531b. Eni Aluko Just Got CANCELED: Why I Blocked Her Number

heretics. · 2025-05-01

Eni Aluko was the darling of the woke establishment—until one comment about Ian Wright brought it all crashing down. After our explosive debate on Heretics, she sent me a barrage of private messages, revealing far more than she intended. What started as a polite disagreement became one of the most controversial moments in sports punditry.

Why was Eni really forced out of the Women’s Football Awards? Why did the media turn on one of their own? And how did she become the target of the very outrage culture she once championed?

In this video, I break down:

- The viral moment that got Eni cancelled
- Her private messages to me—and what they reveal
- Why her comment about Ian Wright was the wrong target at the wrong time
- The silent rebellion inside football against woke orthodoxy
- What this saga tells us about race, gender, and power in modern media

This is more than a media scandal—it's a story about identity, hypocrisy, and the fragile rules of the woke game. And for once, Eni Aluko wasn’t holding the cards.

What makes you a heretic? Journalist Andrew Gold believes that, in an age of group-think and tribes, we need heretics - those who use unconventional wisdom to speak out against their own groups, from cancelled comedians and radical feminists to cult defectors and vigilantes hunting deviants.
Learn from my guests how to rebel, think differently and resist social contagion. From Triggernometry's Francis Foster and the world's most cancelled man Graham Linehan to Robbie Williams and gender critical atheist Richard Dawkins. These are the people living with the weight of their own community's disappointment on their shoulders.
