Hello, Buglers, and welcome to issue four thousand three hundred and seventy-five of The Bugle. I'm Andy Zaltzman. It's Tuesday the 14th of April, twenty twenty-six, and here in London, spring has sprang. The birds are in the sky. N-not all of them, obviously. Um, in fact, probably statistically, a majority of the birds a-are not in the sky. Generally, that's, that's the case, I think. [laughs] Um, in fact, I don't know what percentage of birds are in the sky at any one time anywhere in the world. I don't know, so if they're just in the air, but a bit off the ground, does that count as being... I don't think that counts as being in the sky. [laughs] But anyway, the point is- [laughs] ... some of the birds are in parts of the sky. [laughs] The, the, the worms, the worms are in the ground. Fairly sure that's a significant majority. The sharks are in the swimming pool, very small minority, and on a purely interim basis. And the leopard is in the shed. What are you doing in here? [growling] [door slamming] Right. Uh, sorry. Well, well, yeah, the point is, The Bugle and Mother Nature are in perfect, uh, harmony, or at least a state of functional coexistence. Uh, joining me for the definitive verdict on the state of the planet right this second, I'm delighted to welcome back to The Bugle, Sarah Baron and Anu Vadpal. Hello to both of you.
