- "On a scale of 1-10, how badly do you think this call has gone for you?"
"Do you know why you can’t word it- because your thoughts don’t make sense."
"You think Prince Andrew is an innocent victim of circumstances conspiring against him."
James O'Brien has this caller on the ropes as he says Prince Andrew has done "nothing wrong", but Prince Harry has by "choosing" to take his family to California.

This guy is mental. Lost me the moment he said “Andrew did nothing wrong.”
Some of the British people are obsessed with the Royal family no matter what they do.😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
l agree many monarchist are completely bedazzled by the Windsors.
Remember how the right wing tried to hang kier out to dry for possibly not convicting Jimmy savil and grooming gangs.
No idea why?! They're ordinary human beings. They have scandals, They're adulterers, drug takers, rubbing shoulders with men who traffic underage girls.....they are NOT anything special or people whom we should be in awe of and I think we better understand the Royals because of the Internet. Just like Hollywood stars of yesterday, the Royals have long since lost their mystique!
It's incredibly cringe.
Unless they are not white 😂😂😂
The way the Royal Family PR team has managed to paint Harry as a worse villain than Andrew is absolutely breathtaking.
... and sick!
The UK media is their PR team.
harry did it to himself
@@leonhughes9014nah, he didn't. He's been made a villain to take attention away from Andrew. Andrew is a predator and a liar.
the young ladies weren't comparing buying new shoes and designer handbags after getting of the private jets. I tell you what's predatory is the amount of young women looking for men to pay for their lives why aren't these classed as predators too. abusing the insecurities of wealthy men..@@alwhyte6533
I think a 12 million quid payoff speaks volumes no matter how technically innocent he may be 🤔🤨
Exactly. Who pays 12 mill if you're innocent and whose money did he use? The taxpayer! Can't make this 💩 up! 😂
If he were innocent he would have gone to court. We all know it.
Unfortunately thats now how to works in the royal family or in America. often out of court settlements are just to stop something surfacing. I more mean what he did might have been completely legal but very bad for a public figure
"oh the Grand Old Duke of York,
He paid 12 million quid.
To someone that he'd never met
For something he never did"
that's the power of the media. What is meant by "technically innocent", you mean innocent?
did the first caller just say what andrews done is MINOR? the jokes write themselves!
andrew did a minor*
17 perfectly legal here.
@@ppo2424you keep telling yourself that.. you try getting with my 17yo daughter you wouldn't be walking now!
@@Murph_82what’s her Facebook I’ll put that to the test?
@@Murph_82There's a difference between law and your whim.
Imagine getting put on the internet for the rest of your life arguing as a Prince Andrew apologist
Maybe he is one he called
I can't, but I imagine this caller needs a hard drive check.
@@Nathan-gn3ls indeed
The same people accusing the BBC of hiding the crimes of Jimmy Savile, are the same people trying to defend the crimes of Prince Andrew.
Ironically he chose to call in and say those things. He brought this upon himself.
He’s £12 million worth of guilty.
And you don't know if MI5 had a word too. Take this or else.
£12m of taxpayers money
Now then now then now then
Exactly
This is why Harry and Meghan left. You have people fighting for Andrew who has done something but vilifying Harry and Meghan for doing nothing.
It is the other way around. Harry has slagged off the Royals and wanted to have his cake and eat it. Whereas Andrew has denied he did what he was accused of but is seen as guilty in the eyes of public opinion.
No, they left for privacy. Obviously 😂.
What has he done? He was photographed with a 17 year old. Huw Edwards was defended for worse.
@@jester6-1-6was he photographed with someone younger than that?
@@jester6-1-6and why did he pay millions to the accuser,was it for the photograph he took ?
If Andrew was American he would have all the qualities to be elected President.
You people elected Boris Johnson, maybe get off the high horse
@@jonathannathan7299yeeks I didn’t.
@jonathannathan7299 I didn't either- I have always viewed him as dangerous and awful
Biden isn’t that bad
Harsh, but not wrong. We in the US have a choice between sanity and insanity, yet somehow I can't say which will prevail.
And while B Johnson has severe issues, I would not put him at Trump's level. Yet.
Paying off his wife Randy Andy only paid £3 million, but to pay off a girl he’d never met before he paid £12 million.
Bizarre.
He'll be given a 6 figure salary a year on GB News after this performance.
sadly true.
