Here, at SteynOnline, we strive to provide that balance of important insight on the dark stuff in our world but also respite with music, film and Mark's ever popular narrations in Tales for Our Time. If you haven't yet had the opportunity, now is the perfect time to catch up with our current tale, Three Men on the Bummel by Jerome K Jerome. A new episode airs this evening.
~ In Steyn's Song of the Week Mark shared the fascinating history of "Happy Birthday to You".
~ On Monday Mark examined "England's Police State". It was our most-read piece of the week.
~ Steyn picked five details of the big picture in his Tuesday Notebook.
~ On Wednesday Mark fielded questions from Mark Steyn Club members around the planet. This week's show covered a range of topics from Trump in the Middle East to Keir Starmer going full Enoch. Click here for the action replay.
~ In this week Laura's Links, Laura shared her thoughts on the "new Canada" as well as interesting links from around the world.
~ Mark's Weekend Notebook explored the spotting of mysterious shell configurations at the beach as well as the case of political prisoner Lucy Connolly.
~ Later we aired the second from our recordings on the recent cruise - this episode of The Mark Steyn Show featuring Dan Wootton, Laurence Fox and Naomi Wolf - dealt with the effect of the UK's chief censor, Ofcom, and its deleterious effect on free speech in the UK and beyond.
~ In this week's episode of Mark Steyn On the Town we had a Eurovisionish edition. Plus the Continental Sinatra and a cavalcade of Non-Stop Number Ones.
~ On Saturday evening, Rick's Flicks returned with Rick McGinnis' review of Michael Caine in "Get Carter".
A new week begins later today with Steyn's Song of the Week at Serenade Radio at 5:30pm British Summer Time/ 12:30pm North American Eastern Time.
