This week, Lydia Dugdale celebrates All Saints Day by remembering the lost of art dying well; George Pitcher observes that simple calls for peace are often against the grain of power, yet many still yearn for it, even when faced with complexities and impossibilities; Ian Hamlin talks about the merging of stories and their power to inspire and change the world, as he continues on the trail to find out more about his hero.

Listen to a curated selection of the editor's top picks which caught our interest this week. We also release themed boxsets from time to time.
