Whew. What a scorcher! And the weather's hot too. Slip on your shades, and listen to our interview with the incredibly talented Fiona Sampson, about her subtly structured collection Come Down, and wander with her into organic and resonant evocations of nature infused with memories and undermined by loss. And instead of hunching over their computer screens, Robin and Peter venture off to Beachy Head to gaze down at the English Channel and the chalk cliffs of the Sussex coast. There, in the heatwave heat, they muse on some of the highlights of the second season and sip cold beer as a bazillion flying ants issue from the cracked earth. Fiona's new book, Starlight Wood - Walking Back to the Romantic Countryside, is due out in September.Photo of Fiona Sampson by Ekaterina Voskresenskaya.

You know us. At Planet Poetry we are always mooning around thinking about poetry instead of doing the laundry. But imagine if you had to haggle with a censor just to get your words read... Or had to account for your personal morality to an interrogator. Discovering the subtly devastating poetry of The Kindly Interrogator by Alireza Abiz (Shearsman books translated by the author and W.N. Herbert) will remind you of the fragility of the freedom many of us take for granted.Plus you can expect a bit of Santa banter, pedantry and crows. We discuss Grief Is The Thing With Feathers by Max Porter (Faber) as well as the intriguing pamphlet Articles of Twinship (Bare Fiction) by Peter Wallis.

In the beautiful, unspoiled landscape of Pembrokeshire, a serial killer is at large: two double murders; an assault; the rape and assault of two teenagers - all potentially the work of one man. This is the fascinating true story of a brutal murderer and the detectives who worked the cold case for six years in order to bring him to justice. Combining cutting edge forensic techniques with old fashioned detective work, a team of detectives worked to build a case against their prime suspect. But it was a race against time: would he strike again? No one could predict that the killer's appearance on a gameshow would provide bizarre but crucial evidence. The operation is now recognised as one of the greatest cold case reviews ever undertaken in the UK. The killer is now serving a "life means life" sentence.
This is part one of my upcoming series of Tori Amos podcasts, which are based on my 2013 eBook Tori Amos: Soul Searching and Uncensored. (Check my website joejacksoninterviewer.com). It was the first of three remarkable interviews we did and even though it took some time for us to connect, during the interview, and despite the fact that Tori at first was sitting on a window ledge, twenty feet away from me - she later sat beside me - and the sound isn't great at times, Peter Kenny, Head of Warner Brothers Records Ireland said of the subsequent article - it's in the eBook - "that was the best rock music interview I ever read." I myself would say the second interview I did with Tori, was one of my best and she remains one of my favourite among the 1,4000 celebrities I interviewed. Hell, The Irish Times even censored an entire interview we did. But that is another story.

Written by a retired British soldier, Trouble at Zero Hour is a breathless and vivid story, dramatising three of the key Allied operations that turned the tide of the Second World War. 6 June, 1944, somewhere over the Normandy coastline: Robbie Stokes sits in a glider, his Bren resting on the floor between his outstretched legs. The nose lowers and the glider descends rapidly: 10 minutes of stomach-churning twists and turns until suddenly the call goes up to 'brace'. The belly makes contact with the ground and the first Allied troops tumble out into occupied Europe.

The city of Kilkenny was rocked by the notorious witchcraft trial of 1324 (covered in the last two episodes). These events took place seven centuries ago in the long distant past. To conclude the series on the trial embarked on my own witch hunt in the 21st century. I wanted to find if anything remained of the supposed witch Alice Kyteler who disappeared in 1324.I took a recorder and soon found myself in buildings Alice herself used to frequent. Over the course of a few days I was able to unearth numerous places and artefacts associated with Alice Kyteler giving you a unique insight into her notorious trial and the events surrounding it.Thanks to Grace Fegan, Elizabeth Keyes & Peter Kenny for their time and interviews.There is still four three tickets available for the Witchcraft Tour which visits all the locations assocaited with the trial.

But what if the boy hero and the malevolent, threatening taint were one and the same? What if the boy slowly came to realize he was the reincarnation of an evil god? Would he save the world . . . or destroy it? Among the Academy's warrior-thieves, Annev de Breth is an outlier. Unlike his classmates who were stolen as infants from the capital city, Annev was born in the small village of Chaenbalu, was believed to be executed, and then unknowingly raised by his parents' killers. Seventeen years later, Annev struggles with the burdens of a forbidden magic, a forgotten heritage, and a secret deformity. When he is subsequently caught between the warring ideologies of his priestly mentor and the Academy's masters, he must choose between forfeiting his promising future at the Academy or betraying his closest friends. Each decision leads to a deeper dilemma, until Annev finds himself pressed into a quest he does not wish to fulfil. Will he finally embrace the doctrine of his tutors, murder a stranger, and abandon his mentor? Or will he accept the more difficult truth of who he is . . . and the darker truth of what he may become . . . Read by Peter Kenny (p) Orion Publishing Group Ltd 2019
