If you absolutely can't live without your full-price hardback being personally inscribed, that we can do. ~Also marking our sixth birthday is my brand new book, The Prisoner of Windsor, set in a strange land that may nonetheless seem oddly familiar. There will be many more anniversaries to come. Thank you for a terrific and spectacular six years. To become a member of The Mark Steyn Club, or to sign up a friend, please click here. But there's also me riffing on Never Trumpers and the Big Jew Weather Machine Tal Bachman singing a great Canadian song and the late Greg Ham from Men At Work on a great Australian song - plus an excerpt from our very first Tale for Our Time, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's proto-jihadist Tragedy of the Korosko, and a Canadian free-speech heroine on how it's so much more fun on the right. A theme of civilisational self-confidence runs through the hour, from Douglas Murray on The Strange Death of Europe to Rudyard Kipling's Recessional via Tunku Abdul Rahman on diversity. There are substantive interview excerpts and throwaway jests, plus early examples of our live music specials, video poems and audio adventures. Today's audio special reprises some favourite moments from our first year, with yours truly on stage and screen, on wireless and website. On the other hand, if you're a First Day Founding Member, these may be some items you missed first time round - or are certainly worth hearing again, as they stand the test of time. If you've just joined our Club, this is a great way to riffle through the treasure trove of our back catalogue. However, we'll make up for it with a few archival extras as the week proceeds. ~This weekend marked the sixth birthday of The Mark Steyn Club, which was, I have to admit, somewhat overshadowed by the Coronation. If you're in the Antipodes, you may prefer to watch at 5pm Aussie Eastern via our new partners at ADH TV. The action starts at 8pm British Summer Time/3pm North American Eastern. If you're not still on one almighty bender to launch the new Carolean age, I'll be back on the air tonight with a special edition of The Mark Steyn Show. Happy Coronation Bank Holiday to you and yours, depending on where in the Commonwealth you are.
