  • Episode 27: Dick Van Dyke on I’m a Celebrity…
    Nov 30 2024

    Laugh along with us on this podcast episode as we discuss Scotland’s beloved gritter tracker, and about the creative, often hilarious names given to the country’s snowplows. From “Grit Expectations” to “Spready Mercury,” we uncover why this icy tradition has people cracking up every winter.
