Our latest guest on Soundtracking is Richard Gadd, creator of the phenomenon that is Baby Reindeer, who joins us to discuss his new project Half Man, which you can watch now on the BBC iPlayer and HBO Max. Starring Richard and Jamie Bell as non-blood-related brothers, it tells the story of a reunion at a wedding that leads to all manner of chaos, and deals with issues relating to toxic masculinity, family and identity.
