What does a mayor actually do apart from wear chains and cut ribbons? Well, when we were in Manchester for the tour, we met up with Andy Burnham, the mayor of Greater Manchester, and it turns out he doesn't actually do either of those things much. In this episode, we discuss how to make changes in a city, why it costs more to get the train to Manchester from London than to fly, and what Joe would do as the mayor of Heathfield. There is also a lot of music chat, and Joe offends Andy by calling one of Manchesters most iconic bands 'the Joy Division'.
