The Thistle & Dram

Welcome to The Thistle & Dram — the podcast where Scotland’s news, culture, and conversation come together over a dram.

I’m your host, Iain, and each week we’ll sit down to talk about what’s happening in Scotland — from politics and current events to books, films, music, and the ideas shaping the country today.

Sometimes it’ll just be me, sometimes we’ll have guests — but the goal is always the same: thoughtful conversation in a relaxed setting.

So pour yourself a drink, get comfortable, and join the conversation.

This is The Thistle & Dram.
