Welcome to News-ish with Seann Walsh and Mark Simmons. In this episode, the guys learn about the difference between hard and soft Brexit (sort of) and they question what items should be kept on top of the fridge. This is hard hitting journalism at its best…

Seann’s mum seems to think she has hit the big time in her ‘Local Gossip’ section, so she takes full advantage of her slot by promoting her friend’s charity row down the River Thames in London.
Comedian Jake Lambert has another go at presenting the Weather Report for Seann and Mark, after they cut him off rather unceremoniously last week.

Episode 2 - Jake Lambert 2.0

Stand up sensation and TV personality Seann Walsh presents News-ish – an ill-informed round up of the week’s events that makes ‘fake news’ look like the BBC World Service. The in-depth analysis of world events is made all the more surreal by Seann’s co-host, comedian Mark Simmons who brings his own brand of ignorance with features like “I didn’t know that” – a series of common knowledge facts that Mark genuinely finds astonishing.

This is a show that aims high and scores hilariously low – think ‘Newsnight meets An idiot Abroad’. With regulars like Celebrity Weather (a gratuitous calling up of Seann’s showbiz mates to ask them what the weather is like where they are) and ‘Village Life’ – a roundup of parochial tedium in Seann’s Mum’s cul-de-sac- News-ish is the perfect antidote to the actual news.

With Seann’s infectious humour & Mark’s consummate one-liners, the boys dissect broadsheet and tabloid headlines for your entertainment. Mark’s inability to grasp reality is a rare and always hilarious gift. They both have their own quirky take on the news stories and Seann and Mark’s interpretation of the colourful characters in the public eye.
