Life & Art from FT Weekend - Recorded from both sides of the Atlantic, this new Financial Times podcast reviews the latest in culture and the arts that you can get involved in each weekend, with episodes helpfully out every Friday afternoon.

There’s also an exploration on the issues in the arts and in our culture, starting with a deep dive into how Athens is coping with a huge influx of tourists. FT’s Greece and Cyprus correspondent Eleni Varvitsioti joined host Lilah Raptopoulos to talk about the issue (“you feel like the city is losing its soul,” she says) and offers alternative Greek itineraries that will be just as nice but feature fewer crowds.
