BBC Sounds, music

radio podcasts. Welcome
0:05
to Illuminated from BBC
0:07
Radio 4. The home
0:09
for creative one-off documentaries
0:11
that shed light on
0:13
hidden worlds. All human
0:16
life is here, just
0:18
waiting to be discovered.
0:26
Since the Prime Minister wrote the ball, why
0:28
on earth does he think that his new
0:30
defence is going to work for him? How
0:33
did Egyptians build the pyramids? Did
0:35
this start at the top and
0:37
work down or start at the
0:39
bottom and work up? Why would
0:41
you remember a pizza express birthday
0:43
and being at home? But what
0:45
first have they attracted you to
0:48
the millionaire Paul Daniel? Have you
0:50
said thank you once? In this
0:52
entire meeting, you said thank you.
0:54
Will the Prime Minister show that
0:56
he and his government can be
0:58
more than student politicians? That's
1:00
it, isn't it? Didn't
1:03
you wonder as a
1:05
child whether you were
1:07
watching the clouds move
1:09
or the earth rotate?
1:11
Or wonder why your
1:14
granny's house always smelled
1:16
of chickery and boiled
1:19
eggs? What did I
1:22
want to know? Why doesn't
1:24
it hurt when I get
1:26
my hair cut? Are there
1:29
aliens? Could I be
1:32
adopted? Does my dad
1:34
give names to each
1:36
of the cows on
1:38
his farm? And why
1:40
did our old sheepdog
1:43
Jack just disappear
1:45
one day? When
1:47
did we stop
1:49
asking so many
1:51
questions? Did we
1:53
stop asking so
1:56
many questions? Did
1:58
you know that our... for
2:00
question asking peak at
2:02
the age of five
2:04
then steadily diminish that
2:06
kids ask an average
2:08
of 40,000 questions between
2:10
the ages of two
2:12
and five while adults
2:14
ask fewer than ten
2:16
questions a day. How
2:18
many questions have you
2:21
asked today? Four candles.
2:23
Lots, you say? Four
2:25
candles. But how many
2:27
were rhetorical, like? Seriously,
2:29
what is the point?
2:31
Or this kind of
2:33
boomer asking, where the
2:35
question is an excuse
2:37
to turn the conversation
2:39
back to ourselves. Were
2:41
some of them leading
2:43
questions like, why do
2:45
you stack the dishwasher
2:47
that way? Or passive
2:49
aggressive ones, like, when
2:51
is it your turn
2:53
to do the food
2:55
shopping? Or do you
2:57
fill your day with
2:59
mostly functional questions like,
3:01
Alexa? What's the weather
3:04
today? In what city
3:06
would you like to
3:08
know the weather? Were
3:10
any of your questions,
3:12
how can I put
3:14
this, meaningful? Could we
3:16
spend the next few
3:18
minutes together, unpicking why
3:20
we ask fewer questions
3:22
than we ought to?
3:25
Shall we explore the differences
3:27
between questions that are self-serving
3:30
and those that build bridges
3:32
and understanding? And if we
3:34
do that, might we unearth
3:37
some potent but practical questions
3:39
that we could ask to
3:41
fix a relationship, reveal a
3:44
secret, break a cycle or
3:46
even change a mind? Could
3:49
we consider for a moment?
3:51
where power lies when questions
3:53
are asked, and how that
3:56
changes depending on who is
3:58
asking the question. But
4:02
could we also fill this
4:04
documentary entirely with questions? What
4:06
immortal hand or eye could
4:08
frame my fearful symmetry? In
4:11
what distant deeps or skies
4:13
burnt the fire of thine
4:15
eyes? On what wings dare
4:17
he aspire? What the hand
4:19
dare seize the fire? But
4:22
could we also fill this
4:24
documentary entirely with questions? Well,
4:26
why not? Or not to
4:28
be? There have been novels,
4:30
short stories, children's books, songs,
4:33
commencement speeches, even restaurant reviews,
4:35
written entirely in questions. So
4:37
why not half an hour
4:39
of radio? To be or
4:41
not to be. I suppose
4:44
you're going to tell me
4:46
you've played him. Can I
4:48
keep you listening to half
4:50
an hour of questions? Will
4:52
the parents among you be
4:55
waiting for me to slip
4:57
up? or dispute the validity
4:59
of my so-called tag questions,
5:01
that would be mean, wouldn't
5:03
it? To be or not
5:06
to be... You might ask,
5:08
why do I care so
5:10
much? Why, I'm curious about
5:12
the art or the skill
5:14
or the science of asking
5:17
questions. Did you threaten our
5:19
world? Did you press into
5:21
it? Well, if I, Ian
5:23
Wiley, a journalist, have to
5:25
use the Five W's Daily.
