A great ep this week, we were joined by @stephenkb.bsky.social to talk about narratives in politics

I'm on this! Explaining pitch-rolling, kite-flying, and what happens when a politician forgets to say the bit they told us they'd say.

In which we ask “Is @rory-stewart.bsky.social the Joe Rogan of the UK?” Listen to @aiannucci.bsky.social and @helenlewis.bsky.social and special guest Rob Hutton discuss the mechanics of political announcements
