In this podcast, James talks to people for you, the public. These ‘people’ will be ‘people’ he is a fan of anyway, so you are really very welcome, people. Each episode is usually a combination of questions, and follow-up questions (just to keep it fresh). It’s fairly silly, and much more about having a chat with some daft questions for a while, rather than working out why acts do what they do, or how they do it. Guests (so far) have included the likes of James Acaster, B.J. Novak, Josie Long ...

If you've ever yelled at someone on social media about, say, cancel culture or mask-wearing, then you are a soldier in the culture wars - those everyday battles for dominance between conflicting values. The acclaimed writer and podcaster Jon Ronson has seen friends swallowed up in them to the extent that it's ruined their lives. Jon was curious to learn how things fell apart, and so he went back into the history of the culture wars to find some of the origin stories: the pebbles thrown in th ...
