Welcome to Loserville: Musk's Midnight Musings & Trump's Oval Office Nap

from The Trawl

Jemma and Marina take a break from UK political chaos to zoom out and survey the wider world... and it's not pretty.From Trump's increasingly hard-to-deny Oval Office napping to unravelling ceasefire negotiations in the Middle East, the Trawl ladies serve up their trademark mix of righteous fury and sharp humour. Marina's been deep in Italian passport paperwork (backup plan activated should Farage get in), Jemma's fantasising about a one-way ticket to Lisbon with absolutely zero logistics sorted, and somehow Amsterdam enters the chat as a genuine option.There's a detour to Loserville thanks to Musk's midnight musings, a deep dive into Trump's chaotic social media timeline, and a satirical clip of British police officers that is uncannily accurate.On the brighter side: the BAFTAs delivered - from a Gaza documentary winning despite BBC cowardice, to Martin Lewis being rightfully crowned a national treasure (Marina may have developed a crush). The episode wraps with a Lincoln Project ad airing at Trump's own golf tournament, and the small matter of the trawlers' very first ever live show happening that same evening.
