Satirical mash-up thing of current events curated by Jon Holmes. The clips below give you an idea of what to expect. “If ever there was an audio version of Coldwar Steve, it might well be this! Incredible.” “Cassette Boy meets Blue Jam. Superb.” “A whole new genre of radio comedy programme invented right there. Clever, funny and scary all at the same time.” “Weirdly, hypnotically funny.

These two episodes are all they've done so far. The BBC haven't commissioned any more (yet).

More likely their marketing person couldn't come up anything headline grabbing for Christmas, so they've recycled this shit instead. (Yes, I realise you were joking. )

My Christmas has been ruined.
