Hello, you lose! Welcome to issue 4,076 of the Google Audio News paper of the world whose title and author is in the end of the video.

It's got more and more visible as each millennium ticked by. I am Andy Zoltzmann and I'm not a cabinet minister in the UK government yet, but it could be my lucky day. I'm sorry. Statistically that is now likely to happen within the year just by the laws of basic probability and the current rate of government each year and when I get into office I'm gonna lick this fucking place into shape this place being the UK specifically as it happens we are in the renowned city of London where disappointing news this

a record number of people escaped the Tower of London last year. 2.843 million visitors, why are there so many? It must be several, it's mid-second millennium celebrity hosting high day. But the escape percentage hit a disastrous 100%. Ha ha! Disappointing total of zero executions or mysterious disappearances last year. A full 2.843 million managed to sneak out again. Before the Queen could so much as read the dodgy evidence and probably forge confessions,

this country has gone to the dogs of L'Empressor. Although snowflake generation, too sensitive to put their heads on the blocks and take a decent beheading like teenagers who have happily do when this country was great. You did not get 16-year-old lady Jane Gray, whinging on Instagram about being executed on Trump's uptrees and charges as part of a political religious battle for the fute-druvingland, did you? She took her punishment. Did Catherine Howard, wife E of Henry VIII's F-White,

who doing letters all numbers this week? Did she say, no way, am I putting my head on that? That looks dangerous and disliking it on spatula or whatever, at young people used to die. No! No, that's why we rule the world 500 years. Give or take, apart from the pre-46 year hiatus when we graciously shared our brilliance with Europe,

which will end next year, as we re-brew the unsinkable juggernaut that is HMS Britannia and lick this planet back into shape. I am joined by a man who I'm delighted to say has never been executed for treason or adultery, which enables him to be here with me in the studio today. It's Nish Kumar. Hello, Andy.

Hello, Vughlers. No, zero executions for me so far, Andy. How are you? I'm well thanks. I'm well, I'm solving slight cricket withdrawal. Well, I was just about to say this. I've seen a lot of incredible things in my life, particularly in the last couple of years, Andy.

I've seen the sunset behind the valley of the mountains of Sierra, the Sierra Madre. I've slept under the stars of the Australian Outback, but I've also seen the concerned faces of a group of Peruvians as I shat on a mountain. But none of them quite compares with seeing Andy's ultimate in his natural habitat, in the commentary box at lords for the England India one day. What, what a sight and

date it was absolutely it was like I was like seeing a tiger in the Bengal jungle what dangerously endangered very very few cricket stasascends in the wild these days have been hunted to the point of extinction. Yeah, I mean, it's a curse as much as a gift. And for the first time on the Bugle all the way from the USI coming to us live from Boston, Massachusetts, the city where it all started to go wrong for America. Back when they mistook a harbour for a teapots, it's for the first time on the Bugle, Alex Edelman. Hey, I'm Nish, would you mind translating all of what you just said into baseball for me? Okay, basically, well cricket, how do I explain this?

It's for baseball for people who have a central nervous system. How dare you? How dare you? I have never been tried for a treason or sedition, but in a gay and Dublin once I did one say it is good to be back in the UK That's as close as I have that is the danger if you don't write any new material I ran a similar risk when I open some shows in New York with that price I ran a similar risk when I opened some shows in New York with that price. It is good to be... If you said it's gonna be back in the UK, most Americans don't know what the UK is, so they'd be like.

Alright, must be the postcode here in Lower Manhattan. We are according on the 20th of July, meaning that, well, it's just coming up to the mid-Summer Solstice for people who like to do things one month late. It's a good, good plan, really. It gets some absolute bargains at Christmas. And also gets you some very strange looks when celebrating Holy, the Hindu Festival of Color. Do be careful when smearing unsuspecting passes by with paint in mid-April. On this day in 1885, the Football Association legalised professionalism in association football and I'm going to add basically paved the way for players diving and getting tattoos as far as I'm concerned. It's all been downhill ever since.

