Off Air with Jane & Fi

What a day it is! And what a time to be alive in this wonderful city of London! The sun is shining and Jane's tube driver has got us all in the mood. Jane and Fi are back in more familiar surroundings to discuss all the important stuff - matching underwear, habitual idiocies, whether you should lock a bathroom door around loved ones, the power of the wet wipe, and the lacklustre nature of Shreddies.

Plus, Harriet Tyce, crime writer and Traitors contestant, discusses her new book ‘Witch Trial’.

Our next book club pick is 'A Town Like Alice' by Nevil Shute.

Our most asked about book is called 'The Later Years' by Peter Thornton.

Jane and Fi are reunited, but they’re in new, cosier surroundings… They cover milk-bottle glasses, moving schools, Wuthering Heights, three-legged cats, children in restaurants, and who sat on the lesbians.

It's the last podcast of the week and we're tumbling into Thursday... literally. It's Jane's last day flying semi-solo, holding down the fort, and battening down the hatches - she really does it all! Jane and Eve talk men in power, the best cinemas in the city, bilingualism, and life without a loaf.

Plus, television producer and journalist Felicity Spector discusses her book ‘Bread and War’, ahead of the fourth anniversary of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

Jane has yet again come to work with a smile on her face (the office heating was on and the canteen was stocked with Cadbury’s Fruit and Nut). Fi’s still off, so Eve props Jane up - they chat Barbara Pym, aliens, bowling with piles, and book translations.

Plus, space scientist Dr Maggie Aderin-Pocock discusses her memoir 'Starchild'.

Fi’s still off, so Jane is holding down the fort, with some help from Eve ('fresh' from Berlin). There’s more discussion about revision, fear of failure, the eccentricities of Berlin, and Jane’s love of work (and Smash Hits).

Plus, Jane speaks to Stéphane Babonneau, the lawyer to Gisèle Pelicot. Gisèle’s book is called 'A Hymn to Life: Shame Has to Change Sides'.
