Farewell to a legend: Tears, cheers and kirs

Anoosh Chakelian and Ailbhe Rea host a special episode to say goodbye to Stephen Bush. 

Kir royales are sunk and Stephen takes an audio trip down memory lane, featuring a rendition of “American Pie”, this time about Scottish Labour, as well as his teenage Harry Potter fanfiction and his honest opinion on “Devil with the Devil”. 

Then in You Ask Us, former hosts make a special appearance to ask Stephen some questions.
