  • Summary

  • From the rise and fall of Boris Johnson to Putin's 'special operation' in Ukraine; from the cost of living crisis to sending refugees to Rwanda; award winning comedian Mark Steel takes an exasperated and frankly baffled look at the state of the UK and the rest of the world. Joined by comedian (and son) 26-year-old Elliot Steel for the 'youth's' perspective, and a special guest each week, with occasional contributions from the likes of a deceased cricketer and a woman who's overheard in a cafe, Mark tries to answer that age old question: What The F*** Is Going On?!

Brilliant 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏

What the fuck is going on is a brilliant take on the weeks events. A funny piss take on current events and people that makes me laugh so much. Also, some truths that you will not hear on the mainstream media. Just fantastic 👏

BEST OF LUCK MARK YOU ARE AN INSPIRATION

Dear Mark, Such a inspiring brave cast. I've been a fan of yours for the longest time,

Only just finished re-listening to your back catalogue of lectures.

Funny hearing Elliot, his voice reminds me of my own lad Jacob, I'm from Northfleet, Jake from Chalk near Higham, which means he gets out of the bath to have a piss.

Hopes and prayers, rest and get well. we'll be here when you come out the other side. God bless.

Finally... Mark Steel Has His Own Podcast!

Every episode is a great listen. Mark Steel never fails to make me laugh with his witty take on how utterly ridiculous everything is, with the help of celebrity guests and his son Elliot. (who is blessed with his dad's intelligently razor sharp humour). I've listened to the first 10 episodes and look forward to Mark doing more. It'll keep me going until he does another series of Mark Steel's In Town!
