Hello and welcome to another episode of No Such Thing as a Fish, a weekly podcast this week

0:23.2

coming to you live from Up the Creek in Greenwich London. My name is Dan Schreiber. I'm sitting

0:32.7

here with Anna Toshinsky, Andrew Huntson Murray and James Harkin and once again we have gathered

0:37.2

around the microphones but not with our four favorite facts from the last seven days but with some of

0:41.7

our favorite facts from the last 12 months. This is No Such Thing as the news meets the book of the year
