A presenter is struck down by illness yet again, so Jo and Marshall take the reins giving the verdict on Quentin Tarantino's eighth film (coincidentally named the Hateful Eight) and War and Peace, the novel cause Marshall doesn't mess around with silly television adaptations. Whilst Life is Amazing informs us about a terrifying curse on the cast of a well loved TV show and why you might want to stop eating so much fast food.

With Marshall struck down by man flu (or a so called "chest infection") Jo and James provide a mini Oscars Round Up with The Revenant, The Danish Girl and Room featuring. James reviews Bill Ryder Jones' new album West Kirby County Primary and Marshall is reached through a magical device during Life is Amazing to discuss the remarkable qualities of lobsters and a new way to examine epidemics.

The Niche goes mainstream when Jo and James review Star Wars whilst Marshall keeps us grounded by finding the deeper meaning in Kurt Cobain's fart noises. Plus a very special opening.

Late Night Niche continues on Shoreditch Radio with Jo's turn to pick pop song of the week, plus reviews of Miles Davis' Dark Magus and Steve Jobs plus our regular Life is Amazing featuring the scientific discoveries of Mathieu Flamini and the power of modern medicine.

The Late Night Niche gang make their glorious return to Shoreditch Radio, with new feature Pop Song of the Week, reviews of Sicario and God Only Knows, several stories to confirm that Life is indeed Amazing and as always the music that you probably don't know but will love.
