This week's episode was recorded in January live at The Slapstick Festival in Bristol. Armando Iannucci, co-creator of The Thick Of It, Veep, Alan Partridge and so many other comedy icons, joins Robin to talk about the state of satire in 2022. Armando's latest book is Pandemonium : Some verses on the Current Predicament, an epic mock-heroic poem, written in response to the pandemic, but they don't really get round to that what with everything else going on. SUPER extended edition for Patreon supporters this week with over half an hour of extra content including discussions about The Death of Stalin and a bunch of audience questions.
