Episode 26.5 - Fake News Part II

A lapsed quasi-satanist, a self-proclaimed science buff (with only a GCSE grade B in Physics) and a drug-addled lunatic attempt to navigate the irradiated wastelands and dung-hills of ignorance that is the Post-Truth Apocalypse. A smorgasbord of colourful language, drunken ramblings and the occasional "fact". Fact. Hosted by Ben, Gaz and Mike. Warning #explicit content! This week 'The Boys from the Apocalypse' conclude their fake news odyssey. They discuss such topics as, war propaganda, propaganda in Hollywood movies and television, the manufacturing of consent in the MSM, the ownership of media in the US and UK, Edward Bernays (the father of modern PR), free speech vs hate speech, North Korea propaganda, Pizzagate, the Powell Memorandum, the anti-vax movement, and the Pope's views on fake news. Also, fake news bots, law firm hires first AI lawyer, blind bisexual goose dies aged 40, Brazilian man lives in sand castle for 22 years, the best of Alex Jones' rants, and Gaz and Ben grace us with an impromptu rendition of a David Hasslehoff song. www.facebook.com/cuttingthroughthebull [email protected] @cuttingthroughthebullpta Also on iTunes.
