Hi, it's producer Chris from the Bugle here. Did you know that I have a new series of my podcast,

Richie Firth Travel Hacker, out now. It's the show where Richie Firth and I talk about how to make

travel better in our very special way. In this series, we discuss lime bikes, Tesla's, the London

Overground and a whole bunch of other random stuff that possibly involves wheels or tracks or engines of some variety.

God, what a hot sell this is. I mean, you must be so excited. Listen now.

Nothing brings us together like great TV

And a TV licence covers you to watch all TV channels plus BBC Eye Player

so you can bond over your favourite soaps and dramas.
