Facing up to injustice. It’s something Dr Meenal Viz does well. She recently had a racist slur levelled at her. She was shaken but knew she had to take a firm stance. She shared her brave, inspiring story with us.


Who will be the Government's next Media Director? Clive Golt has stepped down after 15 years, and has been described by Government as an "invaluable pillar of Gibraltar's public”. We spoke to our reporter Jonathan Sacramento about Clive’s contributions.


Louis Parral also filled us in on the sporting events happening this weekend happening at Europa Point, which will also be where Lions and Bruno's Magpies go head to head in the 2025 Rock Cup final. It's the first time in six seasons that Lincoln Red Imps have not made the final - tomorrow promises to be a historic occasion! We invited the captains of either side to the studio: Shea Breakspear of Lions Gibraltar and Paco Zúñiga Gil of Brunos Magpies.


The 68th Gibraltar International Drama Festival culminates tomorrow at the Ince’s Hall Theatre. Performances all week have been judged by adjudicator Tristan Marshall, who is a lecturer at Shakespeare’s Globe. We spoke to Tristan alongside Culture's Giovi Viñales.


And, one of the rock's most historic sports clubs are celebrating their 60th anniversary. Lourdians Athletics Club was founded in 1964 by both Hector Romero and Douglas Rodriguez. Sharon Celecia, Avelino Baldachino and Emily Peat told us more about the club.
