Plus, Ziggy Ramo drops by The Music Show
| | Ziggy Ramo's latest project Human? is upending regular releases. It's an album, a book and a related exhibition — and it was all inspired by the musician's 2021 version of Kev Carmody and Paul Kelly's classic From Little Things Big Things Grow. Hear Ziggy talking to The Music Show's Andy Ford about his multi-pronged project, and read about the 'cultural love song' that is Little Things. Should we rethink the way we breed, buy and care for our pets? Experts, like bioethicist Jessica Pierce, think so. On a recent episode of God Forbid, she explained why the popularity of certain breeds is, in her words, "disturbing". (Sorry pug fans.) Read more about this ethical quagmire here. And, don't forget the Big Weekend of Books will take over RN next weekend, June 15 and 16. The full line-up for the annual audio writers' festival has been announced, so check out the schedule here. We're looking forward to hearing from Tim Winton, Amor Towles, Richard Osman, Candice Fox, Charlotte Wood and many more.
