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?!

    What The F*** Is Going On? with Mark Steel – Ep 124

    Mark is joined by Dr Phil Hammond for a special extended interview about Mark's 'cancer journey' – as they would no doubt call it on Britain's Got Talent!  As a comedian, author and retired doctor, no one is better placed than Phil to give some informed and highly entertaining expert opinion on Mark's experiences, advances in medical science, and the current state of the NHS.
     
    The conversation covers everything from King Charles to East Grinstead – and whether arsenic is really used as a cancer treatment. It's a frank, no-holds barred discussion that contains graphic sexual references and other grown up stuff that needs to be talked about more!

AnnePank ,

Great addition to my podcast library!

Thoroughly enjoying the weekly review from Mr Steel and guests. Pithy and hilarious as always. Trying to make sense of the current political absurdities is a tough gig.
