Industry body The Radio Academy organised an event in London on 18 November called Adrian Van Klaveren in Conversation. Matt Wells, Head of Audio at The Guardian and presenter of the paper's weekly Media Talk podcast, grilled the 5 live Controller for nearly an hour. His questions cover many of the points raised in comments here on the blog recently so I asked the Radio Academy if I might publish their recording of the event. Some of the questions from the floor are inaudible but it should be pretty clear what they're about from Adrian's answers.
