Had to crack out another episode this week to deal with the Farmer protests, and an interesting clash at PMQs. Then - in the week of International Men's Day - The Man Whisperer rejoins us to chat about the big issues facing blokes and young men in particular (I also make some immature jokes about porn).

This week Simon Evans joins us to ask if Labour have turned the economy around....and are now steering it into a wall at high speed. We also look at Trump's picks and compare the glitzy nature of US politics versus our 'Colin from Accounts' era. Then there's the assisted dying bill, where we assess the nuances while also making cheap jokes.

The brilliant Andrew Doyle returns to ask whether young women voted Trump because they hate themselves? (no) We also look at what it means for the UK. Will Starmer cosy up to Donald or will it all end like the final scene of Love Actually? In the Patreon only bonus section we ask whether Justin Welby should resign - also whether he's too old for a name like 'Justin'.

A momentous week. First up I reflect on seeing Kemi make a mixed debut as I attended PMQS and realised the Tories really are a small bunch these days. Then it's the US election and the incredible return of Donald Trump. I reflect on everything the Democrats did wrong and why insulting the electorate until they change their mind isn't necessarily the best strategy.

Rachel Fairburn makes a welcome return to discuss the fallout from Labour's budget, the coronation of queen Kemi and whether Kamala will beat Trump by stealth. We also discuss why the friendliest sounding pubs are the most violent and why people who return from short periods abroad with new accents are the worst humans alive.

I brought in the big gun Iain to discuss a huuuuuge (copyright Donald Trump) week for UK and US politics. First we discuss the budget and Labour's inability to define working people or exactly who will benefit in the long run. After that we look at Kemi as the likely next Tory leader. Then it's over the pond to look at the final stages of the Presidential race and why maybe comedians aren't the best booking.

Big old week of news so I cast my eye back on Donald taking on the Labour Party while the same boring old celebs trot out for Kamala. I also ask if Tucker Carlson is a bit weird. Then there's Wes Streeting's attempts to ask for suggestions to make the NHS better. I mainly advocate hot nurses.

Very funny episode this week as Baroness Hazarika gets lucky to join me in the first week for a while where Labour haven't been s***ing the bed. We talk about the fights they're willing to have with the Right and Left in the upcoming budget. We also talk male objectification and whether MSM have a hypocritical blind-spot. In the Patreon only section we talk about why Trump flipping burgers is a genius move.

I was delighted to have big time Konstantin Kisin back on the show this week. We both worried that Labour might say they're big business while simultaneously scaring the crap out of investors. We also spoke about why Elon was not allowed to Britain but might be allowed into space.

Delighted to welcome the most Italian sounding person of all time to this week's podcast. Vittorio had some strong opinions about Phillip Schofield and also a stunning theory as to Sue Grey's murky past.

I'm not sure there's ever been so much to cover from a three day period. From Starmer's 6k refund, to Lord Alli's investigation, giving away the Chagos Islands, a drop in investment and private school numbers.....the Labour Party have been BUSY.

This week I had the lovely Erich Mcilroy back on the show. Erich is fully plotted up the US election and which way the wind is blowing over the pond. But before that we spoke about the weirdness of this year's Tory party conference and some of the more arresting statements by Kemi Badenoch and Jenrick Lamar.

100% had to do a Breaking News this week after Starmer's sausage accidentally slipped out. But it's not just the silly stuff, Labour have serious political issues unravelling and not a lot to say about it. We also look ahead to the Tory conference and the concept of 'having a quiet one'. Very quiet.

This week the very funny Ria Lina joins me to cast our eye over yet more embarrassment for the Labour Party. We also discuss the charges against P Diddy and consider whether celebrity men are just plain wronguns.

Podcast favourite Dom Frisby rejoins this week as we ponder Starmer selling out for far too little money.

Had to do another episode this week, following the US Presidential Debate and Donald Trump emerging as the guardian of canines and felines. But I ask whether American voters will be swayed by the nonsense? I also look at Labour's junk food ban and wonder why we can't hold people to account for eating too much.

Marcus returns this week (and there's a bombshell reveal at the end as to his current position on Brexit). We talk about Labour's terrible handling of the Winter Fuel allowance changes and whether Ed Davey (Ed Samey anyone?) provides meaningful opposition.

Triggernometry's Francis Foster joins me this week as we bicker (flirt?) our way through a torrid week for Labour. We ask whether the public are buying all of Starmer's 'black holes'. We also discuss the Oasis ticket debacle and conclude that old people are tired and young people don't like music. Francis also informs me of dark forces within the comedy industry trying to cancel his gigs...

I'm up at the Edinburgh Fringe but felt like I had to respond to the glitzy luvvie fest that was the US Democratic Committee. Lots of rappers and jokes and about Donald Trump's penis, but did Kamala deliver the goods or just more stuff for people to meme in years to come?

This is a ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ episode. The final section about Dominic Frisby's musical podcast series 'Kisses on a Postcard ' alone is brilliant. I really recommend this podcast.

Why is not upsetting people on Twitter so important? 07:50?
DeltaX
Love this podcast! Round #2 for Geoff & Alistair would be great (please?)
Rob Forte
The same Russell Kane who stated the cancel culture wasn't an issue, while also stating he deleted any social media posts older than 6 months just in case.......
Lee Coote
Great pod, some stuff I agree with, some not so much but everyones different. 4 stars!
