Strangeland: How Britain Stopped Making Sense

 – Global Stage

After eight years of political reporting in the US, journalist and podcaster Jon Sopel moved back to the UK, only to find he’d returned to a very different country than the one he’d left almost a decade before.

In Strangeland, Sopel takes a personal look at what it means to be British in a post-Brexit world. In this event he discusses how disconcerted he felt with the country he’d come home to, whether the UK has dramatically changed or whether it’s just him, and how he drew a new portrait of his homeland in chaos.

Sopel is a host of hit podcast The News Agents. He previously worked as the BBC’s North America Editor.
