We celebrate Kemi Badenoch’s selection as the leader of the Conservative Party, greeted with a side order of sour grapes from the usual quarters, of course.

We celebrate Guy Fawkes Night with the story of our Royal Historical Probably Homo Possibly Hero of the Week, James VI of Scotland, I of England.

And, after a brief diversion to witness the shenanigans at Holyrood, we toast the election of the 47th President of the United States with a large bottle of TikTok Tears.

Plus: SYDNEY’S STINKY BALLS!

In this episode, we discuss our newly-inaugurated, for one month only, HISTORICAL HOMO HERO OF THE WEEK. We also talk about a silly letter from a bunch of silly activists, extreme silliness at the University of Cambridge and the consequences of silliness for the Tavistock and Portman NHS Trust.

In And Finally, Jack tells us about a heinous crime in Scotland and a hilarious lawsuit in Albany, New York. But you'll need to take out a paid subscription to hear that!
