Dead Man Suing and a Wooden Leg Called Cuthbert with Oli Riordan

MJ talks to comedian Brian Cheatle about the frankly cursed life of Adolf Sax, inventor of the saxophone (and the lesser-known Saxocanon), and shares the tale of Sri Lanka's secret handball team. Plus the case for bringing back dueling, the Anti-MJ League, some good old-fashioned tan bashing and nobody being quite sure what exactly handball is.