And in 1949 on this day, Israel and Syria signed a truce to end a 19-month war. Few, glad that little political hornet's potato was sorted out once and for all way back then. And today is international chest day. Oh, is it really? Yeah, it is. Yeah. A game I am no tourist for describing as

a way of encouraging slow tactical racism. Ha, ha, ha, ha. If I may briefly quote from my own material. Ha, ha, ha. And it has always some sections of the Bugle are going straight in the bin. Firstly, a summer holiday section, that obviously Bugle is you will all be using your summer holiday, to quite literally flock to Edinburgh to see the two live Bugle shows there on the 15th and 22nd of August. And or my show, right questions are on answers, the 26th, that's down three. Maybe even popping in to see some of the various Bugle co-hosts also appearing at the Fringe present company

included. But what if you're not doing that? Well, welcome to the bugle tourism destination of the year countdown from tourist hotspot 10,000 all the way up to number one in uh, 2000 weekly installments of five tourism destinations. At 10,000 this year on the Bugle Musco to tourist hotspot list, cruising the Aronte's River through Warton, Syria. At 9,999 an inviorication cleaning up toxic waste in an African port city. Or maybe you'd like to go for holiday 9,998 to teach yourself freelance journalism. We're not working holiday in Moscow, maybe 2997.

Two weeks no expenses paid, some see and sound in central Libya. And 33% off, by which I mean there's no see. 9996 is pen pushing in Pyongyang, an immersive life experience holiday as part of the North Korean bureaucratic machine. Also in the bin, we commemorate, as hinted at by Alex this day in 1969, when Apollo 11 landed on the moon in the sea of tranquility. Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin became the first humans to walk on the moon six and a half hours after it landed.

What the f*** happened in Dalcic? That's an entire day of test cricket, excluding lunch and tea rights. What the f*** were they doing? Well, I think they wanted to be the first person to have a shit or one can a nap on the moon, Andy. That's certainly what I do when I move into any new property.

That is why you're banned. There's Airbnb. There's Airbnb. Just, you don't need to say every... There's a transcript of this six and a half hours between the time they landed and the time they walked out. And it's just each action not going, no me first. No me first. No me first. No I go first.

I'd like to know exactly what distraction trick Neil Armstrong pulled on Aldrin to make sure he was first out of the hat. I must be something. I think it got to be better than just look over there, it's a planet. I think there was a gentleman's agreement between Armstrong and Buzz that one of the two of them would get to name a character from an animated movie some 30 years after the, it could, toy story could have been so different, Andy. It could have been the story of Woody and Neil Lightyear.

Yeah. Ha, ha, ha. So that's drama. They all have the nickname buzz. That's what nobody knows. Buzz Aldrin, Buzz Armstrong, and Buzz Collins up there in the lunar, in the lunar orbiter. He was the brave one. At least, at least they had a buddy up there in the lunar orbiter. He's the brave one.

At least they had a buddy down there in the moon. Michael Collins was alone orbiting, going, oh yeah, it's the Stark on the other side. Yeah, I know how much he played in this cumal cutlery not the only time. Collins absolutely played in the walls of that Latin bottle. Oh my gosh, this is not a dish of clothes.

Show it's supposed to be about me. Colleagues is the one that I've related to the most because he's clearly the one who was like, you know what? You're all right. You know what? I've got to the moon. I've seen the moon.

I'm not going to risk it. I've seen two baddie films. I think it's funny. I've said this before on stage. Where I think it's funny that Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin are two of the most famous men who have ever lived in Michael Collins isn't even the most famous Michael Collins.

There's a movie and it's called Michael Collins and it's about a guy who never left Earth and died here. So, and interesting also, we mentioned that the transcript from that Apollo 11 recently declassified also have the transcript from the last moon landings Apollo 17 and no one knows the names of the people involved in that without recourse to the internet or knowledge and the the full transcript from whoever it was. This another small step for a man,

not really much of a giant leap, to be honest for humanity anymore that's no one's really paying attention. The novelties weren't off a bit, guys, to be honest. There is, and please don't shoot the messenger for this, f*** all to do up here. To commemorate the 49th anniversary of the Apollo Squad setting foot

on the big round bastard in the sky Having away for almost five decades of People looking at the reflections and shadows of flags We are giving you the chance to be one of the next people on the moon with a special bugle moon landing competition, whenever the next lunar expedition happens, to qualify for an exclusive place. As part of the next moon landing crew, simply buy a ticket to one of this year's live bugle shows, or my Edinburgh show, then train to become an astronaut, and reach such a level of astronautical skill that you get chosen by whoever's far as humans at an empty lump of rock next time. And if you plan an episode of the bugle on the Moon, you will win a lifetime 5% discount

of tickets to any live chat shows, celebrity tennis matches or gala film launches that I do for the rest of my career. So I do send your entries into the Chinese space agency. I lost 100% of that sentence after the big round bastard at the sky. I bet it is the big round bastard in the sky. That is the big round bastard in the sky. Zero information from that. Because in my head I was like, that's a great night for the moon. What does he call the sun?

