My guest today is Heather Remoff, author of What’s Sex Got to Do with It? Darwin, Love, Lust and the Anthropocene. Heather first discovered flaws in Darwin's theory of sexual selection during her doctoral research in the 1970s and has spent the last 40 years developing her understanding of it and related fields, including economics.
What’s Sex Got to Do with It? is her attempt to add insight to Darwin’s work so that it can accommodate advances in genetics and in female mating choice – advances that were unavailable to Darwin when he wrote The Descent of Man, his sequel (if you will) to the Origin of Species and his exploration of sexual selection. In this conversation, we learn about all the work Heather has done that took her sociology work and her PhD in anthropology at Rutgers and beyond.
Be sure to look out for our other interviews with Heather as we explore her ideas in more detail.

Our guest today is Coronation Street legend, Helen Worth -the much-loved actress who has played the character of Gail (Tilsley/Platt/Rodwell!) on the world’s most iconic TV series since 1974. Helen tends to avoid the spotlight away from the street so we were very lucky to get time to speak with her about her career and, most importantly, to tell everyone about the wonderful book Munu – The Most Special Rhino in the World, written by her long-term wildlife conservation partner Shirley Galligan of the White Lion Foundation and illustrated by the brilliant Zoe Barnish.
Helen has been a committed ecologist all her life and we also get into that.
