In this week's Talking Travel, Kieran is joined by James Golding, Chief Guest Experience Officer at Riviera Travel - the UK's leading river cruise operator. They discuss what the intense summer droughts have done to Europe's well-travelled waterways, and how they and others are dealing with the unprecedented challenges the low water levels present.

In this week's Talking Life, Kieran is joined by Eddie Hooker, CEO of mydeposits, one of the UK's best-known tenancy deposit protection brands. They discuss the state of the renting world four months on from the introduction of the landmark Renters' Rights Act, how landlords and tenants have reacted, and the ways that both parties can protect themselves under the new Act by following the letter of the law.

In this week’s Talking Tech, Rory talks about 4K resolution and why companies create TVs and monitors with picture qualities better than what our eyes can perceive.

In this week's Talking Health, Kieran is joined by Katie Goodchild, a Senior Registered Care Manager at Prestige Nursing and Care. They discuss new research suggesting that millions of us could be missing the early warning signs of dementia – mistaking them for a normal part of getting older. They discuss whether or not the public feels they could care for a family member themselves, and where people can go for support and more information.

In this week's Talking Money, Kieran asks what a country's cash really says about it. From the coins of a nation that doesn't officially exist, to a note worth one hundred trillion dollars, he looks at how money quietly records what a society values, fears and does.

In this week’s Talking Travel, Rory talks about the effect travel can have on young children. Whilst we may not remember many of the first holidays our parents or guardians took us on, psychologists reckon they’ve had a profound impact on who we are today. 

In this week's Talking Life, Kieran discusses the slow disappearance of the "third place": the spaces that are neither home nor work. They're closing across Britain, and what is lost is more than economic value. He looks at what we lose when these utilities vanish, and why community is something that must be built on purpose, or quietly allowed to erode.

In this week’s Talking Tech, Rory talks about the shared experience of seeing your phone run out of battery, how to preserve your phone's battery life and the fastest ways to charge your phone. 

In this week's Talking Health, Kieran discusses the health trend sweeping the nation: Health MOTs. These privately funded, full-body health check-ups can bring relief and peace of mind, but they come with some caveats.

While they can offer an early warning opportunity for health problems, they also can lead to false positives and statistically insignificant issues that are sent back to the NHS, putting extra stress on an already overloaded system.

In this week’s Talking Money, Rory talks to Chand Chudasama, the Chairman of Accounting firm Price Bailey, about some research he’s done into what business leaders and MPs think the solutions to the cost-of-living crisis are.
