Arty Facts
[Repeated from Sunday 1.30pm.] Arty Facts with Master J is a show about working in the arts. Today: Master J is joined by actor, comedian, YouTuber and internet survivor Guy Flores. They take a journey through a career of downs, channel strikes, bans and even "Facebook jail” – where his content has disappeared, his live streams have featured guests who became difficult to control, and his online career has been hit with accusations of shadow banning and algorithmic throttling. Now, on his new channel, Guy Flores Travel, Guy explores places, people and politics, getting locals to show him the less polished truth about where they live. Expect stories, disagreements, explanations, and possibly for Guy to have lost his new channel before this interview ends. For more information visit Master J on Facebook.

Zero Zero Land
A monthly gathering of radio-theatrical experiments, sonic detours and audacious messes, created and performed by New York-based music/theatre performance group Object Collection. This month, Episode 4: 000-Mono. Written by Kara Feely and Travis Just. Recorded live in performance at The Collapsable Hole, New York City, 3 October 2026. Fifteen performers are split into five groups of three and given a series of 10 performance scores, each group with a different order. Every six minutes a bell rings and the performers progress to the next set of scores. Scores range from suggested discussion topics, to graphic material for interpretation, to cut-up scripts from Gogol to Ubu to Star Trek: Deep Space 9. Two audio recordists roam the theatrical space with boom microphones, following their interest and capturing pinpricks of dialogue, conversation, humming, and scrunching of materials. Performed by Robin Margolis, Geo Kester, Aaron Meicht, Chloë Roe, Leah Plante-Wiener, Laia Comas, Thaleia Dasberg, James Oldham, Daniel Allen Nelson, Devon Granmo, John Hastings, Pimprenelle Noël, Avi Glickstein, Alessandro Magania, Marie Christine Katz.

The Workplace
[Repeated from Tuesday 11am.] NND and guests discuss all aspects of work and workplaces. This week: in the penultimate episode of the Black History Month UK 2026 series, NND breaks from the usual interview format to read an essay by journalist, critic and multimedia artist Bidisha, titled A Woman Is Watching: Reflections on Film, When Film Doesn’t Reflect You. The essay is included in the academic book, Black Film British Cinema II, co-edited by Clive Nwonka and Anamik Saha, published in 2021 by Goldsmiths Press. Although Bidisha is of Bengali heritage, this essay is included in this series because it deals with issues that affect Black Britons in the creative industries. Bidisha argues that the mainstream film industry gatekeeps, so that the global majority are either stereotyped, marginalised or excluded. Do you agree with her analysis? More importantly, what are possible solutions? Download select episodes from the podcast and continue the discussion using #workplacennd.

Modulisme
Modulisme (which translates as Modularism) is devoted to out of leftfield modular synthesis. This week: Poborsk is the project of French electronic musician Patrice Curtillat.
