Before I leave you, some exciting news. Starting this week and going into next we have some exciting new shows coming your way.

First off, I’ll be bringing you the first episode of #askGWR, where we lift the lid on what goes on behind the scenes here at Guinness World Records.

Secondly, our very own Mike Janela from the New York Office will be bringing you a sports round up and, starting next week, the first of the brand new ‘Mike Meets’ series.

Stay tuned!
