Reversals of Fortune

Less than three years ago they were flying high and now they've been subjected to major setbacks. And, no, we're not talking about our intrepid duo. In the last week former President Donald Trump has been put under federal indictment, former Prime Minister Boris Johnson has been run out of Parliament and former Scottish First Minister Nicola Sturgeon has been placed under arrest. Rumors have circulated that this episode sees our hosts coming together in agreement over several major issues instead of the knock-down-drag-'em-out fight predicted over the weekend. You'll just have to listen in. In Culture Corner, both James and Toby take in Patriots at the Noel Coward, the latest play from Peter Morgan (The Crown, Frost/Nixon) that features Tom Hollander as Boris Berezovsky and Will Keen as Vladimir Putin. And - SPOILER ALERT - we wrap up Succession. Opening sound this week is Douglas Ross, Leader of the Opposition in the Scottish Parliament, commenting on Nicola Sturgeon's legal troubles.
