Jon Ronson is a British journalist, author, and documentary filmmaker known for his investigative and often humorous explorations of unusual and controversial subjects. Born on May 10, 1967, in Cardiff, Wales, he has written several bestselling books, including Them: Adventures with Extremists, The Men Who Stare at Goats, and So You've Been Publicly Shamed. His work often blends gonzo journalism with psychological and cultural analysis, and he has contributed to outlets like The Guardian and This American Life. Ronson is also known for his podcasts, including The Butterfly Effect and Things Fell Apart.

"Stock up on holy water to hedge your bets" The Rough Corner is back! First on the agenda: the end of everything. Dan speaks to Dr Alexander Zawacki, an expert on medieval prophecies, to better understand the so-called 'Prophecy of the Popes' which could mean the end is very much nigh. Plus, pigeons, proteuses and police boxes.
