Recorded live in Melbourne, this weekโ€™s Bugle is a full-throttle Rage Bait Special, with Andy Zaltzman joined by Lloyd Langford, Sami Shah, and Alice Fraser to chew through the yearโ€™s biggest stories with fury, confusion, and jokes of questionable legality.

๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡บ Australia: We confront the latest tragedies in Australia, and try (with limited success) to process them through satire, empathy, and yelling into the void.

๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ Trump News: Meanwhile, Donald Trump continues to doโ€ฆ whatever it is heโ€™s doing now. We attempt to identify it, label it, and possibly quarantine it.

๐Ÿ“ Epstein: We dig a little deeper into what we do and donโ€™t know โ€” and why this story refuses to go away.

๐Ÿ“† And we rummage through some of the other best (and worst) stories of 2025, because thereโ€™s always more. Always. Angry, funny, cathartic โ€” this is The Bugle doing what it does best, in front of a live Australian audience.

This week, Andy Zaltzman is joined by Josh Gondelman and Anuvab Pal for an episode bursting with chaos, tangents, and stories so random they feel algorithmically generated.

As Andy prepares to fly to Australia for The Ashes, the big question is: is he even slightly focused? The evidence suggests no.

๐ŸŽฏ TOP STORY โ€“ RANDOM NEWS ROUND-UP:

  1. ๐Ÿ† Cheating Pub Quiz News โ€” Move over Louvre heist! The latest great intellectual crime spree takes place in a British pub, and it involves phones, trivia, and moral collapse.
  2. ๐Ÿช™ American Coin News โ€” The US Mint has been busy. Or weird. Or both. We examine Americaโ€™s ongoing attempt to turn currency into a stand-up routine.
  3. ๐Ÿค– Russian Robot News โ€” Russia unveils a robot. Or a โ€œrobot.โ€ Or a man in a tinfoil box. The details are, frankly, inconclusive.
  4. ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ Trump News โ€” Because of course there is.

A dizzying tour of the worldโ€™s oddest headlines โ€” just another day at The Bugle.

๐ŸŒŠ The Blue Wave: Across the US, progressives are making surprising gains โ€” including Zohran Mamdaniโ€™s win in NYC. But how long before the wave meets the usual breakwater of bureaucracy?

๐ŸŽ™๏ธ Trump vs the BBC: In a glorious meltdown that will echo through press rooms for decades, Donald Trump loses it live on air. Andy brings us a world-exclusive โ€œinterviewโ€ with The Don himself โ€” because if you canโ€™t get him in person, you can always get him in parody.

๐Ÿ”ฅ The End of the World (Slowly): Climate, conflict, capitalism โ€” the apocalypse is on layaway, but itโ€™s still coming. Donโ€™t worry, thereโ€™s time to panic later.

The Bugle turns 18 โ€” and weโ€™re not done celebrating yet! In Part 2 of our birthday special, Andy Zaltzman is joined by Alice Fraser and Nish Kumar to take a sideways look at some of the weekโ€™s more alternative headlines.

๐Ÿš† UK News: Double-decker trains could be coming to Britain โ€” but is it a great leap forward, or just a taller disaster waiting to happen?

๐Ÿ›ฐ๏ธ Australian News: Space junk keeps falling from the sky. Should we be worried, or is this just natureโ€™s way of redecorating the Outback?

๐Ÿ“š Online News: Wikipedia turns out to be even stranger than you remember โ€” and possibly more reliable than your uncleโ€™s Facebook feed.

๐Ÿฅ” Bugle Hot Potato: Producer Chris Skinner finally reveals the results of our first-ever Bugle audience survey, and the findings areโ€ฆ troubling, hilarious, and statistically unsound.

๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ US NEWS: No Kings! Americans are once again protesting monarchy โ€” real, imagined, and symbolic. Itโ€™s a weird time to love liberty and hate coronations.

๐Ÿคธ SPORTS NEWS: Indonesia has banned Israel from gymnastics competition, sparking debates that require some serious mental gymnastics to follow.

๐Ÿค– Then we dive into the weird world of AI, where influencer Tilly Norwood is reshaping tech headlines, ethics, and possibly humanityโ€™s sanity.

๐Ÿฆ In animal news, we meet pescatarian lions โ€” proving that even apex predators can try a new diet (or are just really bad hunters).

๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ In the United States, Elon Musk continues to make noise, and riots bring yet another wave of existential dread. Democracy? Still TBD.

๐ŸŒ† Sinking cities are on the rise (and by โ€œon the riseโ€ we mean going underwater). Is climate change trying to take real estate off the market?

Andy, Felicity Ward and James Nokise dig in to...

๐Ÿฆก Honey badgers are fearless, chaotic, and possibly the spiritual animal of this podcast. We investigate their weird mythology and even weirder attitude.

๐Ÿ‡ณ๐Ÿ‡ฟ New Zealand politics is heating upโ€”by Kiwi standards, at least. We delve into coalition collapses, policy oddities, and why itโ€™s all oddly polite. ๐Ÿ’” Elon Musk and Donald Trump: the bromance is off. What happened? Who kept the merch?

๐Ÿ Top Story: India v Pakistan โ€” More than just a cricket match, itโ€™s a boiling cauldron of nationalism, sport obsession, and a few pesky borders. What does this frenzy say about both countriesโ€”and how does it compare to how Russia does fun (spoiler: poorly)?

๐Ÿ’ธ Who will step in to sponsor the IPL extended break? Weโ€™re imagining a bidding war between detergent brands and authoritarian regimes.

๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ณ Plus, we dive into the UKโ€“India post-Brexit trade deal: will it involve actual trade, or just ceremonial handshakes and whisky?

This week, Andy Zaltzman is joined by David Oโ€™Doherty and Alice Fraser to deliver your weekly fix of democracy despair, snake news, and historical nonsense.

๐Ÿ—ณ๏ธ Top Story: Global Democracy Update โ€” The world is somehow both leaning towards and veering away from Donald Trump. We check in on:

  • Australia, where going viral now involves saying racist things in chip shops ๐ŸŸ
  • The UK, where a party that is definitely not far-right (and will sue you if you say otherwise) made gains ๐Ÿด
  • And Ireland, where we mark the first hundred days of government with a sigh, a shrug, and mild confusion โ˜˜๏ธ

๐ŸŒ Also this week: Remember when Net Zero was an actual goal and not just a vague eco-dream whispered into the wind? Good times.

๐Ÿ In Snake News: one man basically conquers snakes by letting them bite him. Yes, this is a real story. Yes, heโ€™s probably not okay.

๐Ÿ“š Plus, we look back at Tennessee banning the teaching of evolution (because that could never happen again, right?), and the thrill of the first four-minute mile.
