The Gargle: Recent Episodes
The Bugle
From the makers of The Bugle, this is a weekly show that skips the news pages and takes a sideways glance at the nonsense contained within the culture, celebrity, tech, science and advice sections of the news.
Alice Fraser is joined every show by two great comics from across the globe, bringing 30 minutes of smart satire alongside juvenile nonsense!

Hello Garglers, we will be back with a regular show next week. But while Alice is in Adelaide we have something different for you this week, namely Alice's appearance on Catharsis - Tiff Stevenson's wonderful podcast from The Bugle stable. Tiff serves as a massively unqualified therapist for her guest's old grudges, gripes and beefs, as they look together for catharsis from life's nagging grumbles.
If you enjoy, please explore the feed to find more fantastic guests such as Sara Pascoe, Alison Spittle, Dane Baptiste, Josh Gondelman, Alfie Brown, Ria Lina and many more. Next week's episode will be of particular interest to listeners of The Bugle. Hope you enjoy and see you all next week for more vital non-political satire.
Please note that Catharsis contains bleep-free swears. Well, that particular word is bleeped, but the other ones aren't.

This episode was produced by Ped Hunter and Chris Skinner.
A new show from Alice Fraser and The Bugle! Every week you'll get the latest on the news, but not politics or any of that nonsense - our focus is science, tech, celebrity, culture, arts and all the other stuff - think of us as the magazine sections, but less likely to end up in the actual bin. Join Alice and a great line up of comedians weekly from 23rd February.
