Amol tells Gyles about his family background - his parents moved to the UK from India when he was three years old. He talks about his father's insatiable love of English literature, his mother's brilliant cooking, and his own love of cricket. He talks about decline and opportunity, and why he has chosen to leave Radio 4. And finally, Amol and Gyles discuss bereavement, grief and Hamlet.</p><p><br></p><p>Amol Rajan's podcast Radical is available to download <a href=\"https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/radical-with-amol-rajan/id1708808280\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">here</a>.</p><p><br></p><p>Don't forget to subscribe to our YouTube <a href=\"https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCoZLtkZi4v5b2WzerOf0ACA\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">here</a>.