GB news will be bankrupt soon enough
😂😂😂😂👏
LOL of course he wouldn’t. But if your virtue signal released a little dopamine I’m happy for you 😂
Not a chance. He didn't manage to blame any small boats for anything
It's scary to think that people like this walk amongst us.
As a woman, with my personal experience, this was literally the first thing about the adult world.
AND they have a radio show, crazy
@@anna8328 ikr, that's all we run into for the most part
The obsessive behaviour with the Royal family is embarrassing
The haters will always hate and Karen's will always be karens
Nothing wrong with traditions and institutions. 🇬🇧
@@staffsaddler7611there’s traditions and there’s celebrating austerity and inequality by worshipping unelected people who’ve never accomplished anything in their lives besides being born
Of the people born into the monarchy, who are given everything for just being born, take it seriously and know it comes with rules and responsibilities. Some think it should be free and come with no responsibility or work and cause nothing but harm.
In a country that has people who are not rich helping vote Toff Tories into power for nearly 14 years is it any wonder the level of caller that phones O'Brien.
IQ’s are at an all time low. Mainstream media are leaving people misinformed, not by accident..
😢😢😢 I'm surrounded by fools.
They're actually in the minority if you listen to the show. There are lots of amazing people who call in, it's just the idiots who get attention on TH-cam.
@@jimUK87 Yet 14 years later...................
😂
It’s funny how you can see the moment they hear a logical, sound argument and you can hear them think “wait, this isn’t in any of the daily Mail headlines, what do I think now?”
Sadly, you are right.
Absolutely right
So so true!
This is a scarily accurate assessment. Right wing print media is poison for the mind.
The problem is they don't think in the first place 😂
"What Prince Andrew did was very Minor" ... Someone should explain to him that's exactly the point 🫣
You deconstructed him flawlessly 🤣
Now then now then now then
This man is typical of a person who thinks Andrew's behavior is acceptable. "He did nothing wrong" Jimmy Saville comes to mind. I am just an American listening in.
Millions defended Saville 😢
Saville...a friend of Prince Charles, now the King. Hmmm???
@jeremybunn8473 Also a friend of Mrs Thatcher who bestowed honours on him despite being strongly advised to have nothing to do with him.
@@HuplesCatdon't remember that ever happening
@@northleedspoppa sorry but your memory is faultly. Until he died millions ‘loved’ him especially in Yorkshire
Didnt Andrew actually stay a few nights at epsteins place even when he flew out there to "tell him off"? That literally makes zero sense.
He also saw that woman in New York,US!
He said it was the most convenient for him, which is kinda sus couse i imagine that NYC got a couple hotels for people with lots of money
Yes he did because it was “convenient “
Perhaps epstein had his own pizza express restaurant? Andrew loves going there, right....
@@davidmichaels362 perhaps his mom did not give him money for that weekend
and this is why the world has gone mad,people dont want to see the truth even when it is staring them in the face.
The world has always been BONKERS. Just nowadays the halfwits have the internet and mobile phones and they can more freely express their idiocy.
I agree entirely. It is astounding to me. The irony of the internet.
It’s the Post Truth era - the war against reality.
Its not that people don't want to see the truth when it's starring them in the face.
I believe people just don't give a sh*# about the truth. This is why we have far too many conflicts around the world.
It's the child with cake all over it's face. "It wasn't me."
£12 million says Andrew has done a lot of wrong.
She was above the age of consent and the lawsuit was filed at the very last moment so the trial would coincide with the queens jubilee seems like extortion
12 million says he doesn't want his private life in the courts , Michael Jackson and lots of rich celebrities buy their silence.
@@JOEFABULOUS.She knew what she was doing , no one forced her to do anything.
Do you know that to be fact? Were you there?
@@Tom85AVFC it's public knowledge that her majesty dipped into kitty (tax payers money)to keep her quiet.
The awkwardness of this conversation would even cause Andrew to sweat
😅😅
😂😂😂
Impossible, he can't sweat 🤣
It was so obvious he was parroting what one of his parents had said round the dinner table 🤦🏻♀️
😂😂
You don't know that. You weren't at their dinner table.
@@chesterdonnelly1212I think the point you missed was the guy claimed to have an opinion but clearly had never thought about the logic of it before he opened his mouth, therefore is probably just parroting it from someone else
@@isolationnationn yes it's very strange to phone in with someone else's opinion.
