Sir John Tusa, one of the founding members of Newsnight and former head of the BBC World Service and the Barbican Centre, has recently celebrated his 90th birthday. 

So, naturally, he’s launched a new podcast, where he interviews other people over the age of 90 about their fascinating lives and careers. It’s a great idea and Tusa is a great interviewer, managing to get insight and wisdom from his guests.

The podcast begins with Tusa’s godson Rory Stewart interviewing him about his life so far, and what he hopes the podcast will achieve.
