Summary

This month's $5 Britainology involves Milo forcing Nate to watch an incredibly awkward episode of I'm Alan Partridge and then helping him talk him off the ledge. We also explore how Partridge is not all that exaggerated a version of a British radio DJ, replete with some Richard Madeley and Jeremy Vine all-time classics.

in that manner of like, no one can really tell you what he initially got famous for. Like,

0:29.5

he's just a guy who's on TV. Like, it's that kind of. And he has a wife who's, I guess he's probably