@@chesterdonnelly1212 is it your opinion too ?
and who wanted this to go away? who knew it was bad for 'the firm'? who paid the hush money? that's right saint queen elizabeth the second...that family is grotesque from the top to the bottom
James, you are brilliant!! So quick, articulate & on the side of the truth
Keep it up mate you speak for so, so many of us. ✌️💜
🤣
He does not speak for me the armhole
James has never heard of Maui, or he´s purposely ignoring the story because it´s too big for him.
@@kerryburns6041space lasers? Hahaha
@@1337murkNot very bright, are you ?
So he forks out 12 million pounds for doing nothing wrong,🤡🤡🤡
What did he do wrong then I’m curious?
Sleeping with a girl of legal age who boasted to her mates she’d slept with him?
@@PhilljagShe was not of the age of consent in her home jurisdiction, from which she was trafficked.
Let me make it abundantly clear. In Nigeria, the age of consent is 12. A person could tempt a 13 year old girl from the UK to travel there, and thereupon provide her 'services' to the rich and powerful. She herself may think she's having a great time. She may even boast to friends, who knows. Does that in any way excuse the crime?
@@Fordnan she was born in Sacramento California so not sure what your on about 🤣
Giuffre met Ghislaine Maxwell when working as a spa attendant at Donald Trump's private Mar-a-Lago club 🤣
@@Philljag It isn't where you're born, do you not understand? Do you think 12 year olds born in Nigeria are 'fair game'? She was trafficked from a state where the age of consent was 18. Trafficked. Why do you think Elizabeth the great was happy to spend £12 million to make it all go away? It wasn't just because it wasn't her money to begin with. No, the unpleasant man was in hot water, that's why.
£12,000,000, nothing wrong.?. 😂😂😂.
It was at this moment Jack realized "HE'D FCK'D UP". 😂😂😂
To compare harry and Andrew is so mental there just no words
It's intentional amd insidious, and alot of that wouldn't be happening (in their minds) if he had married a perfect "English Rose" smh
He was asked to go to US courts and explain himself. He was at some of the parties when the proven offences took place. Parties with under age girls.
What proven offences?
@@russellcarey2430 . The ones that got his host locked up .
My goodness this caller seriously needs help... he's totally bunkers for defending Andrew.
It's worth remembering that these callers weren't random vox pops people that LBC stopped in the street. They chose to call in because they thought they had a point worth making.
Haven't heard an interview go so bad since prince Andrew's interview
Andrew hasn't done anything wrong - apparently it's perfectly normal to cough up 12M quid to avoid a court-case when you've done nothing wrong !
I absolutely love how James breaks these callers down. It’s genius to watch!
Bully
@@LeeWes-gh6yp Explain.
James is the bully that is able to bully the bullies. I don’t know many other commentators with more empathy for others. He is the one that stays strong and protect the weak❤
Those two Royals are not comparable, them being lumped in together is so wrong.
Another delusional royalist who believes they can do no wrong 😂😂😂
You can hear the media narratives repeated verbatim.
Anyone with an ounce of common sense knows that when someone settles with an accuser of theirs out of court for millions, they're trying to shut them up.
The acusser also forwent her day in court for the money.!
@@tonyshortland8812The accuser isn't required to be beyond reproach. Probably shouldn't be too surprising that someone who was trafficked by Epstein as a teenager is maladjusted as an adult.
"But she took the money" changes nothing that comes before that.
He's going to be busy the rest of the day undoing all the knots he's tied himself into.
He was going to complain that the court of public opinion is unfair, then remembered that Andrew chose NOT to go through an ACTUAL court to resolve this
Same as his accuser decided to line her pockets instead of getting g what she believes is an abuser off the streets.
Goes both ways
@@cobieharrison1369 you're equating the victim to the abuser??
@@cobieharrison1369your comments are absolutely ridiculous; she was the victim
@@cobieharrison1369 Considering what £12m can do to change your life (and I don't know anything about her, nor what state her life was in). I can't say I blame her for taking a sure £12m over whatever could happen to her life after a trial (not to mention how it was possibly presented to her).
@@cobieharrison1369victim shaming much, Cobie?
"what he thinks he has or hasn't done, is very minor".
i spat my coffee out when he said that.
Better monitor this caller, especially around women in vulnerable positions wrt to him... He has some very peculiar sensibilities about blame and culpability.
And you have some very odd ones about justice, the law and being innocent before guilty.
@@ppo2424Innocent Prince Andrew pays 12 million quid and doesn't have his day in court despite being innocent.
Bwahahahahaha! 😂😂😂😂😂😂
That's what innocent people do and no mistake!
This caller should be identified and outed.
