Radio Reversal will be taking a look-see over the history of the US' second amendment in light of recent controversy over gun laws and mass shootings.

Continuing our discussion on cities, we'll be taking a look at their design.

Radio Reversal talked about the city: what are cities? Why do we live in them? What do they produce? What do they take away? And how can we reimagine the modern city as a social, political and aesthetic institution?

We've done a broad history of parenting and looked at the institution of motherhood and radical mothering. This coming week we'll be having a discussion about fatherhood.

In part II of our series of shows about parenthood, Steph and Ben will talk through a radical history of mothering, feminist critiques of the institution of motherhood, mum blogs, anti-Motherhood and non-mothering, mothers and community activism and all the gooey bits in between.

In this week's show we'll be taking a broad look at parenting, with an eye toward further shows on birth, childhood and parenthood. Join us as we explore parenting around the world, from ye olde times to the helicopter parenting of today.
