Episode 105: Ben Anderson
b'Ben Anderson is a war journalist and documentary filmmaker.\\xa0His latest book, The Interpreters, is available free from\\xa0Vice.\\n\\n"You\'re surrounded by people who are so poor. Maybe their family members have already been killed. And they still can\'t leave. So compared to that, I can\'t really take the idea that I\'ve suffered and that I need stop and go to a spa for a few days. I can\'t take that idea that seriously. Compared to them, it feels like I am leading an almost privileged existence."\\n\\nThanks to TinyLetter and GoDaddy for sponsoring this week\'s episode.\\n\\nShow Notes:\\n@BenJohnAnderson\\nBen Anderson on Vice\\n[12:00] The Slaves of Dubai (Vice \\u2022 Apr 2009)\\n[15:30] "My Holidays in the Axis of Evil" (BBC \\u2022 Feb 2003)\\n[20:43] No Worse Enemy (Oneworld Publications \\u2022 Oct 2012)\\n[21:15] This is What Winning Looks Like (Vice \\u2022 May 2013)\\n[23:20] The Battle for Marjah (HBO \\u2022 Feb 2010)\\n[33:16] Vice on HBO\\n[40:00] James Wood\'s New Yorker archive\\n[42:40] Afghan Interpreters (Vice \\u2022 Jul 2014)\\n[42:40] The Interpreters (Vice \\u2022 Aug 2014)\\n[43:00] King Leopold\'s Ghost (Adam Hochschild \\u2022 1998)\\n[54:30] Longform Podcast #1: Matthieu Aikins\\nLearn more about your ad choices.
