Hello, Bee Euglers! And welcome to issue 4,000 and three of the planet's leading chronicle of the history of the 21st century, the Bugle Eye. And he's Ultraman, just to prove it, here's my audio ID,

Ultraman, Andrew, United Kingdom. And I am live in London, and joining me from across the pond in the independent Republic of Transatlantia for his first appearance on the Bugle, putting him in joint third place in all-time Bugle co-host appearances, appearing today alongside all-time number one and his ultimate, of course. It is comedian, actor, New Yorker, comedian and five time Wimbledon Champion. Why it's an act. Thank you very much. Hello, Buglers It's it feels very good as a five-time Wimbledon champ to to be here with you all Not sweaty. I did look at your Your wiki pedea page, but then I remember I preferred making things up then that one's actually true. Yeah, that one

Oh, sorry, you didn't make that one up. That one is true. I've won Wimbledon five times. Is that in your Beyond Borg years? Yeah. How I won Wimbledon and in what category that you'll have to discover, but I've won it. Trust that I've won it five times.

Okay. All right, my mistake. Yeah. It's good to have an air of mystery. Yeah. So, welcome. Welcome to the Bugle. It's good to have an air of mystery. Yeah. So welcome, welcome to the Bugle. It's great to have you on. You've worked with John Oliver late of this parish for several years on the Daily Show. It's great to have you stepping in to, I guess, his void,

the void of humanity he leaves in his wake. Well, yeah, no. Whenever there's a John Oliver-sized void, it's good to be thought of as one of the people who might be able to fill it. You promised me a John Oliver impression to get things started. Sure. You got to... Well, I did say if it was easier for you and easier for the butlers, having worked with John for so long, I know his mannerisms, I do a pretty good impression of him. I've actually sometimes taken phone calls on his behalf.

So I'm happy to do the show as John Oliver, if that's more comfortable for yourself and butlers alike. Well, you don't need to do the whole show as John, but I mean, you could give us a little taste. Sure. I mean, should we redo the intro as though it was? What? I'll check out.

Yeah. Yeah. The Bugle, audio newspaper for a visual world. Ladies and gentlemen, welcome back to the Bugle after a long hiatus. Mr. John Oliver. Hello, Bugleers! It's me, John Oliver! So happy to be here! Yeah! Oh man! What's that? Let's bugle! Let's give him a goose bumps, bringing back so kind of flashbacks. I love Liverpool's soccer! Oh, that's so cool. That's my favourite footy team. I think that's pretty good. That was strong, very, very strong.

Yeah, very strong. So this is Buegel issue 4,000 and 3, the third issue of phase two for the week beginning Monday, the 7th of November, we were recording Friday, the fourth of November, amazing to think if Chris and I had been here, right here in London, just 411 short years ago, and we'd been members of parliament or monarchs thinking of toodling down the road to Westminster and Milo, so away the next day for cheeky little opening of parliament. We could have been just 24 hours away from not being blown up by Guy Forks and the gunpowder gang. 25 years since the KGB went out of business in 1991, and to commemorate

this, we present a new translation of the KGB collected book of poetry. There you go, hope you enjoyed it. As always, a section of the bugle is going straight in the bin. This week, music section, and we look at the growing, nursing home rock movement that is taking music by storm as an older generation of codgers and codgerettes start bursting through. We review the new album from Coffin Dogs. It's called Hoss Pissing in the Wind, Norbert in the Necropolytons. They're a new album, Death Bed Splutterage. And we'll be looking in particular at the single coming out of Death Bed Splutter

Race from Norbert and the Necros. Double A side. They were, firstly, I'm going to fantastic post-industrial Baroque influence Grimeskaga proto-functs-dilings of change my bag, brackets, or I'll haunt you. That blends seamlessly into the bio-fueled granite house shit metal fusion anthem of intergenerational animosity. I'm past the point of caring, you stupid young f***s. We also look at the big single this week, Doreen Dodges' death with her chart-topping Don't Unplug Me

until I've told my grandson he's a dick. And the non-agentic derrick's feed me to the worms. That's a proper blast of environmentally aware murder grunge with overtones of 1990s Detroit urban grog rockers, Phil Staines. Also, we interview Professor Wrinkle and the Dhrulls, the famous disco blues outfits, famous, of course, of their chart-topping, I'm stiff, you're stuffed.

