Chris and Jane waffle with Dr Ben Marsh of internet singing sensations the Marsh Family. Ben talks about his family's rise to fame performing parody versions of popular songs during the lockdown, the challenges of navigating copyright law and his thoughts on freedom of expression. He also tells us about his academic work at the University of Kent, gives a shout out to his copyright heroes and tells us about his favourite cake.
