First up it's a big deep dive on another mental week for Liz Truss.
Then I speak to my fantastic guest Richard Herring about his book 'Can I Have My Ball Back'. It's not just about his experience of testicular cancer but a jumping off point into discussion of masculinity, comedy and why we both love TV quizzes.

0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to episode 168 of All Might's People Things. And listen, I did an episode |
0:20.0 | of this show last Thursday and so much has happened in the meantime. I mean, I just don't |
0:26.3 | like how I could have done a podcast every fucking day. What is what is going on? What is |
0:31.1 | going? Well, that's the job. That's the job of this podcast. It's called what most people |
0:34.8 | think and it is trying to get to the heart of ordinary political views. And you know, there |
0:39.7 | was a time when this podcast was, you know, sort of defending the conservative government |
0:43.7 | and going after labor. Well, you know, I would be a liar if I didn't have lots of criticisms |
0:48.8 | about what's going on at the heart of government. Now, what's also still shining the light |
0:53.2 | on the opposition, asking what the fuck they would do. And if you talk about the mood |
0:56.6 | of the country, I did a Times Radio event on Saturday. I mean, this was a funny thing. |
1:00.2 | It was, I thought it was just me, Hugo Rifkin and Jess Phillips just talking in a studio. |

1:12.8 | of Jess. She's one of those labor people who doesn't hate Tories. And I think in the |
1:16.3 | age of Nicholas Sturge and Detest in the Tories, I guess what's that? I think we need |
1:21.8 | more of that. I think that's important for labor is, you know, I mean, they're trying |
1:24.4 | to win back Tories to not fucking demonize people that have voted for them before. And there |
1:29.7 | was 600 people at least recorded. And I was saying, they looked like, I mean, if you |
1:34.3 | literally had, like, what does a Tory vote look like? You go, well, maybe over the age |
1:37.9 | of 65, silver hair up and about early on a Saturday, you know, those people, you know, |
1:43.4 | when you see them at 10 a.m. and they go, don't just have in some lunch. You know, that |
