Later this week we'll be doing another video edition of Mark's Mailbox in which I answer questions from members of The Mark Steyn Club.

Mark's Week in ReviewA Se'nnight of Steyn, June 19-25
In case you missed it, here's how the last seven days looked to Mark The Mark Steyn ShowA Continent in Existential CrisisWe're proud to present a brand new edition of The Mark Steyn Show. These programs, along with SteynPosts, Tales for Our Time and much else at SteynOnline, are made possible through the support of members of The Mark Steyn Club, for which we are extremely grateful. In this episode, Mark talks to Douglas Murray about his new book The Strange of Death of Europe: Immigration, Identity, Islam, published in America this week and which Mark describes as "profound". Steyn and Murray survey a continent in unprecedented demographic transformation, and roam far and wide in their analysis from the East End of London to the Mediterranean refugee camps, from far northern Sweden to the tomb of Charles Martel. We think you'll find this show worth your time: You can find Douglas Murray's must-read book here, and at bookstores everywhere. Among the benefits of Mark Steyn Club membership is that you can... Steyn on the WorldA Tale of Two Johnsons
My old friends at The Spectator have a meditation on Britain's nightmare capital by Rod Liddle. It has an arresting opening: London, city of the damned. City of incendiary tower blocks, jihadi mentals trying to slit your throat, yokels from Somerset up for the day to enjoy a spot of ramming Muslims in a white van. City of Thornberry, Abbott and Corbyn. City of Boris. City of anti-Semitic marches to commemorate Al Quds. City of Isis flags and where, in most boroughs, white British people are a ... Steyn on AmericaFifteen Lawyers in Search of a Crime
Further to my observations on Deep State dinner theatre, the "Russia investigation" show goes on, undeterred by the lack of any evidence of actual crime: The more obvious the absence of any crime to investigate, the bigger the investigation gets. As I've said before, in Hitchcockian terms, this is a thriller without a MacGuffin: instead, it's one big MacNuffin - unless you count the "collusion" between government bureaucracies and the Hillary campaign in surveilling their political opposition ... On the AirDeep-State Dinner Theatre
On Wednesday morning, Mark started the day with Steve, Ainsley and Brian on "Fox & Friends" discussing the Tuesday night before in the Georgia special election. His little bit of phrase-making appears to be catching on. The Washington Times: Conservative commentator Mark Steyn says Democrats came away empty-handed in Georgia's special election because the party as a whole is obsessed with "deep state dinner theater." Georgia Republican Karen Handel stunned challenger Jon Ossoff with a 52 ... On the AirOne-Way MulticulturalismOn Tuesday night, Mark joined Tucker Carlson live on Fox News to discuss the latest terror attack in Brussels, with a postscript on gender identity.

"Never complain, never explain" was Disraeli's advice, and that holds as good in our touchy age of instant Twitterstorms and politically correct eggshells as it did when he first commended it to Queen Victoria. It's good advice for the Queen's viceroys, too. Consider by way of a cautionary tale the Rt Hon David Johnston, Governor General of Canada. Full disclosure: I am not a great fan of His Excellency, as I thought he behaved disgracefully in evicting my old boss Conrad Black from the Privy ... Steyn on CultureAction and Reaction

Steyn's Song of the WeekTo Sir, With Love
Don Black was a guest on The Mark Steyn Show a few weeks back to celebrate the 50th anniversary of "Born Free" becoming the first British song to win an Oscar. 1967 turned out to be a pretty good year for Don because he also wrote what proved to be Billboard's Number One record of the year in America - which isn't bad for an East End boy and tyro lyricist still recovering from his first attempted career (stand-up comedy). This second entry from the Black songbook was introduced to the world ... Mark at the MoviesLes Invasions Barbares
For St-Jean-Baptiste Day - Quebec's soi-disant fĂȘte nationale - here's one of my favourite QuĂ©bĂ©cois movies of recent years - and one which I always used to get a lot of mail about whenever I mentioned it on The Rush Limbaugh Show. "What was that film about the Canadian health system you talked about? Where can I get it?" Well, it's called Les Invasions Barbares and it won the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film in 2004. But don't let that put you off. In English, it's Barbarian Invasions, and ... The Mark Steyn ClubA Gaudy Lie?
