West speaks about the moments that shaped and inspired his voice from growing up in a household of actors with famous parents and wanting to be accepted into the 'family business' to his lifelong socialism. How I Found My Voice is a new Intelligence Squared podcast that explores how some of the world's greatest artists and thinkers became such compelling – and unique – communicators.
