鈥�I鈥檓 a 44 year old professional, educated, attractive women in an open marriage, seeking single men age 35- 50 to help me explore my sexuality鈥�. 听This was the ad which San Francisco based magazine journalist Robin Rinaldi placed in the Casual Encounters section of a website. In her memoir 鈥楾he Wild Oats Project鈥� she reveals what inspired her to write that ad and what followed when she spent a year living in an open marriage with her husband Scott. Robin joined Jane to talk about how her longing for a baby, one which he husband did not share, lead her to seek out other ways to find passion, a year of sexual awakening and the impact on her marriage.

Should women just accept they are not as good at chess because they are 鈥榟ardwired differently鈥�? Leading chess player Nigel Short has claimed so in comments made in the 鈥楴ew in Chess鈥� magazine about the lack of women playing the game; he said 鈥淚t would be wonderful to see more girls playing chess, and at a higher level, but rather than fretting about inequality, perhaps we should just gracefully accept it as a fact.鈥�

Judit Polgar who was the youngest player of either sex to be awarded the title of grandmaster at the age of 15 Polgar disagrees. She was the world鈥檚 best female player for 26 years; she also beat Nigel Short in eight classical games to three in total with five draws. She says "Men and women are different but there are different ways of thinking and fighting still achieving the same results.鈥� Neurologist Dr Gina Rippon of Aston University joins us to discuss the evidence.

Zahava Kohn and her parents were taken from their home in Holland to the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp when she was just eight years old. Zahava rarely spoke about her traumatic childhood and how she survived more than a year of starvation and disease, but all that changed in 2001 when her mother died and she discovered a tiny suitcase tucked away in a cupboard. The contents of this suitcase proved to be a remarkable archive of one family鈥檚 Holocaust experience: a trove of perfectly preserved original documents, photographs and letters.听Zahava鈥檚 daughter, Hephzibah Rudofsky, on seeing the suitcase encouraged her mother to talk about her experiences in the camp for the first time. Zahava and Hephzibah join Jane seventy years after the liberation of Bergen-Belsen concentration camp to discuss how finding the听artifacts听has impacted on their relationship and sparked their project 鈥楽urviving the Holocaust鈥�.

听Tonight at 1830 Radio 4Extra is broadcasting with Dr Mary Stocks (1891-1975) who was a pioneering academic, social worker, educationalist, writer, playwright, early suffragette and broadcaster. The programme is part of a series of interviews called 鈥楩rankly Speaking鈥� which was considered 'risky' and 'unkempt' when it originally aired in the 1950s. 听But, in 1952, when it was launched on the 麻豆约拍 麻豆约拍 Service it was a completely novel and ground breaking series, because instead of the traditional pairing of interviewee and interviewer there were three interviewers.听The original interview was first broadcast in 1964, in which Mary 听talks about the first suffragette march and the crowd response.
