Craig gets you to the midweek point with Tim Burgess and Artistic Director and CEO of Contact in Manchester, Keisha Thompson.

Tim Burgess chats about his upcoming double album 'Typical Music', Glastonbury plans and whether or not he has ever considered a Madchester reunion.

Keisha is the UK鈥檚 first poet to run a multi-arts venue and the first Black woman, first Mancunian and at 32, the youngest, to run Contact theatre. She begins working with the venue this month as it celebrates its 50th year.

The Trunk of Punk will also return, to kick down your door!
