Summary

It’s our first ever sequel episode and this week we’re looking at one of our favourite subjects: Blunders. We’ll be discussing a man often regarded as one of the worst US Presidents ever, Andrew Johnson (not the striker or Elis’ old flatmate), the Swiss Army and how they accidentally invaded another country and how the Holy Roman Emperor Joseph II got soundly beaten on the battlefield.This week we found out that Tom literally once hit the headlines and that headline was ‘IDIOT’. We also heard our first Correspondence sting and there was plenty of examples of people getting stuck in coats.
