Oh God, What Now?

Making sense of our political hell every Friday.

  • 1 hour 10 minutes
    Bark at the Honeymoon

    Prime Minister Starmer (still getting used to that) faced his first PMQs this week. How did he do? And does Sunak make a better opposition leader than he does PM? Plus, Kamala Harris is all but confirmed as the Democratic nominee. What attack lines can we expect from the RNC now? Can the oldest presidential nominee in US history, Donald Trump, even afford to fund any more after splurging ageism attacks on Biden? And in the Extra Bit for subscribers: Andy Murray quit, Southgate quit, Biden quit and Liz Truss just won’t quit. The panel discusses when to call it a day and the dangers of outstaying your welcome.

    Wake Me Up Before You Go, Joe

    President Joe Biden’s decision not to run for a second term wasn’t exactly a shock, but what does it mean for the race for the White House? And could Vice President Kamala Harris beat Trump if she were the Democratic nominee? Rolling Stone Magazine politics reporter and co-host of our companion podcast American Friction Nikki McCann Rámirez, joins the panel. Plus, Keir Starmer’s been busy improving relations with Europe. No, we’re not rejoining the EU before you ask, but could things be about to get better with Labour at the helm?

    Special: When the Ministers talked to OGWN

    Keir Starmer’s new cabinet is full of our past guests. So we thought, why not revisit some of those classic interviews to see what they tell us about the big figures of the new era of politics? Come back in time as we talk to David Lammy, Bridget Phillipson, Wes Streeting, Lisa Nandy and Ed Miliband on episodes of Remainiacs and The Bunker of yore. The moral: If you want to get into Cabinet, be a guest on our podcast…

    The Great British Brakes Off

    King Prince Charles makes his first speech of Labour era, announcing a raft of legislation that will “take the brakes off Britain”. What was in it, what wasn’t and what does it all say about how Starmer will govern?

    Trump: The shot heard around the world

    The assassination attempt against Donald Trump shocks the world. Has it handed Trump an unbeatable advantage in the Presidential election? And can Biden withdraw now even if he wants to? Plus, England’s moment of national euphoria in the Euros is fated not to happen. Is the football-based feelgood factor in politics real or just a figment of the collective imagination – or both?

    Ikea Starmer assembles a Cabinet

    Well his dad WAS a toolmaker… What’s on the agenda in Week One of the Brave New Starmer Era? What do we make of Labour’s team? Is the party’s support really “broad but shallow” and does it matter anyway? Plus, as the Far Right is unexpectedly defeated in France, we demand of Marie: Qu’est-ce que cela signifie?


    Andrew’s music choice: Madres by Sofia Kourtesis.

    Matt’s music choice: The Walls by Holly Henderson.

    Election Aftermath 🌹 At Long Last, Victory

    Well, we got the bastards. Dorian Lynskey, Ros Taylor and Andrew Harrison gather in awe before the scale of Labour’s historic achievement. How did Starmer pull it off? What will Labour’s new era of service mean? And did we get the Portillos we wanted? Sure, there are some flies in the ointment – Farage, Corbyn, some tight victories – but this is a good-vibes-only zone. Stay for the end. It gets emotional.
