Darren Maule loves a good factoid on the internet. This year, a Namibian official named Adolf Hitler Uunona was elected during the country's local elections - that was a discovery that threw Darren off his chair. But, this was not before he discovered another name that was related to the US elections that he was following very closely.

As mentioned, there's always a little humour to Darren's facts. Listen to the podcast below for a good laugh.
