Owen Jones, journalist, author of Chavs and The Establishment , or "that left-wing idiot off the telly", is fed up with the establishment media. After all, it punches down, not up, blames minorities for all the problems in society, and, let's face it, often just parrots the government line. So this podcast is offering something different: speaking truth to power, giving the marginalised a voice, offering hope - and having a laugh along the way. From Michael Sheen to Judith Butler, Prof. Devi Sridhar to Noam Chomsky, Peter Hitchens to Chelsea Manning and Gary Younge to Stewart Lee, the intervie...

Why Gaza Is So Much Worse Than You Think 22.11.2023

Even for those passionately opposed to Israel's assault on Gaza, there's a lack of understanding of just how dire the catastrophe facing the Palestinian people is.

Gaza 'Textbook Case of Genocide' - Holocaust Scholar Rez Segal 21.11.2023

Raz Segal - an Israeli associate professor of Holocaust and genocide studies at Stockton University in the US - is someone you need to listen to.

Me vs. Piers Morgan on Israel's Gaza massacre - on Western hypocrisy and genocide 20.11.2023

Last night I went on Piers Morgan's show to debate Israel's mass slaughter in Gaza. Piers has previously said that Russia's brutal invasion of Ukraine constitutes genocide. If that's true - then why doesn't the same apply to Gaza? Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/the-owen-jones-podcast . Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Palestine Protest Leader On How You Are Smeared For Opposing War Crimes - Protest Leader Ben Jamal Exposes Truth 13.11.2023

Suella Braverman Humiliated: Gaza Protest Is On 08.11.2023

They've done everything they can to cancel the protest - and so far, it's backfired. The Met can't find an excuse to ban it. But this tawdry episode tells us so much - and it is not good.

Israel Killed 23 Members Of His Family. Now He Holds The Media To Account. 08.11.2023

Most of us have suffered bereavements: but how do you even begin to process 23 members of your family being killed, including little children, caused by unimaginable violence? Ahmed Alnaouq is a Palestinian journalist co-founder of We Are Not Numbers ( https://twitter.com/WeAreNotNumbers): and even more horrifyingly, other family members were killed before the latest horror.

This Israeli Was Imprisoned For Opposing The Occupation. Please Listen To Her 08.11.2023

Atalya Ben-Abba is an Israeli conscientious objector: as a teenager, she was sent to prison for refusing to serve in the Israeli Defence Forces because of her opposition to the occupation.

Nuking Gaza Is An 'Option' - Israeli Minister 08.11.2023

As over 10,000 have now officially been killed, we are at the stage of an Israeli minister stating dropping a nuclear bomb on Gaza is an option. He was suspended from government meetings - for a few hours. It underlines a basic fact - claims that the Israeli has any respect for civilian life is a lie.

Establishment Smears Jewish Pro-Palestine Activists 06.11.2023

Jewish peace activists have been at the forefront of many of the pro-Palestine protests that have swept Britain since the horrors began.

The Argument Against A Ceasefire Torn Apart 06.11.2023

An interview with a Hamas official promising to repeat the 7th October atrocities has gone viral amongst opponents of a ceasefire. It shows, they say, that Israel's onslaught must continue, with an endless death toll. Here's why this argument is bankrupt on moral and practical grounds - and will unleash an even greater catastrophe. Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/the-owen-jones-podcas...

'Genocide': UN Official Resigns With Bombshell Warning 02.11.2023

Genocide is not a word which should be bandied around without good ground.
