Welcome to the Cancelled courtroom Donald John Trump, reality star, businessman, former president and current presidential candidate.
Donald is no stranger to a real courtroom but today is all about his petty crimes like drinking 12 diet cokes a day, claiming bodies are like batteries and not thinking through the logistics of a particular wall.
Now, if you genuinely tried to do a Cancelled episode about Mr Donald, you’d be going for a decade so instead the episode covers SOME of the bizarre you may have forgotten about.
Plus, more of your lazy gewl stories.
Listen to Donald Trump Part Two: Yelling At A Child & The Most Embarrassing Tantrum In History, here.

The Olympics
Drew Barrymore
It Ends With Us Drama

A former First Lady putting her story to publication may not be unusual, but Melania Trump's memoir feels hotly anticipated.
With very little shared ahead of its release, except of course her pro-abortion revelation, we've all been left wondering... what is she saying with this book?
And is the timing of this memoir release suspicious? Were on the case.

Australians woke up on Saturday morning to the news that the US Supreme Court had voted to overturn the constitutional right for American women to access abortion. Amelia Lester is an Australian journalist living in Washington D.C, she joins us to help unpack what’s happening on the ground over in the U.S.
Plus, a few weeks ago, we had a vibrator dilemma that broke the Internet. Now, there’s another one…
And we’ve got our Jessie back at last. So, what DID she do on her holidays, how much do cocktails cost after inflation? And what does she want you to know about what it's really like traveling in a post-Covid world?
