Activist Negin Shiraghaei helps the team to understand the Iranian protests about the wearing of the hijab, and writer and journalist Lamorna Ash gives the backstory to her striking long read in the Guardian about two of her friends who have surprisingly turned from non-believing comedians to ordinands in the Church of England. With Hannah and Leo’s close links to local journalism, they also reflect on the talent in local radio following the recent grilling of Liz Truss.
