Eejits of the World
Learning from Other’s Mistakes
What is an Eejit? Imagine Florida Man – but everywhere. And sometimes a woman. Every Wednesday Andrew Maxwell and Glenn Wool scour the news, the internet, and sometimes by looking in the mirror to bring you the latest from the world of Eejits. Sometimes in Hollywood, sometimes in Sport, sometimes in Science, sometimes in everyday life. And always in Russia.
