Episode description

We read the papers so you don’t have to. Today: Misinformation pushed the riots after the Southport atrocity and the Mail has just noticed. Is it the Russians? Plus: Why the Great British Stag Do is a horrible nightmare that we* should all swerve. And: You and I we’re gonna live forever… by putting our brains in deep-freeze? (* blokes) Miranda Sawyer is joined by journalist Coco Khan and comedian Jacob Hawley.  Come and see us LIVE at the Cheerful Earful podcast festival on 12 Oct.
