Iain Dale is one of the most prolific radio and podcast personalities in the UK. He presents the Evening Show on LBC Radio (Monday-Thursday 7pm-10pm). He was named Radio Presenter of the Year for 2013 & 2016 at the Arqiva Awards, and was shortlisted for Speech programme of the year at the 2013 Sony Radio Awards. In 2014 he won a Sony Award for ‘Best Interview of the Year.
He's also written untold number of books focusing on his core love of politics. We discussed briefly his new book "Why Can't We all just get along" and in the time it's taken me to release this episode, he's gone and written another about all 55 Prime Ministers.
We discuss his radio career, his politics career, what celebrity means to him and how he felt when he knew he was going to lose the election in 2005.
A great guy, a wonderful guest and hopefully an interesting conversation.
