Listen now
Description
Adam talks with journalist and documentary presenter Louis Theroux about the challenges of writing honestly about family relationships with reference to his account of domestic life during lockdown and his mother Anne's book about the disintegration of her marriage to Paul Theroux. We also talk ice baths with Joe Wicks, confrontations with far right 'irony bros', and I do my best to make things uncomfortable when it comes to our podcast rivalry. This episode was recorded face to face in London on 16th March 2022 Thanks to Séamus Murphy-Mitchell for production support.
