My name is Aid. I used to do Standup. Then I had two kids. The End. Between parenthood and the pandemic, I'm finding pretty much the only way to have a social interaction with people is to literally *book in a conversation with them* (and market it as a podcast). Every guest is going to be real upset when they realise I'm not even recording them, i'm just incredibly lonely.2020 Political Science Politics & Government

    Tonight on this (pre-recorded) Friday night live show we take a look at the latest happenings with Trump, MAGA, Iran, sacking Pam Bondi; ALSO Scott Mills got sacked but we dont really know why? Must just be that BBC culture i'm always reading about. ALSO: Matt Goodwin wins this week's Tap-Dancing T*sser Award AND... *AND*... we take a look at the bizarre world of A.I. deep fake online warfare between the Pentagon and the Ayotollah.

    Trump is pretending he's been negotiating with Iran again. Kemi is pretending we can North Sea Oil our way out of trouble. And the Florida Police are pretending there's an underwater city. Just another week in the Post Truth Apocalypse.

    Sweet f***ing Christ we've gone from Churchill on bank notes to Muslims in Trafalgar Square now, have we? Is there any pathetic culture war story they won't jump on? Arent their followers exhausted? Have any of the Churchill Statue or Greggs Pastie stories reduced their taxes or outgoings? ANYWAY this is the friday night live show. 19:30 every friday. join me as we once again attempt to make sense of, err, all THIS.
