Oh, hi, Tom Allen here. Just before the episode begins, I wanted to let you know that I've got a new book coming out. It's my first novel, and it's called Common Decency, and you can pre-order it right now from all good retailers.

Hi, guys, Susie here. I've been lucky enough to read it, and it's absolutely bloody brilliant. I'm so proud of him. Pre-order it now.

Thank you.

Hello and welcome to like-minded friends with me Susie Ruffle.

And me, Tom Allen, hello.

Hello, I'm going to apologise early doors.

My voice is quite croaky this morning.

Well, I think the little hay fever is starting for me.

Oh, is it?

I'm all systems go, yeah.

You wait until that pollen tells you who's boss.

Yeah. It really does boss us around.

I was on my knees.

Why?

Screaming at the trees, crying.

I don't know if it was crying.

It tears or if it was just my eyes watering.

I always describe it as like having an itch inside your face that you can scratch yes yes or in your brain or your ear but you there's nothing long enough yes oh yes very nice very night very

but i don't know.

I just have to wait until the pollen that hates me comes out.

Probably on a day when I'm doing something quite nice.

Typical, isn't it?
