The Obama Effect

About this episode

Was Barack Obama's speech to the Democratic Convention a reminder that great orators don't come along very often? Columnists Robert Crampton and Jane Mulkerrins discuss the speech by the former US president, the role of political spouses, and why Tories are all taking Ozempic to lose weight.


Plus: We continue Ed Vaizey's culture week with a look at whether the golden age of the British TV and film industry has come to an end.
