On today's show I talk to journalist and author Jon Ronson. Originally from Cardiff, Wales, Jon moved to London for university, and it was in England that his writing career began. He's created a number of documentaries for BBC radio, TV, and for similar places like Channel 4, and he's written a number of international bestsellers - some of which have been turned into films - including The Men Who Stare at Goats, The Psychopath Test, Them: Adventures with Extremists, and his latest, which is out this week, So You've Been Publicly Shamed. (They're all wonderful!)
