Trash Talk... with Count Binface

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. See acast.com/privacy [https://acast.com/privacy] for more information.

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. It really does seem that Trump sees everyone in very simple terms - you are either a Faithful, or a Traitor. Where's Claudia Winkleman when you need her?

Merry Christmas Earthlings! To celebrate your special day here's our gift to you - a bonus edition of Trash Talk. And in keeping (inn-keeping?) with British Christmas TV tradition it's coverage of a sporting event that took place weeks ago someone much sunnier. Enjoy this episode, have a great Christmas, and we'll be back with more Trash Talk in the New Year. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

Please note that this episode will self-destruct some time around 2090... along with the rest of humanity. As COP moves on having once again failed to reverse the climate catastrophe playing out in front of us we speak to Matt Winning a climate scientist who delivers his environmental message through comedy. The perfect guest for this podcast. Is this our Christmas special? Maybe. If it is, then what better message for humankind than the need to unite behind one common goal... saving your planet. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.
