In this episode of Talking Travel, we go to Iceland. The north Atlantic island nation has been ravaged by the recent global economic troubles, and it’s got a volcano, pictured, which is currently threatening one of the country’s most well-known glaciers. But we focus in on the Parliament’s recent decision to ban striptease clubs. Take a listen, and we’ll take you there with the help of Lonely Planet’s Robert Reid and Tom Hall.
