Chris chats to John Carter Cash about mixing music with his father's letters, lyrics and poems for Johnny Cash: Forever Words. Plus he has a world exclusive first play of Elvis Costello's I'll Still Love You from the album. We also speak to neuroscientist Matthew Walker who takes us through his new book 'Why We Sleep' and explains how less sleep leads to a shorter life. We dedicate this morning's Top Tenuous to Robot Wars and ask for your desperate claims to the fame of the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ programme. Vassos is joined all the way from the middle of the Atlantic Ocean by Greg Bailey in the Sports Locker and we Pause For Thought with Anglican Priest and Quaker Ruth Scott.
