This was the most extraordinary piece of broadcasting I’ve seen for a while. At best disrespectful at worst sexist and misogynostic. The problem with filling live news on a story that doesn’t need speculation. Very poor indeed

When the deeply suspect and outrageous use of an intern by a football team to do some 'spying' has been in the news, we are talking internships on the latest podcast. How do you find them? Do they make a big difference to your CV? How do you maximise them? Should you do unpaid work? Links below

Very sad to hear of the passing of Moya (Maire) Brennan of Clannad. A band I spent a lot of time to listening to when I was younger - and she had such a beautiful voice. In a Lifetime with Bono is a classic - but there are many. I saw them at Albert Hall with my mum.......

Heard two radio news bulletins today say that oil had "dropped well below the 100 dollar a barrel mark". What does 'well below' mean? Turns out it's 94/95. Well-below to me is 70. Whilst the price will fluctuate - why not be specific? Vague news scripts like that are lazy.
