“I’ve fallen for a wimp,” Liz Jones reveals– Are middle-aged men in crisis? – Fashionistas abandon ‘woke’


Listen Later

We read the papers so you don’t have to. Today: Miranda is giddy to discover one final nutty column from Liz Jones in the Daily Mail. Meanwhile, Alex is concerned about the state of middle-aged men, as Stig Abell and Bryan Johnson recount their mid-life crises in The Times. Plus – Gráinne is shocked to learn that the fashion world isn’t actually woke, as The Telegraph cheers on the return of fur at fashion week.

Miranda Sawyer is joined by historian and wannabe boffin Alex von Tunzelmann, and BAFTA-nominated writer and host of The Way They Were, Gráinne Maguire.
