Washington to Westminster: A Political Comedy Podcast

Fenix News Network

Washington to Westminster is the natural-ish culmination of hundreds of years of British-American foreign relations. British comedian Matt Johnston from The Interesting Times and American comedian Andrea Bridges-Smith from The Fenix News Network join forces to ask each other, what the bloody hell is going on over on your side of the pond? If there"s one thing both our proud nations have in common, it"s that our politicians are nuts!
