*BONUS EPISODE ALERT* The legendary, Golden Globe winning actor Brian Cox was in town and we had to get him on the podcast!! If you listen to this podcast, you'll know we obsessively discuss Cox's most recent hit show Succession all the time. Cox plays media mogul Logan Roy on the show & his catch phrase is 'Fuck Off' so he couldn't be bette than that. His career has spanned almost 60 years as an actor. Cox is very political, and has never held back his opinions when it comes to Scottish independence & the Labour Party. This is a fascinating episode where we talk Scotland, Succession, politics, feminism, and his evening with Indira Gandhi.
