Hello and welcome to part two of small countries. You're about to enjoy this episode.

But before we kick things off, if you are a subscriber, you will have heard our recent episode in which Tom investigated fitness in the past. Would you like to hear a little 60 second excerpt from that episode?

Of course you would. Here it is. I did a lot of work for the BBC during Euro 2016,

which is coming up to 10 years ago because Wales is qualified. I had to meet a producer of a radio

thing at a place in like Bordeaux and he shared his location

with me and he is now in my contacts for like find my location. I don't know how to turn him off.

He hasn't turned himself off. I haven't seen this guy for 10 years. I constantly know where he is.

Like the international space.

He's in potterprith today.

I've spoken to for a decade.

You keep it on because it feels comforting.

Did you put it on?

Every time I need to use to find my iPhone, I'm like, oh, there he is.

Oh, he's in Swansea today. Like, I don't know the guy. There's going to be a rather somber day in about 50 years when it says come out than semi. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, right. Yeah. It's not really moving. No, no, no. He hasn't moved for a long time, actually. He's been in that graveyard now for five years. Yeah. It's weird. I remember the first time someone sent me a link to where they are using what three words. And I had no idea what this was. So it just said something like, by the way, if you want to find me, I'm at Kipper Egg Trombone or whatever, and I was just like, what the hell is it? Are you not

aware of this? This is a more exact way of giving a map location than drop pin or whatever

or postcode, a better example. How could it be more accurate than dropped pin? No, drop pins is a bad example than a postcode. So for you, you would write, if you go on your phone and type in what three words, it'll tell you where you are. It'll be something like mongoose chicken, taster. Or whatever. Yeah, exactly. Just three random words and then I'll know exactly where you are. How?

Because it's a coordinates. Every part of the world has this random allocated. I've never heard of this. You've never heard of it. You've never heard of what three words? So there'll be three words that refer to where you are right now. What three words? I thought you were doing that as a quiz. It's great. Yeah, don't read them out on air, El, because people will know exactly.
