Mike Graham's all-caps Weekend Wind-Up outpaces his whole channel

Iran, borders and Burnham share one shouted title, and that single upload is moving faster than UKLIVE usually does across everything it has posted.

Posted on Sunday, "“WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?” | Mike Graham on Iran, Borders & Burnham |Mike's Weekend Wind-Up" is already close to 80,000 views, and it has barely had a day.

A new upload on UKLIVE normally opens with a few thousand views. This one is running about fourteen times that pace. On its own, it is also moving faster than the entire channel usually manages in a day, even with the rest of the back catalog counted.

The Weekend Wind-Up is Graham's end-of-week slot, and this edition stretches from the Middle East to Britain's borders to a single surname. Graham built his name on talk radio before taking his opinions online under a banner that calls the channel "The Home of Common Sense," and the title keeps that voice. The headline question comes in capital letters and quotation marks.
