Episode description

The founder and former boss of BrewDog, James Watt has said that Britain is one of the “least work-oriented countries in the world” and that the country’s obsession with a work-life balance is one invented by those unhappy with their own careers. James O'Brien asks his listeners whether this is true of their employees, and if so, why?

With a new study finding the ‘Cost of dying’ in the UK has hit record levels, with the average funeral cost at £9,797, James asks his listeners to share their opinions on a rather sensitive topic - haggling with a funeral director. Plus It's Prime Minister Questions where LBC Political Editor Natasha Clark helps James digest all the happenings.
