Kamal X is an astronaut with a camera, though the missions he flies, the planets he visits, are both familiar and alien. Today he talks of friendship, healing, and his latest book; Black Astronaut, The Stars Belong to the People. From the mailbag, photography as a treatment for stress, anxiety and PTSD, a newfound passion for making pictures, a rumble in the jungle, a postcard from The Fall, graffiti pictures, a trip to London, and quiet Croatian dawns. Also, did you spot the error from last week's show? News about the Scottish retreat in 2024. Since it's the first week of the new month, there's a fresh assignment, set by portrait and fashion photographer Craig Fleming. Links to all stories and guests will be on  the SHOW PAGE as always and my sincere thanks to mpb.com who sponsor this show and the Extra Milers without whom we wouldn't be walking every week.
