E31: Count Binface: What Is This?

Welcome to Long Distance, Bit Weird, a podcast from international comedy couple Sooz Kempner and Michael Balazo. One of them lives in the UK, the other in Canada.

This week, in the run-up to an exciting British by-election, Sooz tells Michael about the satirical political figure known as Count Binface, the latest in a long line of British novelty candidates like Lord Buckethead and Screaming Lord Sutch. If you thought politicians were clowns before... well, just listen!!!

ALSO: a new edition of the hit segment "Actual Customer Letters to Wetherspoon News." PLUS: Sooz describes an Instagram post!
