Beth brightens up your Saturday with laughs, anecdotes and an array of great music. This week, she brings some soulful house to the playlist from Martha Wash, as well as some classic soul, hip-hop and much more. Beth honours some of her punk heroes in this week's Matter of Life and Beth, and she's coming armed with another energising Caffeine Kick, featuring music from Prince and an anti-establishment anthem from KRS-One. Get your Saturday going with Beth Ditto on the radio!
