Jonathan discusses Vince Cable's speech at the Lib Dem Conference with minister Jeremy Browne. 
He also discusses reports that News International is ready to offer a 3 million pound settlement deal to Miller Dowler's family following the hacking scandal.

Jonathan talks about gastric bands - there's been a rise in the number of young people getting them, but is it too radical too early, or a necessary step to beat obesity?

Also as Chris Evans says he's going teetotal Jonathan asks "have you felt the need to cut down how much you drink? Or even cut it out entirely? If so why?"

Jonathan talks to BBC's racing pundit Gary Wiltshire about National Hunt trainer Ginger McCain who's died at the age of 80.

He speaks to two Dragons' Den contestants who sold 79% of their record label to Duncan Bannatyne for 50 grand. 
Also he debates whether grandparents need to take courses to re-teach them how to look after kids? Do you ever lose the knack? Courses are now available - are they a godsend or totally unnecessary?
