How to listen to podcasts: everything you need to know

It is a year since Britain voted to leave the European Union. A year in which we have learned relatively little about what is likely to happen next. The “Brexit election” Theresa May rashly called after triggering article 50, which started the 24-month period in which the UK needs to strike a deal, delivered less certainty about what it might contain. But now exit talks have begun and details are slowly emerging.

So where might we end up? In our monthly podcast series We Need to Talk About … we tackle the big issues shaping the world, as determined by Guardian members. Each episode features queries and thoughts from our supporters, and the expertise of a special panel of Guardian journalists. You ask the questions – we try to supply the answers.

In We Need to Talk About … Brexit, deputy membership editor Vicky Frost discusses the concerns of Guardian supporters with contributors that hold a variety of viewpoints: the Guardian’s Brexit correspondent Lisa O’Carroll, columnist Zoe Williams, Brexit policy editor, Dan Roberts, and economics editor Larry Elliott.

Making this podcast series, we’ve been inspired from the start by the curiosity, breadth of views, and depth of knowledge that members hold, and we are keen to showcase more of these.
