Janice talks to author Malorie Blackman and singer-songwriter Fish discusses his new single, plus a look at the 2014 art school degree shows and new play Money: The Game Show.

Children's Laureate, Malorie Blackman is undertaking a tour of Scottish schools this week, talking to children and adults alike about encouraging reading and writing. Janice will be finding out a bit more about what drives this prolific and award-winning author.

Money: The Game Show, an interactive new play soon to open at The Traverse that takes a playful and politically sharp look at the roots of the financial crisis and its impact, and asks the big questions: what is money? What is it worth? And what happens if we stop believing in it? Writer Clare Duffy and one of the stars, Stuart Ryan give us a flavour.

Janice chats to Fish about his new album and preparations for his tour.

Crime-writers Craig Robertson and Neil Broadfoot discuss their respective new releases and the role location plays in their writing.

Cultural commentators Lynne McCrossan and Phil Miller cast their eyes over the ECA and Dundee's Duncan of Jordanstone graduate degree shows.
