Rachel Reeves's spring not-a-budget has gone down like a cup of cold sick and many Labour supporters are asking what they're backing the party for. Is Labour on the verge of losing popular confidence – and could it win it back?

Kemi Badenoch was supposed to reboot and re-energise the Tories. Now she's tanking in the polls and flailing in the Commons. If she can't beat Farage, will her leadership make it to the end of the summer? Plus, America's slide from functioning democracy to autocracy summons up dark memories of when the same thing happened to the Ancient Roman republic.

Trump starts as viciously as he means to go on, with a confected state of emergency on immigration, attacks on gay and trans people, withdrawals from the Paris Climate agreement and the World Health Organisation, and pardons for the anti-democracy rioters of Jan 6. Reed Galen, co-founder of the anti-MAGA Republican group The Lincoln Project and host of The Home Front podcast, joins us to assess Trump's first moves and the state of the resistance against him. And in the Extra Bit for Patreon backers: Could you boycott visiting the United States while Trump is President? • “Very bad things are going to happen.

As Britain's economic growth slows and gilt returns go up (no, we can't remember what it means either) the Tory press are eager to construct a narrative of “Labour's mess”.

Patreon voted, and this week we're diving into Cornershop's 1997 single “Brimful of Asha”—a song that producer Matt, a true fan, has been waiting for us to cover. Known for blending Indian influences with indie rock, Cornershop crafted a unique song that's a heartfelt tribute to a beloved Bollywood playback singer. Though a remix by Fatboy Slim unexpectedly brought the track to modern rock radio, Cornershop stayed largely in the underground, never hitting the charts again. Join us as we explore this one-of-a-kind band's lasting impact and debate whether they deserved more time in the spotlight.

For this episode we're joined – all the way from sunny Southern California – by L.A. Times legend Robert Hilburn. Bob beams in to discuss his new biography of the peerless Randy Newman, but we start by asking him about the early childhood memories (of his native Louisiana) that he shares with Randy himself. From there he takes us from the Eureka moment of hearing a then-unknown Elvis Presley on the radio for the first time – through his teen years in suburban SoCal – to his early freelance pieces for the Times. Which include his account of accompanying Johnny Cash to Folsom Prison in January 1968... Bob's famously influential 1970 review of Elton John at West Hollywood's beloved Troubadour club gives us a chance to discuss the halcyon days of singer-songwriters and leads directly on to Randy Newman, whose "Troub" debut in the same year Bob also reviewed. We talk at length about the satirical genius behind 'Sail Away', 'Short People' and 'I Love L.A.', revisiting the 50-year-old Good Old Boys in depth and listening to clips from John Hutchinson's 1983 audio interview with Randy. Pieces discussed: Doug Weston: A Man Who Had a Passion for Art of the Troubadour, Elton John @ the Troubadour, Randy Newman @ the Troubadour, Randy Newman audio interview, Thelonious Monk, The Problems of Being Roger McGuinn, Felton Jarvis: Nashville Producer and Cornershop.

The Greens pulled off an all-time best performance in the 2024 General Election, doubling their vote share to a historic high of 6.4% and winning four MPs. But can they handle the transition from outsiders to effective Parliamentary party?

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 Pension Confident Podcast from PensionBee aims to improve listeners' understanding of personal finance – whether that's helping you to navigate the cost of living crisis, exploring the impact of your relationship status on your finances or discussing how to teach kids about money.

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? • The Pension Confident Podcast from PensionBee aims to improve listeners' understanding of personal finance – whether that's helping you to navigate the cost of living crisis, exploring the impact of your relationship status on your finances or discussing how to teach kids about money.

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?

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.

The US Election is just six months away. How come snoozy Trump still leads in several states, even though he's in court every day? We're launching a brand-new US election podcast American Friction and its regular panelist Nikki McCann Ramírez joins OGWN to scope out American's Final Countdown. Plus, last-minute speculation on the local elections. Are our devolved local institutions really “a hot mess”? And in the Extra Bit for Patreon people: Following the fall of Too Nice Guy Humza Yousaf, when are politicians too ruthless – and when are they not ruthless enough? Subscribe to American Friction where our own Jacob Jarvis and Chris Jones make sense of the US Election countdown, along with Nikki and special guests. • “The biggest threat to Trump's candidacy isn't necessarily the trials. It's that the more time he spends in court, the less time he has for campaigning.” – Nikki McCann Ramírez • “It's not ‘The Economy, Stupid' any more because people will literally turn away from the evidence if it doesn't support their view of the candidate they hate.” – Rafael Behr • “The scariest promise that Trump has made is his vow to gut Federal agency staff and replace them with Trump loyalists… He has learned from his first term.” – Nikki McCann Ramírez Support us on Patreon to get early access to all our live tickets plus mugs, t-shirts and more.
