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.
