The Truth (In My Opinion) ·

2026/09/14

Comedian and satirist Tom Walker is our correspondant this week. He brings, in classic Johnathon Pie style, a righteous fury about Nigel Farage's apparent inability to listen to important conversations about accepting illegal money for his party, Reform. There's pills being popped but not the fun kind, as OAPs are finding their over prescription of over the counter drugs being responsible for sending them to A&E. And Trump is at it again, this time in the form of dodging taxes.And an especially

2026/08/26

'Donald Trump is selling Truth Social posts?!' Yup, you read that right! Donald Trump is selling his 'market moving' Truth Social posts to anyone willing to pay the $100,000 price tag.

'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!
