Have John Olivor and Andy Zaltzman gotten lazy?

Herbert Gilbert
   The Bugle podcast was a rare English podcast I could tolerate and enjoyed the humor and information of a political British program on culture and politics. Andy Zaltzman and John Olivor made many Bugle editing and broadcasts through the years with a sharp incisive comedy with a solid grasp of world events. this show kicked ass and you could learn a lot of the English perspective and views of American society from the British perspective. It appears though that this dynamic duo has gotten lazy and they have pretty much cut back their award winning broadcasts dramatically. in the past six months they have done perhaps two programs and last time I checked in they did a repeat of the best of Bugle. Andy Z, the one who looks like the third stooge Larry, claimed to be under the weather as they briefly introduced their best of program as he coughed and hacked his way for a few minutes of BS saying he was too sick to do a new show. I don't understand how some of these political satirists can just take so much time off and if you want your podcast audience to grow taking six months breaks are pretty much a guarantee of failure. These fools need to get back behind the mic and produce content on a weekly basis.
