0:13.9 | 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 |