And talking to their new lead guitarist, Aenid Acklewood, reminiscent of a, of their charts, hopping, I'm stiff, you're stuffed. And talking to their new lead guitarist, Aenid Acklewood, reminiscent of a young Joan Jets, and she's playing alongside Old Basil Hempwick, also known by his stage name, of Doctor Leverspot. That section is going in the bin. Alongside our Micromedia feature section with the world reeling from the news that Vine, the social media video sharing app that finally, finally,

enabled humanity to share six second video clips, an evolutionary thirst, finally quenched some 40,000 years after cavemen, started on a paint's little six second video clips of animals on the inside of their caves. Vine, is that an end, Sadel? I don't know if you've ever used Vine, Wyatt, it's slightly too 21st century for me, but I'm sad that now that it's dead, I've never gotten the chance to use it. Life is full of regrets. It really is, yes. And I live my regrets six seconds at a time. Vine sadly at an end and it's many trillions of users will be forced to return to making five hour long art house movies and 12 part documentary series. Very sad.

But we've always known on this show the future is all about audio, not the passing video fad. And whilst Vine may have gone the way of all social media flesh, here in our special micro media pullout section, which Amoffred is going in the bin, we look at the hugely successful one syllable nano podcasting app grunt recently valued as being worth $128.3 billion in a potential stock flotation. That's slightly more than our new hosts radio topia. Here are some of the recent highlights from Grunt. This is from the new True Crime Nano-Podcast hack. This is the episode of Scluton Malvaine's new Fuddy Nano Pod chomp in which Malvaine tries Ratcar Paccio.

Ah. Er, that's... This from the right-wing shock, Grenade Strait, and his, his once-er-world podcast. F... Eugh. Oi!

And this special interview from Hillary Clinton's campaign manager, that section in the bin. Top story this week and hang up your stockings people as we record. It is only four more sleeps until presidential election day for harrowing, haunted, broken sleeps punctuated by waking up in a cold sweat every hour, screaming, how the f*** has it come to this? Why, you are, are correspondents on the ground in America. How is the nation coping with, with the imminence of decision day? I think at this point, it's exhaustion, Andy.

I think it is that sort of final stretch of a marathon where you can see the finish line, but you can also see nearby there's Starbucks. And you're trying to decide, is it worth finishing and getting that silver blanket? Or should I just walk over to that Starbucks and say, you know what, I tried. If it was presented to America as a nation that they could just cancel the election at very short notice, the Starbucks option and just have a pumpkin left over

from Halloween as acting president for the next four years. Do you think that would, I mean, that would actually be more popular than the options on the ticket? Yes. A rotting pumpkin, I think, at this point, it would probably appease both sides. Obviously, there are sides that approach Trump, there are sides that approach Hillary. But at this moment, I think the dangerous thing right now is like, everyone kind of keeps talking about, yeah, whoever wins, there's still going to be half the people who are really upset and depending on how that goes, if it's Trump, it's a lot of people who are going to be really upset, who are going to stop making TV shows and movies.

And then if it's, and just take those to Canada. And if it's Hillary Clinton, it's a lot of people who are going to be angry and upset. And they're going to buy a bunch of AR-15s and maybe not use them but just terrify everyone on the highway. Right, so I mean, it's a pretty optimistic future you're pointing for the United States. Right, yeah. But with Rodding Pumpkin, everyone's like, hey, it's a Rodding Pumpkin, like, it's what's's gonna happen. Like, it looks like that little creepy, half-toothed smile it has is starting to turn into a frown. Oh, look at that.