@@diverguy3556though andy pandy hasnt lost 12 million the british taxpayer has absolute disgrace Hail a republic 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Nah, he's just envious of what Randy Andy got up to.
Anyone who defends Prince Andrew should have their hard drive checked
Nothing worse than an apologist for a person who we all now is very dodgy. Unfortunately members of this awful family can get away with it because some people believe these people are somehow above us & the law.
She was 17 above the age of consent
@@JOEFABULOUS.Above the age of consent in the UK. Not elsewhere in the world, such as the US.
@@jonb4155 she claimed the offences happened in Britain her lawyers waited until the last minute to file so the court case would coincide with the Queens Diamond Jubilee it smacks of extortion
They literally are above the law.
@@JOEFABULOUS.it's not about her age, it was about whether she consented or not.
Lol that caller is a joker
Imagine being in the Royal Family and knowing that everything you do is micro-analysed, yet you actually believe you are really incredibly special....quite a conundrum.
Yes, no wonder they grow up incredibly weird. The monarchy is an abomination whichever way you consider it.
These guys.... at least they feel confident enough to try and debate this............... I feel no sympathy ;)
I wonder when he will ring back again. 🤣🤣🤣🤣.........................
James should teach media training, the guy is bulletproof
I wish he'd stayed on Newsnight! His talent for argument deconstruction is wasted on LBC. He should be taking politicians to task on a weekly basis.
The most impressive thing is how James spots every even very subtle hint of weakness in the opposer's argument and immediately goes to the counter attack often using their logic against them :)))
@@CipherNinjaX86 He just looks nasty on TV. I remember him before his
transformation, and I hated him!
He's a walking legislation target... constantly says things that aren't proven to people that call in and are bombarded with insults.. is he a friend of Iain Lee
@@CipherNinjaX86
Bbc is funded by the taxpayer and should be impartial. James is everything but impartial.
"What he [Prince Andrew] has or hasn't done is very minor."
Well, he was right about the minor part...
Isn't 17 above the age of consent
He’s done a few minors.
@@highdownmartin projecting your own fantasies ?
@@JOEFABULOUS.not in usa
@@jameswelsh4479 The incident in question happened in Britain when the plaintiff was 17, more than a year over the age of consent under British law.
I think this guy is just like Andrew
I thought the exact thing when he was talking. Him on radio and Andrew on television.
💯 Correct.
@@CalloCallay well said
Someone needs to check his hard drive...
They always defend each other.
So he paid out a shed load of money for his terrible behaviour for no reason.
Greetings Sir from North London. Simply amazing.... All the Facts given on Prince likes young women, Paying 12 Million to say nothing happened... Just using Logic ... Why did the Prince pay out for what if not Guilty of anything???? Muddy Waters
They paid because her lawyers waited until the last minute to file so the trial would coincide with the queens Diamond jubilee it was extortion
Last caller was absurd. His thinking was a total mess.
But, there it is isn't it? The guys thinking *WAS* a total mess, here he is defending the indefensible... why? A symptom of a greater problem in society, there are a growing number of people that believe a certain segment of the population, shouldn't face any consequences for their actions. Taken to the extreme, you get the absolute madness in the U.S. right now and Donald Trump... it's the same thing, just on a smaller scale. Everything starts off small though doesn't it?
Rather similar to the sort of thinking that resulted in brexit.
No thinking was harmed during the course of this call .
Cognitive dissonance
And this is a potential jury candidate or someone with the vote. The whole system needs reform.
This made me laugh when I heard it live, still does now. This conversation should be played in schools and colleges as a concise way of winning an argument through clear and calm logic in the face of B.S., again James O’brien proves his intellectual worth and comedic ability.
Dispatches from the U.S.: So refreshing to hear about a different old creep for a change!
I don't often agree with James but he is right in this case. "Prince" Andrew is a disgrace.
i'm sad to say that i have an "ex - friend" who is now a convicted paedo.. if i ever met him again, i can't say what i would do as it would get me banned from youtube.. but in a nutshell he is someone who i would describe as no longer a friend.
Well said Mr James thanks
Jack was not only arguing his case against James, he was arguing against his own thought process. WOW. Jack was from Bedford DID he vote for Nadine I wonder?.
Well i cant beleive that feller phoned in with that load of nonsense coming out his mouth !!!!!!
Remember the interview, Andrew paid someone he never met or knew £12 million, he has, never met or knew me, where is my £12 million I'm still waiting
This is a classic. One for the records.
