Cerys handpicks you 3 hours of music from her extensive and broad record collection, spanning continents, genres and eras.

This week Cerys' guest is Dr. John Cooper Clarke, who recently published his autobiography; I Wanna Be Yours, and is fresh off stage having completed the 2021 leg of his live tour. Known as the people's poet, the Poet Laureate of Punk John reflects on his career with Cerys and discusses his love of music.

Paris-based Tunisian artist Houeida Hedfi talks about creating her debut album Fleuves de l'Âme, which took nine years to make. Houeida says she came to music late, getting her first drum kit at the age of 27, after already establishing her career as an academic in maths and economics.
