Just Buffering - A light-hearted look at the week's news

Politics, Profits & Prosecco


Listen Later

In this week's episode of Just Buffering, Steve Hyland and Gordon Baxter take a light-hearted look at a packed week of news, opinion and everyday observations.

From the latest developments in UK politics — including questions around Keir Starmer's leadership and shifting support within Parliament — to the ongoing global tensions and their impact closer to home, nothing is off limits.

The pair also dive into big business profits, asking whether banks and energy companies are cashing in while households feel the squeeze, and what that might mean for the wider economy.

There's discussion around local elections, rising fines, and whether society is changing in ways we're only just starting to notice.

And, as always, it wouldn't be Just Buffering without a few lighter moments — including superstitions, the secrets to living longer, and the rather unfortunate incident involving 20 tonnes of prosecco on the M4.

It's news, views and a few laughs along the way from two experienced broadcasters who've seen it all before.
