A world on the brink indeed, but thankfully, Liz Truss remains steadfast in her convictions - or so it seems. The UK's Prime Minister has taken to broadcasting her views via ultra-low-budget YouTube TV and podcast show, where she peddles a narrative of victimhood and government sabotage.
Truss's guests, however, have been less than enlightening. Former US Senator Marco Rubio made an appearance, only to find himself caught up in one of Truss's signature episodes - where the former PM insists on being the best prime minister Britain has ever had, despite widespread evidence to the contrary. The episode's quality is roughly equivalent to a hastily assembled YouTube video, with Truss repeating her talking points ad nauseam.
Another guest, Dan Wootton, former editor of the Sun and current presenter at GB News, seemed more than happy to lap up Truss's line, describing himself as one of the few true journalists left in the country. However, it's unclear whether this is a testament to his integrity or simply a desire for attention - perhaps both.
The two co-hosts spent much of their time decrying mainstream media outlets and calling out perceived enemies of the state, including Sky News presenter Beth Rigby and ITV News' Robert Peston. Theirs was a crusade that left one wondering if they were genuinely committed to truth-telling or simply part of some grand farce.
One can almost imagine Wootton's past - where he was sacked from MailOnline after being suspended for laughing at foul comments on air made by Laurence Fox about a female journalist. His present narrative, however, seems to involve him walking away from the mainstream media because it was "the right thing to do".
As for Truss and her podcast, one has to ask what draws in an audience of 2,000 people who tune in to watch two self-proclaimed truth-seekers spout conspiracy theories and misinformation. The answer, regrettably, is not available.
In short, Liz Truss's latest endeavour serves as a stark reminder that the UK still has some very dedicated fans - one can only hope they remain small in number for their own sake.

. She's really peddling this victimhood narrative and government sabotage vibes, but it feels so contrived 
. And don't even get me started on her guests - Marco Rubio was basically just a prop in one of her talking-point repeats 
. Dan Wootton seemed too eager to lap up her line, but is he being genuine or just seeking attention? 
It's hard to say.
. And the way she and Wootton take shots at mainstream media outlets... it feels like a bunch of self-proclaimed truth-seekers trying to troll everyone else 
. One can only hope they don't have a massive following, not for their sake but ours 
. It seems like Liz Truss and Dan Wootton just want people to think they're the only ones telling it straight, but really they're just spreading misinformation and conspiracy theories 
. Their podcast is basically a bunch of empty talking with no substance, it's like they're trying to get attention rather than actually share some real info 
. And honestly, I'm not buying the whole "truth-seeker" thing - if that was true, why are they guesting on YouTube and podcast shows? That just seems like a lazy way out to me 
. Anyway, I think their fans are probably just looking for someone to talk back at, rather than actually getting educated or informed about real issues 
And what's up with Dan Wootton, the former editor of the Sun and current presenter at GB News? He seems to be singing Truss's praises without really questioning any of her claims. Is he trying to boost his own profile or is he genuinely sold on her message? 
I'm also curious about the mainstream media outlets she's always talking about... are they really as biased against her as she says, or are they just doing their job and reporting the facts? 
anyhoo, truss's podcast just feels like another way for her to keep herself in the spotlight without actually having to do any real work 
Still, Truss's fans seem passionate (if small) and that's gotta count for something 
. Maybe it's time to give the podcast a chance and see if they can deliver on their promises? Fingers crossed 
It's like she's trying to gaslight them into believing whatever nonsense she comes up with.
. It seems like we're regressing to a point where people are more interested in clickbait and conspiracy theories than actual fact-based reporting. And Truss's podcast is just the latest example of this trend.
