Some amazing interviews in this latest edition of Turn Up The Volume! from the Stables in Milton Keynes. Nick chats to comedian, writer and broadcaster Dom Joly about his book, The Conspiracy Tourist, and his show, The Conspiracy Tour, which is coming to the venue in September. Dom is absolutely fascinating in this interview, exploring how conspiracy theories are created and then take hold. Who propagates them? What is going on in their world that means they find comfort in them? Can you feel sympathy for conspiracy theorists? And how does all this translate into a comedy show?!

Danny Beard - winner of Drag Race UK - is a wonderful performer, and also an incedibly articulate voice when speaking about prejudice and homophobia. His wide-ranging interview with Nick is insightful, thought-provoking, funny and moving.

And Nick Cope, former lead singer of the Candyskins, explains how he has become the country's finest exponent of indie music for three year olds, while also reminiscing about the Thames Valley indie music scene he grew up in, spawning bands like Radiohead, Supergrass and Slowdive.
