What The F Is Going On? with Mark Steel

In this special extended interview, Mark talks to LBC presenter James O'Brien about everything from Brexit to Jeremy Corbyn – and from Katie Hopkins to our very own talk-show host Mike Concrete. 

James and Mark discuss how to change people's minds, how to deal with trolls on social media, and (in a soon-to-be-pitched TV game show called Challenge Suella) how to fit a billion people into Britain.
