Stephen Jardine asks if people are less kind than they used to be.

Stephen Jardine marks National Kindness Day by asking if people are less kind than they used to be. Plus he asks when airport security starts to infringe upon human rights.

On National Kindness day we look at the campaign that is hoping to inspire 20,000 tangible acts of kindness from members of the public in 2017. Do we need a campaign to make us more kind - are we any less kind than we used to be?

Ellie Jackson
We speak to the sister of kayaker Dominic Jackson who died at sea last month and hear about her campaign for Personal Location Beacons to help save the lives of others

Piping all over the world
From Mongolia to Monaco - Stephen hears from the man hoping to be the first person to play the bagpipes in the every country in the World.

Single Mums
Scotland currently has over 100,000 single parent families - we ask if there is still a stigma facing single mums?

Airport security
A video of a distressed boy being "patted down" by airport has gone viral on social media we ask when does security start to infringe your human rights?

Mr or Mrs or Ser or Ind....
HSBC has introduced ten new titles to cater for the more complex gender roles we have to deal with - we find out why we need these new titles and what they mean.

How to survive the overcrowded commute
The list of the top ten most overcrowded ten train routes in Scotland has just been released. Stephen finds out what behaviour is never ever acceptable on a busy train and how much personal space most Britons feel comfortable with.

Your Week
Each week we get a unique insight into the life of one of our listeners as they share their audio diary with Stephen. This week it's Islam Awareness Week and we go behind the veil with Muslim mum Samina.
