Our podcast that explores little known facts about big known topics.  Each episode, we drink the prune juice of wisdom, dislodging the stool of doubt in order to clear the colon of truth.

Today, it’s time to learn what you don’t know about England.  It’s a pip, pip, what, what, apples and pears, god save the king story about a country that built a mighty worldwide empire, sadly lost that empire and then, when all hope was lost, triumphantly constructed the world’s fourth largest ferris wheel.  If you’re looking for that elusive balance between politeness and violence, England may be for you*.

*Consult your doctor before starting on a course of England.  England may cause bloating, dizziness, stiff-upper lip disorder, auto-apology syndrome, gurning, queueing and reflexive post-crisis kettle-boiling.
