There's a new episode out, we might get a few episodes in a row at this rate. Also it's back to 40 minutes at last.

Edit: Err, yeah.

I thought he had sort of a stereotypical view of Mexico and its culture when he talked about it a couple times, but he is a British comedian who hasn't really been to the area so I rationalized it that way.

And Australia's comfortable racism.

I think they haven't hammered UKIP enough. The positive I can see from this election is that they were told to shove it.

And with Farage gone the news will completely stop paying attention to them.

I've been using Farage as a "well, this would be worse" approach to the Tories, and that was an injection of Lib Dem. Now with them bleeding on the pavement somewhere, what am I to do?

Oh yes, I emigrated to Canada 6 years ago in case this happened

Yeah but Canadians have Harper, who I'd argue is worse. Not by much, but still worse.

So, Google is failing me - can someone clarify the "B-Bulls and R-Bulls" pun? I was looking for lists of West End musicals and can't figure that one out.

Also, Andy cheering wildly at finding someone who knew him but not John was hilarious.

Her B-bulls are as Les Miserables

The site just got a big redesign.

For those curious, it's the same "slipstream" design that roughly 90% of the world's cobbled together startup websites are now using. Though it does have a cool photo of Andy and John presumably recording in Andy's kitchen.

Basically the schedule is 1 Bugle, 2 Satirist for Hire shows and whatever additional bits Andy feels like doing. I'm cool with getting more Satirist for Hire stuff.

Bugle update, John is formally leaving The Bugle and Andy will be going alone with guest hosts. Doesn't sound like its going to be the usual UK panel show crew though. Wyatt Cenac and Sarah Zaltzman named as confirmed guests.

So the Bugle is still alive. Sort of.

The Bugle is now part of Radiotopia as well, so it looks like its future is pretty much certain.

It helps that the schedule is now reliable and that episodes are coming out on Sundays, which is a pretty dead day otherwise in terms of podcasts.

They're one of those companies who are on every Radiotopia podcast, I think it's podcast law that every ad carrying podcast needs to have ads for Squarespace, a food delivery service, a mattress company, a razor company, a DISRUPTIVE clothing company and Audible because every podcast ad I ever hear is of one of those 6.

Bugle listeners love bullshit though so maybe there's some brand synergy going on.

Nish is also gonna be on the next series of Taskmaster, which is the best show on TV. Things are happening for the dude, that's what Bugle co-hosting does for your career.

Hosting not so much.
