I’m Matt Stadlen and for 20 years I’ve been talking to and interviewing public figures from around the world. In this series I’ll be interviewing famous names from every walk of life and with a broad range of views, politics and perspectives. Every guest will get 20 questions, and the plan is for you to have a better sense of each of them by the end of their interview.

Even when I think I dislike someone or thoroughly disagree with their politics (Rees-Mogg, John Redwood) Matt Stadlen always conducts a civil interview that makes you want to listen, and you always come away better informed. Just recently very much enjoyed Otto Scott and Jeremy Hunt. Really good stuff. Loved the run of interviews with cricketers and commentators. A joy.
Great interview with Martin O’Neill.