Does he refer to the big round bastard in the tree dreadful of the U.N. as Banquet big round bastard in the sky? The big round bastard in the sky is the least popular ping-floid. Top story this week and escaped American madman leaves trail of havoc. Alex, thank you very much for sending your president to... Yeah, thanks a f***ing lot, mate. Or once, relatively soon. Do you know it? It was all me. Was it? Yeah. It was all me. Yeah. It was totally me. Alex, thank you very much for sending your president to- Yeah, thanks a f**king lot, Mike. Or, uh, once, relatively early.

Do you know what? It was all me. Was it? Yeah. It was all me. Yeah. It was totally me. I never thought I'd turn on the, uh, on my cell phone when I woke up in the morning and say out loud to knowing in particular, ugh, my president's such a goddamn idiot.

You just say it all the time. It's just this light treason every single day, some days less light than others. It's such an embarrassment that people look at me with sympathy abroad. People aren't even angry. They don't know how to feel. Yeah, the sympathy turned to anger pretty quickly this week because Trump toured Europe in the same way that the aliens tore Earth in Independence Day in that the he left a trial of destruction in his wake was welcomed by some misguided buffoons and despite it being over there's a terrible sense that there's a sequel on the way and really the only people who were opposing it in any way were experts and black people.

I have some sympathy for him sometimes, because I'm like, look, I also don't understand these complex global political issues like NATO or diplomacy with Russia. But then he's like, I'm gonna handle this alone or off the top of my head and I'm like, well, my sympathy is very quickly turning to anger, as much as I'm saying.

I'm sadding. I missed quite a lot of it at the time because I was still working on cricket stuff and preoccupied with my day job or if the game's in floodlit my day night job. I thought, what would I find in Maritone? What residue would the president's Europe jaunt have left behind? Well, as expected, it was very similar to the residue left behind when you leave a puppy alone in the back of an ambulance for three days

with nothing but a never-ending supply of sausages. It was messy. It was very messy as an obviously brilliant, but patently fatigued footballer, unable to stir an aging poorly structured national team through the World Cup. Whilst running on empty, after more than a decade of top-level football,

but never there, it's been curious empty after more than a decade of top level football, but nevertheless been curiously resigned to defeat. Well, yeah, he, he, he, he turned up in the UK and made some comments about Brexit, which suggested he has absolutely no idea what Brexit is. He said there was going to be a lot of turmoil in the UK and then afterwards when asked about it, he digressed into an answer that involved him, erroneously claiming that he was the first Republican president to have won Wisconsin. And everything he said suggested that in his meeting with Theresa May, he was frantically in the advance the meeting,

looking at the Wikipedia pages for Brexit, the United Kingdom and Theresa May. And almost certainly opened his remarks by saying, Brexit is the impending withdrawal of the United Kingdom, brackets UK from the European Union, Theresa May, brackets born first of October 1956 is Prime Minister of the UK and is leading the Brexit strategy citation needed. Well, it's lucky you got the right to

Reza May, although it's got to be very It's been a straight. I mean, Donald Trump, anyone who's missed the show over the past 18 months is president of the United States and also subject of a 10-hour discovery channel special in their popular How the f*** did that happen series? Very much, the unwanted penis in the pickle jar of international diplomacy and There's once again fired a barrage of explosive turd into the pond of international politics Which is the delicate ecosystem at the best of times and?

