Vanguard: Episode 1 (guest starring Sam Campbell)

In Everything is News: Vanguard, Julia and Tom will bring you a series of special interviews with some of the world's leading figures – and unlike the interview strands of other popular political podcasts, these won't just be a way for the hosts to show off using a list of questions prepared in advance by their hard-working staffers. In this episode, Julia and Tom meet Thuggo Atkins, the controversial founder of one of the world's largest private militia organisations. Prepare for an extremely forensic and 100% hard-hitting interview, covering Thuggo's rags-to-riches upbringing, top tips for business success, and alleged crimes against humanity.
