Five family members murdered. One disputed phone call. Could Jeremy Bamber be serving life for a crime he didn’t commit? --- Matthew has recently faced homelessness. If you’re able to help, you can support Matthew via PayPal (https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/MatthewJSteeples). Sharing this episode and leaving a supportive comment would also mean a great deal. --- Matthew Steeples joins Andrew Gold on Heretics to examine the White House Farm murders, Jeremy Bamber’s conviction and the evidence Matthew believes demands a fresh investigation. In 1985, five members of the Bamber family were killed at their farmhouse in Essex. Jeremy Bamber was convicted the following year and has consistently maintained his innocence. But a disputed account of a 6:09am emergency call raises an unsettling question: if Bamber was outside with police, who could have been calling from inside? How did an apparent murder-suicide become a murder conviction? Why does the silencer remain so fiercely contested? And what happened to evidence that might have helped establish the truth? We explore Sheila Caffell’s story, Julie Mugford’s testimony, questions about Essex Police’s handling of the crime scene, and the investigation by The New Yorker’s Heidi Blake, discussed in the Blood Relatives podcast. Matthew explains why he changed his mind about the case—and why he believes the fight over Bamber’s conviction is far from over. Could this be a miscarriage of justice? Or do the doubts fall short of overturning the verdict? Which detail deserves the closest scrutiny: the phone call, the silencer or the handling of the crime scene?

Hollywood insiders tell Adam Carolla: “I agree with you, but don’t out me.” What are they afraid would happen if people found out? Comedian and podcaster Adam Carolla joins Andrew Gold on Heretics to discuss the private dissent behind Hollywood’s public politics. From sitcom and late-night writers’ rooms to conversations on set, Carolla explains why he believes political conformity is a business decision—and why some people quietly agree with him while asking him to keep it secret. Subscribe to Adam's show: https://www.youtube.com/@TheAdamCarollaShow1 Who gets hired in Hollywood? What happens when someone reveals they voted for Donald Trump? And how much of the entertainment industry’s public moral certainty comes from conviction, career pressure or fear of being blackballed? The conversation then turns to Los Angeles and California’s decline. Carolla gives his verdict on homelessness, rising taxes, housing regulations, Gavin Newsom’s COVID restrictions and the California exodus. He explains his controversial “gynofascism” theory, while Andrew challenges him on authoritarianism, immigration and the changing identity of London and Europe. They also explore liberal elites’ distance from everyday life, the politics people take with them when they move, and Carolla’s argument that modern comfort is costing us practical skills and independence. From AI to Aldous Huxley’s Brave New World and George Orwell, the discussion ends with a question: can California recover—or is it time to leave? Subscribe to Heretics with Andrew Gold for candid interviews about free speech, power, politics and the ideas people hesitate to discuss publicly.

She asked an American organ buyer whether someone had been killed for his pancreas—then he turned the question back on her… Mariana van Zeller, the Peabody and Emmy-winning investigative journalist behind National Geographic’s Trafficked, joins Andrew Gold on Heretics to discuss organ trafficking, murder for hire and the hidden networks profiting from human suffering. From an armed hitman in Los Angeles to an American buying a pancreas on the black market, Mariana shares what happened when she confronted the people inside these criminal economies. We discuss whistleblowers killed after exposing corruption, a doctor who said he worked for a cartel, and the questions organ buyers would rather avoid. The conversation also covers Jeffrey Epstein, Prince Andrew and the treatment of powerful people—as well as a disagreement about human nature: are people born evil, or do systems create monsters? Mariana then reveals the human trafficking behind “pig butchering” crypto scams, the captives forced to scam strangers, and the celebrity impersonators who manufacture romance for money. What happens when the person trying to steal your savings is also a victim? Subscribe to Heretics with Andrew Gold for more interviews exploring power, secrecy and human behaviour.

What if the West has already crossed the point of no return - and we haven’t noticed? Andrew Doyle joins Andrew Gold on Heretics to explore the fall of Rome, the future of Western civilisation, and the warning signs Britain and America could be missing. Get Andrew's book The End of Woke: https://www.amazon.co.uk/END-WOKE-Culture-Expect-Counter-Revolution/dp/1408723980/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0 Follow him on X: https://x.com/andrewdoyle_com The comedian, writer and broadcaster begins with something much closer to home: former friends in comedy and theatre whose behaviour left him questioning whether the culture war had changed them—or whether he had ever really known them. From the Roman Empire and Christianity to immigration, gender ideology, free speech and censorship, we examine what happens when a society stops believing in the values holding it together. Why do people you once understood suddenly seem to inhabit a different reality? Would you recognise a civilisation collapsing around you? And is America better protected than Britain? But Doyle’s warning about what we might do to “save the West” could be the most unsettling part of all. #AndrewDoyle #Heretics #FallOfRome #FreeSpeech Learn more about your ad choices.

