Summary

Trump's long anticipated trip to the UK is almost upon us today, to mixed reactions. The Bow Group are actually throwing a welcome reception in his honour, and Chairman Ben Harries Quinny tells Mike and Daisy why they are in favour of his visit.

An ONS study has revealed that middle aged people are the least happy of any age group, so Rachel Hosie of The Independent discusses whether or not there's any truth in that - and if millenials are happier. Mike is experiencing his own version of 'the change' which explains alot.

And finally, a passing comment from Mike dismissing Dr Who leads to first time caller Daniel, a Dr Who fan, to make his case against MG's comments, to comedic effect.
