Description

From the makers of The Bugle, this is a weekly show that skips the news pages and takes a sideways glance at the nonsense contained within the culture, celebrity, tech, science and advice sections of the news.


Alice Fraser is joined every show by two great comics from across the globe, bringing 30 minutes of smart satire alongside juvenile nonsense!

The spiderweb thing - In 1995, NASA funded research that tested the various toxicity levels of various drugs — including marijuana, caffeine, and sedatives — to determine what effects they have on spiders spinning webs. https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/webs-spun-by-lsd-tripping-spiders/

Has anyone dubbed Mr Hunter "the Peditor"? If not, why not? I'm out of the loop.

What a fantastic companion to the Bugle! Much easier on the psyche than Zaltor the Merciful on a pun-run. 😌 *sigh*