Dr. Ammon Hillman says the evidence is in the Bible. So I ask him to show me… Follow Ammon: https://www.youtube.com/@ladybabylon666 Following his viral appearances on the Danny Jones podcast, Dr Ammon Hillman joins Andrew Gold on Heretics to explain his extraordinary claims about Jesus Christ, ancient Greek and biblical translation. I wanted to understand how he reaches those conclusions—and whether he could back them up. We examine his interpretation of Jesus’ arrest in Mark 14:51–52, his claim about the meaning of “Christ”, and his arguments about Hebrew, the Septuagint and the origins of the Old Testament. Along the way, we get into ancient drugs, Greek mystery religions, Lucifer and demon possession. I question his claims about both Christianity and Judaism. Giving someone a fair hearing doesn’t mean sharing their beliefs—and this conversation includes plenty of pushback, disbelief and unexpectedly funny exchanges. As it goes on, even my nose becomes part of the discussion. Hillman is a classicist, author of The Chemical Muse and the creator behind Lady Babylon. But what happens when I ask him to take me from the ancient words to his most controversial conclusions? Which argument would you most want him to substantiate?

And once a system learns your weaknesses… International bestselling Orphan X author Gregg Hurwitz joins Andrew Gold on Heretics to explore mind control, social media manipulation and the hidden forces shaping what you believe. Follow Greg here: https://x.com/GreggHurwitz From his startling claims about TikTok, pupil tracking and biometric data to troll farms operating hundreds of devices, Hurwitz describes how platforms, foreign regimes and political opportunists exploit human psychology. Why would Russia, China and Iran want to fuel BOTH sides of a culture war? And how many of the accounts influencing your opinions belong to real people? Drawing on his research inside mind control cults, Gregg explains how fear, conformity and algorithms can change our perception of reality. We also explore the psychology of liberals and conservatives, psychopaths in politics, censorship, Charlie Kirk, and the unsettling parallels with George Orwell and Aldous Huxley.

I asked how secret societies manipulate you. The answer was much closer to home… Get Mark's books: - The Secret History of the World: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Illustrated-Secret-History-World/dp/1468315668/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0 - The Secret History of the Universe: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Secret-History-Universe-Ancient-Wisdom/dp/1918107017/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0 --- Freemasons, secret rituals and powerful men behind closed doors. Mark Booth, also known as Jonathan Black, joins Andrew Gold on Heretics to explore the hidden teachings of secret societies—and the unsettling claims made about their influence. Mark describes ancient mystery schools where revealing secrets allegedly meant death, terrifying initiation ceremonies, and practices he believes can give people power over others. Yet he insists Freemasonry is fundamentally benevolent. I challenge him on what happens when powerful people decide they know what’s best for humanity. Then the conversation gets stranger: scientists practising the occult, a table that isn’t what it seems, the possibility of living in a simulation, consciousness after death, and intelligence that could be older than humanity itself. Mark is the author of The Secret History of the World and The Secret History of the Universe. Which claim surprised you most—and which would you challenge?

Having worked with Owens, Boreing gives his assessment of her relationship with truth, fame and self-interest. We discuss her claims about Brigitte Macron, her attacks on Erika Kirk, and why he believes “just asking questions” can become character assassination. He also explains his spiritual interpretation of Tucker Carlson’s account of being attacked by demons. Then we turn to immigration, high-trust societies, free speech and what Boreing calls the “third-worldisation” of social media. Is Britain importing values it once left behind? And what happens when a civilisation abandons the beliefs that helped sustain it? The conversation gets personal when I admit that I want to believe in God—but can’t make myself believe. We explore Christianity, atheism, Richard Dawkins and the fear of death, before discussing Ben Shapiro, the rise of the Daily Wire and Boreing’s King Arthur series, The Pendragon Cycle.

Then she reveals what her agent did… Check out Drea's brilliant show: https://www.youtube.com/@TheULTRAFREEPodcast The Sopranos star Drea de Matteo joins Andrew Gold on Heretics for an unfiltered interview about Hollywood, cancel culture, vaccine mandates and the cost of refusing to play along. Best known as Adriana La Cerva in The Sopranos and for her role in Sons of Anarchy, Drea describes being dropped by her agent without a phone call, facing foreclosure and turning to OnlyFans. But the question she says she was asked while caring for the woman who raised her takes this conversation somewhere much darker. We discuss Donald Trump, RFK Jr, Robert De Niro and why Drea questions Hollywood’s celebrity political endorsements. She also reveals her surprising first Sopranos paycheque and what happened when a harness snapped during a violent scene. Plus, Drea shares her views on geoengineering, religion and institutional power — before we confront what people actually mean when they call Hollywood “demonic”.

After an hour of clashing with Milo Yiannopoulos, I ask one personal question - and the conversation takes an unexpected turn… Follow Milo: https://x.com/Nero Milo Yiannopoulos joins Andrew Gold on Heretics for a heated, often hilarious interview about his claims on his own preferences, his changing views on Islam, and why he regrets helping Donald Trump win in 2016. We clash over gay adoption, religion, free speech, Candace Owens and Tucker Carlson. I challenge Milo’s sweeping claims and ask where the jokes end and his real beliefs begin. We also discuss MAGA, conspiracy theories, and his account of being deported from America despite supporting ICE. Between the arguments and insults, there’s a more personal conversation about childhood, loneliness and whether making other people laugh has ever made Milo happy.
