What The F*** Is Going On? with Mark Steel

What The F*** Is Going On...? With Mark Steel Episode 44

Mark is joined by comedian Laura Smyth and Elliot Steel as he tries to make sense of rail strikes being popular; pay cuts being unpopular - and what the f*** was going on in the Commonwealth Games opening ceremony! Plus George Galloway on the decision to axe Neighbours, and a woman who Mark heard on a phone-in show complaining about the queues at Dover.

From the rise and fall of Boris Johnson to Putin's 'special operation' in Ukraine; from the cost of living crisis to sending refugees to Rwanda; award winning comedian Mark Steel takes an exasperated and frankly baffled look at the state of the UK and the rest of the world. Joined by comedian (and son) 26-year-old Elliot Steel for the 'youth's' perspective, and a special guest each week, with occasional contributions from the likes of a deceased cricketer and a woman who's overheard in a cafe, Mark tries to answer that age old question: What The F*** Is Going On?!
