Description

We read the papers so you don’t have to. Today: Just a little recession… Britain slips into a “technical recession”, and we’re confused. Off the rails. TFL has renamed London Overground Lines and some of the press are in a predictable rage. Plus – Isle be off, then. Would you live on a private island?
Alex von Tunzelmann is joined by journalist John Crace of The Guardian and comedy writer Jason Hazeley.

Have you SEEN the state of the papers today? PAPER CUTS has. In our now DAILY podcast, some of Britain’s sharpest commentators and funniest comedians come together to look at the madness, the strangeness, the obsessions, and – occasionally – the brilliance of our national press. Host Miranda Sawyer is joined by journalists and comedians like Fin Taylor, Jonn Elledge, Alex Von Tunzelmann, Grainne Maguire, Rob Hutton, Athena Kugblenu, Marcus Brigstocke and many more.
