The Simpsons get political this week, as we discuss Mr Lisa Goes to Washington. Along the way we address the correspondence between Barbara Bush and Marge Simpson, have a thumb through Reading Digest (yes, you read that right) and visit the cesspool on the Potomak.

For the history, we go over the history of the former Yugoslavia right up to the siege of Dubrovnik, a key event in the Croatian war of independence and the break up of the former Yugoslavia. We take a look at the life of Marshall Tito and his run-ins with Joseph Stalin. If you like what we’re doing, please listen and share!
