Sarah speaks to this week's host Bronwen Weatherby about what led her the abandon her Essex home and travel west to Bristol and how she's finding the city - and colleagues - so far.
Part-time host Krishan Davis is also back to give you an inside track on a story that involves a satirical Instagram account which documents and celebrates the weird and wonderful goings on on a patch of grass in the city's Stokes Croft area.
Turbo Island is a very public communal area full of daytime drinkers and ravers by night and pictures of the so-called antics taking place are being taken from an upstairs window overlooking the land and posted online. The account has now garnered thousands of followers.
Last but by no means least reporter Alex Wood who has been covering a developing story about the number of people being fined because of driving up a slip road on the M32 meant to be used solely by the Metrobus.
Almost 10,000 people have now been fined for wrongly using the exit, Alex says and he wants to prevent any more confused motorists making the same mistake and getting caught.
