Hi, it's Nicola Cochlin. Young people have been making history for years, but we don't often hear about them. My brand new series on BBC Sounds sets out to put this right. In history's youngest heroes, I'll be revealing the fascinating stories of 12 young people who've played a major role in history and who've helped shape our world. Like Audrey Hepburn, Nelson Mandela, Louis Braille and Lady Jane Grey.

History's youngest heroes with me, Nicola Cochlin.

Listen on BBC Sounds.

My name is Annie Matmanis.

And my name is Nick Grimshaw.

How long have we known each other, babe?

Probably 20 years now.

And in that time, we've always worked in and around music, right?

We have.

So it kind of makes sense that we do a podcast about it.

It sounds like he's been 20 years in the making.

It's not Avatar for podcasts, basically.

But it is good.

So we put the world to rights with regards to music. It's all the stuff that you'd want to chat to your mate about over a pint.

Sightracked with us, Annie and Nick.

Listen on BBC Sounds.

Thanks for downloading a good read.

Hello, welcome to a good read where I'm joined today by the journalist Peter Hitchens and by John Finimore, writer, comedian and actor, and almost certainly best known for the radio four sitcom Cabin Pressure. He created it, writes it, and appears in it as Arthur the steward. And in a review last year, Gillian Reynolds, no less,

described it as one of the best written, acted and directed comedies on Anywhere.

John's also the writer and star of the sketch show John Finimore's souvenir programme

and a regular guest on the Now Show and the Unbelievable Truth.
