Rima Ahmed
Rima Ahmed presents a weekly selection of the best bits of audio across the BBC.
This week, we hear how to find light, laughter and legacy amongst the radio schedules, even in the midst of grief. Plus, Karine Polwart ponders deep time on the granite shores of the Isle of Arran, 300 years after the birth of so-called father of geology, James Hutton. And as Add to Playlist goes out on the road, Anna Phoebe and Jeffrey Boayke celebrate Black British music at the V&A East Museum in Stratford.
