#518 - An 18 Yard Sprint, Sovereignty Not Dominion and Big Diolch Energy
Elis James and John RobinsAvailable for over a year
Elis is in the middle of a megaweek. He’s about to do a 100m race for charity that he wishes could be 18 yards, he’s been to 10 Downing Street because Sir Keir is in love with him, and he’s been accosted by a roomful of Welsh people wanting to connect with him. But amongst all this he has also been betrayed. For there was a Paul McCartney-based event that he wasn’t invited to, despite another member of the team making the guest list. But what about John? He’s been doing what he does everyday; checking the price of Bitcoin. This despite not ever having owned any. Plus, there’s an update on the WhatsApp community and another cap in the feather of the world’s greatest invention; e-mail.
