It's a Trash-a-Fada crossover extravaganza! We had a delightful discussion with Alice, Riley and Milo of TrashFuture about labour organising at the end of the world, and then we venture back into the mind of Toby Young as he weighs the lives of the British public against a feather and decides if they live or die to appease the great and powerful Economy.

| 0:15.0 | So I'm currently living at my mums at the moment and my mom being a mom listens to like mom radio right which if you're not familiar with BBC radio too it's it's mom radio. They play old songs and they play new songs which are deemed sanitary enough for mums like country music or whatever. Now there's a radio show on in the afternoon's called |
| 0:21.3 | Jeremy Vine which is a British talk radio show hosted by the eponymous Jeremy Vine where he just has like I've encountered this before but I've never been exposed to it on such a like long timeline and he just has like absolutely |
| 0:34.1 | deranged phone-ins which of course at the moment are even more deranged than normal. |
| 0:38.6 | Like he was inviting joggers and dog walkers to phone into his show and argue with each other |
| 0:45.3 | over who should give whom more space on the pavement as part of social distancing. |

| 1:13.4 | And so then he goes like, well, one method that has been put forward is that we should |

| 1:31.8 | suburban mums slowly becoming mowers. |
| 1:34.3 | Suburban mums hold up half the sky. |

| 1:45.1 | started replying to me and you know what maybe it'll come on the podcast who knows? |
| 1:48.4 | Yeah and Shalah maybe hey you know what Jeremy Vine come on the podcast and tell everyone they need to build pig iron smelters in their gardens. |