Oh, rotting pumpkin. Oh, it's got flies now. Look at that, reaching across party lines. It's got flies, it's got roaches. Rotting pumpkin really is the great uniter of this country needs. Wow, I mean, that's, yeah. That's what Abraham Lincoln always dreamed of. Yeah.

He can replace by a slowly decomposing vegetable. So, I mean, the two options, clearly. I mean, Gary Johnson does appear to have left his charge slightly late as the Libertarian party candidates. Trump has come in in the betting this week alarmingly. He's now, he's now two to one. When we recorded last week, he was about five to one. So he is now two and a half thousand times more likely to become president than Leicester City were to win the Premier League title that they did

actually win last year. So that's close to a racing certainty. Whoever wins white, it does seem that they are set to be America's least popular president ever within about 0.2 seconds of swearing the oath of office on the 20th of January. True. You've got Hillary Clinton who is a good politician. I like she's a seasoned politician. She knows the she knows the game and there is a transformative thing of she could be the first female president. But there's a sense I feel like where people are like, yeah, we want history, but could it be, could it be another person?

Like we, like she's cool, like, what's her daughter doing? Is her daughter available? Or is Elizabeth Warren? What about her granddaughter? Like, we do want, like, we want to be a part of history, but I don't know if we want her. And I don't know if it's, I don't know if it's because she wants it so badly that people are now finding like fault in her of like, and she just wants it too hard. Like, is there somebody else that we could just root for?

I feel like she's become the timetable of presidential candidates in that. Like, there are people who just like timetable was such a polarizing figure as far as like, no, he's a decent football player, but he just wants to be a quarterback so badly that there were enough people that were like, nah, no, no, no, no. Anyone who wants to be president should automatically rule themselves out. Yes. Of being president. Yeah, if you want the job, you should, you should not be given the job or be allowed to run for it. It feels as though the way the president should be determined in this country is on a given day at like two in the morning, someone will knock on your door and wake you up and they'll say, hey, you're president, and your response will be, well, wait a minute. No, I, I work at McDonald's.

Yeah. And you've done a great job there. But now your country needs you. I mean, to be honest, that would, that would not be, you know, any worse or even any less logical than the current system for deciding presidents, which is essentially to have an absolute shitload of money and no shame whatsoever. Right, yeah, no. It's two sides of the same coin, really. It is, but at the same time, I bet you, if you woke up, Richelle from McDonald's at two in the morning and said, look, put on your hat, put on your McDonald's shirt,

we're taking you to the White House, you're now the president. I have a feeling she could do a good job. She's gonna reach across party aisle. I think she'll, I think she'd do fine. Because at the same time too, she probably will say like, look, I'm not gonna count out a lobbyist, but I know how to make deals.

I'll give you some super sized fries. If you guys would just be willing to talk about gun control. Ha ha ha ha. Yeah, I mean, it's that maybe that level of simple negotiation is what is needed to cut through the many barriers in American politics. It's amazing what you can get done with french fries.

You can get a child to shut up in a car with french fries. How much research have you done for that line? Why? I have two children. that line? Right. I do. Children. I do. Did you research it all? I tend to just get in cars with children and just offer them French fries. And it works pretty well. Like as a scientific experiment, it works very well. As just a thing personally, in my life and my criminal record, it's not particularly good.

Right. Right. Well, we have a sharing economy now. That's, you know, not logically that far away from Uber. Is it, you know, just forcibly getting into someone's car with a bag of fries? Yeah. And just saying, like, this is no. I'm starting an app called Friar.