Photographs of Andrew in a car with prince William and the paper said that maybe Andrew is being let back into the family firm NO WAY should this be allowed to happen the man is just a complete and useless waste of space
The pictures of Charles with his best buddy Jimmy saville are more interesting🤣🤣
Like the rest of the family.
One of the world's richest families living at public expense!!!!
I have watched my cat do that to mice.😂
Why are Harry put in the same category as Andrew 😮😮😮😮some caller's are hypocrites and double standard 🤔
The British right wing press have linked them and the issue. The caller is programmed by reading lies and trash
Reminds me of the way people used to defend the priests.
Didn't charles write a letter, or character reference for a priest in court. Who would have thought it?
They still do.. Not a single media outlet opposes the superstitious nonsense that permeates our society.. Quite the opposite. They demand it be respected.
💯 Similarities.
So sad.
@@CalloCallayworks the same with tory/brexit politicians...
Funny how James was educated at a Catholic school full of priests as teachers
Great work James. Love you man. Respect.
I’m starting to really like you James you can’t argue with facts my friend take my hat of to you sir
Honestly, the mind boggles how these people ring in with opinions that don't stand up to a modicum of scrutiny
Caller decries the court of public opinion. But that's the only court that Andrew is going to face.
Some people are lost beyond all logical reason. James at his best, stripping the veneer from the ridiculous
I believe the caller's reasoning is lost simply through unswerving loyalty; the notion that the Royals are beyond reproach and how dare people suggest otherwise. Bit like those who still refuse to hear a word against Boris Johnson....🤣
Does Jack work for Prince Andrew, or IS IT THE ESTABLISHMENT??.............................
How embarrassing for the guys friends and family. 😂
How?
This 2023 nothing is embarrassing.
Kudos to James O Brien to be so patient and stay firmly calm...the caller could give anyone an instant ulcer in their stomach just by listening to his royal arsekissing sychophant opinion😢
the lynch mob can't touch Andrew so they would rather cover up their defeat and plead for his innocence.
James O Brien you are brilliant and on the ball
I don’t blame Prince Andrew I blame that spicy Americano pizza at the pizza express in Woking. He’s the real mastermind behind this
In a parallel universe Jame O'Brien is a criminal prosecutor with a 100% success rate because he is a master when it comes to turning the defemdemts words against themselves and pointing out the ridiculoiuness of their argument, without them even realising until its too late and the judge utters the immortal words "guilty, take them down".
Jesus. Gush gush gush.
To be fair it is not difficult to destroy brexit voters.
Don’t drink before you drive and Think before you dial!
Thinking is in short supply in 2023.
“The oppressor would not be so strong if he did not have accomplices among the oppressed.” - Simone de Beauvoir
Look's like Prince Andrew paid someone to phone LBC.
Besides Victoria Harvey
Someone needs to check this guys internet search history.
i love how James is handling this, well done mate!
Prince Andrew, Donald Trump, what is wrong with people that they can defend the indefensible?
Christian's
I don't understand how these people can string a sentence together. They not only can't recognise vile people. They don't recognise their own vileness.
All they care about is getting away with it..
By Tory 'standards', and I use this word very loosely and probably incorrectly, Andrew walks on water, just like his mates, Epstein and Trump.
The royals are literally immune from prosecution.
You know you've stuck your foot in it when your call gets it's own TH-cam video.
James, your logic is impeccable. Bravo Sir!
I'm no fan of James but he is bang on here. Imagine thinking going on his show to try and support Prince Andrew was ever going to go well.
I wash myself with a rag on a stick
🎉
How Royalty exist in 2023 is baffling
Absolute brilliant takedown
Absolutely fantastic. 😂 The ease with which James ripped this idiot apart is something to behold
And that is the perfect example of someone who thinks they’re smarter than they are, and is trying so desperately to have a different opinion to others to stand out that they put no thought into what that opinion is
This man! Such an apologist! He would rather support Andrew than understand the reasons why Prince Harry left the Royal family!
I love how he's playing with him like a mouse and grinning like he's having a great time.
Welldone James for cornering him
That was savage, kudos to James for basically haybailing him. Hopefully the lad might have a think about his position
If Andrew hasn't done anything wrong then how come a certain gentleman bought his house for £3 million ABOVE the asking price ? Such incredible generosity always comes at a price. Three of Andrew's ex mates have done jail time and he was warned by his security staff to stay away from all of them.
Loads of my freinds have been in jail or are still in jail? That makes me a bad person?
