Episode 8 - The Newspapers
<p>Aaaaaaand we're back! It's certainly been a while. Sorry about that, exams, assessments, and all that jazz got in the way! In today's episode, we talk about Newspapers, their biases, and even which ones we read. We also touch a little on the problems that Newspaper media have caused in the past, as well as the scandals they've been involved in, not only reporting, but participating in. Also, it's just us again this week, but we will be having some special guests on at some point in the future!</p> <p><br></p> <p>We do have some recommendations, although no links for them, do be sure to check out:</p> <p><br></p> <p>Yes Prime Minister - The Papers</p> <p>The MP Expenses Scandal</p> <p>The Leveson Inquiry - The Case of Millie Dowler</p> <p>The S*n in general</p> <p>Spitting Image</p> <p><br></p> <p><strong>Our Socials</strong></p> <p><br></p> <p>Alex T-B - @alextantbrown</p> <p>Maeve - @maeves98</p> <p>Alex W doesn't use Twitter, but we forgive him</p> <p>URY - https://ury.org.uk/</p> <p>Jonathan Cooke - joncooke.mu@gmail.com</p>

Special Episode - 23/03/2021
<p>So we decided to do a special episode, where all three of us take some time off wholly discussing politics and instead discuss life, and a little bit of politics too. In this episode we talk about C*vid; the Census 2021; why God won't be listening to our podcast; and cycling helmets, plus many more things. We don't really have any recommendations this week, apart from Jay Foreman's YouTube channel (Alex Woodward's idea). </p> <p><br></p> <p>We've also put some links down in the description if any of you need to talk to someone about life at the moment.</p> <p><br></p> <p><strong>Special Links</strong></p> <p>Mind - <a href="https://www.mind.org.uk/information-support/helplines/">Helplines page</a> - <a href="https://www.mind.org.uk/">Website</a></p> <p>Samaritans - <a href="https://www.samaritans.org/">Website</a> - Helpline Number is <strong>116 123</strong></p> <p>Young Minds - <a href="https://youngminds.org.uk/">Website</a> - <strong>Helpline text YM to 85258</strong></p> <p><a href="https://www.nhs.uk/service-search/mental-health/find-an-urgent-mental-health-helpline">NHS Mental Health Helpline</a></p> <p><br></p> <p>Our Socials</p> <p>Alex T-B - @alextantbrown</p> <p>Maeve - @maeves98</p> <p>Alex W doesn't use Twitter, but we forgive him</p> <p>URY - https://ury.org.uk/</p> <p>Jonathan Cooke - joncooke.mu@gmail.com</p>

Episode 7 - The B Word
<p>Let us take you back to before the C-word was everyone's topic of conversation, to a time where the B-word was everyone's favourite conversation topic. Yes, in this episode we are talking about all things Brexit! We even have a guest, Josh, so that we can address the leave/remain imbalance of our regular co-hosts. In the episode, we give a small background on the Brexit referendum, but mostly we just argue about leaving vs remaining and our reasons for being on each side. Alex T-B and Josh argue for Leave and Maeve and Alex W argue for Remain. It sure is an episode for disagreements.</p> <p><br></p> <p><strong>Recommendations</strong></p> <p><br></p> <p>- Brexit: The Uncivil War (All4)</p> <p>- Brexit Explained - Vanity Fair - <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YJxPok5c7G0">YouTube</a></p> <p>- Brexit Briefly - CGP Grey - <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m3_I2rfApYk">YouTube</a></p> <p>- Brexit Briefly Revisited - CGP Grey - <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J1Yv24cM2os">YouTube</a></p> <p><br></p> <p><strong>Our Socials</strong></p> <p>Alex T-B - @alextantbrown</p> <p>Maeve - @maeves98</p> <p>Alex W doesn't use Twitter, but we forgive him</p> <p>Special Guest - Josh Westwood</p> <p>URY - https://ury.org.uk/</p> <p>Jonathan Cooke - joncooke.mu@gmail.com</p>
