For the next four weeks, spiked’s editor Brendan O’Neill is guest-hosting Counterpoint, the alternative-thinking current-affairs show on Radio National on ABC in Australia. Recorded in London, New York and Washington over the past few weeks, Brendan’s four one-hour shows will tackle everything from reason to religion, freedom to feminism.
