Welcome to our World Service taster which this week includes a chat about the life, death and ongoing political impact being made by one of hip hop’s most enduring icons; the author of a brilliant new book "Words for my Comrades: a Political History of Tupac Shakur", Dean Van Nguyen, joined us in studio.
We also previewed the hurling semi finals with Liam Rushe and Jamie Wall, covered the British and Irish Lions tour, the club world cup circus in USA and Ken and Dion Fanning reflected on the sudden and tragic death of Liverpool star Diogo Jota.
On Tuesday night news broke that former Irish Olympic swim coach George Gibney had been arrested in Florida. Mark Horgan, reporter and producer of the award winning Second Captains / BBC Sounds series ‘Where Is George Gibney?”, came in studio to give his reaction. We'd like to thank World Service subscribers again, as, without their support, we wouldn't be able to develop our longer-form work such as ‘Where Is George Gibney?’ and more recently, Stakeknife.
