The Lesley Riddoch Podcast

Andy Burnham's, big British question.
Peter Murrell in a muddle?
A series of post Brexit blows for live music.
Now Scotland launches

Show Notes

We just can't escape the continuing saga of the internal SNP leadership spat with the appearance yesterday of Peter Murrell before the Holyrood parliamentary inquiry committee and Alex Salmond's no show today.

Just what does the whole sorry affair say about the nature of public debate and scrutiny of Scottish governance?

Lesley did, however,make her presence felt on Sky News and Good Morning Scotland and we reflect on those very different experiences.

The Big Questions this Sunday focused on the nature of Britishness with "interesting" contributions from the English guests and a cracking one from Darren McGarvey.

We also dip our analytical toes into the troubled waters of the  post Brexit, digital downloadable, British music industry and the launch of Now Scotland.

I might also happened to have mentioned my birthday.
