| 6/24/26 |  The Andy Man's Guide to Cabinet Making | Andy Burnham may well be the PM-in-waiting but he can't do the job by himself. So who should be in his cabinet? Naomi, Alex and Kenny ponder the question on every political geek's lips, and put some fantasy cabinet suggestions of their own forward too. And we also survey the wreckage of Nigel Farage's most hilarious media round, ever. Plus a break from the politics with one of our regular features ... but will it be Wokey Dokey or Grin And Share It? You'll just have to listen in to find out... ***SPONSOR US AT KO-FI.COM/QUIETRIOTPOD*** • Build your own fantasy cabinet.

| 6/24/26 |  From Brexit to Burnham, with James O'Brien | It's appropriate that Starmer's teary farewell comes amid the tenth-anniversary obituaries for Brexit, as the two are inexorably linked. Alex and Naomi are joined by broadcaster, author and Quiet Riot favourite James O'Brien to look back at ten years of Brexit, and tease out the links to Starmer's resignation. And they break out the Quiet Riot crystal ball to consider what the future may look like politically... take notes and then wait a decade or two before judging :-) ***SPONSOR US AT KO-FI.COM/QUIETRIOTPOD*** • Care about our EU relationship?

| 6/21/26 |  Sunday School: Nigel's half-empty glass | Has anyone seen the confident swagger of Nigel Farage lately? Thought not. A month of funding controversy, candidate shenanigans and sliding support has culminated in Reform UK being soundly beaten in a by-election that was supposed to be too close to call. Alex and Kenny look at why Reform is stalling, and the reasons why Farage is right to be feeling a bit 'glass half-empty' right now. And the wonderful Emma Harrison, CEO of Make Votes Matter, is back (with a bonus appearance from Naomi) for a deep dive into all the different options for electoral reform. Plus - apropos of nothing - what do you do if you get a job and discover you're just no good at it? ***SPONSOR US AT KO-FI.COM/QUIETRIOTPOD*** • Make Votes Matter – they deserve your support • We have put together a BLUESKY STARTER PACK, if you would like to join us there • Email us at quietriotpod@gmail.com • Or visit our website www.quietriotpod.com Half-empty glass cover image by Etan J.

| 6/19/26 |  BY-ELECTION SPECIAL: Maker-or-Breakerfield | It's the middle of the night and the Makerfield result has just been declared... what next? Alex and Kenny prop their eyes open with matchsticks to take stock of a result that has huge implications for this country's political future. Well, probably. There are by-elections in Scotland too – Aberdeen South, plus the Arbroath and Broughty Ferry seats, are both up for grabs following the election of local SNP MPs Stephen Flynn and Stephen Gethins to Holyrood last month. All that and it's not even breakfast time yet... ***SPONSOR US AT KO-FI.COM/QUIETRIOTPOD*** • Make Votes Matter – they deserve your support • Want us to rejoin the EU?

| 6/18/26 |  X Marks The Rot | Having spent their formative years being herded into and around the playpen/minefield/information artery that is social media, Britain's youngsters are about to experience a life outside the social media bubble. Or are they? Naomi, Alex and Kenny look in more depth at what's likely to happen to the under-16 social media junkies, as well as what's happened to their counterparts in Oz, which has already been waging war on social media for a few months. There's also the latest – vaguely positive – news from the Strait of Hormuz and the latest – vaguely positive – news about Britain's economy. To help them find their way, they are joined by the utterly wonderful Emma Harrison, CEO of the leading campaign for Proportional Representation, Make Votes Matter. But why no PR discussion, you cry? That's coming up in the next few days :-) ***SPONSOR US AT KO-FI.COM/QUIETRIOTPOD*** • Make Votes Matter – they deserve your support • Want us to rejoin the EU?

| 6/14/26 |  Sunday School: They think it's all over... Again | Just how many red cards will Keir Starmer be shown before he actually leaves the pitch? Naomi and Alex ponder the latest Healey brickbats being hurled Sir Keir's way, and look in more detail at the 'defence v welfare' narrative. Plus, if you had a trillon bucks like Elon Musk, what would you do with it? Think Brewster's Millions, but with questionable morals. ***SPONSOR US AT KO-FI.COM/QUIETRIOTPOD*** • Late night comedy clips on Trump's Big 80 from Desi Lydic on the Daily Show, Late Night with Seth Myers, Jimmy Fallon on the Tonight Show, and Jimmy Kimmel Live • Here is Arthur Snell's Behind The Lines on the Defence Sec resignation • And here is Arthur's substack • We have put together a BLUESKY STARTER PACK, if you would like to join us there • Email us at quietriotpod@gmail.com • Or visit our website www.quietriotpod.com Brought to you by Naomi Smith, Alex Andreou and Kenny Campbell.

| 5/17/26 |  Sunday School: A Kingmakerfield by-election | The next PM may be decided in a by-election near Wigan. That could be problematic for both the voters of Makerfield and the electorate at large. Naomi Smith and Kenny Campbell look at what the Burnham drama could mean for Britain as a whole, as national and local politics collide in Labour's latest psychodrama. Talking of local politics, they also venture to Worcestershire, where a rainbow coalition has formed to sideline some (allegedly) useless Reform councillors ... much to the chagrin of Conservative Central Office. And, in an attempt to escape the 'localm' for a few minutes, they pick some holidays ... that they wouldn never go on. Very Quiet Riot, that one. ***SPONSOR US AT KO-FI.COM/QUIETRIOTPOD*** • That excellent Substack on Farage's millions by David Howarth https://drhow.substack.com/p/farages-5-million?triedRedirect=true • The elections report from Make Votes Matter • Alex's fabulous Podyssey series • Arthur Snell's Syrian deep-dive on Behind The Lines • Email us at quietriotpod@gmail.com • Or visit our website www.quietriotpod.com Brought to you by Naomi Smith, Alex Andreou and Kenny Campbell.

| 5/14/26 |  The Cling Speech | Political psychodrama heaped on top of political drama. Well, sort of. The psychodrama of the Labour leadership battle is real, whether we want another short-term PM or not. Naomi, Alex and Kenny pretend to hate the drama and then get sucked into the socialist-ish soap opera that's captivating Westminster. And then there's the King's Speech, which is legislatively significant but ... well, wouldn't it be more fun to find out what WE would do if we got the keys to No.10? Plus a properly uplifting Grin And Share It, some ranting about uncouth journalists and random sandwich news. ***SPONSOR US AT KO-FI.COM/QUIETRIOTPOD*** • Saving lives with rubble – this week's Grin And Share It • Alex's fabulous Podyssey series • Arthur Snell's Syrian deep-dive on Behind The Lines • Email us at quietriotpod@gmail.com • Or visit our website www.quietriotpod.com Brought to you by Naomi Smith, Alex Andreou and Kenny Campbell.
