We're proud to present a brand new edition of The Mark Steyn Show. These programs, along with SteynPosts, Tales for Our Time, On the Town and much else at SteynOnline, are made possible through the support of members of The Mark Steyn Club from every corner of the earth, for which we are extremely grateful.
This weekend, Ann McElhinney and Phelim McAleer's new film opens across the United States. Gosnell stars Dean Cain, Sarah Jane Morris and Nick Searcy and tells the real-life story of the man who is almost certainly America's biggest ever mass murderer. In this return visit to The Mark Steyn Show, Ann and Phelim - bestselling authors, film-makers and theatrical producers - talk not only about the movie and visiting Kermit Gosnell in jail and having him sing Jacques Brel songs to them, but about drama drawn from climate-change trials and the Ferguson grand jury, the problems of having your actors decide they'd rather go back to waiting tables, and also the rapidly changing face of Ireland - gay, Muslim, and pro-abortion. And Phelim notes mordantly that, when you're Irish, wherever you go in the world everybody loves you - until they find out you're conservative.
This edition of The Mark Steyn Show was recorded live at sea on the inaugural Mark Steyn Cruise with an audience from the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong and elsewhere, and includes questions to Ann and Phelim from Steyn Club members.

Among the benefits of Mark Steyn Club membership is that you can enjoy The Mark Steyn Show in any medium you desire: video, audio or text. So, if you prefer the show in non-visual form, please log-in to our Audio & Transcripts department. To listen to the above show, simply click here.
As we said above, The Mark Steyn Show is made possible through the support of members of The Mark Steyn Club. We appreciate that membership is not for everyone, and we're proud to say that, thanks to the Steyn Club, this website now provides more free content than at any time in our fifteen-year history. But, if you're minded to join us, we'd love to have you. What is The Mark Steyn Club? Well, it's a discussion group of lively people on the great questions of our time (the latest will air this Tuesday). It's also an audio Book of the Month Club, and a video poetry circle, and a live music club. We don't (yet) have a clubhouse, but we do have other benefits. And, if you've got some kith or kin who might like the sound of all that and more, we do have a special limited-time Steyn Club Gift Membership. More details here.
There'll be more from the Mark Steyn cruise later this weekend.
