This week we are joined by the wonderful Evan Munro-Smith, to talk about a man often referred to as "the worst poet in the history of the English language" - William McGonagall.

This is a comedy/history podcast, the report begins at approximately 07:36 (though as always, we go off on tangents throughout the report).
