Glastonbury 2010

Instead of the Sunday Service, Jarvis continues 6 Music's last full day of Glastonbury coverage, live from Worthy Farm. He talks to Andrew Kerr, who helped set up the first ever festival at Glastonbury, and poet Ross Sutherland. Murray Lachlan-Young also joins Jarvis for poetry on the themes of Portaloos and thongs.

Father's Day

An appropriate haiku begins this Father's Day show. On This Day, a British garrison was imprisoned in the Black Hole of Calcutta and Samuel Morse patented the telegraph. Raina Lampkins-Fielder reads Sam Shepard's story about a forgetful father, Berlin Wall Piece. Jarvis shares more theories about blancmange, celebrates midsummer, and marks Team Green Britain Bike Week by reading from David Byrne's Bicycle Diaries. Richard Harris declaims a passage by Kahlil Gibran about parenthood - and John Shuttleworth adds his two-penn'orth. And Joe Cocker: Is He Any Good? Birthdays: Johnny Morris (doing animal voices), Anne Murray, Terence Young, Jacques Offenbach, Chet Atkins, Wendy Craig, Kurt Schwitters (reciting his tone poem Ursonate) and Erroll Flynn (gathering lilacs in the spring). Valete: Conrad Schumann (the sound of propaganda being blasted eastwards and westwards at the Berlin Wall).

Andrew WK

Jarvis broadcasts from Paris. On This Day, Martin Luther's wedding annoyed Rome; the Soviet Mir diamond mine opened; the Miranda rights were instated; Pioneer 10 made space history; and Mussolini and Hitler met in Venice. Jarvis speaks to musician Andrew WK. He's in the UK playing bass with Current 93. He explains his motivational speaking — they discuss the odd relationship a performer in the spotlight has with the audience. Jarvis asks about his new direction, piano-led album 55 Cadillac. Andrew says he wanted to reach out to people who don't like his usual work. Plus, Jarvis ponders blancmange and tubular bells. Birthdays: Charles the Bald, Gerald Gardner, Basil Rathbone, Dorothy L Sayers, Heinrich Hoffman (creator of creepy Struwwelpeter), Alan Hansen, Malcolm McDowell, Alan Civil, Dennis Locorriere, WB Yeats (Jarvis reads about his religious theories, followed by crackly archive of Yeats reading The Lake Isle of Innisfree). Valete: Michael Wojas.

Mark Leckey

The 1970 England World Cup squad sing an earnest There'll Always Be an England. Jarvis wonders when, exactly, does summer begin? Then he's joined by Turner Prize-winning artist Mark Leckey. He explains why he thinks rock isn't as energetic and political as in the past: once music was a great way to communicate to the world and now there are many other ways to do that. He also suggests that youth movements develop very differently now that we have the internet, and warns against nostalgia and aligning yourself with an era that never really existed. There's a spoken word piece by rockabillies Heavy Trash, The Pill. Jarvis thinks about the summer again and plays the sound of twittering greenfinches. And Wilco: Are They Any Good? Birthdays: Levi Stubbs and Brenda from Toronto.