One thing I particularly enjoyed was and this was often returned to America, talking about about NATO, basically suggesting that Montenegro, a small country with a population of around about half a million, could start the Third World War, he said Montenegro is a tiny country with very strong people, they're very aggressive people, they may get aggressive, and congratulations you're in World War 3. Now, hell of a greeting scarred from MoonPig.com. To be fair, we do have to understand all of what Trump does through the prism of domestic American politics and it is a fact that Ross Belt America has been yearning desperately and justify be yearning for someone to roll over and be tickled by a Russian president

on the other half. Someone to represent them by believing one of the world's foremost bare face lies over his own secret services. Someone to wade into the Brexit debate with absolutely no grasp of the issues involved to help their everyday lives in Rust Belt America to, on their behalf, slag off the Montenegrines because for too long, Americans for God and Workers have had absolutely no one to gratuitously provoke small former constituent nations of the defunct Yugoslavia based on crude stereotypes probably picked up from an episode of 24. Surely now, we will see an unsub all boost in productivity in the factories of Michigan. Now that the disenfranchised labourers there have a president who will make people in the city of Podgarice or stop whatever they're doing and saying, what the fuck did he just say? Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha would result in no trade deal from the United States. Maribox, he was then forced to immediately walk back

in the press conference that happened the next day. And then, like my one-man recitation of Hamilton after seven points in my cousin's wedding, things went from bad to worse. Because then, he went to Russia. And I mean, Alex is... Is treason on the table in America? I don't know if we know what it looks like anymore.

If he said, I am part. If he said I am part of Russia now, I am part of Russia, Putin tells me I am part of the Russian government. I still think there'd be a part of the country that was like, but still better than Hillary Clinton. I don't know what needs to happen and it's also, it feels like he will just agree with anyone who's in front of him because the Montenegro thing was he was doing an interview with with Tucker Carlson whose name is a bow tie. And Carlson said, so let's say Montenegro, which joined last year's attack, why should my son go to Montenegro to defend it from attack?

And then Trump said, I have asked the same question. That's a question that Donald Trump has asked himself. Why should my son, Eric or Don Jr. Trump, go and defend the nation of Montenegro? He's really thought that to himself. That's something that, which son would he send to defend the nation of Montenegro? Definitely, definitely, Eric.

I wish whenever anyone mentions, whenever he mentions a country like Montenegro, journalists should just have a map of the world in their back pocket. They'll let it out and they go, point, point to it. No, that's Central America, Mr. President, point to where you think Montenegro is.

Go ahead. Well, that sort of compliant conversational style is of massive concern to American diplomats and frankly, most of the rest of the world, because he was on his own with Putin for a couple of hours with no other diplomats present, and the only other American in the room is a woman called Marina Gross, who was his translator, and journalists have very soon been trying to get hold of her notes from the meeting. But I assume everybody is trying to furiously figure out if they contain the words, much of video cassettea, which, according to Google Translate,

is a Russian translation of the word urine videotape. I tried Pistape in Russian, and I now I think think I know have to set my computer on fire. I always forget that I need to do private browsing before I start working on the big... I think I would say I think I'm on some sort of CIA list, but I think I might be on there anyway. It's another one of these classic days with the Trump presidency where just when you think you've reached the kind of apex, it turns out there was crowd cover and there is still yet more peak of stupidity for you to ascend. Because he's now saying that he's going to invite Putin to the White House. And that was news to a lot of people, including the director of National Intelligence, Dan

Coates, who found out during a Q&A with NBC. And when he found out about it, Mr. Cotes said, according to the New York Times, Okay, that's going to be special. Before going on to say, if he had asked me how that ought to be conducted, I would have suggested a different way. But that's not my role. That's not my job. So it is what it is. Which is, Cote did speak from the intelligence community that means, What the f**k are you doing? You stupid f**k! Did you see my favorite line?

You've left out of Coats' answer it was, he starts answering the question, and then he closes his eyes, and you see something break, and then he says, say that again. And the presenter tells him, the NBC News presenter says,

what do you think of, and he said, and he, you could see him wanna ask if it's hypothetical, but also knowing that if he does, he doesn't have a job tomorrow. So I'm gonna, something to look forward to, isn't it, the visit of Little Mickey Micro Star into the White House, it's gonna be sensational. The XCIA Big Cheese John Brennan,

thank you for using his full title Andrew. So he was one of the ones that said, if this is nothing short of treasonous, and I have not heard words as justifiably strong as that about anything since Mike Gattings reverse sweep of crucial stage, but 1987 World Cup Cricket Final. Never forget. This is the hazard of bugling in the summer. And it was interesting also that there was a former Republican, chair of a Republican congressional district committee quoted in the Guardian saying that the idea that Trump would call the European Union a foe and cotton up to dictators such such as Putin and Kim and this is the glorious bit of the

quote. Makes me feel like vomiting in my sleeve. So this is such a profound feeling of repulsion from a Republican that he will not even be able to get as far as a bucket or a toilet or even a basin. Sleeve is the only option. The only work he could do is if he just vomits directly down his shirt. It's one of the most invocative images because it suggests a disgust so profound and surprising that he hasn't even had time to make it to the toilet. There's no bucket available.

