In 1931 they did not know yet that they were in The Great Depression

Sorry my eyes are deceiving me a bit - I was sure you'd written Recession, where of course you were meaning Depression?

Nothing sedates rationality like large doses of effortless money. After a heady experience of that kind, normally sensible behaviour drift into behaviour akin to that of Cinderella at the ball. They know that overstaying the festivities...will eventually bring on pumpkins and mice. But they nevertheless hate to miss a single minute of what is a helluva party. Therefore, the giddy participants all plan to leave just seconds before midnight. There's a problem, though: They are dancing in a room in which the clocks have no hands."

Well, if it's half as good as the Radio Solent interview, it'll be a cracker!
Looking forward to the link for the interview being posted here!

Listening live online now have a couple of kids taken over the studio? Do Londoners really listen to them? I can feel my brain cells commiting suicide.

The success or failure of your deeds does not add up to the sum of your life. Your spirit cannot be weighed. Judge yourself by the intention of your actions and by the strength you faced the challenges that have stood in your way.
The people closest to you have been trying to tell you that you have made a difference. That you did change things for the better. The Universe is vast and we are so small. There is really only one thing that we can ever truly control - whether we are good or evil.
The political triumph of the American Right has been to advance relentlessly the economic interests of the country's richest people, while emphasising a swath of moral, social and foreign policy issues that motivate and certainly distract middle-class and poor voters.

The country was founded on the principle that the primary role of government is to protect property from the majority... and so it remains

Not sure mentioning wearing 'the tin-hat' was appropriate.

Shock and Awe session for Kath and Denzil.
Interviewers left gobsmacked by awful future outlined by FP. I can see them noting every empty wine bar, Shop to Let, and House For Sale sign as they leave work tonight.
'Tin hat' referenced the ARP days of the Blitz, and will stir Churchillian memories for old Londoners. Your Cockney is at his/her best when 'battening down the hatches'. Cups of tea among the bombed out ruins etc.
Solid fact-filled performance from FP as usual, putting the fear of Christ into the listeners.
They even asked him back!

Kath- It's not like it was last time though, is it?
FP- No, it's worse.