5:28
Can I learn how to
5:30
do my job better by
5:32
discovering those next level questions
5:34
and methods? The ones that
5:36
unlock the bigger stories. Can
5:41
I give you a
5:43
little example? Have you
5:45
got an appointment? I?
5:47
Is it an emergency?
5:49
Who is it? Is
5:51
it an emergency? What
5:53
is she telling her
5:55
about? What is it
5:57
that's wrong with you?
5:59
What's she got to
6:01
do with you? When
6:03
you last visited your
6:05
GP? What did they
6:07
ask at the end
6:09
of your appointment? Is
6:11
there anything else I
6:13
can do for you
6:15
today? But did you
6:17
know that researchers have
6:19
found that a simple
6:21
tweak to, is there
6:23
something else I can
6:25
do for you today,
6:27
encourages patients to open
6:29
up more to their
6:31
GPs? What are the
6:33
questions we are not
6:35
asking? Who might help
6:37
us? What professional question-askers
6:39
could we enlist along
6:41
the way? Shall we
6:43
begin in Edinburgh with
6:45
the philosopher and author
6:47
Lanny Watson, who has
6:49
devoted her career to
6:51
understanding the purpose of
6:53
asking questions? Can
6:56
I have the grilled tuna
6:59
melt? Please. Could I also
7:01
have a black-white bubble? Would
7:03
you like a drink, Lanny?
7:06
Could I take this amber
7:08
juice? So Lanny, what fascinates
7:11
you so much about questions
7:13
that you've devoted a large
7:15
part of your professional career
7:18
to studying them? Don't you
7:20
find questions fascinating too? I
7:22
mean, isn't it incredible that
7:25
we start questioning the world
7:27
around us from the very
7:29
first? weeks and months of
7:32
our lives and we continue
7:34
until the day we die,
7:36
isn't it amazing to think
7:39
that you've almost certainly never
7:41
gone a date without asking
7:43
questions, hundreds of them, and
7:46
that you will probably ask
7:48
hundreds of thousands of questions
7:51
over the course of a
7:53
lifetime? Isn't it bizarre that
7:55
we can't? Why asks Lanny,
7:58
do we pay so little
8:00
attention to the questions we
8:02
ask? Is it because they're
8:05
just so frequent, so instinctive?
8:07
like breathing or blinking, that
8:09
paying attention to every single
8:12
question. we ask would take
8:14
up all our time? Or
8:16
is it because we don't
8:19
always know what we're doing
8:21
when we're asking questions? We
8:23
don't really know what questions
8:26
are. Or is it because
8:28
we are living in a
8:31
world that values answers over
8:33
questions, so much so that
8:35
we have simply forgotten that
8:38
the questions are important and
8:40
powerful in their own right,
8:42
and that the answers would
8:45
be nothing without the questions.
8:47
intentionally choose not to use
8:49
a question mark at the
8:52
end of your questions. First
8:54
of all I thought is
8:56
it Lani just being careless?
8:59
Did I receive an extremely
9:01
poor education in grammar? Was
9:03
I part of the generation
9:06
that was just not taught
9:08
grammar? But isn't it interesting
9:11
that in Mandarin and Japanese
9:13
question marks... are actually not
9:15
commonplace, at least in formal
9:18
writing, because it's a Latin
9:20
medieval symbol, and formal writing
9:22
in those languages predates and
9:25
doesn't necessarily incorporate the use
9:27
of medieval Latin punctuation. Wouldn't
9:29
you love to be as
9:32
a philosopher? Wasn't it a
9:34
philosopher, Socrates, who, according to
9:36
Plato, showed us how to
9:39
use questions to challenge assumptions
9:41
and point out contradictions? What
9:44
is piety? Are you not
9:46
ashamed men of Athens to
9:48
cast so much for wealth,
9:51
honour and fame, but not
9:53
for wisdom and truth? Should
9:55
one return injustice for injustice
9:58
as most people say? But
10:01
how practically might
10:03
I improve my actual
10:05
question asking skills to
10:07
be stronger than justice?
