Joanne McNally Investigates: Did Furbys Spy on Us? (BBC Sounds) 

After the first season asking Who Replaced Avril Lavigne?, comedian Joanne McNally returns with another pressing concern: Did Furbys Spy on Us? It relates to a claim that Furbys were capable of spying, and asks why they were banned by American Security Services. It’s as suitably silly as the first season as she’s thrust into the world of international espionage, politics…. and Furbys.
