Professor, propaganda and plants


Listen Later

Gemma, Tim and James speak to Professor Richard Bentall from the University of Sheffield. He is part of a team studying people's attitudes towards lockdown. Professor Bentall also talks about how to be resilient during a pandemic. BBC Bradford's political reporter Aisha Iqbal joins Tim to discuss her investigation into how misinformation is being spread about the Covid-19 vaccine. It's feared that this fake news is leading to some communities to reject the vaccine. And James talks house plants. It's after a letter to the local newspaper wanted to know more about how James keeps his house plants looking so good.

If you have a question for the team and want to get in touch please email [email protected] and put ‘Yorkshirecast’ in the subject of the email.
