Way to make Vladimir Putin happy. It's been quite the week.
Andy Burnham has reignited the debate over Russian interference in Brexit. Marina and Jemma get into the murky world of online influence, bots and the extraordinary power of social media to shape what we think. Plus, Trump's reported Russian diesel deal has the Trawl ladies asking precisely whose interests he's serving.
And just when you thought Reform couldn't provide any more material, they turn to its investigation into the Channel 4 undercover sting. An investigation commissioned by Reform, looking into Reform, which concludes that Reform did nothing wrong? Well, what a surprise. Jemma and Marina attempt an apology. It doesn't go brilliantly.
Plus, Bridget Jones, a much-needed reminder that being single in your thirties might not have been quite the catastrophe we were led to believe, and the usual dose of political absurdity to see you through the week.
Don't forget to switch on automatic downloads wherever you listen, it really does help the pod.
Enjoy!
