About the episode

Nish’s inappropriate occurrences report at Glastonbury is in: there were people kissing, some people had their butts out and nobody seemed to be slapping on the SPF - all very inappropriate. But this isn’t what the right-wing press or the government has taken issue with… You’ve heard it already - the controversy around Kneecap and Bob Vylan’s sets engulfed the political discourse over the festival weekend. But is the controversy the real story here? Nish and Coco shine a light on some of what was REALLY said at Glastonbury and question why those messages didn’t receive as much airtime.  Later, as the government recovers from the brink of political crisis and the Chancellor’s position is drawn into question, Nish and Coco are joined by journalist and author Frances Ryan to discuss the u-turns on u-turns that led to the government’s welfare bill passing. But the battle isn’t over yet.  Finally, Men’s health in the UK is in a sorry place. Nish is joined by Movember’s Dr Zac Seidler to discuss the government’s upcoming Men’s Health Strategy and why young men are being sucked into the manosphere.   SEE US LIVE!  https://crossedwires.live/podcast/pod-save-the-uk Useful Links:  Contribute your thoughts to the Men’s Health Strategy  https://consultations.dhsc.gov.uk/mens-health-strategy  Frances Ryan: Who Wants Normal?  https://www.penguin.co.uk/books/455467/who-wants-normal-by-ryan-frances/9780241629437  Write to your MP about the Welfare Benefit Cuts! https://www.writetothem.com/ Guests: Frances Ryan  Dr Zac Seidler Audio credits: BBC Pod Save the UK is a Reduced Listening production for Crooked Media.
