Donald Trump & Postman Pat... aka impressionist Lewis MacLeod 35:59

for 22 dage siden35:59

35:59

What do Donald Trump and Postman Pat have in common? Well Pat has grabbed Jess the cat a few times and Donald... well we won't finish that. What they REALLY have in common is they're both performed excellently by our guest - impressionist Lewis MacLeod. British listeners may know Lewis from his work on the BBC comedy Dead Ringers where he plays the voice of not just Donald Trump but also Boris Johnson and Nigel Farage. Imagine having to get inside those three characters! That's why Lewis is the perfect person to speak to about understanding your Earth leaders. If that's not enough he's also been in a Star Wars movie and you will not guess where George Lucas took him for lunch. Enjoy the 40th episode of Trash Talk... Hosted on Acast.

On this week's podcast is political commentator and co-host of The Trawl podcast Jemma Forte. Jemma recently worked with the political campaigners Led By Donkeys to take down Elon Musk on the side of one of his Tesla factories... that kind of heroism will definitely get you a spot on Trash Talk! Mind you Jemma's also been the captain of her own space ship The Sub Zero... but you'll have to listen to the podcast if you want that sentence to make any sense.

SUPER BOWL SPECIAL with Iron Mike Carlson 34:38

for 11 weeks siden34:38

34:38

Happy Super Bowl weekend to those who celebrate (which is a LOT of you). Super Bowl LIX is expected to be watched by almost 200m humans (plus a visiting space warrior and Elon Musk). What makes it so popular? Is there anything to learn from its impressive marketing? Politics isn't afraid to borrow a bit of popular culture from time to time... so can we expect to see Kendrick Lamar rapping about democracy at next year's Labour Party Conference... or let's be realistic... Lemar. (American listeners feel free to Google 'Lemar' or 'democracy') Sharing everything he knows about the Super Bowl is legendary American journalist Iron Mike Carlson. He shares why the Super Bowl became the top day in the US sporting calendar, what the players really think about the Half Time Show and pitches a new adults-only version of Ceefax. And THAT'S why this is the greatest podcast on your planet. Go Eagles / Go Chiefs (note to producer - delete one of these on Monday) Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.…

Dr Joelle Grogan is a legal academic, and an expert in the rule of law, working in the fields of EU and UK public law. She's also the presenter of BBC Radio 4's The Law Show. At a time when the Rule of Law seems to have become more of a Gentle Suggestion of Law, when the leader of the free world is a convicted felon, we thought it was a good idea to get the biggest legal brain we know on the podcast to chat about everything legal. If intense serious legal discussion isn't your thing - don't worry the next episode is a Superbowl preview. Don't say we don't offer variety here! Hosted on Acast.

Well... here we go again. President Trump - we salute you (not like Elon does) - you're President again. So to discuss what 'Trump: The Sequel' will look like we've invited Isaac Davy-Aaronson back to the podcast. As a supervising producer at US news network MSNBC and co-presenter of the excellent Déjà News pod he's seeing the political fallout of a second Trumpian America first-hand.

By the way - he's not just on because he once lived in the US - he's also been on an intimate* walk in the woods with President Barack Obama. Away from politics Richard also chats about AI, kids' TV, social media, and gives some feedback on some pun-heavy TV show ideas. Plus listen out for a very special announcement about the campaign to bring back CEEFAX. Finally Count Binface does what the Washington Post won't do - endorses a candidate for the Presidency.

Welcome to the Gold Medal winning* podcast 'Trash Talk... with Count Binface' In this episode we're talking borders. As the poet Robert Frost once wrote; good fences make good neighbours, and as Tony Hatch (and his wife Jackie) wrote; everybody needs good neighbours, Neighbours should be there for one another, that's when good neighbours become good friends. Our guest this week is neither Robert Frost nor Tony Hatch. It is in fact author Jonn Elledge who's written this book all about some of the most bizarre borders and border disputes in history. He's the perfect guest to speak to during the global quest for dominance that is the Paris Olympics and at a time of heightened border tensions around the globe. Still reading? Good - you're dedicated - perhaps dedicated enough to review this podcast, give it some stars (say... five?), and hit 'follow' to ensure you get the latest episodes as they're released? Yes... we thought so. A true Count Binister. *Sigma IX podcast olympiad Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.…

This week Stewart Lee is on the pod. Twice voted 'Funniest Comedian' on Sigma XI Stewart is torn on whether he wants Donald Trump to win the US Election (for a very selfish reason!), and has some excellent advice for anyone (say, a bin-headed count from off-world) who might be heading on their debut comedy tour. This really is a great episode - it's so good that if you haven't yet, this is probably the one that would make you hit 'follow' so you get a new episode every week. Enjoy! Hosted on Acast.
