Social Distancer episodes

  • Episode 54 - Live and Let Die
    The Welsh government make slight adjustments to their lockdown, teeing up BoJo for Sunday to do similar, and probably go a bit further. I talk about meeting up with friends while shouting from our parked car, a lovely day on Dartmoor, Trump's surreal visit to a factory and the Vera Lynn banger. *Contains swearing*

  • Episode 53 - The Y'know Show
    I have edited together all the hundreds of times I've said 'Y'know' into a rhythm of machine gun furiousness that will almost certainly permanently scar you! Only kidding! I do a passable Brian Blessed impression, predict BoJo Bonson Johnson's roadmap and question whether some of the high standards of the British newspaper industry have slipped. *Contains swearing*

  • Episode 52 - Starmer! BoJo! FIGHT!
    Sir Kier Starmer makes a lovely string of sausages from the BoJo mincemeat he harvested at PMQs. ***LISTEN VIA ANCHOR*** to hear Tony Allen and Hugh Masekela to celebrate Tony Allen's life and commemorate his death. R.I.P. *Contains swearing*

  • Episode 51 - The Highest Deaths in Europe

    The UK overtakes Italy as the country with the highest number of confirmed deaths from COVID-19 in Europe. Only the US have more confirmed deaths. The ONS figures, and those from Scotland and Northern Ireland brings the number to 32,313. The FT Economic Editor, Chris Giles is estimating 53,800 deaths up to today, extrapolating from ONS and other official data. *Contains swearing*

  • Episode 49 - The Only Way is NHSX
    With the UK death toll about to take over Italy's, I compare tests in both countries. Meanwhile there's a stench at No.10: Marc Warner, the brother of Ben Warner - data analyst for Vote Leave and now BoJo's data lad, who attends SAGE meetings with Dom Cummins - has landed the lucrative NHSX contract over Apple & Google collaborating to make the COVID-19 tracker app!

  • Episode 48 - Emily in Tokyo (Summer is here!)

    Emily gives an update on life in Tokyo where the government have extended the lockdown by a month. Meanwhile I'm impressed by Irish Taoiseach Leo Varadkar's roadmap out of lockdown and I compare him to the scoundrels representing the UK government. *Contains swearing*

  • Episode 47 - Public Enemy Number 1
    Matty Hancock spins his way to claiming over 120,000 tests, but it's not true. No surprise there. They tested 73,000 people yesterday! Also, I name and shame the bozo who sold PPE assigned for NHS workers, record the sound of a river and do a pretty good Lincoln impression! *Contains swearing*
