Kent MP Tom Tugendhat has been praised for his powerful speech during the Common’s debate over the Afghanistan crisis.
It comes as bosses in Ashford are promising to support families fleeing Afghanistan under the government's proposed resettlement scheme.
Also in the podcast, commuters could be hit by the largest rail fare rise in a decade - an eye-watering 4.8% could be on the cards.
And, two of Kent’s top drag queens will be on this year's series of RuPaul's Drag race.
