Thinking Class | John Gillam

Thinking Class is a long-form interview podcast about the cultural, historical, and civilisational forces shaping England, Britain, and the wider Western world.

Hosted by John Gillam, the show features serious conversations with historians, philosophers, economists, theologians, and public intellectuals, including David Starkey, Lord Jonathan Sumption, Lord Nigel Biggar, Robert Tombs, Peter Hitchens, Lionel Shriver, Roy Baumeister, Kathleen Stock, Carl Trueman, and many others.

Each episode asks the questions that most commentary avoids: not what is happening, but why — and what the long history of England, Britain and the West tells us about the moment we are in and what recovery might require.

Expect intellectual rigour over hot takes. Depth over headlines. And serious guests treated as adults capable of a difficult argument.

New episodes every week.
