Hi guys.

0:18.0

We are recording a special mini episode, a mini-sode, if you will, to react to a busy Monday morning

0:28.0

of UK political news. A quick summary of the event is that Suela Bravaman, as many people predicted,

0:37.0

has been sacked as home secretary and replaced by James Clevely, the former foreign secretary.

0:45.0

However, in a move that less people had anticipated, James Clevely's replacement as foreign secretary

is former Prime Minister and Disturber of Pigs, David Cameron, which is obviously a huge surprise

Yeah, it's been a rollercoaster morning. My first thought was, wow, how good of the king to be so readily available today,

2:10.0

I mean, what were your first instincts about it?

2:14.0

Well, how I feel about all this Koko can actually be summarized by some correspondence we've had in from the listeners.

2:19.0
