Following on from Robin Ince's resignation from #InfiniteMonkeyCage ⁰, @rebeccawatson ¹ delves into a a bit of a blind spot:
> But why, in all this reporting, did Brian [Cox] not volunteer any kind of statement on his friend and co-host of sixteen years being ousted by the BBC? Why did no news outlet even seem to ask?

Reading Robin Ince’s posts about his resignation and wondering what’s next. The BBC appear to want to continue with the Infinite Monkey Cage despite it being Robin’s creation. I don’t think they realise what the program was, it the fact that it revolved around Robin and Brian’ chemistry. The Infinite Monkey Cage at the BBC is dead, like it or not.
And who would listen to a re-launched show anyway? It won’t be me despite having listened from the beginning, and I’m guessing a significant proportion on its long term listenership will be the same. It’s not the infinite monkey cage without Robin. And I can’t see Brian Cox continuing. #InfiniteMonkeyCage
Well done Robin Ince 👏
