with Tony Kearney

Two hours of music and conversation with a faith and ethical perspective. Taking the week's events to ask what they say about our values and beliefs.

Storytelling and artistic expression are being used to address difficult scientific subjects. Tanya MacDonald, Content Curator at the Eden Project Dundee, and Storyteller Lindsey Gibb join Tony Kearney to explore the power of storytelling when it comes to climate change.

We look at the concept of Black History Month, through a South Asian lens. Tony talks to Zamard Zahid, writer and advocate for racial justice and equality within education, and Nasar Meer Professor of Sociology and director of the RACE.ED network at the University of Edinburgh.

The disappearance of a teenage girl in Vatican City in the 80s is examined in a new Netflix documentary series - Vatican Girl: The Disappearance of Emanuela Orlandi. Ronnie Convery, the Director of Archdiocese of Glasgow, joins Tony to talk about this enduring mystery.

Diwali also known as the Festival of Lights, lasts for five days. Sharing the customs, traditions and origin stories around the celebrations are the President of Edinburgh Diwali festival Rajnish Singh, and Sodhi Deerhe, a professional musician and devotional singer who works with Glasgow Mela.

In our occasional inspiration series, Kippen based poet and teacher Tam Beirne reflects on the powerful impact of books on his life.

We also hear from Stuart Murdoch from Belle and Sebastian talking about how important meditation is in his life.
