This week we talk about money-grabbing Westminster politicians, the Austrian lockdown for the unvaccinated (turned into a full lockdown after we recorded), and the cancellation of a train line upgrade between the East Midlands and Leeds – which is somewhere in the North, isn’t it? Joining us are the perils of recording a topical podcast. Image...

There’s a whiff in the air as we discuss the government’s plans to pour sewage into our rivers (Is this right?). At least we’ll be able to fly away cheaply, as air passenger duty is relaxed under a budget that has money for a Beatles museum, beer brewers and even Whitehall. And lest we sound...

Keir Starmer headed down to Brighton this week to show the Corbynites what for at Labour’s first conference since the general election in 2019. Did he succeed? Are the Conservatives still “scum”? And just who is Andy McDonald? Joining us are the answers to at least some of those questions. Image based on Rallying in...

With our familiar promptness we release a podcast in time for the 20-year-and-one-week anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks. We also discuss the Conservative plans to fund social care, and Labour’s subsequent bounce in the polls. Joining us is a star-spangled banner. Image based on Center Point, October 2014 by Phil Dolby

This week we discuss the fallout from the Taliban’s takeover of Afghanistan’s government, media commentary on Plymouth shooter Jake Davison, and OnlyFans’ decision to stop hosting pornographic content. Joining us is a content platform that Jazza is somehow absent from. Image based on Dominic Raab and Mike Pompeo, August 2019 by GPA Photo Archive

With an absence of any interesting news, we decide to engage in some baseless speculation about what the rest of Boris Johnson’s premiership looks like. With three predictions each, who will be proven right? Joining us are some lukewarm takes. Image credit: Boris the Clown shot by Matt Brown

In this episode Jazza and Jimmy extensively review the BBC interview with Dom Cummings and inevitably descend into 2016-style Brexit head banging. After that we look at the government’s attempt at charging journalists for exposing state secrets, such as the ex-health secretary Matt Hancock’s clinching video. Finally, two ageing millennials swap weary notes on the...

In this week’s podcast we’re discuss home-comings, starting with England’s unlocking on 19 July as most Covid-19 restrictions ease. Is it a good idea? Should we still wear masks? Will we soon be sent home again? Prepare for speculation. Those certainly coming home include American and British troops leaving Afghanistan after 20 years of unsuccessful...

This week, Jazza learns what a clinch is and wonders just how Jimmy has managed to avoid the offensively graphic leaked images of disgraced former health secretary Matt Hancock and his bit on the side. Also discussed is the lack of privilege of white boys on school meals, as well as the technologically-stunted launch of...

This week we dribble further out of our comfort zones with a discussion on England football manager Gareth Southgate’s recent interventions on patriotism. After a cross over to cricketer Ollie Robinson’s historical problematic tweets, we hammer it into the net with a look at the G7 meeting in lovely St Ives. Joining us are our...
