BBC Radio 4 - You and Yours, Cost of motoring, Second jobs, YouTube music

We reveal the most expensive city in Britain to own and run a car.

Consumer news and issues. The rise and rise of what is being called 'the side hustle' - does anybody enjoy having multiple jobs?

We examine the government plan to distribute promised funding for school holiday meals and activities. Is it enough to look after the 4 million children in the UK that the Child Poverty Action Group says live in Poverty. They've had reports of children losing up to half a stone over the summer break because school meals stop.

One in four of us is doing a second, third or even fourth job. Usually it's something completely different to regular work - everything from Ebay selling, dog walking, gardening or crafting can earn you a lot of extra cash if you go about it the right way. We investigate the "side hustle". 

"YouTube Music" has just launched as the newest streaming service. There are currently 159 million users of streaming sites worldwide. Spotify is used by 79 million of them and Apple Music has 42 million users. So what makes YouTube think it can succeed in an already saturated market - we talk to their head of Music Partnerships. 

Presenter: Peter White
Producer: Mike Young.

Intelligent speech, the most insightful journalism, the wittiest comedy, the most fascinating features and the most compelling drama and readings anywhere in UK radio.
