Saturday May 6th marks the sixth birthday of The Mark Steyn Club. HM The King has rather trod on our jubilations by choosing our Big 6 to hold his coronation, so our huzzahs are somewhat muted this year, and we'll save our official observances till post-anointing. However, we thank everyone who has been with us since Day One, and we also welcome our johnnies-come-lately who've only joined in recent days.
On this eve of the Coronation, Steyn was pleased to be reunited with one of his favourite interviewers on The Megyn Kelly Show. Over the course of an hour-and-a-quarter, they eventually worked their way around to tomorrow's ceremony, but they also touched on the Democrats' determination to turn a violent career criminal intimidating New York subway riders into this season's George Floyd, and addressed the latest lame-o "revelations" about Tucker Carlson.
Here's the Tucker segment. We'll post the rest as soon as it's uploaded:
And here's the full show. Don't forget to stay tuned for two Steyn Show veterans, Sophie Corcoran and our Wednesday mainstay Leilani Dowding, immediately after Mark. Click below to watch:
~As Megyn mentioned, Mark has a new book out. So, if you seek a respite from the modish fancies of Charles's coronation, well, there's an alternative model in The Prisoner of Windsor. Steyn's satirical yet poignant whimsy is a contemporary inversion of The Prisoner of Zenda, set in London on the eve of the coronation of an unpopular monarch. Imagine that. Craig writes from beautiful Devon in England:
Just wanted to thank Mark very much for his wonderful autographed copy of The Prisoner of Windsor book, which we've received in the post. I'm up to Chapter 3 and really enjoying it so far. :-)
Many thanks too to Mark for signing and sending us his great Feline Groovy CD. :-) It's the 'cats whiskers' .... lol :-)
Thank you, Craig. We are glad to hear that you and Margaret are enjoying it. The Prisoner of Windsor has 4.8 out of 5 stars at Amazon UK, and is doing even better at Amazon US. It's available in hardback and digital editions.
~Clubland Q&A will return next week, and The Mark Steyn Show will be back on Monday. For our Antipodean viewers, don't forget that we now air Tuesday to Friday at 5pm Australian Eastern on ADH TV.
If you missed the Coronation edition of The Mark Steyn Show or any other this week, we've re-arranged our Netflix-style home page to make it easy for you to find both the latest show and more than 250 from our archive in reverse chronological order.
