SWP1: Lauren Laverne sounds like Tina Turner

In this month's Sound Women podcast, hosted by Helen Zaltzman:

• Lauren Laverne of BBC 6 Music talks about pseudonyms, combining work and family life, dealing with earworms, and trophies in the toilet;
• Radio 1 Newsbeat reporter Sinead Garvan confesses to on-air innuendo to Ruth Barnes;
• The Student Radio Association's Emma Bradshaw reports from the Student Radio Conference;
• Nicky Birch of Somethin' Else tackles your radio problems;
• and Sound Women founder Maria Williams talks about what made her start this whole shebang.
