Unedited's Pilot Season

Gary Younge's Facts That Matter

Listen on

Episode notes

Gary Younge's lyrical writing tackles issues such as urban housing inequality, food delivery "black sites," and a new wave of labour unions among sex workers on both sides of the Atlantic. Each episode is built on hard facts, likeable characters, and empathetic on-the-ground reporting.


In the 'Facts' pilot, he explains why there are more jobs in Indian restaurants in the UK than in shipbuilding, steel, and coal combined. How did we get here? He hears from the people at the heart of both sectors. Ellie Mae O'Hagan, who oversees the Center for Labour and Social Studies, joins him. Gary also gets a new point of view on how well strikes and other labour actions in the UK work.


Gary Younge hosts and writes this limited series of eight episodes per season.
