You Can't Say THIS WORD In America + The UK Just Took Another Very Dark Turn...

Russell Brand: What counts as a curse word these days? In this fun (and very sweary) segment, we dive into the global hierarchy of swearing — from “wanker” to the C-word — and what they reveal about culture, censorship, and Britishness abroad. Plus, a few thoughts on Tommy Robinson, the watershed, and the charming chaos of English insults.

 

The UK Just Took Another Very Dark Turn...

Russell Brand: The UK has just taken a major step toward legalizing state-sanctioned suicide. In this episode of Russell Brand: Streamed, I ask — who really gets to decide when a life is worth living? The state now claims it’s about kindness, compassion, and dignity, but is that the whole story? I explore the spiritual, moral, and political implications of this “assisted dying” bill, and ask if we’re handing over too much power — not just over our lives, but our deaths — to institutions that may not have our best interests at heart.
