  • So Who *Should* Pay More Tax? - Feat. Vittorio Angelone

    So Who *Should* Pay More Tax? - Feat. Vittorio Angelone
    Nov 4 2025
    Was a pleasure to welcome back Vittorio for this week's show, as I took the advantage of a younger man's perspective and asked exactly who should be taxed more (spoiler alert, not me). We also respond to mad article in Vogue suggesting young women are 'embarrassed' about having boyfriends, where we lament not being fully paid up members the patriarchy.

  • IS THIS GOVT CURSED OR JUST NOT VERY GOOD? - Feat. Mark Steel

    IS THIS GOVT CURSED OR JUST NOT VERY GOOD? - Feat. Mark Steel
    Oct 29 2025
    Mark Steel returns this week to shed light on Labour's lowest ever polling, as we contemplate if they're unlucky or just a bit crap? Mark also nearly tempts me other to the Leftie dark side as he puts forward an argument for why we should all gang up on the super rich (especially those giving human jobs to computers). In the Patreon only we pick the bones out of Sarah Pochin's comments about adverts and race.

  • BREAKING NEWS - Labour Not Very Caerphil

    BREAKING NEWS - Labour Not Very Caerphil
    Oct 24 2025
    I respond Labour's battering in Caerphilly (and the Tories dismal 2%). I also investigate Farage's flounce out of PMQs and ask whether it's political or performative. The Lib Dems get some flak too, as it turns out they may have been feeding Starmer advance warning of their questions. And then there's the question of the small boats hokey-pokey...

  • THE PROBLEM WITH ED MILIBAND - Featuring Simon Evans

    THE PROBLEM WITH ED MILIBAND - Featuring Simon Evans
    Oct 21 2025
    Simon Evans returns this week, on blistering form as we get our teeth into Ed Miliband's precarious career, Zach Polanski's loose grip on economics and Prince Andrew's creative relationship with the truth. I also provide a happy epilogue for the 'Aldershot Debacle' and - in the Patron only - we discuss how silly AI clips might subvert our democracy!

  • BREAKING NEWS - Rachel Ready To Make Us Poorer

    BREAKING NEWS - Rachel Ready To Make Us Poorer
    Oct 16 2025
    I recorded this in the midst of being cancelled by the people of Aldershot!! In more real world affairs, I discuss Rachel Reeves 'rolling the pitch' to make us all poorer (again). Then I dissect a fiery PMQs which didn't quite last the pace, and why spy scandals need to be sexy.

  • STARMER UNDER THE MICROSCOPE - with Francis Foster

    STARMER UNDER THE MICROSCOPE - with Francis Foster
    Oct 14 2025
    Francis returns for this week's episode as we ponder whether Keir Starmer will be able to escape questions over china and income tax (or whether he had any positive role in the middle-east whatsoever). Then we discuss whether younger women, fuelled by Tik-tok, have become actively hostile to men (or to put it more bluntly 'do birds hate blokes?')
    In the Patreon only section we respond to Lenny Henry's call for slavery reparations, but end up talking about unusual first names.

  • *BREAKING NEWS* - Trump's Peace & Kemi's Speech

    *BREAKING NEWS* - Trump's Peace & Kemi's Speech
    Oct 10 2025
    I talk about Donald Trump seemingly having found a way through the middle-east peace process (and how reluctant some people might be to acknowledge that!) I also discuss Starmer's growing unease over the collapse of the Chinese spy trial - govt's not easy eh Keir? Then I finish by analysing what was seen by many as Kemi's career saving speech, amazing what happens when you mention 'tax cut'.

  • SHOULD KEMI GO? - with Ria Lina

    SHOULD KEMI GO? - with Ria Lina
    Oct 8 2025
    Ria Lina joins me for some good natured disagreement. We chat about the Tories ultimate damp squib conference and whether they should ditch Kemi. We also discuss the woman cutting down ribbons for Israeli hostages & Gary Neville cutting down white middle aged men. In the patron only discuss the comics going to perform in Saudi Arabia and how much it would cost for us to sacrifice our principles.