And I just bring fries to children to shut them up. You're welcome. Do you know, I think 99% of all parents in the world would sign up for that instantly. Yeah. Oh, we just made an app, Andy. Did John Oliver ever do that? No, I didn't! I didn't! And we find it hard over here in Britain to understand quite the depth of loathing for Hillary Clinton that there is in America because objectively and without following her career too closely,

she seems quite an impressive politician, as you say, quite an impressive and well-qualified candidate. Is it a question of over-familiarity, breeding of deep, deep visceral contempt? Better than devil, you know absolutely nothing about in Trump, who apparently also knows nothing about most things. Is that the way America seems to be going? I think it's a mix of things. I think there's a huge part of it that is she's a lady.

I don't know if you know this Andy, but in this country, we don't treat ladies well. Oh, it's just it's a thing that it's a thing that we've been doing for a while. All right. Yeah. It seems that most Republicans see Hillary as some kind of cross between Al Capone, Lenin, the Emperor Nero, and B.L. Zibub himself, but female, so even worse. And I have just checked the stats on that. She does have way over the average number of ovaries for a presidential candidate. The average to date of all serving presidents is zero ovaries per American president. There were rumors about Calvin Coolidge, but nothing was ever proven. And they seem to seem to think that essentially, if you unscrew the top

half of Hillary from the bottom half, she will split apart to reveal a little Macol Gorbachev. And they'll have a little Leonard Brezenjeff inside and they'll have a Stalin inside. And then inside him will be a little Jeremy Corbyn. Sorry, Lennyn, Len, I'm always getting those two mixed up. I need to change my newspaper subscription. The FBI, Shemotel, this week was kind of strange. It appears that the director, James Comey, just got bored.

The campaign seemed to be fizzling out. Trump was well behind. And he just thought to himself, oh, the democracy fans want to see a contest. I'm going to drop any pretence of political neutrality and try and, try and f**king up for the last 10 days. What's the third act is starting, it's just, it's starting to get predictable. Why not, yeah, why not throw, throw just a little extra, a little extra climax into this movie? There was some quotes from anonymous FBI agents

in a newspaper article. One said the FBI is Trumpland. And what a theme park that would be. Unless, unless you're a woman, I suppose. And another FBI agent was quote, to say that Mrs. Clinton is quotes the anti-Christ personified to a large swath of FBI personnel. I mean, is there any evidence for this? Is she a genuine anti-Christ or is this more scaremongering? I mean, the FBI clearly wouldn't make something like that up. They have access to all the information in the world. Yeah, I mean, I would trust the FBI.

If they say she's an anti-Christ, and specifically an anti-Christ, which means that there's a bunch of anti-Christs out there. The fun choice. Yeah, do we know, is that three anti-Christs, is that 70, is that two million Antichrists? It's like, well, boxing championships, isn't it? They're just gonna proliferate, you know? Yeah.

It was really the good one. Yeah, I missed the days when there was just one Antichrist. That's what I wanna go back to. I wanna go back to that America when there was just one anti-Christ, and we all knew who it was. Captain Kangaroo. Well, we at the Bugle have never shied away

from investigative journalism. So we had to find out one way or the other, is Hillary Clinton actually the anti-Christ? So I spoke to Fox News' Medieval art expert, Freston Glorot. Professor Glorot, thank you very much for talking to us. You are an expert in medieval religious art. Yes, Andy, that is correct. And you believe you have evidence that Hillary is the anti-Christ. Andy, if you look at the 14th century frescoals by the great Italian

painter, Giotto, in the Ian Gregg and Trevor Chapel in Italy somewhere, or maybe Australia. Well, you can quite clearly see that the devil in those pictures is obviously Hillary Clinton. Is that so, Professor? Yes, Andy. It is. I mean, it doesn't look anything like her. It is her. Lock her up. Now, looking ahead, people have done...

