Some excellent stuff on the BBC.
The Coming Storm, everything you ever wanted to know about QAnon. Well researched, incisive, scary, very scary, don't miss it.
Written and presented by Gabriel Gatehouse. |

I like Matthew Syed, an ex table tennis champion, a champion of Mindset; the research of Carol Dwek which if you apply the ideas thoughtfully (needs to be applied with some consideration, it's not magic, nor an obsession) will change your life, your children's lives or/and your pupils' / students' lives; oops heading off on a wee connected distraction. Anyway, Matthew is a journalist and this series introduces and explores the history of some life changing and history changing ideas, well worth listening.

I've written about Jon Ronson's podcasts in the past. This is an old one, it's actually an abridged audio version of his book, "So you've been publically shamed." Don't miss it. This book and three of his others are currently bundled as a bargain in some bookshops, if you prefer to read rather than listen.

Sub-titled, "How shame has evolved in the digital age" the book explores the democracy and disasters of digital shaming.
And another plug for "Things Fell Apart" which includes some very moving episodes. It really is essential listening.
