Ah the old logo featuring the quitter is back. Nice touch, Chris.

Speaking as someone who discovered The Bugle roughly 8 years ago and went through all the backlog available at the time, this has been the best Christmas Special of the year and, perhaps, of the decade.
-
Honestly I’m glad to see how John’s return confirms that the Bugle is alive and well. I wouldn’t want to substitute him with all the regulars since he left. I’m happy to see John and Andy together, it’s a lovely moment in this audio newspaper’s history. And it would be amazing if he could appear slightly more often than once every half a decade. But really, i love where the Bugle is at. I think it has become better.

IT'S JOHNNY SHOWBIZ HIMSELF!!!!
-
Technically, John is now officially "The American", and as such, should have recorded the entire show while riding a Jet Ski.
-
John whipping out his accent in front of his friends is the best

I love Nato, Anuvab, Tiff and all the others on the Bugle, especially Alice and Nish, but the chemistry between these two is unbeatable.

Vanity Smurf is back! It's a Christmas miracle!

John you will be pleased to know we actually have Spready Mercury here in Wiltshire working hard with Usain Salt, Arnold Schwartzegritter and the Grittersaurus to name just a few...!

How to make John Oliver laugh: an entire segment of puns Referring to frogs as "copulating Kermits"✔️
-
I like this co-host, he's like a white Nish Kumar... Hopefully he'll join the regular rotation and take a bit of the workload from Alice.
-
this is like a one hour Last Week Tonight. A Christmas gift for all.
-
John Oliver is among America's most prized citizens... challenge me.

3:54 seems like a missed opportunity not to call one of those snow plows Wayne Gritzky.

2020 is rubbish but the existence of this video is great...you win some you lose some I guess
