SatLive: 11 May 13: Michael Sandel




Saturday Live show

Summary: Sian Williams and Aasmah Mir talk to US political philosopher Michael Sandel, and explore notions of death, firstly with JP Devlin who brings us a 'guerrilla report' from Nunhead Cemetery in London, and secondly they find out about the increasingly popular 'Death Cafés run by Jon Underwood. Then they meet child genius Jacob Barnett and his Mum Kristine. In our 'sound sculpture', we hear the doleful sounds of the harmonium- loved and restored by folk musician Pete Roe and we enjoy The Inheritance Tracks of American legend Don McLean. Finally, Sian and Aasmah travel in the footsteps of Bonnie Prince Charlie with Gregor Ewing and his border collie Meg- who carries her own rucksack. Good dog.