He's just gonna go in his own shirt. This Burberry, the upmarket fashion label, has recently destroyed its unsold clothes, accessories and perfumes. By burning them, they burned 28.6 million pounds worth of products. Last year, quotes to protect the brand, the bonfire of the vanity products. Why? Why? Why? Why can these not,

if we're only doing this section for you to deliver that joke, it was worth it. It was 100% worth it. That is as good as big, big bastard in the sky. Well, I mean, why can these not be handed on to the world's less fortunate people, rather than being but air drops of 25 pounds sticks of lipstick, could make the Rohingya refugees

feel a little bit special in their times of strife in the absence of any genuine international political giving of a shit. Well, surely a $120,000 limited edition alligator trench coat would be appreciated by a young Yemeni boy who just been bombed out of his home. Put it to good news, Burberry. Burberry said it worked with specialist companies who were able to harness the energy from the process, which is great news, actually, for all of us who do not want to buy or wear Burberry products. because that is basically,

every time we don't buy a burberry product, that is improving the environment, because they are making non-fossil fuel, and every time I do not spend 1,150 pounds on a 1,150 pound burberry rucksack, I'm helping to create green energy. I can, I can therefore also treat myself to a wisdom around the block of my diesel car for no reason.

That is a bargain. And if everyone in the world stopped buying £1,150,000, Burberry Rucksacks for him, and £1,590,000, Burberry Cashmere Ponceaux for her, we could entirely replace coal and oil with Rucksacks and Cashmere Ponceaux as soon as the year 8,290. I'm not sooner. I'm worried about you talking about this idea, Andy,

because I feel like the next time we beagled, the top story will be Elon Musk announcing a burberry clothes powered car. Ah! Ah! Ah! Brexit news now, and yeah, it's still f***ing kale. Oh, yeah.

I'm not an actual athlete. As we head into the summer recess. It's the most nice, aside from any time I've spoken to you after I've glued them lots to cricket, man. It's the most feta pufferty sound. It would have been so great if one day you're just like, Brexit, sordid, didn't think it'd be better. So I said.

It's, I mean, it's pretty much turning out exactly what we voted for, which was Yes. Putting on planned mayhem. Yeah. The highlight for this week, I'm going to part from a cheeky bit of parliamentary vote cheating. Yeah. So I have this system in our parliament where if you can't vote for whatever reason,

if you're incapacitated through health reasons or geography then you pair up with someone else from the other side who can't vote, neither of you vote, so your lack of votes cancel with each other out. And this was happening with Joe Swinson, a Liberal Democrat MP who's just had a baby I think. Is that right? Let me just get the deal. Yes, she's on maternity leave. Yes, so this happened with Joe Swinson, a liberal Democrat MP who is on maternity leave. But the person she'd paired up with did vote.

And the Tory chief whip, Julian Smith, who was... Okay, for American listeners, we should probably clarify that chief whip is a position in the British Parliament. Yeah. I mean, the whips, it's not entirely clear. Essentially, chief whip is a political term for school bully. Yeah, at least, yeah, it is. The Chief Whip's are their main responsibilities are to threaten MPs to quietly duff them up

behind the toilet and to steal their lunchmuff in order to get them to vote with the government or, you know, with the... I mean, quite a while they need to exist in a mature democracy. It's one of the most baffling things in our politics. But anyway, this pairing did not happen and the person that Joseph was paired with did vote. And he's basically said, oops, it was just a little mistake. I'm not guessing this in this era of, I mean, it's not quite Trumpian levels itself. It's sort of British dream. Or remake of Trump. Like it sort of involves stupidity and very, very low level corruption.

But it does seem like the Chief Whip was pressurising conservative MPs, or certainly this one particular conservative MP, to break the sort of agreement that exists within the House of Commons. And it is, as we often discover when it comes to the British legal system, the problem when you never write anything the f*** down and you assume that things are going to get by on politeness and a chat over a tee. It's good to have a constitution that is essentially a hunch. But this is still back room maneuvering though. Yeah. Even though it's based in politeness, in the United States this would be a deal.

