Should dads take a bigger role?

from Bump Club Hosted by BBC Radio 5 Live

Edith Bowman and Colin Murray present our weekly show about pregnancy and childbirth. This week, our Bump Club babies start arriving. We catch up with Mercy Koko-Snuggs and her new twins, born by C-section on Tuesday. On Fathers' Day, there's a call for the state to make it easier for Dads to have a bigger role in childcare and parenthood. David Lammy MP says we should have 'a zero tolerance approach to fatherlessness.' We hear calls for better support for expectant Mums with disabilities. And a round up of the week's Bump News - stories about birth and pregnancy - including new tips on how to conceive.

The Late Set WRTI Jazz is a conversation — and that’s what The Late Set is all about. Originated by critic Nate Chinen and broadcaster Greg Bryant, the show now convenes Chinen and Josh Jackson twice a month for perceptive variations on a theme, and their related interview with a special guest. Just like a hang at the end of the gig, in the back of the club, it’s direct, unfiltered and illuminating, revealing the music and its culture in a deeper light.
