NextImg:Live Around the Planet: Friday April 28th

It's Friday, which means I'll be conducting another edition of our Clubland Q&A live around the planet. The fun starts at 3pm North American Eastern time/8pm British Summer Time. We'll try to pin down the rest of the time zones below, but do, as they say, check local listings.

On today's show I'm happy to take questions on almost anything - including our pal Tucker Carlson's removal from the Fox News schedule and, with his disappearance, the end of the most interesting show in cable news.

It's touch-and-go whether I'll make it through the full hour, as I'm having a bit of a wobbly time, and such energy as I can muster has been pretty much devoted to autographing copies of my new book, The Prisoner of Windsor. (If you can do without what's left of my signature, it's also available at Amazon, Barnes & Noble and Indigo in Canada.) Nevertheless, I shall do my best to stagger on.

~Aside from buying the above-mentioned masterpiece, there are multiple ways to support my important lawsuit against the UK state censor Ofcom in the English High Court, including:

a) signing up a friend for a Steyn Club Gift Membership;

b) buying a near-and-dear one a SteynOnline gift certificate; or

c) treating your beloved to a stateroom on this summer's Mark Steyn Cruise.

GB News will not be joining me in court. Not for the first time, I'll be fighting an important free-speech battle alone. But the "chilling effect" of Ofcom on public discourse is far worse than Canada under Section 13, so once more unto the breach...

~As for the post-Steyn GB News, its degeneration into a Tories'n'trivia channel is proving a real hit: Mirroring the evaporation of Fox News's 8pm audience, last night The Lord President of the Privy Council Hour with Jacob Rees-Mogadon cratered to a new low - just 17,600 viewers across the British Isles, and trounced by Sky, the Beeb and Piers. Its lead-in, Farage, was down to half the audience it had six months ago. A nation that could use a serious challenge to the broadcasting establishment now has none.

~If you enjoy our Steyn Show all-stars - Eva, Leilani and Alexandra - all three of them will be on this summer's Mark Steyn Cruise - because Ofcom can't get you in international waters (we think). No tests, no vax passports, but just a week of fun on the Adriatic with the aforementioned ladies plus Mr Snerdley, Michele Bachmann and other Steyn Show favorites. More information here.

~Whether or not you're a member of The Mark Steyn Club, you can listen to our Clubland Q&A live as it happens wherever you chance to be on this turbulent earth: Club membership is required only to ask a question. We love to hear from brand new members, so if you've joined this week, either for a full year or a see-how-it-goes experimental quarter, do shoot me a head-scratcher for today's show. But, if you're not interested in joining, no worries, as they say in Oz: We seek no unwilling members - and as always the show is free to listen to, so we hope you'll want to tune in.

As soon as we go live, members should log-in and submit their queries via our comment form below - and I'll answer them as-it-happens on the audio livestream that should magically appear above (or possibly below - I forget which). And, if you disagree with my response, then let rip in the comments, and I'll endeavour to address a couple of the objections as we go along.

Clubland Q&A is a special production for The Mark Steyn Club. We're not paywalling off SteynOnline or any of that nonsense - and in fact this site now offers more free content than ever before in our twenty-year history. But Club membership does confer a few benefits, starting with participation in our weekly Q&As.

So see you back here live this afternoon at 3pm North American Eastern Time. That's 4pm in the Canadian Maritimes, half-past-four in Newfoundland - and, beyond the Americas, 8pm in London and Dublin; 9pm in Paris and Berlin; 10pm in Kiev and Moscow, now in the same time zone if not the same country; 10.30pm in Teheran, for all you Newfoundlanders who move to Iran for the half-hour time zone; midnight-forty-five in Kathmandu, for all you Iranians who move to Nepal to check out the quarter-hour time zone; 3am in Singapore, Honkers and Perth (sorry about that); 5am in Sydney and Melbourne; 7am in Auckland and even deeper into Saturday in His Majesty's Dominions across the Pacific.

But, whatever hour it is where you are, we do hope you'll be able to join us. To listen to the livestream, simply click the "play" icon on the audio player (in certain browsers, the audio will start auto-playing). And to pose a question simply use the comment form below.
