Janice Forsyth talks to Scotland's new national librarian, Amina Shah. Plus reaction to the Scottish Album of the Year Award.

Janice is joined by Vic Galloway, co-host of the 10th Scottish Album of the Year Award, to discuss Saturday night's announcement and to look at the diversity of Scotland's music scene.

Janice interviews Scotland’s new national librarian, Amina Shah, about what this role involves, her favourite items in our national collection, her own taste in books and reading and how libraries can be hotbeds of romance!

Find out about a brand new farce – starring a cast of actors with learning disabilities – which opens later this week in Edinburgh.

The co-host of the official Strictly podcast, Kim Winston, joins Janice with reaction – and backstage gossip – from Saturday night’s show.

Artist Peter Kennard joins Janice to talk about his response to the climate emergency, which is being exhibited in Glasgow during the COP 26 conference.

Plus Janice talks to two of the members of the band behind our brand new single of the week.
