  1. Anthony Bourdain’s Sharp Knives

    Ten years ago, professional chef and sharp-edged raconteur Anthony Bourdain took out his literary boning knife and went to work on the hidden world of the professional kitchen.

    His bestselling “Kitchen Confidential” told wild stories – way out of school – of sex, drugs and scary hygiene in the realm of the tony restaurant and haute cuisine.

    Then Bourdain went big. Book after book, and a big TV show – “Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations” — that took his wicked wit and eye all over the world.

    Now he’s looking back. Still tough.

  3. Excess Baggage: Alien environments, Chad, Jewish India

    Prof Brian Cox flew to the top of the atmosphere, dived to the bottom of the Pacific Ocean, descended into a cave soaked in sulphuric acid and witnessed a total solar eclipse tells Sandi how visiting some of earth’s most extreme locations gave him an idea of other planets’ environments.

    Chief executive of Oxfam Dame Barbara Stocking talks to Sandi about her recent visit to Chad, and explains how lack of water is at the heart of the humanitarian crisis and that the role of women in organising wells offers some hope.

    Artist and writer Esther David is from a Indian Jewish community and tells Sandi whow they came to be there and how the two cultures have become intertwined.

  5. Astronomycast 145: Interstellar Travel

    In science fiction it’s easy to hop into your spaceship and blast off for other stars. But the true distances between stars, and the limits of relativity make interstellar travel almost impossible with our current technology. What would it really take to travel from star to star, exploring the galaxy?

  6. The Demon-Haunted World – Matt Jones

    Since the 60s we’ve imagined the combination of computers and our environment would create both utopias and dystopias. Since the 80’s we’ve seen academics, artists and corporate R&D labs prototype these futures from the top-down. Now, hackers are building sensors, bots and software into everything around them bottom-up, fast, cheap and out-of-control. They’re creating environments that react, adapt and respond to us - and perhaps more importantly - each other: The Demon-Haunted World. Matt’s session will be a whistlestop tour of those days of future past and pointers to some practical futures we can start building right now, together.
