Ricochet is the best place on the internet to discuss the issues of the day, either through commenting on posts or writing your own for our active and dynamic community in a fully moderated environment. In addition, the Ricochet Audio Network offers over 50 original podcasts with new episodes released every day.
An interesting mix this week (and sometimes with just TOO much information) as James and Toby discuss whether 2022 saw higher-than average mortality in Britain and elsewhere and, if it did, whether the mRNA vaccines are responsible; Charles III’s forthcoming coronation (which the King intends to dedicate to refugees and NHS workers); the prostitution boom in Davos; and most disturbingly, what James would do if faced with a choice between having sex with Klaus Schwab or getting vaccinated.
Finally, Toby takes up the Free Speech Union’s petition to save Jeremy Clarkson, which currently has over 40,000 signatures.
In Culture Corner it’s The Last of Us (HBO Max, Sky Atlantic’s NOW), Echo 3 (AppleTV+), Peacemaker (HBO Max, Sky Atlantic’s NOW), the tennis documentary Break Point (Netflix) and “Flashman,” which Toby is currently reading.
Opening sound this week is former US Secretary of State John Kerry summarising Davos.

I hope James is willing to get a shot of antibiotics after the – er – encounter with Herr Schwab. Yeow.