There's a succession in America with the first 100 days of a new president, and particularly this time, the imagination runs absolutely wild as to what Trump may achieve for the world in 100 days from the 20th of January when he takes over. I mean, how do you see a potential Trump presidency hanging out in those first three and a bit months? I mean, I think his first thing he'll do is his repeal Obamacare, as he's said over and over, he's going to get rid of that. And my guess is he'll probably replace that

with booths around the country where you can grab a woman's vagina. I think they might just take old telephone booths and you know he'll see that as growing the economy that he'll hire women to sit in telephone booths. So guys who aren't as famous as him can feel famous and just walk into a booth and grab a lady in the vagina and then go about their day. I mean, that is, I mean, that's protected by, that's a second amendment right, isn't it, in the small print? Yeah.

And so that'll be, he'll, I think that's A, he gets rid of Obamacare, he uses that money for job creation, giving jobs to ladies, vaginas. I'm sure on some level he'll see that as some kind of women's health care as well. Feminism. Feminism gone mad. Yeah. No, I think he's, as he said, he's, you know, he cares about women. He's promised to put Hillary Clinton in jail.

I think in a hundred days, she'll not only be in jail, she'll run the yard. Yeah. She's a doer. She gets things done. She'll be the boss of the jail. She will be running it fairly efficiently. She'll have a bunch of teardrop tattoos.

The prison will be running in a way that it hasn't run before. And Trump will take credit for that. Look, he may prison reform happen. One thing that we didn't talk about before with the FBI as well was who would have thought that the FBI and Russian hackers would both be sort of on the same page as far as their presidential pick, but they seem at this point to be working together. So I feel like at that point in the 100 days,

maybe that just gets brokered totally. And it's been an old marriage, isn't it? The FBI and Russian hackers. That's like some kind of hip hop duet, I don't know, two packs of cure and Madeline Olbrough. Like Toby Keith and Nelly. It just, it's kind of like, I didn't really need either of you, but I especially didn't need you both together.

You just put peanut butter in my jellyfish. I've just run a computer simulation, actually, as though what will happen if Trump wins his is using official United Nations software and it does suggest that by the 21st of January the day after the inauguration, Mexico will have built a moat across the entire border with America, a two mile moat protecting it from all the fleeing Democrats. The UN Security Council will have voted to replace America with Luxembourg just to calm the planet down. Vladimir Putin will have been admitted to hospital in Moscow after high-fiving himself so hard that he dislocates both

risks. Oh, that's a shame. And the last surviving breeding pair of the near extinct Somerset Drens rhinoceros is found dead in an apparent murder suicide with a note next to it saying we are done with this planet. I say good for that rhino. A Trump acceptance speech is something that I would, I mean, I think it is almost worth even as a Trump skeptic. It is worth, it is worth America voting for Trump just to see what he says in an inauguration

speech in January. I mean, that could be one of the greatest moments in the history of human speech, Donald Trump, giving an inauguration address. That's, that is something for the whole of humanity to simultaneously enjoy and be chilled to the core by. Yeah. I would hope during the course of it, he would just get out a $100 bill and hand it over to Ben Carson and say, I lost the bet. I did everything in my power not to become president and none of it worked. Seriously, absolutely everything apart from digging up Martha Washington and masturbating over her dead dead horse. There's almost nothing else he could have done. How is he still in the running? What? I don't understand. I don't either. It does feel like it really says something. At this point, I think masturbating

on the remains of Martha Washington, he'd still, there'd still be people who says, yep, he has a chance. Like he's, he could, he could do a hidden run and just like kill a bunch of people with his car. And somebody will still say, yeah, but he's going to, he's going to fix the system. It's, he'll still, and those people probably deserve to die. He's only doing what ordinary Americans want to do to cues of pedestrians. Yeah, we all want to live in a West world and he just wants to bring it to us. On the computer simulation of the inauguration speech that I've just run through the UN software, Trump delights his supporters on the 20th January by announcing which female world leaders

he intends to fuck during his first four-year term, and announces plans to give the Statue of Liberty breast implants by 2019. He also announces a plan to rid the world of nuclear weapons in a new scheme, use it or lose it, in which nations have to either fivom or get rid of them, and pledges to force the 4,000- high dormant Hawaiian volcano mount Mornakia to erupt by 2022 or be dismantled and sold off for scrap. There's no point having volcanoes. Trump will say if you don't use them. I think the other question with Trump is how soon into the first 100 days does he divorce

Melania? or small ania. Yeah, you were apprentice host hot. Like you were apprentice host wife hot. You're not first lady hot enough for me. I need to go younger. Every year I will bring, I will have a new first lady every six months to a year. I mean, this podcast is going out before the voting. I think that might swing it. That's idea. I will bring, I will have a new first lady every six months to a year. I mean, this podcast is going out before the voting.

