Earlier this month, Graham Linehan stepped off the plane at Heathrow airport, met by five armed police officers who informed him that he was under arrest for tweets. Graham was a beloved Irish comedy writer, most well-known for having created Father Ted and The IT Crowd. Once he began speaking out in defense of women’s sex-based rights and spaces, everything changed. Graham was vilified across the UK, ostracized by his friends and co-workers, and threatened endlessly by trans activists. He never gave up, despite all this, and went on to publish his memoir, Tough Crowd, as well as continuing to push back against gender identity ideology.In this episode, Meghan Murphy speaks with Graham about his arrest, Charlie Kirk, brave people, and more.If you are enjoying The Same Drugs, don't forget to click the "follow" button!The Same Drugs is on X @thesamedrugs_.
