In our first podcast Martin Bailey reports from a major conference on Nazi loot and tells us about how he himself had a hand in returning a stolen treasure. Then, our host, Ben Luke, takes us to Rachel Whiteread's new survey show at Tate Britain and speaks to the Turner Prize-winning artist about "mummifying the air" through her sculptures.
The podcast is available on our website and all the usual places where you find podcasts including iTunes, Stitcher, Soundcloud and TuneIn.
