Had a listen, these are some pretty right wing populist views, the fact they are immigrants feels like something to take that edge off. The people they interview are mostly awful, David Starkey, Tommy Robinson (Stephen Christopher Yaxley-Lennon), eww...

100% agree, I rely on HN for genuine insight, recently I've found it really difficult to trust what I'm reading. For instance this thread → https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47247639 has so many new accounts all saying that how brilliant the product is.
