Off Air... with Jane and Fi

It's the last day of the good ship Fi and Eve before they sail off into the sunset (well, Fi to Norway, Eve to Turkey). They cover the joy of the eclipse, A-Level results day, God loving altos, carrying a razor blade in your pocket, and chicken pizza.

Plus, music video director Tim Pope, who shot videos for Queen, The Cure and David Bowie, discusses his biography 'I Shoot Rock Stars: The Wild Adventures of a Music Video Director'.

We're just a few days out from Fi heading off to strap herself to a ski jump zipline in Oslo, but there's lots to discuss before then! Fi and Eve cover buying miscellaneous items in TK Maxx, maternal sounds, melted hidden chocolate, and teaching your children about your younger self. 

Plus, The Sunday Times' Roya Nikkhah is presenting the live show with Fi this week. She speaks to pop star Pixie Lott about her new show 'Who Killed Marilyn?'

Get off at Swindon before your arse starts to hurt (with Pixie Lott)

It's Tuesday and Fi and Eve have already had a meeting, a pre-meeting to the meeting, and a pre-pre-meeting conversation - but they're not all chatted out just yet! They cover getting distracted at work (ironically), there's news on Cheltenham, an update from our early-rising jeweller Harriet, and Fi gives us a song...

Plus, Professor Clare McGlynn, Professor of Law at Durham University, discusses her new book 'Exposed: The Rise of Extreme Porn and How We Fight Back'.

The spirit of Bonnie Tyler is with us...

All aboard Fi and Eve’s tugboat! Jane is off to an undisclosed Greek island, fending off the paparazzi. Fi and Eve discuss Noel Edmonds’ Swap Shop’s impact on the circular economy, taking a film in two halves, labia-like hanging baskets, and their favourite times of day. 

Plus, Laura Hackett, deputy literary editor and fiction editor across both The Sunday Times and The Times, stops in to share her book picks of the week.

I like my coffee with a polemic from an important man

We've made it to our eleventh book club edition (we think)! This time, we've been reading 'Interpreter of Maladies' by Jhumpa Lahiri. Was Jane won over by the short story form? (We're fairly confident you already know the answer to that!) Plus, the wonderful Laura Hackett, deputy literary editor and fiction editor across The Sunday Times and The Times, joins Jane and Fi to share her thoughts and expertise. 

Fi is back on Monday, but Jane is off on holiday for a week, meaning Eve is back in the hot seat. 

Thank you so much for all your enthusiasm, engagement and interaction. We hope you'll join us for the next one.

Book Club - Interpreter of Maladies

Jane is over bubble baths! She's matured! Please don't bring it up again. She's onto Epsom salts. Once that's been established, Jane and Fi cover resisting film hype, rowing on the club floor, David Cameron pointing at fish, and Howards' Way being our answer to Dallas. 

Plus, electronic music duo Groove Armada discuss 25 years of their anthem Superstylin' and their upcoming hearing-safe gig for over-50s, designed to encourage people to get their hearing checked. 

Anyone can take the free three-minute hearing test on the Specsavers website. If you're aged over 50 and take the test, you can join the list for free tickets to Groove Armada's gig at Phonox on Thursday 15 October. Go to Specsavers.co.uk/testlist.

Let's hear it for the bed jacket! (with Groove Armada)

We're somewhere between Jane's morning coffee run and Fi's afternoon Diet Coke run, but we're managing... Jane and Fi cover Margaret Thatcher's bouffant, sparky nighties, the spookiest time of day, and the political message behind Jungle Cruise. Plus, there's a small accent warning for Caroline. 

And... he's doubly Frank. It's BBC Security Correspondent and author Frank Gardner, discussing his new novel 'Ballistic'. 

Our book club pick is a collection of short stories! 'Interpreter of Maladies' is by Jhumpa Lahiri.

Watering and tending to the clitoris (with Frank Gardner)

Jane is back! Back, back! And she returns to Fi's new Jason Derulo-inspired alter ego: they discuss the care system, misguided massage chairs, royal soap shrines, Gillian Anderson's drinks range, and collapsible bidets.

There's no Visualised Monday episode this week - it's just a Monday.

They also bring an update on Fringe By The Sea.

If it doesn't have Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, then I don't want it!
