Two hours of music and conversation from a faith and ethical perspective, taking the week's events to task and asking what they say about values and beliefs.

Ricky is joined by Fraser Nelson, Scottish editor of the current affairs magazine The Spectator, to
talk about matters political and personal.

Journalists Ruth Wishart and Fraser Nelson discuss the state of the Press today - and if its power and ethics have been irretrievably eroded.

Archbishop Leo Cushley reveals to Ricky his vision for the future of the Archdiocese of St Andrews and Edinburgh, and reflects on the Pope's recent announcement about the resignation of Cardinal Keith O'Brien.

Early results from a forthcoming report from the Equality and Human Rights Commission suggest that employees with a religion feel under pressure to keep their beliefs and faith symbols hidden in the public sphere. Farkhanda Chaudhry from Interfaith Scotland and John Haldane, Professor of Philosophy at St Andrews University join Ricky to unpack the reasons why people might feel uneasy.

Money and our relationship with it can often be cited as an indicator of our morality and generosity, but do we over-rely on it as a measure of moral behaviour? Virginia Moffat of Ekklesia; Dr Neil Thin at the University of Edinburgh and John Haldane discuss our complicated emotional and moral relationship with money.
