  • Interview with Benjamin Bikman

    Zoe is a talented interviewer and Benjamin

    Bikman is an amazing teacher and scientist who provides clear explanations of sometimes complex concepts. He has a very balanced perspective and conveys messages with humility - this from someone clearly blessed with a high level of intelligence. This is a fabulous episode and I am keen to work my way through more of Zoe’s podcast!
