Episode Details

We throw the spotlight on the bureaucratic vices of incompetence and intransigence in this week's podcast. We take an in-depth look at the parliamentary inquiry into the child benefits system, which left thousands of families financially and emotionally ruined when they were wrongly tagged as fraudsters. There's a whole lot of voting going on as Forum voor Democratie hold a referendum on Thierry Baudet's leadership and the annual celebration of shopping-mall wallpaper that is the Top 2000 begins. And we ask if Dick Lawyer is really retiring to spend more time with his chickens and who will win the tug-of-love contest for the Netherlands' last surviving circus elephant.
