Description

In this weeks podcast, Jarlath and Marion sit down to discuss the unidentified flying objects shot down by the US - including a Chinese spy balloon and a small metallic one. The Businesses Post Washington correspondent talks about the GOP Primary heating up as Ron DeSantis is set to take on Trump and explains whether DeSantis’ chances will be scuppered by other candidates. The pair discuss the news that Fox News stars and staff allegedly expressed contempt for the election fraud claims they were pedalling on air. Over on Patreon, they give this weeks update on George Santos’ latest scandals as it appeared he hid from constituents on a visit to New York. Marion gives Jarlath a breakdown of the shocking statistics from the CDC which show that 30 per cent of teenage girls had seriously considered suicide in the previous year and a further 20 per cent had been sexually assaulted. They chat about John Federman as he has announced he will be treated in hospital for clinical depression. The two discuss the strange methods Democrats are using to fund Republicans in primaries. Marion talks about her experience seeing An Cailín Ciúin in a packed out West Hollywood cinema and the pair wrap up the show by discussing the latest Elon Musk/ Tesla drama.
