I had Natasha Hirst on this week to talk about the importance of journalism and the role it plays in today's society. I was spurred on to get Natasha on after seeing lots of comments all over social media slamming' All journalists' I feel that it's super important now more than ever to have a free press and quality journalism holding people to account.

NEVER GOING HOME WITH FUZZ CHUCAS EPISODE 16 - Natasha Hirst. NUJ Activist- Talking the importance of the free press

Today's guest had to bail last min so I made up for it alone. I talk about the absurdity of the Borris - Cummings scandal. How sad it is to see all the hard work and sacrifice millions of us in the UK have done undermined by a not even politician and the sad incompetent leader that won't take control of the ordeal. It get's a bit lively around that but it's impossible not to be when theres so much suffering and sacrifice made from us all. Stay strong everyone look after each other and let's get through this together.

NEVER GOING HOME WITH FUZZ CHUCAS EPISODE 15 - WTF are we doing in the UK? (Solo no guest)

I caught up with Jack an old friend who now teaches as a Criminologist at UWE. We talk about Criminology and sociology, the current effect of policing after years of austerity, the lockdown situation between England and Wales and the total hypocrisy of Cummins breaking lockdown rules whilst the rest of the country face fines for doing so.
