Using it alongside the book
The podcast presents the main points of each part, so play it after reading that part of Our Common Bond, not instead of it. Read Part 1, then play episode 2, and so on. Episode 5 matches Part 4, where the 5 values questions come from.
Where to listen
Each episode plays on the Home Affairs podcast page, next to a link to its transcript. You can also follow it in a podcast app.
