Bias, Bombings & Batshit Takes

<p>Jemma and Marina are back in the scroll, picking apart the stories, headlines and takes that have everyone talking, pondering and shouting.</p><br /><p>They get into growing frustration with the way global events are framed, and why some stories seem to get all the attention while others barely register. There’s a look at how international law is being talked about (and sometimes ignored), plus the narratives shaping coverage of Israel, Gaza and Lebanon.</p><br /><p>Back on home turf,&nbsp;Nigel Farage&nbsp;and Reform are having a bit of a moment with a headline-grabbing stunt that’s raised more eyebrows than applause.</p><br /><p>Elsewhere, there’s a chaotic night out involving politics on the dancefloor, a genuinely surprising story of someone leaving the&nbsp;English Defence League, and a reminder that even in the noise, small shifts in perspective can still happen.</p><br /><p>It’s sharp, it’s funny, it’s occasionally exasperated but there’s enough to keep you thinking long after you’ve stopped scrolling.</p><br /><p>Thank you for sharing and please do follow us @MarinaPurkiss @jemmaforte @TheTrawlPodcast</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Patreon</p><p><a href="https://patreon.com/TheTrawlPodcast" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://patreon.com/TheTrawlPodcast</a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Youtube</p><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/@TheTrawl" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/@TheTrawl</a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Twitter</p><p><a href="https://twitter.com/TheTrawlPodcast" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://twitter.com/TheTrawlPodcast</a></p><br /><p>If you’ve even mildly enjoyed The Trawl, you’ll love the unfiltered, no-holds-barred extras from Jemma &amp; Marina over on Patreon, including:</p><br /><p>• Exclusive episodes of The Trawl Goss – where Jemma and Marina spill backstage gossip, dive into their personal lives, and often forget the mic is on</p><p>• Early access to The Trawl Meets…</p><p>• Glorious ad-free episodes</p><br /><p>Plus, there’s a bell-free community of over 3,300 legends sparking brilliant chat.</p><br /><p>And it’s your way to support the pod which the ladies pour their hearts, souls (and occasional anxiety) into.
