Nicola Meighan talks to Nile Rodgers and comedian Limmy

Nicola Meighan sits in for Janice Forsyth and hears about Limmy's new book of short stories, plus Nile Rodgers talks about making music and coming to Glasgow.

Nicola talks to comedian Limmy about his second volume of short stories, That's Your Lot.

Actor Oliver Chris plays Prince William in Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ2 drama King Charles III, which imagines a near-future in which the Prince of Wales inherits the throne, and finds himself in conflict with both Parliament and his own family.

Adam Wilkinson, director of Edinburgh World Heritage, tells Nicola about new exhibition 101 Objects, a project which reveals the history of Edinburgh through items that can be found across the city.

Music legend Nile Rodgers on 40 years of Chic, performing in Glasgow this summer, and his memories of his first meeting with David Bowie.

As Mental Health Awareness Week gets underway, Nicola talks to Tim Grayburn about his memoir Boys Don't Cry. It documents him coming to terms with his depression, creating a show called Fake It Til You Make It with his performance artist partner Bryony Kimmings, and why he wants to reach out to men across the globe to not suffer in silence.

Australian poets Omar Musa and Luka Lesson are in Scotland this week to team up with fellow spoken word artists Jenny Lindsay and Michael Pederson. It's the start of a collaboration which will finish with a show at the Edinburgh International Book Festival this August: Nicola meets all four of them as the poetry begins.

Single of the Week is Farfisa Song by Looper.
