On the programme this week are Caitlin Moran, Eric Idle and Rob Brydon.
Caitlin’s here to talk about - how to be hopeful in a world gone mad.
For more than half a century Eric Idle’s refuge from the mad world of comedy, music, film and fame has been a little place in Provence. And his latest book is a love letter to it.
And Rob Brydon is in a happy place having found hope, peace and contentment in his work, not least in writing about his cat.
Also, we have a listener on the Isle of Wight offers thanks to the young man who pulled him out of trouble when a swim went very wrong one day last month.
Plus, we have the Inheritance Tracks of the Professor of Physics and broadcaster Jim Al-Khalili.
