The brilliant Andrew Doyle co-hosts this week. As you'd expect we start with a re-cap of a historic week.
We then go back to before the death of Elizabeth the Great and pick over Liz Truss's debut PMQs.
Then it's a deep dive on Andrew's fantastic new book.

0:00.0 | Hi, this is Jeff just before the show starts. We recorded this on Monday and obviously with news happening so far |
0:06.4 | So I just thought it's worth letting you know hopefully this will go up on Wednesday morning |
0:10.2 | But obviously the big events have happened since then that we haven't addressed then that'll be what it is |
0:14.4 | Welcome to episode 163 for what most people think and you know what I mean there's been times recently where the idea of being in line with public opinion |
0:38.4 | You know it's drifting a bit economics have become a bit more left-wing but if you get off social media |
0:43.4 | I do think that you know feeling you know sad about the Queen a bit a bit sad and you know the end of an area and you know sort of just something that would be near in your whole life |
0:52.4 | I would imagine would be an incredibly common feeling so I'm really glad that this week I've got with me |
0:59.4 | Well a grown-up to talk to I'll say the brilliant Andrew Doyle welcome to the show mate. Thanks for having me. I mean I've started this off now like a really sombre chat here |
1:09.4 | Yeah, so I'm gonna have to be really serious basically |

1:45.4 | Haven't been jokes at all they've just been sort of really grisly |
1:47.4 | And sort of nasty barbs about gloting about the death of an old woman. It's been really really odd actually |
1:53.4 | I think you know the phrase Twitter isn't Britain |
1:55.4 | I feel like this week more than any because in last week's episode it was a very Twitter centric episode |
2:01.4 | This is the opposite |
2:02.4 | I feel like almost no one is discussing this in the country and the way that people are either using it as a point in time to go |
2:09.4 | Oh let's roll out my kind of republican arguments or people who are you know getting incredibly sentimental about bees |
