By Agence France-Presse in Moscow | China Daily | Updated: 2016-08-30 07:36

A radio show broadcast live from a Moscow psychiatric hospital every Saturday kicks off with a jokey jingle - "Radio Through the Looking Glass, it's nuts!"

This is a station with a difference: Russia's first to transmit from a psychiatric institution whose presenters are all being treated for mental illness, mostly schizophrenia.

"Hi everyone," quips Daniil, opening the hour-long show in a Homer Simpson T-shirt. "This is Radio Through the Looking Glass with you, as usual. And as usual, we're broadcasting on Saturday direct from the Kashchenko."
