What The F*** Is Going On...? With Mark Steel Episode 46

Mark is joined by author Jenny Colgan and Elliot Steel as he tries to make sense of water companies dumping raw sewage into the sea, the chances of Scottish independence - and Elliot's recovery from a very nasty wrestling injury. Plus Fred Trueman on his childhood holidays splashing about in discharged nuclear waste, and a woman that Mark overheard in a cafe talking about the cost of living crisis.

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?!
