The Young and the Old, part 1. This month, Kevin takes you to Istanbul in the company of his two teenage sons, Marc and Nicolas, who do their best to ensure, as they put it, that the show is not just for “old people”, such as their father. Istanbul has long been one of Kevin’s favorite cities, spanning, as it does, continents and cultures and time itself. The visit was so rich that it has been cut into two seperate shows, this is the first part.

If Monaco conjures up images of expensive cars, classy casinos and monstrous yachts, it’s only because that’s exactly what this tiny country is like. In this episode, Kevin explores Monaco, interviews a number of people in a vain attempt to find an actual citizen, takes his listeners to lunch at the fabled Café de Paris, and visits the marina to gawk at the super-yachts. Lastly, he goes into the casino to try his hand at the betting tables and fantasize about being James Bond.
