CanaryPod: Topple Uncaged EP6

Welcome to Topple Uncaged!

Every week, The Canary will be bringing you a new podcast on the media landscape; hosted by me, Steve Topple.

I’ll be giving you the quickest news round-up in the UK in Plucked News. Then, I’ll be going in on some of the biggest stories with a very special guest on Free Flying With… After that, I’ll be taking apart, and taking down, this week’s #bbcqt in Question Time: Topple Chirps Back. And finally, I’ll be bringing you the freshest, most banging political music in Revolutionary Bird Song.

This week’s guests? Former politician and now writer and broadcaster George Galloway, and tip-top rap duo Too Many T’s.

As always, don’t forget to ‘get involved’ by sharing Topple Uncaged, and join the conversation using the hashtag #toppleuncaged on social media.
