The Bugle, audio newspaper for a visual world!

Hello Bugleers and welcome to issue 4251 of the Bugle.

I am Andy Zoltzman, live in London.

It is the 30th of January 2023 and I'm delighted to report that despite rumours to the country,

Planet Earth has just been recommissions for another 5-year stint that had been talked.

For the end of 2025, it would be it for the planet with several new planets applied

with one of the franchise slots and Earth's form having, of course, flatline drastically in recent times.

But we are staying put at least until 2030.

It's bad news for Neptune though, which has not had its contract renewed.

And it's a very rare place.

By a new planet in January 26, the bidding process is now open and according to rumours,

Elon Musk's Megasphere company or amongst the front runners having promised the first cubic planet,

which would also be the second most livable planet after Earth.

With atmosphere of 50% nitrogen,

then 50% musky and tetra oxide, and you gas, and makes people impervious to criticism.

So what an exciting time to be welcoming my 2nd co-host this week.

Firstly, giggling away in South London.

It's Mark Steele. Hello, Mark.

Hello, I just have excellent news about the new planet.

I know it's been a little bit of a fan of Neptune.

Yeah. Yeah, it's Charles.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.
