This week, Lydia Dugdale celebrates All Saints Day by remembering the lost of art dying well; George Pitcher observes that simple calls for peace are often against the grain of power, yet many still yearn for it, even when faced with complexities and impossibilities; Ian Hamlin talks about the merging of stories and their power to inspire and change the world, as he continues on the trail to find out more about his hero.

Listen to a curated selection of the editor's top picks which caught our interest this week. We also release themed boxsets from time to time.

In the second of our Summer episodes, Simon Horobin unpacks CS Lewis's assertion that great stories allow ideas to be experienced rather than merely thought about; James Cary explores the Disneyfication of the Monasteries in Shardlake and Sylvianne Aspray asserts that it's our mistakes that set us apart from the machines.
