The BBC World Service interview I did about Yuri Gagarin is now available for a couple of days as a BBC podcast. You can hear it using the link below:

Scroll forward to 0:47:24 which is where the segment I was in begins.

Not sure how many people heard this. BBC World Service has a weekly listenership of 163 million people, more than any other media outlet anywhere globally.
