In episode 137 of The Just Checking In Podcast we checked in with Rory Cellan-Jones.

Rory is a journalist and worked for the BBC for forty years.

Rory is the BBC’s former Technology Correspondent and the author of two books; ‘Dot.Bomb: The Rise and Fall of Dot Com Britain’ and his most recent book ‘Always On: Hope And Fear in the Smartphone Era’.

In this episode we discuss the link between social media use and mental health, fighting his way up the greasy BBC pole, his emotional relationship with the BBC, social class and his diagnosis of Parkinson’s and how its changed his life.

As always, #itsokaytovent
