Mark Radcliffe presents a feast of top tunes and chats to poet Jackie Kay.

Mark Radcliffe presents solo, with a feast of great music and chat for weekend breakfast.

Today, ahead of National Poetry Day and 6 Music鈥檚 Way With Words season, Mark is joined by poet Jackie Kay. Scotland's Makar - or National Poet - from 2016 to 2021, Jackie discusses her work, her latest collection of poetry and a recent documentary.

Also on the show... a host of quality radio items including 'The Chain' - our world-famous list of over 8000 interconnected songs.

There鈥檚 also the chance to take part in 鈥楾ea Time Theme Time鈥�, guessing the link between three top tunes.

Plus a finely balanced blend of new and old music, setting you up for a Sunday.
