Hello, and welcome to another episode of No Such Thing as a Fish,
a weekly podcast coming to you from the QI offices in Covent Garden.
My name is Dan Treiber, I'm sitting here with Andy Murray, James Harkin, and Anna Chajinsky,
and once again we have gathered around the microphones with our four favorite facts from the last seven days,
and in no particular order, here we go.
Starting with fact number one, and that's my fact.
My fact this week is that Guantanamo Bay has a gift shop.
Pretty inappropriate.
Yeah, do we know if the prisoners can buy gifts?
Is it like they get let out once a week?
They sell files and they sell wire cutters and things like that.
Now I've got a list of some of the things they do sell.
Well, so Fidel Castro's standing on a boom box with text reading Rockin' in Fidel's backyard.
You can get golf balls, you can get candles, you can get a plush banana rat,
which is a type of rat that they have on Guantanamo Bay.
So there's banana rats everywhere on Guantanamo Bay, otherwise known as Hootier, you would normally call them Hootier,
but they call them banana rats, but you know why they're called banana rats?
No.
They shape like a banana.
They eat bananas.
