Charles Christian interviewing futurist Ray Kurzweil in 2013 - he's explaining how in the future 3D printing will mean a clone of me made from soya will be able to conduct the interview, while the real me stays in bed and watches myself on YouTube. Probably.

About
Charles Christian is an English barrister and Reuters correspondent turned author, editor, award-winning tech journalist and sometime werewolf hunter. 

With over 40 years experience as a chairman, moderator, keynote speaker, panellist, university lecturer, interviewer, podcaster, radio presenter, and even host of a one-man story-telling show (and before that he was a barrister advocating his clients' cases before judges and juries) he is rarely lost for words and has appeared on stages across the UK as well as in Europe, Australia and the United States.

​Topics
Although no longer covering his old day-job beat of law and technology he can speak on...

• Folklore and Urban Myths/Urban Legends
• Haunted Landscapes, including the Legends & History of the Wold Newton Triangle (Yorkshire) & the Waveney Valley (East Anglia) – he has written books on both these topics
• Werewolf-hunting in the 21st century – he was once commissioned by a UK national newspaper to search for one
• Dragons, Missing Links & other Cryptids in Legend & History
• Witches, Sorcerers & Alchemists in Legend & History – he has just completed a new book on this topic

As well as personal appearances, he is happy to participate in Zoom and Skype interviews etc (audio and/or video) and brings to any event his dry (albeit it sometimes dark) sense of humour.
