I love chatting with Ben because he's a great interviewer, and usually has some really interesting questions that go beyond the "explain what's happening for a lay audience" type questions I often get asked as an expert. You can have a listen to me prattling away for a bit (and trying to avoid coughing) on the topic of where Twitter is at 3h40 min in, for a limited time only! BBC Radio Leicester (2023).
