The Daily Heretic

Subscribe to Heretics Clips for explosive, unfiltered conversations with icons who say exactly what they think.

Subscribe here: https://www.youtube.com/@hereticsclips/videos

It started innocently… and spiralled into chaos. Robbie explains how he ended up roping Shaun Attwood — the ex-con turned podcast host — into one of the funniest misunderstandings of his career. What began as a tongue-in-cheek exchange quickly snowballed into something much bigger, as Robbie used his quick wit and a touch of mischief to blur the line between sincerity and satire.

But beneath the laughter, there’s something deeper at play. Robbie talks about why he loves to poke fun at internet culture, how celebrity myths get created overnight, and why humour has become his best defence against the madness of fame. It’s a story that reveals not just how he thinks, but how he survives in an era where one misstep can turn into a global headline.

He opens up about the fine line between performance and reality, between self-awareness and self-sabotage — and why sometimes, you have to become the joke before anyone else can make you one. Expect razor-sharp observations on fame, ego, and the psychology of trolling, told with Robbie’s trademark charisma and chaos.

From Take That to “Angels”, from stadiums to viral moments, Robbie proves once again that he’s more than a pop icon — he’s a storyteller who thrives on turning awkwardness into art. This isn’t just a celebrity prank story — it’s a revealing glimpse into how one of the world’s biggest entertainers still finds joy in breaking the rules.

This is Robbie Williams at his funniest and most unfiltered — part stand-up routine, part social experiment, and completely Heretical.

What happens when a CIA spy admits his biggest mistakes? In this gripping interview, former CIA agent Andrew Bustamante reveals the shocking survival lessons he learned in the field, the errors that nearly cost him everything, and how those failures shaped his understanding of espionage, geopolitics, and the future of the West.

From intelligence missions gone wrong to the unspoken rules that every agent must live by, Bustamante offers a rare inside look at the high-stakes world of spying — and the brutal consequences of getting it wrong. This isn’t Hollywood fantasy. This is the raw truth about what it takes to survive as a CIA operative, the mental and physical toll it takes, and the secrets that can’t be taught in any training manual.

🔥 In this eye-opening conversation, Bustamante shares:

The critical survival tactics every CIA agent is taught — and how he failed to follow them.

Why even the best-trained spies make dangerous mistakes.

The shocking truth about surveillance, manipulation, and staying alive behind enemy lines.

How those CIA lessons apply to the everyday lives of ordinary people trying to navigate a chaotic, uncertain world.

This is more than just a spy story. Bustamante connects his personal experiences to larger global threats — from the rise of authoritarian states like China and Iran to the slow decline of Western democracy. He pulls no punches when exposing the uncomfortable truths that leaders, institutions, and media don’t want you to hear.

If you’ve ever wondered how spies really survive in the field — and what happens when they fail — this is the interview you can’t miss.

Why do so many Muslims avoid dogs — and where does this belief really come from? In this provocative interview, Polish MEP Dominik Tarczyński joins Andrew Gold on Heretics to tackle one of the most misunderstood cultural and religious clashes in modern Europe.

Tarczyński, known globally for his declaration that Poland would not accept “even one illegal migrant,” digs deep into the tension between Islamic traditions and Western values — from attitudes toward dogs to the wider culture war over immigration, identity, and integration.

👉 Why are dogs considered “impure” in parts of the Muslim world?

👉 How has this belief affected communities and coexistence in Europe?

👉 And why does Tarczyński believe political correctness is silencing honest debate about it?

He argues that the West’s fear of offending Islamists has led to double standards — where the defence of “tolerance” is used to suppress free speech. Through the lens of this simple but symbolic issue — love of dogs — Tarczyński exposes what he sees as a much bigger problem: Europe surrendering its values under pressure from radical ideologies.

The Polish politician doesn’t shy away from controversy. He calls out what he views as hypocrisy in Western media, the failures of multiculturalism in countries like Sweden and the UK, and the growing divide between those who defend European traditions and those who denounce them as “racist.”

From discussions about Tommy Robinson to the cultural significance of animals in Islam, this episode dives into the heart of Europe’s identity crisis — and asks whether defending national culture is now considered hate speech.

Love him or loathe him, Dominik Tarczyński is one of Europe’s most outspoken figures. His words on Islam, migration, and culture will either infuriate you or make you rethink everything.

In this gripping Heretics Clips episode, esteemed journalist Roy Greenslade offers a rare insider’s perspective on one of the most seismic moments in British media history: the phone hacking scandal that rocked Fleet Street and triggered public outrage, parliamentary inquiries and the eventual closure of the News of the World. Greenslade, who lived through this era from within the industry, breaks down how the culture, pressures and newsroom incentives of the time created the conditions in which unethical practices were able to thrive.

With decades spent analysing Rupert Murdoch’s media empire, Greenslade reflects on the editorial environment inside major news organisations and explores the long-standing questions about how much senior figures knew, what warning signs were missed, and why safeguards failed. Rather than dealing in speculation, Greenslade focuses on the structures, systems and cultural forces that allowed the scandal to unfold—context that is essential for understanding this complex chapter in British journalism.

As Andrew Gold guides the conversation, Greenslade opens up about the internal competition that drove newsrooms toward increasingly aggressive tactics, the pressure to deliver exclusives at any cost, and the atmosphere that blurred ethical boundaries. How were such methods able to continue undetected for so long? Why did oversight mechanisms fall short? And what responsibility did leadership—across the industry—bear in facilitating the environment where this misconduct was able to take root?

Greenslade also examines the extraordinary fallout: the public reckoning, the Leveson Inquiry, the collapse of careers and reputations, and the profound loss of trust that stretched far beyond a single newspaper. His analysis asks deeper questions that remain relevant today: What does true accountability look like inside a powerful media empire? How should oversight function when the press itself holds so much influence? And what lessons must journalism learn to prevent history from repeating itself?

This episode remains tightly focused on Roy Greenslade’s expert breakdown of how the phone hacking scandal emerged, escalated and transformed the landscape of British media forever.

What happens when a human rights lawyer calls out the host — live — for being a “privileged white man”? In this fiery Heretics debate, Clive Stafford-Smith, one of the world’s most outspoken defence lawyers, challenges Andrew Gold on race, privilege, power, and the modern obsession with identity.

This isn’t a polite back-and-forth — it’s a full-on ideological clash between two people who see justice and equality through completely different lenses.

Clive argues that privilege shapes everything — our opportunities, our perspectives, and even our sense of morality. He claims that understanding injustice requires acknowledging the invisible advantages built into Western society. But Andrew pushes back hard, questioning whether privilege politics is helping the world or dividing it even more.

Expect uncomfortable truths and genuine tension as they wrestle with questions that define our time:

• Does “white privilege” explain inequality — or oversimplify it?

• Are guilt and apology productive emotions, or moral theatre?

• What happens when empathy becomes ideology?

• And can someone raised with privilege still fight for justice — or will they always be part of the problem?

Clive draws from decades defending people on death row and victims of injustice around the world, while Andrew challenges whether the West’s obsession with identity has replaced moral courage with self-flagellation.

This is Heretics at its best — raw, honest, and impossible to ignore. The debate swings from race and class to justice, punishment, and redemption. Neither side gives an inch.

💬 Tell us in the comments: Do you believe in the concept of white privilege — or do you think it’s gone too far?
