Who is J D Vance? A podcast special with Professor Shane O'Mara

J D Vance has shot to prominence following his selection by Donald Trump to be, potentially, the next Vice President of the US. In this podcast special, we focus on Vance's 2016 best-selling memoir, Hillbilly Elegy, to try and explain and understand the man who clearly wants, one day, to be the leader of the free world. We are joined by Professor Shane O'Mara of Trinity College Dublin to discuss all things JDV. And there really is a lot to discuss! Shane is also a best-selling author (of much better books than JDV's memoir) and writes his own Substack called BrainPizza. Do check out any of his works, especially his most recent book, 'Talking Heads: The New Science of How Conversation Shapes Our Worlds'. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
