- This month's episode features a pioneer in drug harm reduction and a thriving UK label.
- The Hour is RA's monthly blend of documentaries, interviews and discussion.
First up this month, Aaron Coultate takes us inside Lobster Theremin, a London-based operation comprising a record shop, distribution business, party series and several labels that have released more than 100 records between them. Speaking to founder Jimmy Asquith, we get a behind-the-scenes look at a thriving operation.
The second half of the podcast sees Will Coldwell travelling to Liverpool to trace the history of the harm reduction movement. He speaks to pioneering researcher Dr. Russell Newcombe whose rave research bureau was advocating a compassionate and educational approach to ecstasy use at night clubs as far back as 1987.
