What makes you a heretic? Journalist Andrew Gold believes that, in an age of group-think and tribes, we need heretics - those who use unconventional wisdom to speak out against their own groups, from cancelled comedians and radical feminists to cult defectors and vigilantes hunting deviants. Learn from my guests how to rebel, think differently and resist social contagion. From Triggernometry's Konstantin Kisin and the world's most cancelled man Graham Linehan to Robbie Williams and atheist Richard Dawkins. These are the people living with the weight of their own community's disappointment on their shoulders.
