Summary

On the latest Planet Porky podcast Mike Parry and Lesley-Ann Jones discuss: Super Saturday, Ghislaine Maxwell and her estranged family, media empires, Niki Lauda, David Ginola's charm, Kid Jensen, a Beatle turning 80, throwing away your old tech, replacing your TV, Sarah Ferguson's behaviour and Kanye West running for president. They also take a trip back to Fleet Street to remember their dealings with that formidable husband and wife duo - Nick Lloyd and Eve Pollard. Spoiler alert - it gets a bit tasty!
