Trust in media and politics has collapsed, and the world feels more fractured than ever. It's never been more important understand what's shaping our society and our culture, but it's also never been harder.

That's why we're creating Lamestream. It's a new, fully independent, weekly podcast and newsletter that tackles the crisis in media.

Hosted by award-winning journalists Osman Faruqi and Scott MItchell, every week Lamestream will break down how how media shapes news, culture, politics and current affairs.

Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
