THE TRAWL GOSS – 2025 UNEDITED REFLECTION

No clips. No editing. No guests.

In this unedited end-of-year special, Marina Purkiss and Jemma Forte sit down and reflect on everything The Trawl has covered over 2025. They remember the stories that shocked them, the moments that made them laugh, and the news cycles that left them genuinely lost for words. They also indulge in a bit of nostalgia, recalling how they met and how the podcast began. Then Marina is very rude about a pair of Jemma's trousers which changes the tone somewhat.

From political chaos and media pile-ons to internet absurdity, culture wars and the moments of unexpected joy that cut through the noise, this is a candid conversation about what it’s been like to trawl the feed week after week during one of the strangest years in recent memory.

A chance to pause, take stock, and exhale before whatever 2026 decides to throw at them.
