About this episode
Are there some words which should never be broadcast, even if they are used by Bob Dylan in one of his songs?
BBC Radio 6 Music has edited the use of the n-word from his 1976 anti-racist song Hurricane, about the imprisonment of boxer Rubin "Hurricane" Carter.
In Feedback this week, Sir Trevor Phillips and Marverine Cole give contrasting views about the use of this most offensive of words, particularly in music.
And can two non-radio listening music fans be won over by Radio 4's Add to Playlist, hosted by Cerys Matthews and Jeffrey Boakye?
Presenter: Roger Bolton Producer: Kate Dixon Executive Producer: Samir Shah
A Juniper Connect production for BBC Radio 4
