#499 A Night in a Haunted House with Robbie Williams - Richard, it turns out, loves his AirTag more than his dog, but he's back in London and eating tofu. His guest is journalist and lord of the podcasts, Jon Ronson. They talk about the worst decision made by an executive since turning down The Beatles; the brilliant series Things Fell Apart; detailing the unlikely genesis of anti-abortion becoming a big deal for US Christians and a moving story of other evangelicals learning to understand AIDS and homosexuality; a night amongst crack dealers with some self-declared superheroes; whether Jon will be moving back into writing books; his tour to celebrate the anniversary of the Psychopath Test (and why you can't teach a psychopath empathy); and how Jon learned to love Louis Theroux.