I think that might swing it. That's idea. That could swing it in favor of Trump. I think the American public would love that. They are sick of, you know, the same old first lady standing in the White House for four or eight years. You know, we live in the Tinder age, what? Yeah.

And President should reflect that, otherwise they are not representing their people. Yeah. A president should be ready at 3 a.m. to get the 3 a.m. phone call or just be down to f***. That's cool. I think that's, you know, we all assume

that 3 a.m. phone call is about, you know, a sort of war or some sort of military exercise. Maybe it's a sexual one. And when Trump keeps talking about Hillary Clinton doesn't have the stamina, perhaps that's what he's actually suggesting. Is that he has the stamina at three in the morning if somebody wants to, somebody wants to get down and get a little crazy, he'll take a quick shower if you want him to.

Oh, this is conjuring up some images that are going to be extremely hard to shift from my head. You're welcome for that. You're welcome. Thanks. No, I appreciate that. Sleep news now and a study of 13 countries has showed that people living in the United Kingdom are the most knackered of those people. A third, more than a third, British people feel they do not get enough sleep, 37% in

fact, what I want to know is who are the other fucking 63% I have never met them they're hiding away in their bedrooms probably Americans with the fourth worst sleepers on that list following Ireland and Canada and I can understand that if I was Canada right now I would be struggling to get to sleep. And what, it's as an American, how do you, are you a high quality sleeper? Did you like to stay awake worrying about the future of the entire planet? I tend to like to stay awake. I mean, I think I, apparently, though not enough. You guys, you guys are crushing us.

I feel, I feel a little inferior as an American. We spend so much time trying to be number one at everything. I thought for sure we'd be number one at sleep deprivation. And here we're not. You guys, this is still congratulations. This is your empire. That's not wrong. Well, you guys use it as a torch technique and we've used it as a lifestyle choice, essentially.

Yeah. Why are you so tired, Andy? Well, I mean, that's a mixture of a number of things, largely due to the fact that I made the strategic error of having children. That was a grievous mistake. Yeah. They don't listen to the podcast, do they? Not yet. No. All right, good. Yeah. Maybe don't play this episode for them. Oh, it's nothing that I haven't already said to their faces. Oh, sure. Yes. Yeah. Well, then that's fine. Yeah.

That's fine. It's fine. There's a quote from the article that says, um, the essence of the problem is that British people see sleep as disposable. The thing to do after everything, after you've done everything else. And it might also explain why we are so cranky about everything in particular Europe. Now this week, here in London, democracy has come under threat as never before. The nation is in turmoil and it turns out we might have, might as well have waved the Luftwaffe down in 1940 and made them a giant cup of tea because some of the highest judges in the land have decided that the government has to run a major piece of legislation through parliament. Now,

this has been portrayed as a full on assaults on the fundamentals of democracy, freedom, and everything we hold dear as a nation. These are strange times. Now lack of sleep might explain why we are so cranky as evidence in the aftermath of the article 50 judicial ruling in which three apparently massively traitorous judges, some of the highest judges in the land, decided against all the principles of British democracy that the government has to run a piece of major legislation through Parliament. This nation has been shocked to its core, as you can probably imagine, democracy and the threats from within the nation in

