I love listening to podcasts on the way to work, here’s a few I’d recommend for this week: My Ridley colleague, John Dickson, has just launched his own podcast Undeceptions where “Every week on Undeceptions we’ll explore some aspect of life, faith, history, culture, or ethics that is either much misunderstood or mostly forgotten. With the help of people who know what they’re talking about, we’ll be trying to ‘undeceive ourselves’ and let the truth ‘out’.” In the first episode John Dickson... Read more
