Summary

Homelessness is a topic that, sadly, never goes away, so in this week's podcast Mick chats to Maeve McClenaghan, investigative journalist and host of brilliant podcast The Tip Off, about what she discovered when she started looking into the number of people dying homeless on Britain’s streets. The US election is less than a week away and Hannah talks about the best/worst case scenario with American comedian Kate McCabe. Mick's picked another war film for Rated or Dated, 1970s Kelly's Heroes, and Hannah's got an oddball question about Oddball. And in the Bush Telegraph, it's Marcus Rashford 1 The Government 0, even if it didn't go his way this time. Have at it! Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/standardissuespodcast.
