Summary

How much damage has Joe Biden done to his legacy and, more importantly, the credibility of American justice? Granting Hunter Biden a pardon is a kick in the face to anyone clinging onto the idea that the Democrats held the moral high ground in US politics. The Matts discuss the ramifications, and the extraordinary back story, to his decision. Also - is Gregg Wallace finished? Should Jeremy Clarkson give him hope of salvation from terminal disgrace? How complicit is the BBC in Wallace’s behaviour and his downfall? Why is Nigel Farage so coy about it all? The Matts try to make sense of it all. Enjoy!

0:47.1	mats podcast listeners. And you can cancel any time you like. So it's an unrepeatable offer to
0:53.5	dip your toe into a whole new world of
0:56.5	journalism. Hello and happy Monday. Happy Monday everyone. Yeah, I hope you're having a good one or had a good one.
1:02.4	I had a good one with Liverpool. Absolutely. Absolutely. Destroying Manchester City. And we're now
1:07.1	in well into it. I mustn't fall into this Nick Robinson trap constantly boring on about football.
1:12.7	Or should I?
1:13.4	I think that's in the rearview mirror and Matt.
1:16.8	So...
1:17.6	But we did wake up to some...
1:19.1	I thought it was quite extraordinary news.
1:20.8	I did too.
1:21.5	And I think that I'm glad you did because it...
