What was that quote from @tomswarbrick.bsky.social ‘s show today? America’s soap opera of a government is collapsing under the weight of its own drama? Wish I had coined that one! 🖊️ 🎯

Going all in on Bitcoin at 4pm today. U.K. pension funds warned not to invest in Bitcoin… We’re told that the U.K. Government hasn’t bought in, as Trump suggests he’ll create a "strategic national bitcoin stockpile." What do you think?

Remembering the time on Desert Island Discs that the late John Motson said his luxury item would be a box of tissues. I think about that a lot tbh.

@tomswarbrick.bsky.social I listen every day to you from 4pm. You always say something to make me laugh! Loving the Captain Tom discussion!

On @lbc.co.uk now re the Captain Sir Tom Moore Foundation report which is….CRAZY!!

It’s cold…

"Everyone else has to pay inheritance tax if they're over the threshold. Why not farmers?" @tomswarbrick.bsky.social headed down to the farmers' protest in London.

Props to Tom for playing the Partridge clip of him arguing with farmers, in the middle of a phone in which he’d invited already angry farmers to call.

Live on the radio @lbc.co.uk from 4pm The row between the government and farmers gives us a great excuse to roll out A LOT of Alan Partridge clips… Check out LBC on Global player www.globalplayer.com/live/lbc/lon...

I’m quite addicted to @lbc.co.uk , this is a great programme on a daily basis & there’s always bits that make me chuckle. But as an ex radio prod, it still annoys me when Trump aides like Sebastian Gorka are up their own Whitehouses, he was rude and fair play to presenters like TS for keeping cool.
