I wish I found it surprising, but I don’t. Just very depressing.

I hate it too. Just do less inclined to do stuff. And I REALLY hate the dark mornings: even more than the dark evenings. Already waiting for next March…

I had no idea there were two Jeffrey Archers. The bloke from the obits today seems a very decent fellow and a decent writer too! So unlike his namesake.

I’m just back from Paris where there was scattered small protests all over leading to today. I’ve not once been to Paris without bumping into some sort of protest. What a city. What a country.

Exactly so. This keeps coming up “nothing to do with me. I’m a GOOD person”. Quite frankly, I’m sick of it.

I agree. The older o get the more I realise most men (even the “good” ones either a) don’t care at all or b) don’t care enough.

My main concern is a list of people who don't seem to understand - or care - about public service broadcasting. (Roger Bolton podcast can be v good on this.)

If you hate it now, fine, but I can't see how anything can ever feel effective or promising if we've already decided it's crap. Let's just decide everything everywhere is crap and go and live in a void.

My timeline is full of people moaning about the speech before he gave it. All you had to was wait a few hours, watch/listen/read it and the form a view rather than just constant miserablist and despair. It's simply not healthy.

Danny “Tommo” on such an obvious hustle, it’s almost embarrassing. Of course anyone giving him £ deserves to be taken for a ride, and it’s delicious to see them lose money, so…

Spotify does that a lot. The Beloved used to throw up a mash of about six different people, mainly spiritual songs from US Christian bands mixed in with some English electronic pop music from the late 1980s early 1990s

That’s a separate issue from people debating that Brian isn’t blood related and therefore can’t love/have a relationship with Xander. Following that logic, one of his daddies can’t love him properly as one of them is blood.

Jo dB @jodb.bsky.social · 29/09/2026
He’s known Xander all his life and done a lot of caring. He IS his grandfather. I’m amazed that there’s still people who think “full blood” is the only way to be a family. #TheArchers

“It’s not ALL men.” None of the 50+ men the Cornell rapists invited to come join them in raping a woman they’d drugged went to the authorities or tried to stop it. Not all men would rape an unconscious woman, but where are the men who’d try to stop it, or EVEN FUCKING OBJECT?

This is, of course, right. But the replies to the original post (not the one I’m quoting) are doing their best to prove the Rolling Stone journalist right tbh.

My issue with most podcasts is that no matter how much I enjoy them at first, I usually end up being bored by the constraints of format (favourite meal, favourite film, what I did yesterday etc)

Yes, and of course people have no children weddings but a v weird choice for parents of a young child. I wonder if it’s a portent for Stella really not wanting to be Rosie’s parent deep down #TheArchers

I just find it jarring (I generally despise the podcast format of two people telling each other stuff and “allowing” me to listen), despite being absolutely in the market for it on paper. Perhaps I should just read the transcripts.

Jo dB @jodb.bsky.social · 27/09/2026
I think it’s a bit of “I’m a citizen journalist” from people with social media accounts and attention seeking. There’s always been those people who get into the centre (a “witness”) of a news story they’ve got nothing to do with, so a bit of that too. And £ of course.
