Why people recommend it

Recommend starting with Bertrand Russell in the inaugural lectures - he's fantastic to listen to, even now.

More from the comments

The 2019 Reith lectures may have something to do with it - Sumption raised quite a lot of points I hadn't thought of before... Worth a listen (also on any podcast app)

Reith Lectures. Often thought provoking, sometimes a bit too "heavy".
