About this episode
An exciting episode where we welcome our first guest, comedian Fin Taylor. We investigate Scott of the Antarctic's real reason for his adventures, computer scientist and fellow genius Alan Turing was born along with Nazi Eva Braun Hitler. Also the famous film boat, the Titanic sets sail and sinks and why did it take so long for people to notice the geographical phenomenon of continental drifts?
Fin Taylor is widely regarded as one of the UK's best stand ups and has appeared on Live at the Apollo and Have I Got News For You. Fin has recently his brilliant stand up comedy special debut, "So My Wife" on his YouTube channel. https://youtu.be/xak4gsTFVXU
