    AI continues to find its way into every corner of our lives and even the bank balance of former PM, Rishi Sunak.

    Graham is moved to discuss the strange success of comic writer Tim Key, whom he watched up close on stage in Leeds.

    He follows this up with a new book of history that by being brilliant is missing the point - The Guardian foreign correspondent Jason Burke's new book The Revolutionists - The Story of the Extremists who Hijacked the 1970s.