Like, in the US this is the kind of political maneuver that gets its own song and Hamilton. Yeah. And in the UK, it's out in the open, and the complaint here is basically, excuse me, we've had this back room deal that no one is supposed to really know about, and my trust has been violated. And Chief Whip is also a position, an important position in Donald Trump's Moscow hotel.

Allegedly, allegedly, I can hear Chris is concerned rising allegedly. Oh no, he definitely got picked. The other Brexit story of the week is, I mean look, I've been pretty clear in my views on Brexit, but this is the first thing I think I've enjoyed on like wholeheartedly. This is the best Brexit story so far. The government published a Brexit white paper, which is the name that we give for the start of our sort of bills, appropriately enough, white is involved. It was, they produced it and it was translated into 22 languages only to receive according

to the I news website. A hail of criticism and confusion from native speakers who notice strange, obsolete or even made upwards. So they basically translated it into a number of different languages and for some reason, presumably they use Google Translate instead of an actual translator, but they managed to misspell the word German. They misspell the word German. In French they translated, they meant to say Brexit in principle, but they translated it as principled Brexit meaning a moral Brexit which is the Brexit we may well end up with after all of this stuff is done and one confused reader said that it gave the whole thing a mythic quality which in many ways is absolutely perfect.

I'm not that message. It wasn't a loss of translation at all. This is bag on message. Strange obsolete and made upup words were used. Leave that to Cricket, please. So, I don't know. That's my business. It's a real googly, they bowed there, I don't know. How does Google translate, not know how to turn German, the word German into, into Deutsch?

I blame Google translate for that. Well, I'll be, yes. It has to be there. False. It's the same thing. Didn't you use it just now to translate Russian p-tap? Yeah, but we're still. We're going to pretty good approximation.

We're still not 100% of the veracity of my Russian, though, Alex. Yeah, every single bugle show I write, I put through Google translatelate and back again. And I have these different language every week. Just weak, Peruvian. Is that language? I hope.

What I love with this is the Brexit process and the people in charge of it are so incompetent that three of us have just accepted as fact that they used Google Translate. Fuck you, it doesn't seem anything stupid that anything else they've done. What is fact in it? I got no problem with this because come 29th in March next year, 11pm, when we leave that year, we will not need to speak to anyone in any other language apart from British. And if you can't speak British, your f***ing problem world is not us misspelling European words. It's them using weird words when British words make perfect f***ing sense.

Ah! episode today because you've already revealed your knowledge of the significance of the Teardrop title. So Alex, as our hip hop and rap music co-op, I am definitely the hip hop and rap music correspondent. Talk us through this very exciting moment in the crossover between rap music and local journalism.

So, Chins the Rapper has had some issue with the press and his response is distinctly Trumpian, which is that he's decided to buy a newspaper that gave, he got a bad review from MTV and so he said, I'm going to now purchase my own news outlet. He's Chicago, he's from Chicago and he's bought what's called the Chicagoist, which is very, very unbranded so far. And he is, no doubt many other celebrities will be buying their own newspapers. But Chance the Rapper, who is changing his name to,

Chance the Rapper, Dash Publisher, will be posting Chance-related news and many other Chicago-related streams of content, including a focus on social work Chicago, which is a arts education nonprofit based around the city's schools. Which is interesting because, you know, there are not many jobs left in print journalism, but Chancellor Rapper has decided that he's going to transition from hip hop into the news business.

And I'm sure many other, yeah, many other celebrities should follow suit. I mean, I can't believe Kanye is not now going to buy the economist. Yeah. It's, uh, there was a, it's a matter of people are not, people are not impressed by this. A lot of people have said, someone said, uh, and this is a bit of the chance as he's bought this in part, uh, because of coded racism in the journalism industry. And as if to prove his point, the question, the person that the New York Times asked about, asked about this says, chances young enough to make mistakes on his own.

So I mean, it proves the point. It's an interesting response to bad reviews. I mean, if I the point. It's an interesting response to a bad review, isn't it? I mean, if I've bought up every media outlet, it's given me a bad review. I'd make Rupert Murdoch look like a teenager writing a blog about April. LAUGHTER And, of course, it's not the first time that someone in the music industry has bought the media outlet.

