Before you listen to this BBC podcast, I want to tell you why I love podcasting.

Hi, my name's Tommy Dixon, and I make podcasts for the BBC.

I'm a big fan of stories, always loved a good book.

But when I started commuting for my first job, I discovered podcasts.

I was blown away by how a creative idea and the right mixture of sounds could take you into

a whole new world full of incredible stories. You know, the type that make you go, wow. And that kind of inspired me to

give it a go myself, which to cut a long story short led to a BBC training scheme and a whole

new career giving other people that exact same feeling. So if you want to hear amazing stories

that make you go wow like I did, they're just a tap or click away on BBC Sounds.

BBC Sounds, music, radio podcasts. You're listening to Wednesday's episode of The Archers

from BBC Radio 4. You know, it's not just prep. I need you all through lunch and dinner service. Yeah, don't worry, Fallon. I've stood in for Paula loads of times. Oh, great. What shall I start with? Carats, please. Peel, tops and tails and cut down their length. Right, you are. When's the Wayne due back from the high seas? End of the week. What's going to happen then? What I'd like to happen is for a mum to give him his job back.

Okay.

What does Jolene think about that?

Well, this is it.

She's convinced that what he did was unforgivable.

He was totally out of order.

No two ways about it.

Yeah.

But his food always went down so well.

It did.

And the punters like him as a person. Trouble is, if they know for sure he ain't coming back,

they might start eating somewhere else.
