  • Summary

  • From the rise and fall of Boris Johnson to Putin's 'special operation' in Ukraine; from the cost of living crisis to sending refugees to Rwanda; award winning comedian Mark Steel takes an exasperated and frankly baffled look at the state of the UK and the rest of the world. Joined by comedian (and son) 26-year-old Elliot Steel for the 'youth's' perspective, and a special guest each week, with occasional contributions from the likes of a deceased cricketer and a woman who's overheard in a cafe, Mark tries to answer that age old question: What The F*** Is Going On?!

As a British-Iranian journalist, Ramita has won an Emmy and other awards for documentaries such as Afghanistan Undercover, ISIS and the Battle for Iraq, Undercover Syria, and Breaking Into Israel.

A Sarcastic and Wonderful Podcast

Mark Steel outdoes himself. If words could kill, I think Boris would be lying disembowelled on the doorstep of No. 10 - and every week the body count rises!. I suppose it's just as well that words CAN'T kill, because we need Mark in these dark days. I highly recommend that you listen.
