Stuart Maconie presents solo and is joined by writer John Niven.

Stuart's guest today is cult author and journalist John Niven. Well-known for his novels such as Kill Your Friends (made into a film starring Nicholas Hoult in 2015) and Cold Hands he's here to talk about his latest book.

If that wasn't enough, there's the trusty show staple The Chain - where you, the actual listener, get the chance to link one track to the one before - and Teatime Themetime, for all your huddle-round-the-wireless-radio-quiz needs. Plus all the latest releases, classic tunes and a dose of Music News to keep you updated on all the most recent happenings from your favourite bands and artists.