10:10
Should we not in
10:12
life get as close
10:14
as possible to death?
10:16
Must not the pure
10:18
dwell in the pure?
10:21
But how practically might
10:23
I improve my
10:25
actual question asking
10:27
skills? What
10:30
could I learn I wonder
10:32
from interviewing a detective? Mary and
10:34
Joseph and the wee donkey can we
10:37
just move this thing along before a
10:39
tribe? It's all around a bloody
10:41
pen. What should I ask
10:43
Steve Hibbit? A former detective
10:46
superintendent with more than 40 years
10:48
of experience conducting investigations including the
10:50
Hillsborough Football Stadium disaster. and principal
10:52
author of Blackstone's crime investigator's handbook.
10:55
Shall I ask him what questions
10:57
he has found most effective? What
10:59
do you want to say about
11:01
the allegation that's been made or
11:04
what do you want to say
11:06
about this matter or what do
11:08
you want to tell me about
11:11
the murder that we're talking about?
11:13
If building rapport is essential to
11:15
uncovering the truth, says Steve, wouldn't
11:17
a more open-ended question like what do
11:19
you want to tell me about this
11:21
matter, which is opened up more than
11:24
one case for Steve, Wouldn't that
11:26
lead to deeper, more honest responses?
11:28
What would be an example of
11:30
a hard question and why it would be
11:32
hard? The why have you done it?
11:34
When did you formulate the intent to
11:36
do this? What made you decide to
11:38
pick that particular person to attack? What
11:40
do you want to tell us about
11:42
this? Are you able to tell us
11:44
about this? Is there anything stopping you
11:46
talking to us today? When it comes
11:48
to asking the difficult why questions, such
11:50
as why did you do that? Wouldn't
11:53
it be more effective to reframe
11:55
it as what were you thinking
11:57
at the time to reduce defensiveness?
12:00
while still uncovering intent. Are you
12:02
guilty of this, Efex? Because
12:04
it's a presumption. And why, says
12:06
Steve, ask accusatory questions like,
12:08
why aren't you talking to us?
12:10
When a gentler approach like,
12:12
is there anything stopping you from
12:15
talking to us, is far
12:17
more likely to yield cooperation. Steve,
12:20
shall we play a
12:23
game? Perhaps where you, the
12:25
detective, have been called
12:27
to the potential crime
12:29
scene in this photograph. But
12:32
how about we make it
12:34
a rule that you, the
12:37
detective, can speak only on
12:39
questions. You can only ask
12:41
questions. And I, as someone
12:43
who you find present at
12:46
the scene, I'm unable to
12:48
speak for some reason, can
12:50
answer only by nodding or
12:52
shaking my head. So
12:55
what would be your first question,
12:57
Steve? Is this your
12:59
car? Were
13:01
you driving the car
13:04
just before this happened?
13:08
Would I be correct in thinking
13:10
you were driving at the time? Was
13:13
anybody else in the car at the
13:15
time? Have
13:17
you opened the suitcase?
13:20
Shouldn't we, like detectives, always
13:22
be clear about the
13:24
distinction between investigative interviewing, which
13:26
seeks the truth, and
13:28
interrogation, which assumes guilt. Was
13:31
the suitcase in the
13:33
boot of the car? Was
13:36
it in the
13:38
back seat of the
13:40
car? And isn't
13:42
it true that the
13:44
moment we shift
13:46
into a more interrogative
13:48
tone, trust immediately
13:50
collapses? You've taken from
13:52
the suitcase that
13:54
we cannot see in
13:56
the picture. When
13:58
you were driving the
14:00
car, were you
14:02
driving at speed? Should
14:05
we pay more
14:07
attention to the environment?
