From the makers of The Bugle, this is a weekly show that skips the news pages and takes a sideways glance at the nonsense contained within the culture, celebrity, tech, science and advice sections of the news.
Alice Fraser is joined every show by two great comics from across the globe, bringing 30 minutes of smart satire alongside juvenile nonsense!

Customer Reviews
Stellar show! Five stars and 5 half-a-glass of waters
Alice is a gem of a podcaster, comedian, and part of a comedy crew (The Bugle) that brings delight to my ears at least weekly and as often as I can get it! Guest hosts are delightful and present an array of global perspectives that makes my midwestern US brain much more informed
This might be my favorite podcast
I, like a lot of Buglers, was a bit nervous about the revamp. Alice is a fundamental reason I don’t miss Johnny Showbiz too terribly much. She’s fantastic, & both her Bugle spin-off shows are never anything short of delightful to listen to. The Last Post was quite an adventure, well with a listen it you’ve not yet, & I love the consistency of some of the sponsors (I can’t wait for that book!) into this universe with The Gargle. The Gargle would be something I enjoy even without the connection to The Bugle.
Love love love this for the smarty funnyness
and also pairs well with…
a half a glass of water
