Peter Jones, Jamie Laing and Aleks Krotoski talk to Decca Aitkenhead

Heard at Hay Festival

 – Discovery Stage

Three brilliant speakers, all with something completely different to say about how we see ourselves – past, present and future. Historian Peter Jones reveals how self-help worked in the Middle Ages. Podcaster and entrepreneur Jamie Laing shares how he’s trying to work out how to be the kind of man he’s proud of instead of the kind society expects him to be. And journalist Aleks Krotoski talks about her investigation into the moguls and tech bros who are trying to defy death so they can live forever. Hosted by Decca Aitkenhead, chief interviewer for the Sunday Times.
