*BONUS EPISODE ALERT* The legendary, Golden Globe winning actor Brian Cox was in town and we had to get him on the podcast!! If you listen to this podcast, you'll know we obsessively discuss Cox's most recent hit show Succession all the time. Cox plays media mogul Logan Roy on the show & his catch phrase is 'Fuck Off' so he couldn't be bette than that. His career has spanned almost 60 years as an actor. Cox is very political, and has never held back his opinions when it comes to Scottish independence & the Labour Party. This is a fascinating episode where we talk Scotland, Succession, politics, feminism, and his evening with Indira Gandhi.

Our first footballer this season. And we know he is a controversial one. Joey Barton's career has seen him play at multiple clubs. From Manchester City, Newcastle, QPR, Marseille, Burnley & Rangers, and now he is manager of Fleetwood Town. But Barton's career has transcended football because Joey has been involved in one too many controversies. Our interview with Joey ended up being much longer than expected, and it is split into two parts. Part one is football, and part two is feminism. We hope you enjoy it.
