80. BBC’s James Landale on conflict, cancer and why we get it so wrong with death
In this episode I am joined by the BBC’s Diplomatic Correspondent, James Landale.
Drawing on a 30-year career spent on the front line of so many political and geopolitical crises, James offers insight into the role that diplomacy can – must - play in resolving the conflict in the Middle East and across a troubled world.
Reflecting on his experience living with cancer, James offers invaluable advice on coping with chemotherapy. He talks movingly about how he approached a sudden diagnosis of Non Hodgkin’s lymphoma, his recovery and how it altered his view on life … and the flawed way we approach death and grief.
My thanks to James for such an interesting, moving and useful conversation. I hope you enjoy the episode.
