MICHAEL
Hello and a very warm welcome to Five in the Eye. And at least it has got just a little warmer over the past couple of days! This is me - Michael Ohajuru - and you’re listening to episode 0423 of Colourful Radio’s weekly news review show.
PHIL
And joining Michael via Zoom, this is Phil Woodford, revealing that our top story is going to be the offensive comments of the deputy chairman of the Tory Party, Lee Anderson, about asylum seekers. It comes as the first migrants have been accommodated on a floating barge - the now-notorious Bibby Stockholm.
MICHAEL
And for our second story, Time magazine reports on the ways in which teachers are trying to incorporate the use of ChatGPT and other similar AI platforms into the classroom. A realistic response to new technology? Or a slippery slope?
PHIL
Story number three this week is research that suggests Facebook is actually good for your mental health. Can it really be true?
MICHAEL
And what’s our fourth story? Well, the posh sailing set in Cowes on the Isle of Wight has become just a tiny bit more diverse, thanks to some young lads from London.
PHIL
And to wrap up the show at number five, we return to a subject close to our heart. Remember the bears in the Chinese zoo last week, who were alleged to be people in costumes? Now, we learn of a bear on the loose inside a plane.
MICHAEL
I can bear-ly believe it! And that’s this week’s Five in the Eye!
