Trump’s VP is the first to have a beard in over 100 years - why?
As Trump last night picked right wing firebrand Senator JD Vance as his running mate, it was quickly noted that Vance was the first person on a presidential ticket to have a beard since 1892. So, why do so few politicians wear beards, and is there a stigma attached?
Joining Seán to discuss is Keith Flett, Founder & Organiser of the Bearded Liberation Front.
