  • Matt Rendell: ITV Tour de France commentator, author, man on mission
    May 17 2024

    ITV Tour de France commentator and general polymath Matt Rendell joins me to discuss some things that never make it into our live talk shows. Why is ITV like the social services? Did Matt really sell his house to finance one of his books (and, if so, why?) Was/is Marco Pantani Italy's Princess Diana? How come nobody knows the actual route of this year's Tour de France? Why is Matt currently investigating a non-sporting scandal from the 1980s? And much more!

  • 60 Years of the Rolling Stones, with Lesley-Ann Jones
    Apr 18 2023

    Lesley-Ann Jones discusses The Stone Age, her biography of the self-styled greatest rock'n'roll band in the world.

    Lesley-Ann Jones interviewed hundreds of insiders and eye witnesses to create the biography. As a friend of Bill Wyman in the 80s, she was curious to investigate further the emotional chaos the band has left in its wake - as well as to detail how a group of white suburban kids brought the music of black America to British audiences.

    This is an edited version of a live launch event at the Social, Little Portland Street, London W1, in July 2022. Lesley-Ann Jones is in conversation with Radio Days Book Club host Duncan Steer.
