51 分钟Hello, and welcome to an extra special edition of No Such Thing as a Fish,
this time we are celebrating the release of our new book, the book of the year 2019, The World's Weirdest News.
My name is Dan Schreiber, I am sitting here with Andrew Hunter Murray, and James Harkin,
and once again we have gathered round the table with our four favorite facts from our new book,
which is out now, and in no particular order, here we go, starting with you, James.
Okay, my fact from the book of the year 2019, The World's Weirdest News, is that Greta Thunberg's middle name is Tintin.
Amazing.
Isn't that great?
Now, you can argue this isn't technically true, because...
I'm glad we opened on this one.
Immediate climb down.
Well, she has five names in total, and Tintin is the second one,
I call it middle name, so she is called Greta, Tintin, Eleonora, Ernman, Thunberg.
Middle name Tintin.
That's an incredibly professional way of a view to caveat that fact,
James, because any other person would have just said her middle name is Tintin,
that's fine, but you said, well, technically it's one outside her middle name, but it's not a first or a surname.
We kept editing that sentence out of the actual book, though, in the end.
I reckon that any name which is not your first name or your surname is technically a middle name.
Definitely.
