The announced easing of travel restrictions between the US and citizens of the UK get us going – but our producer, “Evil Brian,” isn’t sweating it because James will still need the double-jab to show up at his front door. On the international front they cover (or stumble through) the Canadian Parliamentary election, the AUKUS security deal, and whether James is contaminating Toby’s “brand” by making people think he’s an anti-vaxxer. In Culture Corner, James raves about The Many Saints of Newark (Warner Bros.) while Toby praises American Crime Story: Impeachment (FX in the US, BBC airdate TBA). This week’s opening sound is French Foreign Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian opining on the Australia-US-UK submarine deal.
