The Truth (In My Opinion)

'I do think this is a case of woke gone mad!' A commentmaxxer has struck gold with a headline about a Titanic themed slide being forced to change it's branding after people were furious at the idea of any fun being associated with the disaster. But what happened when they did ultimately change the name of their slide?

Shock and horror, AI fraud detection might not always work! And which.co.uk have proved it in a No.10 Downing Street Hotel hoax.

Plus more is being done to remember the lives and history of Henry VIII's 6 wives!

Here are the headlines discussed in this episode:

Comedian Kiran Saggu is our correspondent this week bringing some incredibly important headlines. In a podcast first, we have a Vogue headline and it's a strong one. Was Love Island star Jasmine Gaziza Müller vilified for being a confident brown girl? We also discuss a rise in domestic violence directly linked to the World Cup in our second headline which might be triggering for some listeners, so do skip that story if so. Finally we try and stuff 250 years of American history into a single story.

Plus an especially excellent headline for our Patreon listeners.

Kiran is on all socials as @kswaggu, give her a follow!

'Donald Trump is selling Truth Social posts?!' Yup, you read that right! Donald Trump is selling his 'market moving' Truth Social posts to anyone willing to pay the $100,000 price tag. Which as you can imagine has attracted some really ethical customers!

Andy Burnham has announced 70,000 new social and affordable houses will be built in the next 10 years. But is this good enough when 1.3 million people are currently on a waiting list for social housing?

Plus Whetherspoons are expanding into the European airport market!

'Have the media learnt nothing?.' Last week professor Jason Arday was found dead after resigning from his post at Cambridge University. He'd been at the centre of a plagarism row which built into an unnecessary media pile on. Cody and Becky reflect on the media's role in this and their disbelief that it felt like a homogeneous, unnuanced response.

And Darwin is right again, this time about tickling. Plus Mark Zuckerberg had achieved the impossible and become even more unlikeable as sales of his Meta glasses go through the roof.
