This episode is a follow-on to our most listened-to show ever, as Adrian and Jeremy tackle the fallout from the M9 “joyriding” tragedy — and the argument that the online anger is “only because some were travellers”. After a listener sends in a Facebook post claiming the hate is racist, we ask: is this just deflection from what actually happened, or is anti-Traveller abuse genuinely adding fuel to the fire? With calls from Hughie Maughan, Joanne and Chloe (and plenty of rows), we debate sympathy, accountability, TikTok culture, and why the real focus should stay on the innocent family still in hospital.
