I'm lifting the lid on a myriad of topics and sharing my thoughts and experiences on a voyage of adventure and discovery that has been more than six decades long. Like a vintage wine, I hope to be easy on the nose, pleasant on the palate, always leaving you with the desire for more and if consumed in too greater quantity, not to be leaving you with a thumping headache!
From across the great pond, we took a look at the recent Presidential debate, Biden versus Trump and the media comment that followed. Whilst Biden stumbled over some of his replies, Trump continued with his usual routine "I'm the greatest", "My golf swing's better than yours" and "All the migrants crossing the southern border are murderers, nutters and rapists"! Dear oh dear, what is going on?
With barely a week to go before Britain decides on their next government, the Conservatives are caught in a betting scandal. A number of aides, candidates and also some Police officers had allegedly placed bets on what day the election was to be held having gained inside information. Nigel Farage, leader of 'Reform' re-iterates his support for Trump and is accused of being Putins poodle. Could it get any worse?
Matt reveals why he wouldn't consider doing drag shows in the future and Simon reminisces touring working men's clubs as a singer, it wasn't glamorous for sure!
I quite like a Sunday afternoon lounging on the sofa, chilling and talking rubbish, especially if the weather's lousy! This week we're talking about our various performing exploits, whether as a stripper or a drag act, or appearing on one of the myriad of TV property programmes! Stories of times past and our 15 minutes of something, but definitely not fame though!
Two weeks into the UK battle for number 10 Downing Street! Finally, it's time for the great British public to cast their vote! So, what of the campaign so far, who are the runners and riders and who will fall at the final hurdle? Will it be a goodbye for the Prime Minister Sunak and a hello for Labour and will the Green Party win a second seat? We unravel the first two weeks of the campaign and are we getting excited? Probably not!
It's the beginning of a long election year in the USA, but will either of the main contenders even make it to polling day? Will Satsuma man Trump be languishing in a federal prison? will Biden remember where he lives and who is wife is? An election looms in England also and believe me the choice isn't great here either. A governing party who's only idea is to send illegal immigrants to another country, but hasn't sent any yet, or the opposition, whose leader can't quite make up his mind what a woman is!
Suffering with a bad back, Simon is joined by Matt, as The Randal Report' moves to the bedroom to discuss the prospects of National Service and a Citizens Army in the face of the growing threat of war! Yeah right! Discuss?
Now that 2023 is done, we follow on from our Christmas episode with a look back at the year and consider what might be in store for us all in 2024. Just two slightly grumpy and cynical seniors, pontificating? Possibly! Or is it just an opportunity to vent some frustration?
Its the Return of 'The Randal Report' co-hosted by my fabulous husband Matt! A seasonal edition, as an opener, with our bug-bears on Christmas shoppers and a re-write of the nativity, just for fun!
That’s news to me, where Mel and I will take three stories that have been currently or recently featuring in the news and in ten minutes or less, add our take on the finer points, yep, just ten minutes or less!
