Jon Gaunt’s new podcast, which he started in his bedroom back in March, has received over one million downloads.

Jon’s producer Nick Margerrison is thrilled with the news: “This is an incredible achievement especially as we have done it with no marketing cash, in fact no cash at all. Jon Gaunt wants to thank every single person who helped to make this happen”.

A recent episode reacts to the day’s news as usual and features a passionate rant against the evils of slavery, which may surprise his critics on the left. “Go to a library and read about slavery” implores the former Sun columnist as he agrees with Jamaican calls for compensation in relation to Britain’s role in the international slave trade.
