The Fly separates personal privilege from “white privilege,” tracing a childhood on free school meals, a father’s business lost to globalisation, graft through odd jobs to a late degree, and even life as an outsider in Spain. He questions whether skin colour explained his progress, argues today’s squeeze hits everyone, and urges dropping the label in favour of shared opportunity. Write the Fly Support the show

A candid, unscripted podcast from a middle-aged Londoner reflecting on family, culture, and the clash between traditional values and modern progressive ideologies. With a background in graphic design and a life rooted in the city he grew up in, The Fly explores the personal and political tensions of raising children in a changing world. Honest, reflective, and unafraid to question the status quo. Write to the Fly
