I don't know who he is.
I will reserve judgment until I watch an episode with him presenting it.

At least it's not Alex Scott or Clare Balding - or perish the thought, both.
Just follow the crowd, it's what I always do.

Been a couple on already, not surprisingly.Not yet but I'm sure someone will be along with the 'box ticking' line soon enough. Any high profile media gig that doesn't go to a white bloke gets the same response. 'It's not based on merit just filling quotas'.
The problem with superficial arguments like that is that it obscures any debate over his 'merit' beyond his skin colour.

The appointment of Amol Rajan as University Challenge presenter prompts the perennial question: Why do some people get all the jobs?brokenbottleboy.substack.com
Amol Nitrate: Why the BBC is so high on Amol Rajan's client journalism
The rise and rise of Rajan continues as he's given a plum spot at the Today programme and a primetime interview series

Can we get some likes to show your approval of the views contained in the video lads?

Not clicking that
Who on earth goes looking for these videos and even weirder what title do they appear under.
Very strange

It’s youtube settings, I didn't seek it out.
Someone posted a video of this bloke in the politics forum the other day which I watched out of curiousity , after posting this thread and reading about Rajan naturally it pops up on my feed.
