LBC caller struggles to explain the term ‘woke’ to James O’Brien as he criticises it
An LBC caller struggled to explain the term “woke” to James O’Brien when criticising it on Friday, leading to ridicule from many online.

He then attempted to explain why having to face “insincere woke agenda courses” in his previous job led to him disliking the term.
Unfortunately for the caller, O’Brien wasn’t having his argument and pulled it apart live on air, at one point calling him “envious”.
