Welcome back to the home of the oxymoron. Evil genius. He asked the newspaper to print his obituary early so he'd enjoy it. That's like hiding at your own funeral. Yeah, a big, great gig. I'm Russell Kane. Join me to weigh in on whether the biggest players in history are more evil or genius. Becoming that rich, I'd say that is some level of genius. It also helps

it. It's a long time ago, right? It's like the podcast version of telling your kids the ice cream

van plays music when it's out of ice cream. Listen to evil genius on BBC Sounds.

Hello, we've got a great line-up on tonight's edition of Free Loving. Sorry, I meant free-thinking.

Freudian slip there, and highly appropriate since this year marks the 100th anniversary

of Sigmund Freud's essay on The Unconscious.

We'll bring together a neuroscientist and a literary critic

to ask whether, a century on, this particular Viennese,

is still creating more of a whirl in the world of science or culture.

And we'll be finding out more about poor theatre.

No, not a revival of 1970s drama, No Sex Please We're British,

a title which Freud would have found fascinating, but an emerging dramatic form

that puts some very unexpected actors on stage.

New generation thinker Naomi Paxton tells us more.

And as part of Radio 3's Northern Light season,

we'll hear about death in a cold climate, a very cold climate indeed.

I try to write in a very not to use many words.

I think that's from the style of the Icelandic sagas.

They don't use it just yet to the point.

And they keep on with the story.

This is always what I'm trying to do.

And also I read lots of poetry, and they inspire you, absolutely.
