It's a special Anglo-Irish-Welsh edition of the podcast this week as presenter Alex Horne, who hails from West Sussex, is joined by stand-up Sean Hughes (who was born in London, but spent most of his youth in Firhouse, Dublin) and comedian Katy Wix, who you'll recognise from the sitcom Not Going Out but who grew up in Cardiff. Thankfully the team are joined by a Joaquin Phoenix lookalike rather than the real Joaquin Phoenix otherwise it would have been an Anglo-Irish-Welsh-North American themed show, which would have been a bit of a stretch.

Tim Key and Ardal O’Hanlon join Alex Horne in our weekly light-hearted exploration of the week’s events - if you imagine that the week’s events are a supermarket aisle - maybe dairy - then we’d be sort of trotting down that aisle, picking up yoghurts, scooting along on the back of the trolley and then occasionally having a proper discussion about which milk to buy - because there is always time for actual opinions on this podcast.
