Jon Sopel | Strangeland

After eight years reporting from the United States, former BBC North America editor and now host of the global hit podcast, The News Agents,  Jon Sopel returned to Britain in 2022 to find a country that felt strikingly different from the one he had left.

Jon Sopel will discuss his book Strangeland, offering a sharp and often wry look at the political, cultural and social shifts that have reshaped post-Brexit Britain.

Drawing on his years covering American politics — Jon will also explore the current state of the UK, the changing relationship between Britain and the United States, and what President Trump’s recent decisions could mean for both countries and the world in general.

A timely conversation about Britain today and its place in an increasingly turbulent world.
