Joey Skaggs interviewed by Mark Borkowski about creative dissent on BBC Radio 4
OUTRAGE INC, an audio documentary by Mark Borkowski, aired on BBC Radio 4, August 23, 2025:
“From Suffragette arsonists to soup on sunflowers – why the stunt still matters.
Legendary publicist Mark Borkowski takes a no-prisoners look at the history of the protest stunt – the noisy, theatrical interventions that have rattled the establishment for over a century.
With fascinating examples from the BBC archive and interviews with Led By Donkeys, The Centre for Political Beauty, Joey Skaggs, The Yes Men, veteran activist Jamie Kelsey Fry and Clare Farrell from XR.”
“We criminalise the political stunt at our peril. It is a crucial art form that is impossible to ignore”, Mark Borkowski, The Guardian, 20 Aug 2025.

“Group Takes Credit For Throwing Sex Toys At WNBA Games And Reveals Its Motives,” by Pocharapon Neammanee, Huffpost, August 8, 2025.
The stunt somehow seems even stupider now, and to make matters worse, Donald Trump Jr. chimed in.
Cryptocurrency creators are now taking credit for throwing sex toys onto the court at multiple WNBA games, saying they intended to stir up controversy and promote their memecoin.
The self-confessed dildo-throwers say they launched the memecoin Green Dildo Coin on the Ethereum blockchain on July 28, a day before the first dildo-tossing incident. After Barstool Sports reported on the group’s identity on Wednesday, the price of the coin skyrocketed.

“Working out in public can be scary! Killer Fitness embraces the horror with ‘Slashercise’,” by Lina Lecaro, Los Angeles Times, July 30, 2025.
Killer Fitness in Burbank offers horror-themed workouts like “Slashercise,” combining fitness with spooky props and aesthetics.
On a recent 90-degree morning, a dozen or so gals and a couple guys of varying ages and sizes, some wearing flamboyant retro leg warmers and spandex, stand outside of a hot pink and black Burbank storefront.
They’re all about to fight for their lives and test their endurance during an hour-long workout like no other. While they jump, kick and punch, menacing monsters and serial killers (Pinhead from “Hellraiser,” Freddy Krueger from “A Nightmare on Elm Street”) appear behind them, looped on a giant video screen.
Will they survive Slashercise?
