Well well well, look at all this! It’s another episode of I Miss You Man!
This podcast has gone long enough without something important – a mascot! So, before we decide on who’ll represent the I Miss You Men, here’s a deep dive into mascots. How they started, why they exist and some good and some bad examples. Also some laffs and some gaffs like always.
And our Get Amongst It suggestion this week… Mrs Harris Goes to Paris
