Show notes

This week is special: recorded live in front of our audience at the Leicester Square Theatre in London and hosted by Byline Times @BylineTimes -- we're delivering part II of Rick's UK adventures across the pond. The Lincoln Project's Rick Wilson and Maya May sit down with The Bunker's Alex Andreou and Naomi Smith @bunkerpod.bsky.social — with a surprise appearance from Count Binface @CountBinface — for a transatlantic reckoning on US and UK politics. Together they compare what each democracy is getting right and wrong, make the case that the UK has to correct course before it's too late, and dig into what America can still learn from Britain. It's sharp, funny, and a little bit ominous — exactly the conversation both countries need right now.

Follow Rick Wilson ⁨@therickwilson⁩ , Maya May ⁨@mayaonstage⁩ , and the Lincoln Project ⁨@TheLincolnProject⁩ .
