Ep 179: Trumpy Rantings and Vance Vagaries
The Trawl - A podcast by Jemma Forte & Marina Purkiss

Summer's over and the Trawl ladies start this pod with some inspiring chat about how to cope with the shorter days. Let's get fat and sassy everybody! Then they hop over to the States because there's a lot of pre Trump Harris debate to cover which frankly is Trawl gold. Though one of the revelations about Trump's washing habits is pretty stinky - oh dear, or should that be odour. The Donald is lashing out all over the shop, his tweets are all in CAPS and apparently Harris is an illegal alien. Okaaaa. Still, has he finally admitted that he did lose the election? Meanwhile, Fox are also on the brink. They've got a lot to say about the fact Tim Walz once drunk a milkshake with a straw which apparently is not masculine. Jemma and Marina wonder what is a masculine way to drink a shake. The mind boggles. In the pre election build up, Trump and Vance are light on policy but heavy on waffle. For instance, Vance thinks the answer to childcare being so unaffordable is to just get your family to do it.... so that's that solved. There's a lot of stuff to plough through, much of it toe curling, all of it Trawl worthy.
