The Truth (In My Opinion)

Comedian Sarah Keyworth is our correspondent this week, with 3 sensationally stuuuupid headlines. There's news of a Bronze Age women being mistaken for a stout man, must we really insert men into every story? And a shop in Nantucket has come under fire from influencers after putting a 'no influencers' sign in their window, the influencers are VERY upset. And finally, Wesminister council is threatening to ban standing up drinking in Soho.

Plus an especially excellent headline for our Patreon listeners.

'Scrapping human rights is Reform UK's flagship policy.' With the imminent incoming result of the Clacton by-election, Cody outlines one of the main right wing hot policies of the moment - scrapping the Human Rights Act.

Kissing is back, baby! And you should be doing it in public! According to a new study that suggests couples who kiss outside are more emotionally connected. Plus the protection of Dobby's (fictional) grave causes real potential Bronze Age grave.

'I'd vote for anything if I was drunk!' It's a fair statement from Producer Becky but perhaps not one you'd want to be related to the issue of MPs voting on laws that affect real people.

An investigation into the drinking culture of MPs whilst on the job leaves Cody and Becky wondering why the f*** MPs are allowed to drink on the bloody job if literally no one else is! We learn that Charli XCX's new album Music, Fashion, Film could actually hold some secret code for failure fearing millenials. Plus commentmaxxers continue to bring the goods, with an excellent story about Clicky Ponting - a cricket scandal that's rocked the cricketing world.

Comedian Kemah Bob is our correspondent this week, bringing the story of blatant and targeted racism by a literal neo-nazi in a powerlifting competition. But will there be consequences? She also revisited a headline that whilst not currently in the news cycle, is a difficult one for Kemah to forget now she's been granted Indefinite Leave to Remain. Will Nigel Farage's Reform actually strip people of their right to remain if they get into No.10? And can rats really drive and more importantly, do they actually love it?

Plus an especially excellent headline for our Patreon listeners.

Kemah's show Love Child is on at 18:50PM Upstairs at the Pleasance Courtyard at the Edinburgh Fringe, get your tickets here: https://www.edfringe.com/tickets/whats-on/kemah-bob-love-child
