About Talking Transatlantic
From the publisher's feed
Telina is in America.
Richard's British.
The pair became best buddies at university in Edinburgh in Scotland where they studied journalism.
Together with special, well at the very least quite interesting, guests they meet between the continents to chat about what is happening in the world right now, or at least quite recently.
