EXTRA: Why Suite (212)?

Why make a political arts programme? In this episode of Suite (212) Extra, hosts Juliet Jacques and Tom Overton discuss today's arts broadcasting and left-wing podcast scenes, and the place of Suite (212) and Resonance 104.4fm within it; how British modernist writers worked with TV and radio; how mainstream media leftists fought to establish a tradition of radical but popular cultural criticism; and plans for future shows, including a call for Gunnersaurus to come on Suite (212).
