In a new podcast series, James Foley and Ewan Kerr will interview key players and experts in Scotland's Covid saga. Cutting through mythology and posturing, they will ask the big questions about democracy, governance, class and power so often obscured in recent years.

In this first episode, James and Ewan speak to Neil Findlay, former Labour MP and arch critic of the Scottish Government's handling of the Covid pandemic. They discuss the insults levelled at Findlay in uncovered government Whatsapp chats, what light the Covid inquiry casts on Sturgeonism in general, and the scandal of Covid era deaths in Scottish care homes.
