John Simpson, Journalist, Broadcaster and Author

  • サマリー

  • "Travel's in the blood." That's what it says in the Twitter bio of my guest for this, the final episode of series one. Having reported from 140 countries and being a specialist in many foreign regions, you could call that an understatement. 


    As well as holding the post of BBC World Affairs Editor, John Simpson is a journalist, broadcaster and accomplished author. He is one of the most respected foreign correspondents in the world who has a certain knack for being in the right place at the right time.


    When we caught up, John filled me about first going to see Casablanca (both movie and place!), his strong affinity with Ireland, why he won't be returning to Dubai any time soon, and a long-standing bid to reach an uncontacted tribe in the Amazon.


    I hope you enjoy. And thanks for listening!


    This episode was produced and presented by Joe O'Connor. Original music and editing by Paul Loughran. Podcast branding and design by I said I would.


    Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