14:09
which we're asking our questions. Ensuring, like
14:11
Steve does, that the other person isn't
14:13
hungry, cold or distracted, since comfort plays
14:15
such a critical role in delivering truthful
14:17
responses. Did you see the animal before
14:19
you hit it? Is what you've just
14:21
told me the truth? Shall
14:27
I see next what it's
14:29
like to be questioned in
14:32
court? What could I learn,
14:34
I wonder, from a barrister
14:36
who has spent a career
14:38
cross-examining witnesses? What about it's
14:40
a fair cop and you've
14:42
got me banned to rice.
14:44
Mr. Rumpoll, is this cross-examination
14:46
meant to be taken seriously?
14:49
What tips could I glean
14:51
from Melanie Simpson? a highly
14:53
regarded criminal defence casee who's
14:55
renowned for her exceptional cross-examination
14:57
and high acquittal rates. Can
14:59
you take me to the
15:01
old Billy, please? So where's
15:04
the best place for me
15:06
to sit? Just sit here.
15:08
So Millie, so we try
15:10
a little exercise where you're
15:12
cross-examining an awkward witness. Ay
15:14
me. who responds to every
15:16
question with another question. So,
15:19
how can I summarize Melanie's
15:21
advice? Well, isn't it just
15:23
as important to know when
15:25
not to ask a question
15:27
as it is to know
15:29
when to ask one? Especially
15:31
when asking might accidentally weaken
15:34
your case or your argument.
15:36
Shall we set it up
15:38
where you have to find
15:40
out what I mean for
15:42
dinner last night? Could I,
15:44
like Melanie, who recalls how
15:46
one carefully worded question destroyed
15:48
a co-defendant's defence, could I
15:51
get better answers if I
15:53
phrased my questions more precisely?
15:55
So what did you have
15:57
for dinner last night? Does
15:59
that really matter? Why don't
16:01
you want to answer the
16:03
question? What are you trying
16:06
to prove? Did you know
16:08
that barristers have to abide
16:10
by strict rules when questioning
16:12
vulnerable witnesses such as children
16:14
or survivors of trauma? What
16:16
does that tell us? That
16:18
the person who controls the
16:21
questions wields extraordinary influence and
16:23
not just in a courtroom?
16:25
Was it a family dinner
16:27
that you were cooking? Are
16:29
you trying to put words
16:31
into my mouth? Is there
16:33
a warning here for all
16:35
of us that questions themselves
16:38
hold immense power? Are we
16:40
aware just how much a
16:42
question can empower or disempower?
16:44
Can clarify or confuse? Can
16:46
expose or humiliate? Depending entirely
16:48
on how it is asked.
16:50
Do you like your children
16:53
to eat healthily? Why wouldn't
16:55
I? So are you a
16:57
good father? Do you have
16:59
a good relationship with your
17:01
children? Every father would like
17:03
to think that, wouldn't they?
17:05
Do your children have school
17:08
meals or do they have
17:10
a packed lunch in the
17:12
week? Have you noticed how
17:14
skillful professional question askers like
17:16
Steve and Melanie make their
17:18
next question entirely dependent on
17:20
the previous answer, constantly adjusting
17:23
their approach like a chess
17:25
player shifting strategy? And yet
17:27
with all the advances in
17:29
the advances in the advances
17:31
in forensic science, CCTV, DNA
17:33
evidence? Is there a risk
17:35
here that we're beginning to
17:37
undervalue the power of human
17:40
questioning in investigations? And could
17:42
it be that our growing
17:44
dependence on all kinds of
17:46
technology algorithms and artificial intelligence
17:48
is leading to a general
17:50
decline in this ancient art
17:52
of skillful intelligent questioning? Shall
17:55
we see what Lanny our
17:57
philosopher or philosopher- intelligent questioning?
17:59
Shall we see what Lanny
18:01
or philosopher-autiver thinks of philosophy
18:03
of philosophy- intelligent questioning? Are
18:05
we asking the right questions
18:07
about what that... technology has
18:10
to offer and what we
18:12
can gain from it. Are
18:14
we asking the right questions
18:16
about whether or not that
18:18
technology should exist in the
18:20
way that it does and
18:22
who's in charge of asking
18:25
those questions for us in
18:27
the context in which they're
18:29
being answered? Should we get
18:31
a second opinion this time
18:33
from one of those artificial
18:35
intelligence chat bots? likely to
18:37
make us better or worse
18:39
at asking questions. Should we
18:42
expect that generative AI, with
18:44
its vast capacity to provide
18:46
instant answers, might subtly discourage
18:48
us from asking deep, open-ended
18:50
questions in the first place?
