Saturday Live...

is a place on Radio 4 where you are welcome to jump in and join us - or to simply lie on the side and listen. It's full of stuff that matters.
Each week we have a studio guest star who acts as a kind of radio columnist commenting on all that we do and talking about their own take on life. We've had Alexander McCall Smith, Tony Blackburn, Jeanette Winterson and Joanna Trollope - I only give you this list so that you can see for yourself they are a mixed bag of talent. 

Inheritance Tracks is a gorgeous feature that allows someone to talk about the song they inherited from their parents and the one they'll pass on to the next generation - it's a real radio gem.

It's hard to label what our big interviews are about but they all focus on the odd path that life can take - from  the man who spent 25 years in jail for a crime he didn’t commit to the professor who kept the  Leaning Tower of Pisa from leaning too far. We have a habit of asking people  what it is that they wish they had known - try it yourself, it can be quite revealing - and it's all wrapped up in a pretty bow by our studio poets.

You know what? The best thing you can do is just to give us a listen...
