PODCASTS FOR FREE SPEECH

A couple of podcasts of note:

Firstly, BBC Radio 5 Live's Up All Night "Pods and Blogs" section had a feature on the March for Free Expression that went out early on Tuesday morning. You can listen to it here and read Chris Vallance's thoughts on it here. Yours truly got interviewed, but as I was suffering from a severe case of flu and we were busy running across Trafalgar Square to get out of the rain at the end of the rally, my thoughts aren't perhaps as clear as they ought to be - Peter Risdon and David T do a much better job!

On the subject of the March, Little Atoms have a podcast you can download here. I've not had a chance to listen to it yet, but if it's up to their usual standard you won't be disappointed!

They've assembled quite an impressive set of interviews over the past few months, even managing to catch Marcus du Sautoy, whose "Music of the Primes" was one of my favourite reads last year.
