MAGA Pope: Make America Guilty Again

This week, Andy Zaltzman is joined by elite-tier Bugler and guest producer Belinda (as well as Nish Kumar and Tom Ballard) delivering a show so saucy it might get you banned from the Vatican gift shop.

🏏 Top Story: India v Pakistan — More than just a cricket match, it’s a boiling cauldron of nationalism, sport obsession, and a few pesky borders. What does this frenzy say about both countries—and how does it compare to how Russia does fun (spoiler: poorly)?


💸 Who will step in to sponsor the IPL extended break? We’re imagining a bidding war between detergent brands and authoritarian regimes.


🇬🇧🇮🇳 Plus, we dive into the UK–India post-Brexit trade deal: will it involve actual trade, or just ceremonial handshakes and whisky?


🕊️ Also in the news: a Ukraine ceasefire, which may or may not hold longer than a political promise, and Woke Pope News—has the Vatican gone vegan?


🎤 And in literary slander: Is Andy Zaltzman truly “the Wordsworth of anal filth”? We may never know, but we’ll speculate wildly.


⚖️ Also, we remember the Witch Trials—a time when women were persecuted for floating, speaking, or simply existing—and toss some flaming audio cocktails into the bin for good measure.
