The Priests are 3 parish priests from Northern Ireland who catapulted to fame in 2008 after signing a major recording deal. One of the trio, Father Martin O'Hagan, tells Sally about their new album 'Alleluia', and what it's like juggling parish work with stardom.
Despite the many disturbing stories of shootings in the USA, America's love affair with the gun is as strong as ever. Sally discusses the complicated relationship American's have with firearms, with photographer and film maker Zed Nelson who is behind Gun Nation, a project which took him across the U.S to meet those invested in the issue; American priest Canon Tom Miller, who now lives in Orkney; and Gary Younge, editor-at-large of The Guardian. Gary also shares some of the human stories behind the statistics of gun violence in the United States, which he tackles in his book "Another Day in the Death of America".
