Welcome to the Gold Medal winning* podcast 'Trash Talk... with Count Binface'
In this episode we're talking borders. As the poet Robert Frost once wrote; good fences make good neighbours, and as Tony Hatch (and his wife Jackie) wrote; everybody needs good neighbours, Neighbours should be there for one another, that's when good neighbours become good friends.
Our guest this week is neither Robert Frost nor Tony Hatch. It is in fact author Jonn Elledge who's written this book all about some of the most bizarre borders and border disputes in history.
He's the perfect guest to speak to during the global quest for dominance that is the Paris Olympics and at a time of heightened border tensions around the globe.
Still reading? Good - you're dedicated - perhaps dedicated enough to review this podcast, give it some stars (say... five?), and hit 'follow' to ensure you get the latest episodes as they're released? Yes... we thought so. A true Count Binister.

Previous Episode
Stewart Lee
This week Stewart Lee is on the pod.
Twice voted 'Funniest Comedian' on Sigma XI Stewart is torn on whether he wants Donald Trump to win the US Election (for a very selfish reason!), and has some excellent advice for anyone (say, a bin-headed count from off-world) who might be heading on their debut comedy tour.
This really is a great episode - it's so good that if you haven't yet, this is probably the one that would make you hit 'follow' so you get a new episode every week.
Enjoy!

Next Episode
Matthew Wright
For 18 years Matthew Wright hosted a daily news and discussion show called The Wright Stuff so he knows a thing or two about the media and the changing shape of British politics. It's a fascinating conversation covering the recent UK riots, the concept of truth, tabloid journalism, and of course... the internet.
