Summary

Today’s show is a titanic showdown between two arch-nemeses. It’s Disraeli against Gladstone, it’s David versus Goliath, it’s The Rumble in the Jungle; it’s Elis James facing up to his footballing rival Nish Kumar. Sparks fly, scores are settled, and a listener’s dilemma is answered (sort of) in the process.

It’s also an episode that seeks to teach as well as entertain. And if learning that we should be writing big messages on big melons isn’t enough education for you, we’re not sure what is. Plus, Britain’s youngest broadcasters lament the clothing choices of their fellow young people.

Because Wales had one of the worst football results in the history last night. Oh did they? We failed to beat Gibraltar who are ranked

two hundred and third in the world. What was the score? It was nil-0. We huffed and puffed.

It was actually about 15 minutes from where I was on holiday last week, and we took about a thousand fans to my favorite place on earth and it looked lovely but then my God we were we were out of ideas John couldn't break down a team of postman and the bloke who sells fruit in the market.
