Clive Myrie - Part 1

Desperately Seeking Wisdom

Show Notes

Clive Myrie is one of the most recognisable and versatile broadcasters in the UK. He’s equally at home reporting from a warzone as he is in the studio, grilling contestants on Mastermind or presenting BBC News at Ten.

In part one of this wide-ranging conversation, he talks about the wisdom behind the title of his bestselling book, 'Everything is Everything'. It means things are more likely to be well if you have a more positive attitude. He also talks about his experiences of racism and why it still needs to be confronted as much as ever.

The second part of our conversation will be released on Thursday 29th February.

This episode is produced by Red Bicycle.
