Radio Host Iain Dale on Radio, Politics & Polarization

"Why Can't We All Just Get Along?" is a question that we've probably all asked at some point in recent times. And it's one that my guest on this episode, Iain Dale, seeks to answer in his brand new book which has that as its title.

Iain is an award-winning radio presenter on the UK station LBC (www.lbc.co.uk). He's had a fascinating career, as a political candidate, a publisher and a host of other things. In our discussion, we talk about Iain's experiences on radio and what that's taught him about people and how they think. He's got some wonderful stories, which he tells with warmth and in an engagingly self-deprecating style. In his book, which is part autobiographical, part explorative, Iain covers a number of topics relating to Human Risk, and we talk about many of them on the show.

Listener warning: one of the topics we talk about, is the words that you're not allowed to say on UK radio. But you can say them on a podcast. So we do. If you're easily offended, then be warned.

Iain's book is out now published by Harper Collins and is available through all good independent bookshops. You can also order signed copies directly from him at https://bit.ly/3iV5FV6
