Guardian Daily: The noughties

For our last podcast of the decade, we look back on the last 10 years: the bright spots as well as the unimaginable horrors.

Comment editor Georgina Henry describes the effect 9/11 had on her personally, and as a journalist. She's upbeat about society becoming more liberal ... and also shares her love of Strictly Come Dancing.

Culture editor Alex Needham laments the effects of celebrity culture on all aspects of life in the noughties, and looks at signs that America is a superpower in decline. Alex has cherished the rise of the Arctic Monkeys.

Political commentator Michael White thinks we'll miss the prosperity we've enjoyed over the last 10 years, and considers the effects of the dominance of the internet.

Leave your thoughts below.

Guardian Daily returns on Monday 4 January.
