I had this problem with get_iplayer 3.06 and Ubuntu.
The issue was that my CPAN was not set-up fully so even though I thought I was
updating IO::Socket::SSL I actually wasn't.
Start by ensuring that you are using a 2.x.x version of IO::Socket::SSL by
running:
perl -MIO::Socket::SSL -e 'print "$IO::Socket::SSL::VERSION\n";'
If you are, then that is not the issue.
If not, try updating using cpanm rather than full-blown cpan (uses a lot less
memory):
cpanm install IO::Socket::SSL

I have not yet used Linux to run get_iplayer so I cannot help with Linux
dependencies.
Debugging is not a matter of 'proper' software tools; it is a matter of
approach. You should aim to keep everything as simple as possible and test one
thing at a time.
What happens when you click the link in your paragraph above? Does your
browser display a page with a blue-green background with a heading "Schedule
30 October - 5 November 2017"?
If it doesn't, you need to find out why. There is no point in considering why
get_iplayer cannot analyse the page if your browser cannot see it. If the
browser can display the page, you can then go on to study what get_iplayer is
doing with it. Identify where in the code it is being processed and the names
of relevant variables. Add print statements to print the values of the
variables before and after an operation.

The debug output is mainly concerned with processing options. You have used
--nocopyright so it is not even possible to confirm the version you are
running. Remove all the options, including your preferences, and run it with
the defaults. If it works with the defaults, add the options back one by one.
Best wishes
