Please consider the format should you book Zoe Williams again. I enjoy the pod, but the constant interruptions and shrieky rudeness of her input made this episode rather more challenging to listen to than normal. Her seeming desire to condescend and stifle meaningful conversation perhaps indictes why she is principally a columnist.