Of course, the 1980s New York crossover thrash band Stormtroopers of Death, they owned and edited the Tombridge Wells courier Causing controversy when they replaced the very popular this week in the West Kent Crown Green bowls league column Well, some of provocative opinion piece by ghost writer under the pseudonym infidel unaware of course I know where of course at the town had a long-serving conservative MP under the same name in the 30s, although that was of course, at the town had a long-serving conservative MP under the same name in the 1920s and 1930s, although that was, of course, pronounced a coaster.

And the reminiscent of when George Formy briefly owned the Daily Telegraph, the banjo playing musical comedian and Lancastrian hat-wearer was renowned, of course, for his hit song, when I'm cleaning windows. It was written, well, working as an undercover investigative journalist for the graph. I think a lot of this segment is just because Charles is black, because ultimately what is more American than a rich man with no experience in journalism whatsoever, buying a f***ing Like, Charles the Rapper is just Jeff Bezos with Better Beats. your emails and this came in from your go who writes Hello Andy I'm writing from Indiana over in the festering swamps of Trump's Albania. Having just watched England against Belgium heroically avoiding the urge to reenact the current political situation by slamming gold after gold into their own net, while smashing cleats first into their teammates' testicles, and instead merely

losing a respectable 2-0 match. I went back and listened to the 2014 Bugle World Cup podcast featuring Andy and defrocked Bugle a John the Apostate. In it, Andy has asked who will be blamed for England's future defeat in the 2018 World Cup. He correctly predicted Raheem Sterling. Now while Raheem did not have a singular, glorious flame out as Andy had hinted he might. He did show a concern in infuriatingly to trouble the ball past defenders, get deep into prime goal scoring area and then deflate the ball, sit on it away from opposing player to lightly roll it off and continue playing the other direction. Being American, I don't have much experience shouting about English footballers, but as the tournament wore on, I found myself

cursing, sterling, with a clockwork regularity as he swallowed the ball, and then he ended up off digested, only to have it kicked out from his gullet by an understanding, testy, Croatian or Belgian. So, presuming Andy's clever once on all things sport related, what are his predictions for future World Cup England football and Rahim sterling's ability to deliver anything before it is narrowly too late? Well, I think there's a good chance that sterling is going to, you know, double scapegoat in 2022. He just seemed to get blamed an awful lot despite playing off-dense, reasonably well. Well, actually, yeah. I'm not sure that I was watching the same game. It was a lot of England fans.

I thought Sterling played all right. I mean, I guess the Mistake he made was not to be the penalty taker and flute goals off the back of his leg. Yeah, yeah. I think he also made a... He was great. He made a very significant mistake.

And it really is a schoolboy error. He did not have the foresight to be born a white man. Oh, it's a real, I mean, if he's shanked any open goal, is that one? Yeah. A lot of this... I mean, that is a bit of a risk coming from you, Nish. He all made mistakes, Andy. We all made mistakes.

If only, could'd be Nick Cooper. It was so I'm for those of you who've not called up yet France, France won the World Cup due to an interesting combination of high skill and extreme luck. Yeah, yeah. But I thought they were the best team of the tournament. Yeah, that's not what it's about I was delighted with two things in the final one I was delighted to see a team with as many black players as France have succeed in Russia and two I was delighted and then immediately terrified for the pussy right protesters

Who got the pitch because it has been a really good World Cup but it's important to not forget that Russia is up to some f***ing nasty shit. Oh no it's important to forget that. That's what sport is all about. I was like that that that that striker is certainly smiling a lot for someone who's going to spend the rest of their lives in a gula. yeah so I mean I've not been so immediately terrified for a woman's synths trump met the coin yeah very brave of the pussy right just a quick other sporting news the open golf championship is on at car news to this week at the moment as we speak the Americans chug vomitane the third flex and glad are and pop popper cuddles are leading the way

at three under par will have a full report from the end of the tournament when we're back in August. So the bugle summer break is coming up and we will be off duty, stroke on holiday for the next three weeks and then we will return with a live bugle from Edinburgh on August the 15th. There is another live bugle on the 22nd which will feature Nish Alex, you're doing one of the ones in Edinburgh as well, aren't you?

I think you're doing the 15th, Alex, but I can't remember off the top of my head. I think so too, I think I am as well.
