What The X

About the show

Auto-generated captionsTimed from 2:16 to 2:04:49.

Bob is on his own for a Saturday What The X, monitor flickering, casting the net from the sports desk to the parties. He starts on Jim Spence, the reporter he remembers from the football, now talking in a way Bob says has nothing to do with heating and eating. A viral scrap with someone in the Farage orbit follows, and then a long stretch on the Greens under Zack Polanski: Tories with bikes, evangelical liberals, not a movement that came out of the working class. A housing chart is used to argue that prices rose on greed, not migration, and a Reform talk he walked into at George Square becomes the claim that calling that party working class is absurd. Class, a listener writes in, is a relation and a consciousness, not an identity. With the SNP looking set to come back in May, Bob says the real indictment is still the genocide.