18:52
Or might it be that
18:54
generative AI could elevate our
18:57
curiosity by exposing us to
18:59
unexpected answers, new ideas or
19:01
unfamiliar lines of thought? Thus
19:03
inspiring us to ask better
19:05
follow-up questions. So perhaps the
19:07
real question is, will we
19:09
allow generative AI to do
19:12
our thinking for us? Or
19:14
will we use it as
19:16
a tool to sharpen and
19:18
deepen our questioning skills? Shall
19:20
we zoom out from thinking
19:22
about questions just as a
19:24
tool for extracting information from
19:27
others? Because isn't there a
19:29
far greater purpose to asking
19:31
questions? One that's rooted in...
19:33
deep conversation, connection and understanding.
19:35
In this age where anti-social
19:37
behaviour has become normal, where
19:39
it's entirely acceptable to be
19:41
at a party and spend
19:44
most of the time looking
19:46
down at our phones, shouldn't
19:48
we be asking what we're
19:50
losing in the process? If,
19:52
as BBC research suggests, 40%
19:54
of 16 to 24-year-olds... be
19:56
lonely often or very often.
20:00
to seemingly connect why the nearly
20:02
half of US adults say they
20:04
struggle with loneliness. Couldn't we counter
20:06
this epidemic of loneliness, solitude
20:08
and selfish me time by
20:10
ditching our phones for social
20:13
interaction and getting back
20:15
into some healthier habits? Like
20:17
asking questions and being asked
20:19
questions. Wouldn't that be uncomfortable?
20:21
Sure, but isn't that discomfort
20:23
precisely the point? Is that
20:25
you again? How did you find
20:27
me here? Isn't it in those
20:29
moments of messy conversation and
20:31
awkward questioning that the best
20:33
experiences can emerge? Why are
20:35
you following me? Should we
20:37
ease off the social media
20:39
too? In a culture that prizes
20:42
self-expression above all else, should it
20:44
surprise us that we increasingly prefer
20:46
to speak at others rather than
20:49
listen to them? Can someone get
20:51
this guy out of the gym please? On
20:53
which side of the fence
20:55
do you sit? Would you
20:58
agree that social media for
21:00
all its promise rarely fosters
21:02
true conversation, but instead degenerates
21:04
into a threat of overlapping
21:07
monologues, rants and tirades, where
21:09
people seem more interested in
21:11
broadcasting their views than seeking
21:13
genuine understanding? Or do you
21:16
feel that social media exposes
21:18
us to diverse perspectives, real-time
21:20
discussions, expert insights, and actually
21:22
helps us refine our thinking? so
21:24
that we can ask more
21:27
informed, relevant questions. So come on
21:29
in, smart lad, now that you've
21:31
learned all this, what are you
21:33
going to do? Shouldn't I, at
21:35
the very least, take out my
21:37
airpods and wait for an answer
21:39
when I ask someone, how are
21:41
you on my morning dog walk?
21:43
But what if I also addressed
21:45
my addiction to needing answers to
21:47
every question I ask? Is the point of
21:50
asking a question to get an answer?
21:55
What man has been shared
21:58
by all these women? Or
22:00
could the act of
22:02
questioning itself carry a
22:04
deeper value? Don't some
22:07
of our favourite songs
22:09
ask questions that
22:11
go unanswered? What's love?
22:14
Asked Tina, got to
22:16
do with it. What's love?
22:18
Asked Tina, got to
22:20
do with it. What's
22:23
love? But a second-hand
22:25
emotion. Did
22:28
Elvis Costello expect
22:31
an answer when
22:34
he wrote? What's
22:36
so funny about
22:39
peace, love
22:41
and understanding?
