Thank you for all your questions. If you missed the live broadcast, the action replay can be heard in full here.
UPPERDATE! We're live now, so let's have at it!
UPDATE! We'll be going live in about fifteen minutes, so do get ready to fire off your questions via the comment form below. See you at the top of the hour. And to listen simply click the livestream feed.
It's Friday, which means I'll be hosting another edition of our Clubland Q&A live around the planet. The action begins at 3pm North American Eastern/8pm Greenwich Mean Time. We'll try to pin down the rest of the time zones below, but do, as they say, check local listings.
As always, we'll take questions from Mark Steyn Club members across the globe on a wide range of issues. As you know, this week I was convicted by the British censorship agency Ofcom of breaching its "rules". For those uninterested in my personal travails, the main takeaway is that, like almost all arms of government around the west, Ofcom is committed to protecting the catastrophe of the last three years from any serious and consequential examination.
So we'll get into that and anything else on your mind.
~Also today: I'm on The Delingpod, with my old Speccie/Telegraph comrade James Delingpole. James managed to come up with almost two hours of questions, so that may be more Steyn than anybody needs, but you can find his show at Apple, Amazon and all the other outlets.
~Whether or not you're a Steyn Clubber you can listen to our Clubland Q&A live as it happens wherever you chance to be on this turbulent earth: membership is required only to ask a question. We love to hear from brand new members, and we are delighted to say that this week yet again we have many new names who've chosen to follow The Mark Steyn Show to its new home. So if you've joined the Club in recent days, either for a full year or a see-how-it-goes experimental quarter, do shoot me a head-scratcher for today's Q&A, and I will do my best to get to it.
~We will have a brand new Mark Steyn Show for you on Monday. I cannot tell you how immensely grateful I am to those Steyn Show guests who have chosen to stick with me. I am forever in the debt of Dominique, Leilani, Alexandra et al - all of whom will be on this summer's Mark Steyn Cruise - because Ofcom can't get you in international waters (I think). No tests, no vax passports, but just a week of fun on the Adriatic with the aforementioned ladies plus Mr Snerdley, Michele Bachmann and other Steyn Show favorites. More information here.
~If you have no desire to join The Mark Steyn Club, no worries, as they say in Oz: We seek no unwilling members - and as always today's show is free to listen to, so we hope you'll want to tune in.
As soon as we go live, members should log-in and submit their queries via our comment form below - and they'll be answered as-it-happens on the audio livestream that should magically appear just before we go on air.
~Clubland Q&A is a special production for The Mark Steyn Club. We're not paywalling off SteynOnline or any of that nonsense - and in fact this site now offers more free content than ever before in our twenty-year history. However, Club membership does confer a few benefits, including not only participation in our Q&As but also access to Tales for Our Time, our Sunday Poems and much more.
So make sure you join us live this afternoon at 3pm North American Eastern Time. That's 4pm in the Canadian Maritimes, half-past-four in Newfoundland - and, beyond the Americas, 8pm in London; 9pm in Paris; 10pm in Kiev; 11pm in Moscow; half-past-eleven in Tehran, for all you Newfoundlanders who move to Iran for the half-hour time zone; 1.45am in Kathmandu, for all you Iranians who move to Nepal to check out the quarter-hour time zone; 4am in Singapore, 7am in Sydney, 9am in Auckland, and Saturday lunchtime in His Majesty's Dominions across the Pacific.
