Vic’s first choice this week is:

Conversations Against Living Miserably – episodes 35 & 36, the Self Isolation Special which see different guests talking about how they are coping with self-isolation.

My first choice is:

For the Many with our favourites Iain Dale and ex-home secretary Jacqui Smith.

Vic’s second choice is:

Radiolab from WNYC, in particular, The Other Latif
a 6 part series which tells the story of Guantanamo Bay prisoner being cleared for transfer home in 2016, and still languishing in the prison to this day.

My second Choice is:

Private Passions
With guest novelist Isabelle Alende, author of 20 novels, including “The House of the Spirits”. She’s been translated all over the world and has sold some seventy-four million books. She is not just a wonderful author, she is also a wonderful woman.

And Vic’s last choice is another favourite

Sam Harris' Making Sense, this time in conversation with Paul Bloom, in an episode released on the 17th of March. In this episode Sam and Paul discuss the psychological impact of the Coronavirus pandemic, as well as what the future might hold.

And finally, we have a special treat for you at the very end of our podcast: its Isabel Allende’s final choice of song on the Private Passions podcast. WHich also happens to be Latin America’s most recorded song ever.

It's called Thanks To Life (Gracias a la Vida).
