Where Politics Meets History – Details, episodes & analysis

Iain is joined by former Labour MP Caroline Flint for this one. They discuss whether the PM is Mr Gloomster, banning smoking outdoors, the Tory leadership contest, fuel poverty, Iain's Thatcher biography, carbonara sauce in a can - and we get a special appearance from Her Ladyship!

Iain returns to the podcast and co-hosts with LBC's political editor Natasha Clark. They discuss how Jacqui's getting on in her new job, Natasha's favourite LBC presenters, who's doing well in the Tory leadership contest, conspiracy theories and Mike Lynch, Gen Z lingo and loads more.

Shelagh Fogarty joins Iain for the first PJ-era episode of 'For the Many'. They discuss all the fall-out from Labour's first week in power, whether Joe Biden should drop out of the US Presidential race, the NATO Summit in Washington... and whether it's coming home this week.

The next episode will feature former Labour MP Thangam Debonnaire as Iain's guest co-host.
