James O'Brien LBC radio presenter on the risks of a far-right government, the capture of the BBC and selling John Major a white suit
January 29, 2025 · 46 min

Welcome to my new podcast, “PETER YORK’S CULTURE WARS HOUSE PARTY.” In this second episode, I’m joined by James O'Brien, the outspoken LBC talk radio host with a million and a half listeners who has been on air for over 22 years. We cover all sorts of topics - from the concept of the "Metropolitan Liberal Elite" and the risks of a far-right government to the capture of the BBC. We also discover James’ early career in retail where selling a white suit to John Major kick started his journalism career.  

 

“I think for the first time in my life, I can conceive of a far-right government in this country.”
