Going For Gold - The Wrap Up #47

Comedy Ethics, Punching Up and UK Healthcare

The hosts discuss the ethics of comedy, emphasizing the rule of "punching up" rather than "punching down" when making jokes about sensitive topics like health or disability. They transition into a critique of the current state of the UK healthcare system, noting the difficulty of securing GP appointments. A neighbor's claim about doctors receiving £10 per COVID-19 vaccination is mentioned as a source of local frustration.
