We read the papers so you don’t have to. Today: Yes Sir! French President Macron goes full thirst trap on the front page of The Telegraph – and Obama’s getting praised for his flat tummy too. Late life crisis. The ninety-year-olds turning it around in their twilight years. Plus – Check you out! The Telegraph is taking on the big issues again: why self-checkouts are apparently terrible. 

Alex von Tunzelmann is joined by The Bunker podcast host Andrew Harrison and comedian Matt Green.
