Summary

Today saw the return of Elis and John to their regular two hour slot - meaning you get an extra half hour of #content from the UK’s youngest broadcasters.

On the radio.

0:35.1

Yeah, and if we are showing our parts on the radio.

0:38.8

We have to use some pretty expressive terminology, I think, to be sacked for gross audio indecency.

0:44.3

I'm up for that.

0:45.3

Yeah, I'm up for that, actually.

0:46.7

I was, because of a little playful rhyme that John did on last week's show, I was looking

0:53.3

through off-coms, a tiered system of swear words and it makes for cracking readers.
