3:10 How to battle burn out and build a better life
It started with a short temper, dreading getting out of bed and feeling absolutely miserable at work. Jonathan Malesic had his dream job as a professor, but burnout forced him to walk away feeling like a failure as an academic and a man. He says gender roles are changing, but men still feel the need to prove their manhood through their work. He asks why too little attention is given to how men experience burnout in an essay for the New York Times and how we all need to find value and meaning in our lives outside of work in his book, The End Of Burnout - Why Work Drains Us and How To Build Better Lives.
3:30 Spoken Feature: BBC Witness
It's 50 years since Italian feminists launched an international campaign for women to be paid for housework. They argued that if home-making stopped, our entire economic system would grind to a halt. Claire Bowes speaks to one of the leaders of "Wages for Housework", about their revolutionary campaign and how its roots go back as far as the 19th century.
