Don't Insult My Intelligence (with Chloe Petts and Marianna Spring)

Armando is joined by comedian Chloe Petts to look at whether we're getting more stupid, and whether we get the politicians we deserve.

To get into the weeds of that, they are also joined by BBC's Social Media Investigations Correspondent, Marianna Spring.

With Trump telling an audience 'i could say the stupidest things and you'd clap', we look at how social media and AI are changing our interactions with politicians from both directions, and with Celebrity Traitors as an example, are we suspicious of anyone who displays intelligence?

Elsewhere, we find out what's under Armando's kilt, hear a long goodbye from an AI agent, and invent a very British solution to rioting.
