Hello Paper Cuts people! If you miss our lovely show, don’t worry. We’re getting the band back together for a look at the opinion columns, monthly on The Bunker. Paper Cuts survivors Miranda Sawyer and Jonn Elledge join Andrew Harrison to choose the weirdest (and occasionally best) columns of the month… so you don’t have to. This time: Telegraph reverse-ferrets on Trump, Sarah Vine goes H.A.M. on the Beckhams, everyone tries to wring something out of The Traitors… and much more!
We’ve got a big scoop for you today! Miranda Sawyer is back with a brand new podcast. Talk ’90s to me is out now and will be with you every Monday. The show dives deep into a wild decade of chaos, creativity and hedonism – from Oasis to ‘Friends’, from grunge to girl power, from Kate Moss to alcopops to ‘Trainspotting’ and beyond. Join Miranda as she meets the people who were really there for the decade of Cool Britannia, Cantona and the Chemical Generation.
Hello Paper Cuts listener! We all miss the good old show. Our brand new podcast CRIME SCENE is very different… but we thought you might like a taster.
We read the papers so you don’t have to. Today: We say goodbye to Paper Cuts as the Daily Star crowns Rachel Reeves the next “lettuce.” Kate Lister adopts a new philosophy over at The i, so Miranda and Gráinne are ready to embrace the “let them” theory. Finally – at The Mail, an anonymous reader is worried about his wife’s fascination with pegging – so we've brought in Jonn to offer his sage-like wisdom on the subject.
We read the papers so you don’t have to. Today: The Metro lists some of the most shocking moments from kids’ TV staple Blue Peter. Meanwhile, Gail’s Bakery is taking over the bougie high streets of the UK, does yours qualify? Plus, The Daily Mail explains why kids are so badly behaved and yes, it involves their past lives, of course.
