Summary

Why has Gary Lineker's career at the BBC ended after 30 years? Who has been enabling Diddy for decades in his infamous 'freak-off' parties? Why did Marina queue for three hours in Westfield for a tiny plastic doll - and was it worth it? Richard Osman and Marina Hyde investigate the sordid Diddy trial for sex trafficking and racketeering and ask if anyone else is to blame for enabling celebrity monsters. Tim Davie sets out his vision for a renewed BBC last week, the pair discuss the future of the public service broadcaster in the UK. What the hell is a Labubu? And where are 20-somethings obsessed with a cheap plastic toy from China? Marina has the scoop from the frontlines (of late-stage capitalism).
