Summary

Welcome back to the Chris Moyles Show on Radio X Podcast. This week we were joined in the studio by Tim Minchin as well as the boys from Biffy Clyro. Unexpectedly, Chris had rather a nice surprise to tell Dom about!

The legendary Simon, James and Ben from Biffy Clyro came in. They spoke on their upcoming 10th studio album Futique and its accompanying 2026 European tour. The boys also reminisced on performing at this year’s Glastonbury Festival and Simon revealed a very unexpected recent purchase he made.

Tim Minchin, actor, musician and writer (among many other titles!), joined the team in the studio to talk about his new record Tim Minchin Time Machine. The album is a collection of songs he wrote in his 20s before his rise to fame, recorded in a studio for the first time. He also spoke about Matilda The Musical and how unbelievably talented the child actors for the theatre shows are.

It has been Dom’s dream to play The London Palladium for years now and I wonder if Chris’s surprise has anything to do with that? Hmm! You’ll have to listen to find out, won’t you? (Spoiler: it does have something to do with The London Palladium…)

It was a legendary week, listen out for these bangers:

The trust fund box at Wembley
Jordan North asks Chris for help
Dom’s nan’s Vienetta

Enjoy!
