On this week's podcast is political commentator and co-host of The Trawl podcast Jemma Forte. Jemma recently worked with the political campaigners Led By Donkeys to take down Elon Musk on the side of one of his Tesla factories... that kind of heroism will definitely get you a spot on Trash Talk! Mind you Jemma's also been the captain of her own space ship The Sub Zero... but you'll have to listen to the podcast if you want that sentence to make any sense.

SUPER BOWL SPECIAL with Iron Mike Carlson
Happy Super Bowl weekend to those who celebrate (which is a LOT of you). Super Bowl LIX is expected to be watched by almost 200m humans (plus a visiting space warrior and Elon Musk). What makes it so popular? Is there anything to learn from its impressive marketing? Politics isn't afraid to borrow a bit of popular culture from time to time... so can we expect to see Kendrick Lamar rapping about democracy at next year's Labour Party Conference... or let's be realistic... Lemar. (American listeners feel free to Google 'Lemar' or 'democracy')Sharing everything he knows about the Super Bowl is legendary American journalist Iron Mike Carlson. He shares why the Super Bowl became the top day in the US sporting calendar, what the players really think about the Half Time Show and pitches a new adults-only version of Ceefax. And THAT'S why this is the greatest podcast on your planet. Go Eagles / Go Chiefs (note to producer - delete one of these on Monday) Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Dr Joelle Grogan
Dr Joelle Grogan is a legal academic, and an expert in the rule of law, working in the fields of EU and UK public law. She's also the presenter of BBC Radio 4's The Law Show. At a time when the Rule of Law seems to have become more of a Gentle Suggestion of Law, when the leader of the free world is a convicted felon, we thought it was a good idea to get the biggest legal brain we know on the podcast to chat about everything legal. If intense serious legal discussion isn't your thing - don't worry the next episode is a Superbowl preview. Don't say we don't offer variety here! Hosted on Acast.

'Trump: The Sequel' with Isaac Davy-Aronson
Well... here we go again. President Trump - we salute you (not like Elon does) - you're President again. So to discuss what 'Trump: The Sequel' will look like we've invited Isaac Davy-Aaronson back to the podcast. As a supervising producer at US news network MSNBC and co-presenter of the excellent Déjà News pod he's seeing the political fallout of a second Trumpian America first-hand. It really does seem that Trump sees everyone in very simple terms - you are either a Faithful, or a Traitor. Where's Claudia Winkleman when you need her?Enjoy! Hosted on Acast.
