This Week In Lies This Week In Lies

Welcome back! In this series we have a new format, debating a single topic and trying to come to a conclusion. This week's question is a simple one: is democracy good? We talk through issues such as participation, tyranny of the majority, the public's responsibility to be an informed electorate and whether everyone not named Adam should be guillotined. http://ia600903.us.archive.org/28/items/S6Democracy/S6Democracy.mp3

This week we discuss the despicable traitor Edward Snowden, depress ourselves further with the policies of George/Jeffrey Osbourne and (sort of) discuss the protests in Turkey and Brazil, as well an epic filibuster in Texas. We also set out the changes for the next series at expense of True Lies, so no Arnie impression. Sorry everyone. For the week beginning 8th July 2013 http://ia600903.us.archive.org/17/items/Series5LASTEPISODE/Series5LASTEPISODE.mp3

This week we discuss Woolwich and its implications (and come to a few simple conclusions), Obama's defence of drone strikes and may tip slightly towards a pro-EU stance when looking at dissension in the Tory ranks. Plus there's a very good edition of True Lies. For the week beginning 27th May 2013. http://ia801707.us.archive.org/19/items/Series5episode6TWIL/series5episode6TWIL.mp3

This week, after an extra week off, we mainly discuss the local elections and the rise of a certain anti-EU party. Brace yourselves, it is a LONG section. We may also have talked about US gun control, Guantanemo, comedy terrorism and had another round of True Lies, but that was during a UKIP induced rage-blackout so we can't be too sure. For the week beginning 6th May 2013 http://ia601703.us.archive.org/12/items/Twils5ep5/twils5ep5.mp3

This week we discuss a "polarising figure" (4 pence if you can guess which one) in some depth. We also revisit North Korea, Syria and the returning of Knighthoods, along with another round of True Lies. For the week beginning 15th April 2013. http://ia601700.us.archive.org/33/items/Twilseries5episode4edited/twilseries5episode4edited.mp3

This week we have a good long chat about the economy, firstly Cyprus and then the domestic Budget. We also have appearances from UKIP, Arab Spring News!, and those lovable rogues North Korea. Our 3 stories game returns (with a new name) after Ben's dog and Adam ruined the previous one. For the week beginning 2nd April 2013. http://archive.org/download/Twilseries5episode3edited/twilseries5episode3edited.mp3
