Before we go any further, I realise that many of you must have been listening to this podcast thinking,

I really like this. I really like the sound of the New European, but I'm not quite sure I want to

spend loads of money to find out if I do like it. So I have got a proposal for you, a whole month

of the New European for one pound. If you like it, you can carry on paying five pounds a month.

That's a little more than a pound a week. But if you've been sitting there thinking I'd like to get

the New European, but I'm not sure I really want to spend the money, now's the time to go for it.

Just one pound and it's yours for a month. Go to the new European.com.ukuk

forward slash two mats. This offer is the best you'll get anywhere and it's exclusive to two

mats podcast listeners. And you can cancel any time you like. So it's an unrepeatable offer to

dip your toe into a whole new world of

journalism. Hello and happy Sunday. Happy Sunday one and all. I have to warn you folks, we're starting

off with a question in which there is an expletive. Not deleted. Not an undeleted expletive. Dimitri in Leeds asks,

I challenge either one of you not to say the phrase,

we're fucked.

Please excuse my gratuitous use of all caps.

I learned the technique from a bigly expert in tweetography.

Okay.

Are we fucked, Matt?

No.

I mean, I'm quite happy to say the words we're fucked if it gives Dimitri needs to satisfaction, you know, and enjoy your Sunday, Dimitri.

My favourite, we're all fucked, by the way.

It's a wonderful expression.
