Recorded live in Melbourne, this week’s Bugle is a full-throttle Rage Bait Special, with Andy Zaltzman joined by Lloyd Langford, Sami Shah, and Alice Fraser to chew through the year’s biggest stories with fury, confusion, and jokes of questionable legality.🇦🇺 Australia: We confront the latest tragedies in Australia, and try (with limited success) to process them through satire, empathy, and yelling into the void.🇺🇸 Trump News: Meanwhile, Donald Trump continues to do… whatever it is he’s doing now. We attempt to identify it, label it, and possibly quarantine it.📁 Epstein: We dig a little deeper into what we do and don’t know — and why this story refuses to go away.📆 And we rummage through some of the other best (and worst) stories of 2025, because there’s always more. Always. Angry, funny, cathartic — this is The Bugle doing what it does best, in front of a live Australian audience.🎧 Support The Bugle! Become a Team Bugle subscriber for bonus episodes, exclusive video editions, and the righteous satisfaction of funding satire:http://thebuglepodcast.com📺 Watch Realms Unknown on YouTubeProduced by Tom Wright, Chris Skinner and Laura Turner.
