Mark is joined by Willie Dowling (the musical genius responsible for the stings in the podcast) and Elliot Steel as he tries to make sense of Liz Truss and Kwasi Kwarteng's mini-budget, and asks the question that's on everyone's lips – What The F*** Is Going On?! Plus, Fred Trueman shares his thoughts on the collapse of the pound - and a woman that Mark overheard in a cafe is most distraught about the effect of the economic crisis on her daughter Nectarine.  Get ad-free extended episodes, early access and exclusive content on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/wtfisgoingonpod Follow What The F*** Is Going On? with Mark Steel on Twitter @wtfisgoingonpod Follow Willie Dowling @WillieDowlingJ4 Follow Elliot Steel @elliotsteelcom And visit our website www.whatthefisgoingonpodcast.co.uk for more information.
