| 0:00.0 | It's Jordan. It's Chris. And that's Sean Welby. |
| 0:02.7 | From Capital Breakfast after the show show. Our podcast gives you a peek behind the curtain of what really goes on at Capital Breakfast. Yeah, it's what we talk about during the songs, gossip from the A-Lister's. Also, everything we're not allowed to say on the radio without getting cancelled.

| 0:29.8 | Turn ordinary. Into the extraordinary every day with the Lexus LBX. Whilst most SUVs are big and brash, the LBX is quietly bold and confident. Refined luxury crafted into a compact SUV. The Lexus LBX, what car's best small SUV 2024 and 2025. |
| 1:00.5 | This is a global player original podcast. |
| 1:02.2 | My dad says he doesn't like your car, |
| 1:03.8 | thinks it's too small. |
| 1:05.8 | Take itchi. |
| 1:06.5 | Yes! |
| 1:07.6 | Ian would flick me away |
| 1:08.9 | like an irritating woo man. |
| 1:11.9 | Ladies and gentlemen, that was Tessa Dunlop's misogynist moment of the podcast. |
| 1:24.7 | Hello? |
| 1:25.3 | Why can't we have an all-drummingming, heavy-rocking, hair behind the ears, listening attentively, Prime Minister? |
| 1:33.8 | Well, he might do soon. |
| 1:36.5 | But sadly, we won't and we don't because there isn't one waiting in the wings. |
| 1:41.4 | I'm talking about Takeichi. |
| 1:43.7 | Look at Japan, the same size as us, off a big continent they don't really like. Always bumming up to America. They have an horrible political assassination. They also have anemic economy. And bam, bam, thank you very much, ma'am. They have doubled down. They've got two thirds of one house leaning in the right direction. They all believe in their leader, even though she's absolutely ridiculous. You wouldn't like her because she doesn't believe in gay marriage. Meanwhile, there we are. She doesn't believe in gay marriage. Is that a reason for me not to like her? Because you think I only judge people on what their views on gay things are. Well, it's a good start to the pond until you took me out mid-flow. anyway, the bottom line is and we have an anemic economy and anemic prime minister and they're like rats in a sack. I can't vary and I know that all your friends these political types, I can't bear them. They should be getting on and doing their jobs. This psychodrama. It makes me and the rest of the country feel sick. Sick. Oh, three, four, five. Samaritans available to help. |
| 2:39.5 | Oh dear. Your friend was good this morning on the rounds. Jackie. Yeah. She was actually. I mean, |
| 2:44.9 | what a hospital pass to give somebody to go on the media round on a daylight today. But they do it |
| 2:50.3 | because they know that she can play a straight bat. |
| 2:52.4 | She's sort of the Jeffrey Boycott, or as I like to say, the Brandon Lewis of this government. |
