Trash Talk... with Count Binface

Biscuit Jim Creative

Hello and welcome to Trash Talk with Count Binface, It's the smash-hit podcast from planet Sigma IX which is now available on Earth.


I've got a blockbuster of a new podcast - in a nutshell you can expect brilliant interviews and peerless analysis. It's a bit like The News Agents, but with fewer holidays.


Launched for the 2024 Election it was such a success I've decided to keep interviewing some of your Earth experts to find out more about your planet (so I can conquer you).

    Lord Daniel Finkelstein OBE

    Not content with attempting to collect all 650 sitting MPs (Current score: three) we have a new task... collecting all of the sitting peers in the House of Lords, and as of this episode we're on the board with one... the Conservative peer Lord Daniel (Danny to his friends) Finkelstein OBE. Not only have we bagged our first 'Lord' but Danny is also the first Conservative guest on the podcast. This really is an groundbreaking episode. All after we helped get an MP elected last time (polls had it as a two way fight before our interview, landslide result after it... we can't argue with that). So enjoy this House of Lords' special. What should we conquer next...? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    BY-ELECTION SPECIAL featuring Hannah Spencer of the Green Party

    It's been six weeks since our last episode... and what a mess you humans have made. Myself and the Countess have made a new binling, so there's an election this week and I'm back with a special episode featuring one of the candidates. Before you accuse old Binface of showing bias - Hannah approached us. So fair's fair... if any of the other candidates want to get grilled by Binface get in touch... if you're brave enough. You know who you are... but for everyone else this is who the invite goes out to... Full list of candidates standing in the Gorton & Denton by-election: Monster Raving Loony Sir Oink A-Lot Advance UK Nick Buckley Conservative Charlotte Cadden Libertarian Dan Clarke Reform Matt Goodwin SDP Sebastian Moore Rejoin EU Joseph O'Meachair Liberal Democrats Jackie Pearcey Green Hannah Spencer Labour Angeliki Stogia Communist League Hugo Wils Hosted on Acast.

    Susie Dent & Your Political Presents...

    Merry Christmas Earthlings. Can we first apologise to anyone in Croydon who saw a bright star in the sky last night - before any local wise men (or women!) head to Boots to buy up any stocks of Myrrh - we can clarify that someone just temporarily leant on the cloaking device switch in the Alboreto. You'd think it would happen more frequently - but it hasn't happened for about 2000 of your Earth years. Anyway - onto our guest for this seasonal special - and we're thrilled to talk to the lexicography and etymology queen - Susie Dent It's a real treat - and our gift to you - a thank you if you've listened to the podcast at all this year. We do appreciate your loyalty. Have a Merry Christmas, and we'll be back in the New Year. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    Welcome to our BBC special episode where we discuss the *********** of a week where the UK's national broadcaster shot itself in the foot, and then in the other foot and then again in the face. It comes just a week after the most glorious of success stories for the BBC - The Celebrity Traitors. So as well as focussing on the departure of the Director General and Head of News - we have invited an old friend back to talk about treachery, deceit, lying and generally being a traitor. Welcome back Paul 'Van Der Traitors' Gorton! Enjoy Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Well despite the fact that we're not being paid for this - we've decided to shop up anyway - partly because we have a great guest to bring you. Have you seen Chris Barker's brilliant year-in-review montages? You can see them all on his website. He's been doing them for a decade and this year will be his last. So before he hangs up his Photoshop tools we wanted to find out what inspired them, what stands out and importantly what we can tell from ten years of 'humanity' It's a fascinating conversation - so do enjoy!

    Richard Herring

    On this week's potentially award-winning episode of Trash Talk with Count Binface is esteemed Earth comedian Richard Herring. He's made cancer funny, poked fun at fascism and even made a whole show about your funny human male reproductive organ - so what will 45 minutes with Count Binface bring? Well... has the BBC forgotten how to do comedy? What's the obsession with Edinburgh? And does having teachers for parents make it inevitable that you'll go into comedy. BREAKING NEWS - as we record this it seems Peter Mandelson (sorry... LORD Peter Mandelson... FFS) has been sacked / asked to stand down / professionally removed from office AGAIN. This unfortunately means we didn't have space to talk about Nadine Dorries, flags on lamp-posts, Angela Rayner, or any of what passes for 'news' in America at the moment. If you liked this episode may we suggest some others you might like?

It's the 50th episode of Trash Talk with Count Binface next week... so maybe we'll receive a nice card or two. Not that we're saying Donald sent that card to Jeffrey, because he definitely didn't. It's fake news that it was in his style & tone and had his signature on the bottom. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    Jemma Forte

    On this week's podcast is political commentator and co-host of The Trawl podcast Jemma Forte. Jemma recently worked with the political campaigners Led By Donkeys to take down Elon Musk on the side of one of his Tesla factories... that kind of heroism will definitely get you a spot on Trash Talk! Mind you Jemma's also been the captain of her own space ship The Sub Zero... but you'll have to listen to the podcast if you want that sentence to make any sense. If you're reading this then your thumb is only inches away from the 'Follow' button and the 'Review' button - it'd be almost as good as a vote if you could click on both. CB Hosted on Acast.
