Shaun takes a rib-tickling satirical romp through the day's news and events, plus he's joined by former MC5 manager John Sinclair.

Tuesday sees living legend John Sinclair; American political activist, poet & former manager of MC5 join Shaun ahead of his show at the Udderbelly Festival at Southbank Centre this week.

John will be chatting about his lifelong activism and how he became a figurehead for counterculture the world over. From John's recent involvement with Meltdown festival, curated by Massive Attack, and the launch of the Music is Revolution Foundation, to reflecting upon his part in founding the revolutionary White Panther Party, managing the MC5 and sparking the legendary 1971 "John Sinclair Freedom Rally", you'll see why it's not just anybody who could have inspired John Lennon to write a song about him!

All this plus Shaun recaps on Â鶹Éç Radio 6 Music's win at last night's Sony Radio Accademy Awards.
