Meet America’s deranged philosopher-queen | My latest podcast is a discussion of one of the great mysteries of American politics - Ayn Rand, the woman whose ideas drive the American right, and crashed the global economy. How did a little Russian bomb of immorality - a woman who said the only virtue is selfishness - conquer the United States?

Glenn Greenwald – A Conversation, Part II | My latest interview is part two of my conversation with the most essential political commentator in the US: Glenn Greenwald of Salon.com. He is part of a tradition of American writers – from Thomas Paine to Mark Twain to Noam Chomsky – who embody the best values of America, because it always starts from a simple premise. He looks at the victims of the US government – both at home and abroad – and asks – how would I feel if this was done to me? How would I feel if I was being wiretapped? How would I feel if my house and my family were blown up by robot-bombers sent from thousands of miles away? In our conversation, we explore how political tribalism often blinds American liberals to crimes committed by Democrats - and how Glenn learned, from his childhood in Florida, to see beyond this.

Andrew Sullivan – the interview | Andrew Sullivan is one of the most read bloggers in the world, with over a million readers – including, we now know from one of his press conferences, Barack Obama. Lots of people regard Andrew’s story and his identity as inherently contradictory. They ask – how can you be at the same time gay, HIV-positive, Catholic, and conservative? How can you be on the right and yet one of Obama’s strongest defenders in the American debate? As a friend of Andrew's for many years, I've always know there was a strong vein of philosophical, intellectual and emotional consistency to his work. My latest podcast is an intimate conversation about what drives Andrew, ranging across his incredibly eventful life - ending today with him confronting his nemesis: Rick Santorum.

Customer Reviews
At least he can't be accused of making this up.
Johann Hari, in his own words. Much like many of his interviews.
Johann is the best
He is the best columnists in britains premier newspaper.
This podcast reaches the same heights
Tripe
First download and last. A lame, self-indulgent and weakly constructed argument that is poorly presented.
