2024/11/09

WTF?Amy Hoggart spent much of the last two US Presidencies starring on 'Full Frontal with Samatha Bee' - but as you'll hear she's not thrilled at the result of the US Election this week... despite it's obvious potential for satire.

Trash Talk... with Count Binface ·

2024/11/04

Richard Bacon has spent most of the past decade living in the USA dreaming up TV formats like Jimmy Carr's 'I Literally Just Told You...' so it's a real thrill that he's our first guest of in this week of American Election specials. 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
