Description

The Trawl is the podcast that dives headfirst into the political chaos, media spin, and social media absurdity of the week - so you don’t have to.


Hosted by broadcasters and political commentators, Jemma Forte and Marina Purkiss, it’s part therapy, part takedown, and always unfiltered.


Each episode, Jemma and Marina trawl through the week’s most viral tweets, jaw-dropping headlines, and rage-inducing soundbites - offering sharp analysis, dark humour, and the occasional expletive. From Westminster to world affairs, they call out hypocrisy, amplify truth, and remind you that you’re not losing your mind - just living through it.


If you’ve ever shouted at the news or laughed through the tears, The Trawl is your people.

I do enjoy this pod. Honest and open about the issues of the week, speaking truth to bell-ends. It's like listening to banter between a couple of mates who actually know something about politics and media. And like good mates, they admit it if they get it wrong, which is so refreshing. Long may it continue.
I wanted to like this but instead I found it trite, trivial and a waste of time. Both presenters are irritating, fatous and empty-headed. The do nothing good for the lefty cause.
Hilarious. Obviously, it upsets Tory w***s but, who cares? The truth is Forte and Purkiss spend a huge part of their lives focused on the state of UK politics and having serious discussions about it on various shows and forums. That is probably quite emotionally draining cosidering what a s***show the UK is right now. I wish I had witty, clever friends like these two. As I don't, it is really nice to listen them talk about politics in a relaxed, natural and very funny way. Love it!
