**Sam and Ali return for a jam-packed 17th FFS Show.**

On this podcast, we find out whether Andrew Marr was right to doubt [Boris Johnson’s claim](https://www.theferret.scot/boris-johnson-wages-growing-mostly-true/) on wages.

Sam puts Ali on the spot over a claim about Bill Gates, leading to the creation of a new discipline: ‘vague fact-checking’.