22:44
Why wondered
22:46
Travis, does
22:48
it always rain on
22:50
me? Is it because
22:52
I lied when I
22:54
was 17? to unsettle,
22:56
to challenge, to surprise us
22:59
with unexpected, even disturbing
23:01
revelations about ourselves, the
23:03
world, life? Why is
23:05
it, after all, that some of
23:07
the holiest of scriptures across religious
23:09
traditions are full of unanswered
23:11
questions? One very big question.
23:13
Is it more rational to
23:15
believe in God? What's the
23:17
greatest piece of evidence that
23:19
you can bring to the
23:21
table? What is it that
23:23
Claire Bigno? my friend who
23:25
volunteers as a Samaritan says.
23:28
Isn't it the case that
23:30
when people feel fully heard
23:32
without judgment perhaps for the first
23:34
time I find that the relief they
23:36
experience can open the door to the
23:38
answers they seek? So do you just
23:40
listen? Can you understand me and
23:43
what I mean by active listening?
23:45
That when I hear their stories
23:47
of pain and respond with gentle
23:50
probing questions there is healing not
23:52
uncertainty but in exploration?
23:54
Aren't unanswered questions
23:56
better than unquestioned
23:59
answers? What
24:19
can lianne Roberts, who's
24:21
a church of England
24:23
priest and psychotherapist, tell
24:25
us about the biggest
24:27
of questions? If some
24:29
questions lian are unanswerable,
24:31
particularly about faith,
24:33
why are they still worth asking?
24:35
Well, do we really ask questions
24:37
solely for the sake of
24:39
receiving answers? Or do we
24:41
ask them for our own
24:43
sake? Because it matters to
24:45
give words and thought. to
24:47
the really big and really
24:50
difficult things. Can questions like,
24:52
is there a God or
24:54
is any of this God's
24:56
stuff true, ever really be
24:58
answered in a definite way?
25:01
Yet aren't these vital
25:03
questions to ask because they
25:05
acknowledge the possibility that there
25:07
might be more in the
25:10
world than we're aware of?
25:13
Do unanswerable questions, asks
25:15
Leon, place our own
25:17
selves and issues into
25:20
perspective? Perhaps most importantly,
25:22
could asking these unanswerable
25:25
questions give us some
25:27
reassurance that there are
25:29
things we simply do
25:31
not and cannot know? And
25:33
what if this realization helped
25:35
to expand our understanding
25:37
of ourselves and the world
25:40
in which we live? In
25:43
therapy too, isn't it often the
25:45
case that we come to acknowledge
25:47
that there are things we simply
25:50
cannot know or control? Questions like,
25:52
why did this happen to me?
25:54
Why do I feel so alone?
25:56
Or why can't I seem to
25:58
change this habit? or aspect of
26:01
myself. Can you envisage,
26:03
just for a moment,
26:05
letting go of the
26:07
need to know and
26:09
to control? Can you
26:11
picture a state of
26:13
not knowing? Can you
26:15
see that in that
26:17
very state of not
26:20
knowing, you could reach
26:22
a far more creative
26:24
place within yourself? Can
26:26
you imagine the connections
26:28
that could be made?
26:30
The feelings fully felt.
26:32
the understanding and ultimately
26:34
acceptance finally gained. Are
26:36
you like me exhausted
26:38
from all these questions?
26:40
But at the very
26:42
end of our lives,
26:45
when memories have faded
26:47
and certain difficulties, Will
26:49
we not find ourselves
26:51
left with nothing but
26:53
questions? Manuel, could you
26:55
lend Mrs. Richard your
26:57
assistance in connection with
26:59
her reservation? Okay. What?
27:01
Are you talking about
27:03
you seeing a little
27:05
man? What's going on
27:07
here? What's going on
27:10
here? What's going on
27:12
here? What's going on
27:14
here? What's wrong with
27:16
him? What's going on
27:18
here? What's wrong with
27:20
him? What's going on
27:22
here? What's wrong with
27:24
him? What's wrong with
27:26
him? So,
27:29
shall we end our time
27:31
together, or Q and Q
27:33
if you like, with these
27:36
thoughts? What are the questions
27:38
you've been too afraid to
27:40
ask? And what might change
27:42
if you ask them now?
27:45
Because when my time is
27:47
up, do I? Do you?
27:49
Do we really want our
27:52
final question to be what
27:54
if? You've
