Kiran Saggu: Love Island Racism, Domestic Violence Spike & Trump Rewrites History
The Truth (In My Opinion)Show Notes
Comedian Kiran Saggu is our correspondent this week bringing some incredibly important headlines. In a podcast first, we have a Vogue headline and it's a strong one. Was Love Island star Jasmine Gaziza Müller vilified for being a confident brown girl? We also discuss a rise in domestic violence directly linked to the World Cup in our second headline which might be triggering for some listeners, so do skip that story if so. Finally we try and stuff 250 years of American history into a single story.
Plus an especially excellent headline for our Patreon listeners.
Kiran is on all socials as @kswaggu, give her a follow!

'Call me naive but I didn't think fridge freezers could be hacked' but boy oh boy have they been hacked! Frances supermarkets have fallen victim to their freezers being hacked and Cody thinks it's pretty scary... We also discuss the AI hot girls stealing standup sets, the AI pink panther stalking protests and Elon Musks flying car. Futuristic ep!
Author and broadcaster Natasha Devon is our correspondent this week. Cody endured another embarrassing moment by asking a weekly news commentator with a show on news channel LBC whether she is a newsy person. Natasha’s headlines were however not embarrassing, covering everything from Meghan Markle’s £112 advent calendar to Kemi Badenoch’s avoidance of a potential coalition with Reform UK.
'Could Sally Rooney join the Taliban?' because her support of proscribed terrorist group Palestine Action has led to her books no longer being available to buy in the UK. Because she is that dangerous! Plus a Reform politican wears AI glasses to deliver a perfect speech in the Senned and Stevie Wonder and Girls are back!
Somehow international popstar Becky Hill came to Cody's house to record a special episode of The Truth (In My Opinion). This week is a shits in our rivers, poops in our seas, crap in our lakes special. The water companies better be listening, we're onto you!
Many of you having been writing in with your questions about the far right party Reform UK. They still confound lots of us, particularly when it comes to understanding why family or friends might actually vote for them. In this episode, Cody fields SOME of the MANY questions we received about Nigel Fararsehole's merry band of arseholes. What do they actually stand for? Why are they allowed to be a business? And are being too harsh on the people that actually vote for them?
