Joe and Tom meet a cheesemonger, eat six cheeses and potentially get gout. Learn all about the Great Cheese War of 1766, Sardinian maggots and how many goats is a lot of goats.

Ned Palmer is a brilliant guest, and his book is available now. It's called A Cheesemonger's History of the British Isles. If you read books, and you like cheese, check it out.
