Summary

Suella Braverman, Lee Anderson, Rishi Sunak ... are we falling into their trap by focussing on asylum seeker barges and taskforces against "dodgy lawyers" while the real story of this government's abject incompetence is ignored? And talking of absolute cults, the Two Matts say goodbye to two giants of culture - Jamie Reid and William Friedkin - and come up with their own Top 5 list of people who changed our culture forever.

Before we go any further, I realise that many of you must have been listening to this podcast thinking,

0:05.2

I really like this. I really like the sound of the New European, but I'm not quite sure I want to

spend loads of money to find out if I do like it. So I have got a proposal for you, a whole month

of the New European for one pound. If you like it, you can carry on paying five pounds a month.

dip your toe into a whole new world of

0:56.5

journalism. Hello, I'm Matt Kelly. And I'm Matt Dancona. And this is the two mats for the week

1:02.5

ending Friday, the 11th of Orcast, a podcast which does not lag, at least not after the edit. Why

1:20.2

We're spreading out.

1:21.7

It's all part of the master plan.

1:23.8

It is.

1:24.3

And it's been very enjoyable, actually.

1:25.6

So I think personally, and I'd love to know from, if listeners had a view on
