Forty years on, to the day, from when Do They Know It's Christmas? stormed the UK charts and remained at number #1 for five weeks, Bob Geldof is a guest on The Music Show to talk about the song's complicated legacy, how he looks back on Live Aid, and why he thinks pop music doesn't unite us like it used to.

Sydney soul artist CINTA has lived a life of performing and sharing, over-sharing she says, on the streets as an itinerant young busker, touring in the giant 27-piece funk collective The Regime, and now with her own band. Drawing on the best of classic soul and modern groove, her deeply resonant voice rings out on songs of love and betrayal on second album WORTH CONTROL, and she discusses it with producer Niall on this week’s Music Show.
