It's our 10th episode! I hope you amubushed us with some cake!!

How are we celebrating? With a fucking huge discussion about American Politics (this is what Adam does for fun).

Adam and Emily are joined by the tangy Tom Lowe to discuss the BBC drama over the weekend. Emily even lets Adam talk about football for about 30 seconds. Then we cross the picket to discuss the UCU and Junior Doctors strikes, as well as the general state of the UK.

It's budget day! or... it was when we recorded this, but we did so before the budget actually came out.... so Emily gives a preview and we promise to come back and discuss it next week.

America, Adam's favourite hobby horse. Fear not! Because Adam's voice is objectively very annoying, we are joined by Dr. Derek Bolton, a senior lecturer at the University of Bath in International Relations (Impressive huh). We talk through the Presidential Race, the top candidates, how old is too old, and how badly Tom wants a book deal. There's also more penguin discussion than you might expect.

Finally it's game time, from the creative force behind.... well, Adam. Ang created a top tier game where Emily pits host against host to figure out what that wacky American Politican actually said.

A&E Politics is Produced by Adam Wright. Hosted by Adam Wright and Emily Gray, with today's guests including Tom Lowe and Dr Derek Bolton. A&E Politics is a University Radio Bath Production.
