Hey everyone, Ben-Cuba Radio episode number 164.

Now we've got another transatlantic show.

We are recording via the US and I'm recording today with a guest that I have a huge amount of respect for.

Someone that I believe has a lot of integrity.

over to the US you'll end up crushing me one day because

forgetting someone's name is sacrilege so there's going to be people

that know your work there's going to be people that not let's go in at the
