Right to abortion in Poland, a new constitution in Chile and water on the Moon; you can hear about this and much more (If you are courageous enough to listen to a hilarious Trump ad) on today’s episode of UVA RADIO NEWS with Michela Grasso and Nora O’Dea.

We hope you're hungry. In this Episode Lottie and Marta prepare a poetic meal for you, with an appetiser of metaphors and side salad of groceries. Marta brought along Allen Ginsberg's "A Supermarket in California", a supermarket trip which questions consumerism and philosophises the nuclear family. Lottie offered us Li-Young Lee's "Persimmons", an exploration of identity and cultural assimilation through bright Chinese fruit and childlike innocence. Literally, food for thought.

Maybe we can’t go clubbing for the time being, but this week, Tumbling Dice’s Allison Hatch brings the dance floor to you. For Episode 8, London-based producer and DJ Petals in Sound spices things up with a guest mix of soulful deep house and 4x4 aces. Check out her debut EP, Palace, released last month on Boyanza Records.
