Welcome to the first Thoughtcrime podcast. Throughout the year, these podcasts will be published to accompany the resources and materials on this site. We start the year with a quick study of the grammatical and figurative mechanisms of satire - and in this podcast I summarise some of the key knowledge and ideas that we've been wrestling with. We took ourselves back to the 19th century to start with and here I make some key observations about Mark Twains "Advice to Youth".
