The podcast was debated on Tuesday’s edition of The Talk on the start-up network with a panel including talkRADIO hosts Mike Graham, James Max and Dr David Bull as well as former GMTV presenter Penny Smith and political commentator Esther Krakue.
But the panel were left speechless after a clip of the podcast was played on the show as James Max and Mike Graham shook their heads and Dr David was left seemingly in shock.
Esther was also speechless at first but was the first panelist to give her reaction when prompted as she furiously branded the podcast “cringe”.
Esther exclaimed: “I’m really speechless!”
She continued: “I think the cringe is like giving me a heart attack.”
To which former Apprentice semi-finalist James Max interjected saying: “It’s a cringe fest isn’t it? It’s one of the worst things I’ve ever seen!”
He continued: “It’s drivel! 18 Million, if you’d spent that money, I’d want my money back!”
Later in the discussion, Mike Graham noted: “So, we’ve been talking about, you know, people being killed, you know, lawlessness in this country. People can’t afford to eat their homes, whatever.”
On Meghan he continued: “She’s going to tell you you can write your own future. Oh, so who cares? Right planning we keep telling her allies say leave them alone. I want them to leave me alone!”
James Max then furiously replied: “Even since they signed this deal, it’s now even more tone deaf than it was before! In the sense that we genuinely have real and difficult problems that we as a society have”
He continued: “I’m all up for ambition, by the way, I don’t care who you are. I love ambition. I love people who want to achieve things. I love people who want to succeed. I want people who want to succeed against the odds. I love people to reach their full potential, all that stuff.
“You’re not going to do it by listening to this drivel. Seriously. It’s appalling and it’s tragic.”