turmoil that democracy is fighting itself in the face. We will have more on this next week if Britain still exists as a nation. Good luck, I hope you're still around. It's not looking good at the moment to be honest. I mean, the reaction of a lot of our newspapers suggests that essentially this is a front for the Nazis invading again, I think. So we are basically just watching the skies carefully at the moment, because that seems to be what this whole Brexit thing is all about. B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B up a new email address after the previous email address appeared to be infected by certain internet issues. But some of you did send in tweets. I will set up a new email address and tweet out the data. I said no, that would be asking for trouble, wouldn't it? Anyway,

but we got so many date requests last time. Can we just send an email address up, but not tell anybody what it is. Right, okay. You just got to guess what it is. But do not use the old info at the Google podcast one because that is. Right, okay. You just got to guess what it is. But do not use the old info at the Beagle podcast one because that is frankly suitable only for chemical warfare. But we have some interesting questions. Johnny Davis asks, why is Donald Trump refusing to allow the English footballers to wear poppies in next week's match versus Scotland. So I don't know if you've followed this, a big controversy. FIFA tried to stop England and Scotland teams wearing commemorative poppies as well on a remembrance date, remember those

who died in wars. And FIFA decided this was an act of overt political protest or something. And it was interesting now that that that that's um Johnny there has blamed it on Donald Trump. I mean is that is that fair? Do you think there's just Trump's tentacle? So many has come over here with his golf courses and stuff as he was basically running the world now, isn't he? I feel like there's two things that work there. I feel like Donald Trump is maybe somebody who is very much against remembering anything. I think if you see just this current campaign, it's remembering things that get him in trouble, not him remembering things, but other people remembering things about him.

Well, that's a lot to be said for that. Yeah. So I think there's on the one hand, you have that. On the other hand, I think he's also, he's put his name on so many things that he doesn't like the idea of anyone else being able to brand anything without him getting a crack at it. So... The Trump poppy.

Yeah. So that we can remember, we can remember the sacrifice made in the first and taking one war as another conflict, but at the same time also, I tribute to the world's leading human being. He just wants you to have a quality puppy, a Trump puppy. This question came in from Andy Wright, who asks, how do you feel about the world series of baseball once again being dominated by the Americans? We'll play everybody in the world.

It's just that you all keep forfeiting your games. I was pulling for the Cubs, but also because I was pulling for the cups because it was a good story, but also because I feel like worse than the curse of a Billy goat is the curse of having an incredibly racist mascot. And it felt like, oh, that can't be, that can't be what this country gets is. Oh, congratulations. Look at how far we've come. We've got a weird super old racist drawing that is going to be on every newspaper and all

over TV and being sold as sports illustrated commemorative memorabilia. So I was really, I was rooting more against racism than I was against history. Thank you for those. There will be, yeah, do send more in next week when we have an email address if it's set up. Yeah, I might tell you what it is, but it'll be at the bugle podcast. So I'll tweet the first bit of the word. But not the entire email address, because that appears

to be the way to an inbox full of filth. That brings us to the end of this week's Bugle Thanks Whites for joining us. So, is there any, have you got any gigs coming up? People can come and see you at. If you're in New York, I host a stand-up show every Monday at a place called Littlefield. The show is called Night Train. It's a fun time. John Oliver has been there. Yes, I have. I've been there a bunch. I enjoy it. If you're not in Brooklyn, New York, but you have access to Amazon, we filmed a season of night train that you can see on Amazon through the digital streaming service called CISO.

So, consider that a plug. Thanks very much for joining us. Hopefully we'll be back. Thanks for having me. At some point in the near future. We're back next week with Harry Kondabolo returning to for the autopsy on whatever happens on Tuesday. Good luck America, vote hard and vote often.

And why, I hope your country still exists for us to talk again in future. And I hope yours does too. Let's just meet on a like a floating platform in the middle of that Atlantic and just rebuild a new utopia. There is that garbage island that everyone keeps talking about.

That'll do, let's start with that. Let's start with that. That's a good starting point. Are you interested in sponsoring the Bugle? Of course you might be.
