Special 200th Episode with Kate Adie
To celebrate our 200th episode, we’ve lined up a very special guest in the form of Kate Adie. Kate was Chief News Correspondent for BBC News between 1989 and 2003, during which time she reported from war zones around the world. She retired from the BBC in early 2003 and now works as a freelance presenter on BBC Radio 4. Kate’s 14 year career as a news correspondent saw her cover everything from The Troubles in Northern Ireland, the Lockerbie bombing and the Tiananmen Square protests, to the wars in the Gulf and Yugoslavia, and the Rwandan genocide. She has met with leaders such as Colonel Gaddafi, and survived being shot at point-blank range.
Customer Reviews
Huge Amounts of Value
This podcast, simply put, is brilliant. Warren is an excellent interviewer and conversationalist, and his level of genuine intrigue results in him getting enormous amounts of value out of guests. Massive fan!
Very Thought Provoking
I really like the combination of emotional and business thinking that Warren brings to these podcasts. It seems he can always get his guest to answer both and therefore the insight is fantastic. Looking forward to many more.
Insightful
I listened to the podcast you recorded with my sister Beverley Densham this week while out walking with my dogs and grandbaby.
I thought you asked some great questions that got her story out into the open.
Real wealth is often hard fought and precious and I believe reflected in this episode.
Ps: I think you would LOVE Bev’s Mindfulness Pilates if you attended a regular class Warren. I’m just off to class now - I have been taught by her since 1999!
