Borat, Racism & Politically Correct Comedy


Listen Later

Borat 2 has been the talk of the town, but what's the cost of laughs in Sacha Baren Cohen's latest film? We look at what Kazakhs think, crude laughs and being smart in comedy.

 The Gov revealed it hasn't spent a dollar of its $100m scheme to help manufacture from recycled goods. So instead of calling em out (again) - we chat about constructive ways we can all be smart about recycling, waste management and making the environment better.
